Games for adults. Lol

Another great purchase Neil. I can always hear those engines scream in that game.

What's the other disc? A savedisk?

As you can see I'm trying to collect the games I remember playing, the ones I loved when I was growing up. Rather than every damn game

Never seen any HD-DVD. How does it compare to DVD and bluray?

The image link is not inserted correctly? Can't seem to click it on mobile via Tapatalk.

HD-DVD is as good as BluRay and the format doesnt have nasties like region coding and slow buggy Java VM's running everything. Unfortunately BluRay won the HD disc war.

I've just received my Ubuntu phone and tomorrow I get to open an A1200 that wifey got fir my birthday! I wont have CRT to connect it too until next week though and it came from overseas so I don't know if it survived the journey. The seller mentioned receiving things broken from overseas himself and I'm paranoid that he's managing my expectations accordingly.

Wish me luck!

"What did you buy today"
That's a good question! I bought one of these on ebay. thinking it was a VGA adapter, but it didn't take too long to figure out I won't be connecting it to my monitor

So I'll ask the rest of you, what did I buy today??

Whoops The auction title is Amiga 25 Pin Adapter. When I googled for VGA adapter I found a page saying that this is essentially what a VGA adapter is. Guess I should stick to Amiga Kit since I clearly have no clue what I am doing!

Reproduction Minestorm overlay for the vectrex...been trying to get one for awhile but as everyone went nuts on the prices for old ones.

A considerably cheaper repro was the way to go.
