    Hardware My retro stuff.

    Hi my name is Ted and I have a problem. Over the last 40 ish years I have collected lots of old computers and consoles.
    In my collection are systems that were mine and my brothers from new,
    NES
    SNES
    AMIGA
    CDTV
    CD 32
    C16
    C64
    Sega game gear.
    Xbox
    Ps1
    Ps2


    Along the way I have picked up many more systems some in need of repair some working.
    I enjoy the challenge of the repairs.

    Made a short list of what I have the other day, probably missed some bits out but here goes.

    Atari 2600 x2 one modded for composite output.
    Spectrums 48k, 48+ and a grey plus 2.
    Many c64s

    1 near mint 1200
    Cdtv
    Cd32
    Nes
    X2 snes
    Super Famicom with a disk drive add on for back ups
    Nintendo 64 with a doctor v64. 😊    X2 game cubes
    X2 dreamcasts
    X3 sega Saturn's
    Several ps1s slim and originals
    Several ps2s slim and original chunkys
    Multiple og xboxes
    Multiple xbox 360 slim and phat, never got an e version
    X3 xbox ones original.
    X2 ps3 s
    X2 wiis

    Game boy
    Sega game gear
    Several mega drives 1 and 2 and a mk2 cd rom
    Nintendo ds
    Sony pop
    Panasonic 3do.
    An old area 51 arcade cab i mounted some joysticks on the front and filled it with mame, using a new old stock Wells gardner 26" crt.

    A few commodore crt monitors.

    Just waiting on the kids to move out before I get any more, running out of room, although with the price as things are, systems don't come along very often at a reasonable price.

    I'll post some pictures up soon,20220501_103515.jpg it's a pita on my phone.

    sold my smallish collection off about 10 years back when I went though a 'fuck it' phase. Kinda regret it now but they'd still be rattling about collecting dust etc.

    Really nice collection though mate, prices are going up all the time so its a good time to have a collection and a bad time to want one.

    Still trying to work on the wife to let me get an arcade machine, keep showing her the Astro city style machines but for some reason she'd rather get a new washer.

    Nice collection there!
    I've got a fair bit of kit myself, but still trying to finish my home office / cave that I started during the first lockdown.
    I'll post some pics once I get my shit together.
