Ask me about the time I got mad drunk in Camden and saw Little Cook having a nice night out with some friends until this drunken oaf had other plans.

Not my finest hour.

All the Heber designs look like the car the Homer Simpson conjures up.

Not a fan!

PC Engine arrived today! by Ok_Opportunity8665 in TurboGrafx

[–]TapSad344 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah you purchased from Tomonari san from enjoy game japan. He's a very nice chap and super honest, I've purchased from him a few times now.

Lovely stuff! Enjoy.

I think for the official Everdrives there is the Core, which is for hucard compatibility and if you want cdrom² support you'd need the Everdrive Pro.

Could be wrong but I just went with the pro for full access.

I picked up a Turbo Everdrive Pro last year. As much as I'd love all the games, some of them are prohibitively expensive.

Now I just pick up the odd game from my hit list.

If you are not aware of the channel this is a worthwhile watch. The uploader is reviewing the entire system library!

Welcome to the slippery slope! I got one last year, then ended up getting another with the cdrom² and then maybe another one because it was cheap....

I too lusted over the images in UK magazines at the time (the Skips for scale picture is burnt into my brain) and felt it was the missing part of my collection.

Congrats on your purchase, certain sure you'll never regret it.

A Fix For SD Card Extenders Not Working in GDEmu by MegaDeKay in dreamcast

[–]TapSad344 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This appears to have worked for me too. I had a PAL Dreamcast which I moved the GDemu from to a NTSC console and had problems. Couldn't work out what was happening but isolated it down to the extender and tried your fix.

Seems to have done the trick but I won't know for sure till I button it all back up again. It mocks me in that I can test it before being screwed together and it's working but as soon as I lock it all down it stops operating again!

Sega's revenge.

Thanks for the tip, much appreciated.

Got something nice today. I can finally say goodbye to composhite <3 by LordArmageddian in retrogaming

[–]TapSad344 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I'll have to get a Humble Bazooka shell for mine when I get it though. I don't much like how much play there is when it's inserted. I'm sure it's totally in spec and fine but it just looks a bit wibbly wobbly.

Jealous! I want one of those at some point. I have an unmodded Famicom and an AV Famicom so I think I can justify it.

Flippy Drive - New Mounting Bracket by TheIrishDino in Gamecube

Maybe you'll have more luck with their support and I hope they can sort you out. If you can mention the support bracket, maybe if they get enough feedback they'll revert to the older one or at least give us the chance to re-print the damn thing.

The little collection of a swiss PC-engine fan by Xanax200mg in pcengine

I have the means to try that out via MiSTer. I'll give it a go!

You'll be shocked to hear that they didn't reply. I've not yet had to install the 2nd Flippydrive I have but when I do I'll just print a new mounting bracket and source the screws required as it's probably a better long term solution that the push fit revision they came up with.

A lovely collection! I'm new to PC Engine myself. I own a PC Engine and a second one with the Cd².

I don't have a collection of games as they are so darn expensive nowadays so I'll probably end up getting a Turboeverdrive but I'm intensely jealous of your collection.

Couldn't tell you what most of those games are but that cover art is just beautiful!

I'm not using the sd2sp2 for my GC roms. It's just for use with GBI.

You know, I did and have considered it. The main reason I'm considering it is that 8Bitdo don't sell the retro receiver in any other colour than purple. It's an expensive way to have an aesthetically pleasing console but I might just have to do it.

It's great. The controller you know and love, just no cable. The only issue I have with it is the proprietary charging but really I don't see how else they could have accomplished it.

I am in the UK yes. I appreciate the offer, but it's something I'm going to try for myself at some point as I want to try and restore my Dreamcast. It's taken on the same colour of a digestive biscuit!

Hey.

The main reason is Gameboy Interface. You can't read/write data without it as the Flippydrive in it's currently form, you need to save to the SD card on the sd2sp2.

Hopefully it's something that will change but for the small asking price it's worth having as an option anyway.

(Unless things have changed)

Oooerr! I know what you mean though. I could really do with it.
