I saw a copy of Rendering Ranger R2 in there... :o

 

If You look closely, there are two copies of R². Because I am one of the idiots who need to have two, cause I am a real showoff. ;) To be honest, it´s one of my absolute all time favorite games :arrow: Turrican IV.

 

:-o :thumbsup: :-D

I didn't know there were enough copies for someone to own two of them...

 

Your collection is the end-all, be-all of retro gaming. Just saying... Or at least in Europe. :D

Thanks, but I am far, faaaaaaar away from that condition. I´ve seen four other collections of people in my area (40 km radius) which are like ... imagine ... 2 of them are working for computer/videogame magazines. Each of those collections is like Nooner242s´ collection + my collection + extra goodies. From one of them I bought the Nintendo display case and he had nearly all of his stuff in such display cases. The third collection was a NeoGeo only collection. Bought some MVS carts from that guy years ago and had a glimpse look at his stuff ... mindboggling. The fourth collection isn´t really a collection. It´s what´s left over from a shop of a friend of mine who had been selling video- & computergames since the early 1980s. He closed his shop four years ago and still has all that stuff at home but doesn´t wanna sell it. He says he has no time to sell it cause he´s gotta work and if there´s free time he´s too lazy to sell it and prefers to play some of that games. Because as long as he sold that stuff he never had the time to play that games cause mr.pastglory was always hanging around in his shop, keeping him busy. Reminds me of great times ... before internet auctions. I wonder if someone else from Europe remembers his mailorder shop.

 

cya out there,

What's up with that C64 with the knobs? Whatever it is, I want one. :)

 

The 64s with the knobs. The white one (breadbin form, inside a C64II mainboard) and the black one (C64II, sliders instead of knobs). Both had been modified by me years ago for use with Prophet 64, Cynthcart and MSSIAH. The white one had, as already mentioned, a C64 II mainboard, SID2SID with 2x SID 6581R5, 4 x Potentiometers (could be switched off) and a simple noise reduction mod.

The label with the serial number said 'Made in W.-Germany', that's why I decided to use this casing. The wood-decor is not a foil, it's made of colour-coatet aluminium in this wood-finish style. I gave it to a friend last year as a present, together with a MSSIAH card and a Cynthcart, so he can have some fun with it.

 

The black one with the C64II case and the sliders is the same mod without SID2SID. I decided to rather build 2 x SammichSID MIDIBox synths because they are more practical, less noisy and need less space. Therefore I needed all SIDs I had, that's why there's no more SID in the black one. It's a 'Made in Hong Kong' C64.

 

The grey C64 (breadbin form) is still original and will never be modified. It's a 'Made in England' C64 with a 8580 SID. By the way the only C64 I own wich cooperates with the Steinberg interface.

There would be more I could show, but that's stuff which is not assorted yet, packed into boxes, stored in my kitchen ... magazines, spare parts, etc.

 

So far our little excursion to Mr.PastGlorys' media bunker. I hope it wasn't too boring or disappointing.

 

cya out there,
