I have a Megadrive with a 32X somewhere. And an original Playstation. Plus a GBA. And two Acorn Electrons with a Rombox+. wobble

I'm quite proud of my collection, however, at New Year I was shown a retro room belonging to an acquaintance's brother which puts every other I've ever seen to shame. I'll see if I can get a photo.

Nice stuff guys. I've got a mint Pokemon N64 boxed away with games and a cheap regular N64 that we fetch out for quick Goldeneye blasts.

When I get my own place I'll definitely be setting up a proper space like you guys have. I'll need to source a proper nice, big CRT TV to play them on as I think they look best on them, and light guns of course!

I had an adapted for US SNES cartridges. Yes, I know that the frequency made the US version a bit quicker.

Thanks mate!

I'm going to be spending some time on there.
I'm very rusty and haven't bumped into a Policeman yet.

Yea i know that the NTSC one runs at the proper speed (60hz instead of 50hz same as the US genesis) but i have found a mod that will make the UK SNES run at the proper speed as well plus the UK SNES looks a lot better than the US SNES
