Hello,
I hope it is the right section where to share my new jewel... An almost brand new ?? Amiga CD32!

I just recorded a quick video for the unboxing, you can look at here:

SX32 MK1 is nice. They used to be expensive but the TF328 has brought prices down.

waste of money
to play cd32 games is far better the use of winuae , far better image in the monitor, no lens issues due u will use cd images and then you can playthe games using a good pad like the xbox 360/one pad instead those lame cd32 pads

You don't understand what it means to be a collector rather than JUST a gamer. This user wanted to own one. Now they do. Kudos to them.

Exactly this.

I could easily play any amiga games I wanted on WINUAE and even set up to play with original joysticks, but I get enjoyment from using original hardware (and the fun and games that go with setting it up).
I assume the OP is the same.

Likewise, CD32 with a TF330, big games image on SD, KTRL pad, CRT (best bit!).

360/One dpads are horrific, almost as terrible as the original CD32 ones!

Winuae is great though and obviously a lot cheaper

I understand yes because I already got over that part of my life as a collector
and was a part of my life without sense and very stupid
you will only understand once you get over it

I use emulation but i really don't think collectors are stupid

The Bromigo! Is already living the life by getting hold of what they want. I recently bought a CD32 myself, yet to get it setup and running due to other stuff. Got a MK3 A4KD/CD32 flicker fixer. Now deciding wether to fit this to the A4K or the CD32. Decisions decisions.

Each to their own Mang!
