Nice one Keropi! I have been spending a lot of time looking at similar devices recently and have made a little investment!! I will pop some pictures up when it arrives :-) :thumbsup:
Got in another haul on Sunday, going through all of it today! I gave the guy $50 for delivery of it.
So far found:
Hardware:
Boxed stock Commodore A1200 with 80 meg drive- box is "generic" White/blue Commodore box (rough shape) -looks like just the "A1200 manual" is missing, all 3.0 disks, all other books, mouse there. nothing in expansion bay. Nice and white
Boxed Stock A500, has 2 1.2 disks (I believe on 2 disks were with 1.2) all manuals there, a tad yellowed, but not bad. Nothing in expansion bay.
Boxed Commodore branded 1084 monitor (white "generic" commodore box-good shape)
Yellowed Commodore C64C- just loose, no PS
3 Commodore 1541 drives- 1 regular, 2 1541C, 1 yellowed (manuals with- no boxes)
1 GVP DSS8+ with book disks etc.
1 generic External Amiga floppy.
6 assorted Joysticks
Software:
Besides about 500 Amiga floppies (including at least 3 BBS packages), I have found 4 Vic 2o carts, 3 Vic 20 Cassettes, another 100 or so C64 floppies (including a few BBS packages)
Books and boxed games:
A bunch of assorted hardware manuals, Sim City for the Amiga, Wayne Gret. hockey, TV sports football, Tennis Cup.
I still have a few more boxes to go through, but looks like 50 DEMO disks (spaceballs etc)
Thanks! Even though it does not come with a case, it will fit in a standard SEGA Genesis cartridge. I'm going to look through the games I have and find the least valuable one to cannibalize for its case. :twisted:Quote:

@Keropi
That's wonderful! You'll have to let us know what you think of the cart. I love mine!
@GazCBM
Can't wait to see what you bought. :D I've been trying to get flash carts for all my retro gaming systems. I really want one for the N64.
@quarkx
Wow! That's quite a haul. I might be interested in getting some of that BBS software from you if it is still readable. I'm thinking of running a BBS on my Amiga again for fun. :D

There's still quite a lot of BBS software available on Aminet. I used TronBBS (now to be found as TrionBBS) in the past - it's a shareware package very much like and compatible with Xenolink. It's written by a Dutch guy who still does some Amiga work - maybe you can still obtain a keyfile from him!Quote:

Take care,

Sonic & Knuckles brings up that screen if you plug a non-Sonic game into the pass-thru connector on the cartridge (It's designed for Sonic 2 & Sonic 3 to plug in to it)Quote:

Thanks AndyLandy! I actually figured out from the video that it was a pass-through cartridge like you said. The sad thing is that I think I actually have the Sonic and Knuckles cartridge so I should have known that! LOL!
I didn't know about the special stage though. I wonder if I can use the pass-through cartridge with the Everdrive-MD... Could be a neat experiment. :D

@Heather:
Glad to see you got it working. I wonder if this is a better investment than the Megacart. The Megacart costs the same.
@Keropi:
Congrats on getting the SNES Powerpak. I absolutely love both of my Powerpaks (I have the NES one too). I hope RetroUSB makes more flash carts in the future.
Sounds absolutely familiar, I loved doorgames as well. Too bad the phonecompany loved them as well - I've had quite some spicy phonebills back in those days....Quote:
