Just bought a Mattel Hyperscan. Not sure if that's something to be thrilled about though :D

Hey! #7 on the all time list is not too shabby...! :lol:

In all honesty, I had to check first to make sure that my Aquarius didn't have you beat. :)
 
1581 arrived from Gaz along with the C64nic+ so she is finally online :D

and a lovely NOS 128D keyboard from my friend in France to replace my old yellow peril so the whole machine is now as creamy beige as the day it rolled out of the factory :-)

Finally got a chance to set up my Roland MT-32 and SC-55 so decided to try the Roland MT-32 out with the Atari ST. It's a real shame more games didn't support it despite having the MIDI ports built in. Anyone know how to get MIDI working on Bomb Jack as I hear it supports it. Can't wait to get my x68000 back from Bas to try the MIDI on that :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
Internet's been down for most of the day so, I finally put one of my PS1's in the blue case BluesBrothers sent to me 6 months ago??? and diagnosed and fixed my original PS1 from 1996... knowing TC must be rubbing off on me. Happy Days!!! :lol:

I picked up one of the New Nintendo 3DS consoles. The system is great but I was unimpressed with what came with the system. You get the console, the box, a simple getting started pamphlet, and a pack of AR cards.

The eye tracking for the 3D works extremely well and it may allow me to play games in 3D without getting sick. :)

From Japan, I got this nice Nec PC Engine Core Grafx with PSU, controller, video cable and three games. Used my small LCD display to test it. Can't wait to get to do an RGB cable for it. :)

@protek - Sweet!

Thanks! :) The small LCD complements the console quite nicely. The living room telly wouldn't play ball with the console even though it is NTSC compliant, so I went and connected it to this one. It's meant for reverse cameras but it works also with retro gear, although it's somewhat picky about the source. With the PC Engine it worked flawlessly.
 
I saw Sunstorm (background) in Toys R Us while over in the UK but couldn't fit it in my bag (and we don't have any near by if at all in Ireland(?)) so I had to wait until someone came over to visit :lol:

Nice! :) I really like the new, smaller Masterpieces. I have the reissue of MP-10 Convoy on pre-order.
 
Nice. If you don't have one i'd seriously recommend you get a Turbo Everdrive for it.

Regarding RGB, if you don't care for ever using a CDROM you can get the "French" RGB box thingy that fits at the back. Thats what I use but it was very expensive.

You mean this? I'm afraid that's too steep for me at the moment. I'll probably go with the simple Mmmonkey mod at first and look into the more sophisticated mods later. The Turbo Everdrive will be on my shopping list at some point.

Yes that's the one.

You're right buddy it is, it does however make it easier to see the screen and also shields it from sunlight. I don't play the Game Gear for too long cause it hurts my eyes after a little while but while testing this device i sat and played through Alex Kidd in Miracle World to completion :)
