I just don't want to get rid of my first computer! Disgraceful way to treat your first love. Although, I trod on mine and killed it. Then, after six years, it healed. Then the keyboard died a few years later, and I pretty much killed it for good trying to fix it, so it received a respectful burial in the bin. Still the greatest computer ever made by Man.

Scott Steiner Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 A NES, SNES and N64. Have been buying games lately off ebay for nostalgia but I'm not a actual collector or anything. Highly enjoying reliving my youth by playing the old WCW and WWF THQ N64 games. Outstanding gameplay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted December 7, 2021 Author Share Posted December 7, 2021 I did a u-turn since last posting on this thread and have been collecting all the old machines I had before. I now have C16 C64 Amiga Dreamcast PS One PS2 Xbox Gamecube 360 Wii Wii U PS4 Switch I just need an N64 to complete my "used to own" collection before moving on to buying other consoles. I've also started collecting other game/movie/tv related merch/tatt, including the Fallout 4 pipboy special edition that arrived yesterday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorongil Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 This looks great but I don’t understand why the keyboard is non-functional.

Don't think I've ever played one.Cheers The gamecube is very nintendo-ie, if you know what I mean but there are some really good games. To be fair, most have been remade or surpassed by sequels. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oceanlineayr Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Currently have a PS4 and a Gaming Laptop (no space for a desktop at the moment) Also have a PS2 slim a friend gave me, great for playing the classic PS2 Era Pro Evo on. Still have my Nintendo DS Lite I traded my old DS in for way back in 2007. Charged up after around 6 years of inactivity as if it was new. It's a great wee handheld, Advance Wars dual strike is still one of the most satisfying turn-based strategies I've ever played. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al B Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I still have my old SNES kicking around somewhere. Is it easy enough to get an adapter or cable that will connect it to a modern telly? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Username With Mo In It Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Still have my Sinclair Spectrum 48K in the loft. It has a curved dent in the keyboard overlay between the N & M keys where I used to roll a golfball to set sprint world records in Daley Thomson's Decathlon! I would love to try and get it going again but I would have to find cabling & a cassette deck from somewhere. I also have an Amiga 500 with a hard drive fitted and a few games on floppy disk. Managed to start it up recently but couldn't do anything with it as the mouse wouldn't work. I was worth it though just to hear that sound from the hard disk. Also have the full range of consoles from PS1 to PS4, XBox to XBox One, and a Wii with one of those Wii fit boards. Just wish I could get my hands on a Series X though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted January 18, 2022 Author Share Posted January 18, 2022 I still have my old SNES kicking around somewhere. Is it easy enough to get an adapter or cable that will connect it to a modern telly?Shouldn't be too difficult. If it's the old ariel connection then most tvs still have those. Some still have component/rgb too.If it's scart you can get a converter to hdmi. You can also get adapters for rgb if you're tv doesn't have connections.The only thing I haven't been able to find is a converter from ariel to hdmi. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
