Something new for my Handheld Console Collection



Game inside is Donkey Kong Country

Street Fighter Alpha is actually a pretty decent port!

1520 plotter, so I finally completed my rainbow set-up. Look:



Commodore 1520 plotter
Commodore 1701 monitor
Commodore 64-I
Commodore 1541
Commodore 1341 joystick
original breadbin hard dustcover
and 3rd party datasette

I have of course original C2N CBM datasette as well, but I prefer this one because of its design.

Lovely,

Just imagine how much this would have cost if you'd had bought it all together when they were first released.

[Predseda]

It is far beyond my imagination.

When you say plotter, was it thermal or dot-matrix so not a cad style pen plotter?

[Predseda]

1520 plotter had four color pens. Unfortunatelly they are missing in my device, otherwise fully operable.

Got an FMV unit for my Philips CDi, now I can watch films in worse quality than I can download them

But of course now I can play FMV capable Games, I have Mad Dog McCree on the way (Thanks prowler!) and I just bought the Peacekeeper Revolver, I'm reliably informed it works on Projectors and even flat screen TV's





Oh and I got an RGB-Scart lead for newly modded Master System II - Thanks ScrappySphinx!







Awesome picture quality

Yep, it sure is!

When Channel 5 was rolled out and they sent out technicians to retune everyone's video recorders' UHF modulator to avoid interference from the new channel, I asked the guy to retune my CDi player as well, which he did.

When he'd finished, he commented on what a fantastic picture it produced - actually the best he'd ever seen - and that was via the RF lead!

Oh nice, I always wanted a flatbed plotter back in the 90's

[fitzsteve]

So this little fella arrived today courtesy of eBay:



I've got it hooked up to my Projector:



Good clear picture, very impressed only through composite! I also had to buy the FMV cartridge to play the Game. The acting is just as bad as I remember lol!



I'm having some minor issues with Gun calibration maybe due to the huge size of the display and my viewing angle due to having the projector behind me I have to sit/stand to the right or left.



Otherwise I'm having as much fun as I had back in the day playing in the arcades and I don't have to keep sinking £1 coins into it!!!

I hope you enjoy the Video

ps. Thanks again Prowler for the Game, I'm struggling a little with Mad Dog I as the Gun is badly off to the left and I cant calibrate to compensate as you can have the crosshair in MDII I can play that a little easier. I'm sure I'll figure out the calibration issue though!

You're welcome, mate!

Seeing you running it has made me want to play mine again. Hehe, I don't have any calibration issues here, as I play the game using a CDi mouse!

With that I can be a real sharpshooter when I get used to the acceleration.

Er... don't mean to be picky but did you mean a usb to ethernet adaptor?

Technically, we're both correct. But yes

You can tell I was bored lol

Today I bought an Amiga keyboard pcb for the square amiga LEDs for my PC. They are really hard to find so I hope they connect to my PC without needing any resistors.

and a Second Printer Cartridge.
