You just need an Oric Atmos, fella.
Then your list is 'complete'!
LOL.
What a list - I thought I had a few machines but that lot takes the biscuit.
How many of them are actually hooked up and operating and...
what does the missus say???!!
All the best - pure genius,

Clearly my MT-80Z. Or more correctly, the manuals for the MT-80Z. Which comprise of an oral (and amazingly accurate and complete) history from a guy who used one in the '80s. And a very kind professor who had used them for his classes and had hard copies that he scanned for me.

... being somewhat humled by most of these collections, my only two pieces of eight are Panzer Dragoon Saga - Sega Saturn... and a homemade Nanocade (as designed by Rasmus Köenig) made to look like the original.... well a rare and nice piece of hardware in my opinion anyway... but there you have it.

Not much.

Although I have quite an extensive collection of, admittedly recent-ish, big box Mac games. I'm sure quite a few people have the big box version (with the flap!) of Deus Ex, but how many people have the Mac version? :lol:

Age of Empires II: Gold Edition
American McGee's Alice
Deus Ex
Diablo II
Driver
Escape from Monkey Island
Quake III: Arena
Sim Theme Park
Sims, The
Star Trek: 25th Anniversary
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Klingon Honor Guard
Star Trek: Voyager - Elite Force
Star Wars: Episode I - Racer

Ok, maybe not that extensive! Sadly, I no longer have a Mac capable of playing any of these! :picard

I have a Pocket PC version of Ultima Underworld signed by Lord British, pretty obscure game format plus signed makes it pretty rare I think

That is so cool, do you have any links/more info to how you made it? What's inside?
 
I was considering a 2 player bartop build at some point.

I used to have a full size MAME cabinet but had to take it apart some time ago as I had no room for it and the CRT died. So instead just use an X-Arcade at the moment, but still have all the arcade controls, i-pac control board etc, and really want to build another full cabinet at some point.

It has been a while since I last posted here.. but just found this thread whilst searching for a recent sale and I just felt like adding one to the list.. rarest thing I "have" owned was a Pilot Build CD32 (Tahoe owns it now) so the rarest now is a Commodore Max Pre-Release Pilot version.. seems to be the same (on the outside) as the sales except for some FCC Non-Commercial markings on it.. inside some chips have stickers on them.. no idea.. great device for in the bookcase.. books don't tumble over because of it :roll:

My rarest system is a W.Industries Virtuality SD 1000. I have one - but also 3 1000 CS too, in partnership with a friend.
They use Amiga 3000`s in the heart of the machine (I need two more to get 2 of the machines working!)

We have LOTS of kit that are considered rare..

Apple IIe (and many other variations)
Commodore SX-64
Commodore Amiga 1000(s - we have 3 or 4 )
Commodore Disk drives - many types
Com PET - again many types
Jupiter Ace & 4000
Sinclair - complete range (bar the C5)
Nintento Virtual Boy

Loads and Loads more more :)
 
This must be the rarest system i have:

My rarest items...

My rarest items...

The most rare items in my collection, same as the OP i have a Sega MultiMega and a Sega Nomad. But on the PC side of things i have an RM Nimbus PC2-186 Dual 720k internal floppy drives, external XW40 40mb winchester hard drive, external 5.25" Floppy drive with colour monitor. I do love my Nimbus :-)
 
Currently, the rarest item in my collection is the Memotech MTX500 I acquired recently. These have never been produced in large quantities and mine's one with Finnish/Swedish keymap. These were very sparse here back then.

I'd say it's a toss-up between my Apple II, NeXt Cube and First gen Osborne 1.

Of course anywhere but North America my A1000s are likely fairly rare.
