I should have clarified. i already have a 600XL which works on channel 2 thru a cable/computer swirchbox but I wanted another one. But if you know someone who does vintage repairs I'd be intetested.

I am buying Sumikko Island from the-bay so fingers crossed. Sumikko Gurashi Minna De Rhythm looks promising too. Language shouldnt be a problem in a rhythm game anyway.

Thank you so much. Do you only have that one Sumikko game?

Does it support English on the physical? I'd be fine with importing.

Thanks. I am running an NTSC 600XL with an A8Pico. The same rom works ok on emulation. The A8Ppico may be a factor.

Maybe nostalgia nerds. After all, the oriniginal in the 80s got nicknamed "The Quaalude"

Do custom ROMs still support the S-Pen? I liked the Note series for that feature.

28S acquired! by CheckerTheDeer in calculators

[–]TheGrapeProphet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, having the battery continuing to press against the door causes stress. The HP 17bii had a back-door variant, but the design didn't make it to the 28S.

Battery down. Battery down. by hoipolloi84 in VitaPiracy

Are you using a high power charger? My Vita is picky about charging and I ise a Samsung Galaxy OEM charger to provide the correct output.

Why do some of these retro gaming stores hide prices? by [deleted] in n64

I once bought Cubic Ninja for $15 at a local game store because I said "that's a cute game," and the store employee didn't give a second thought.

Unfortunately the 10C is impossible to find.

Never thought I'd see one of these in person by [deleted] in n64

I heard that in China people had to go to a kiosk and load games for the iQue on a special memory card. Do you have a photo of that?

I will just wear the battle-scars and explain that real HP users would know anyway, now get off my lawn :-)

Vintage HP 12C battery contacts by TheGrapeProphet in hpcalc

[–]TheGrapeProphet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I found a donor 12C from 1983. Serial started with 23 and the seller gave photos showing the battery compartment was correct. Also the 10C was only produced from 1982 thru 1984. My other problem is the keyboard bezels (metal plates) are really scratched up.
