some more, this time from April... (starting to think my laptop was broken for longer than i thought) my previous copy of Indy 500 was one i'd built myself with a donor board and an eprom, both the carts in the pic were being sold by the same dude at a retro game market, i was indecisive about which i wanted, they were both just a couple of quid each, the dude said "just take em both for 3 quid" which i thought was reasonable in case one was fubar'd...

Blimey iddod ! Is there any system you don’t collect for ?!
Nice to see a Pocketeer in there too. I need to dig my collection out. Phil NSG has been reviewing a few recently and it reminded me of them.

i don't collect, i acquire... i don't go out of my way for disk based media, but anything else is fair game for me to play... (sports games tend to be bought as donors for cartridge hacks, apart from golf games, those get played... love me some video golf i does)

quick trip to a couple of car boot sales this morning and came home with these... could have got a bunch more stuff, but my budget dictated otherwise... shame cos i'm pretty sure i could have found a use for 7 super famicom controllers...

Seeing your the pictures of the old car boot pickups, really makes me miss living in a place that has those. Have to travel like 3 hours to get to good ones. Back to relying on the internet and eBay to get my treasures.

what you ought to do is organise a local one, that way you'd also get first dibs too

Great pickups Phil ! Seems like we're in a similar position regarding our 2600 collections. I'm approaching 400 carts and only have a few left that I can get within my price range. With the price of eBay shipping these days it's a case of playing the waiting game for good offers to appear.
Did have a new cart arrive though. Stargate in sealed (crushed) box. And......I opened it ! Shock horror !

Look what else arrived !!!!
No mug yet. Was hoping for a better 'jungle-like' background but my mother-in-law is not the best photographer I lost patience after about 10 tries
Mini-strudders is not so 'mini' anymore. He's almost as tall as his mother !
