General / Off-Topic Show us your retro gaming hardware/Software etc etc

[Sir.Tj]

So, let's see those gems you have lurking in a cupboard or proudly on display.

Feel free to add a bit of background info, where and when you bought it etc..

My Amiga 1200, part of a collection I have.

Looking forward to seeing what's out there.

 

[Flash_Baggins]

I wish I had stuff like this, but Im too young to have experienced old hardware :c

My school physics department has a BBC Micro though with some ancient software for calculating something or other which they still use, does that count?

 

[OriginalBadBoy]

I would but its all stuck in the retro cupboard at the moment .. I barely have time to play modern games let alone old ones.

It will be quicker to list what i don't have rather than what I do. Effectively i am missing:

Coleco
Spectrum
Saturn
Atari ST

That's pretty much it, i have the rest for the most part. With a healthy amount of games for some. Also have various game & watch, tabletop games (such as Firefox and Scramble). Tomytronic 3D, assorted handhelds (missing ngp and game gear).

Rarest item (as far as i know): Mint Jaguar CD unit
Favourite item: Vectrex, just love the idea of it, still feels unique even now

Also had a couple of arcade cabinets but sold them off a few years are as they were taking up too much space.

 

[Sir.Tj]

Just to add to my list.

I've got the following

2x Amiga 500
1x Amiga 500+
1x Amiga 600
1x Amiga 1200
1x Panasonic 3DO
1x Grandstand Scramble
1x Grandstand Caveman
1x Grandstand Mini munchman handheld
1x Grandstand Crazy Kong handheld

Most have been found at car boot sales over the years...

Would like to add to the collection.

ZX Spectrum 48k
Vectrex
Amiga 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000
Grandstand handheld and Tabletop arcade games
And the Coleco mini arcade games.

 

[Patrick_68000]

I have my ATARI 1024 STF in the box

 

[Flimley]

Sadly I never kept any of my Stone Age computing devices. But here is my short list...
ZX-81 (with 16k ram pack, and stick on button keyboard).... oh yeah !
Commodore VIC20
Spectrum upgraded to 128k

I even learned to program in basic. After these I swapped to console, sega mega drive and so on.

Still working (apart from the 3-inch disk drive) last time I tried it, a few years ago:

Damn that's quite a list.

Very nice collection you've got

 

[Imo]

my Atari Lynx II

This is my Atari Lynx II with the new McWill display.

I got Shadow of the Beast and Lemmings lately!

 

[JonnyC0mbat]

About the only relic I have left is the original box and discs for Monkey Island (with the dial a pirate security protection). Everything else went to the tip when I went to Uni.

I still hold a grudge against my parents for that one.

That's super sweet... Love the bartop arcade machines. Will have to see if anyone is selling a complete do it yourself kit for one of those, including LCD. I do miss my Taito Egret II was a lovely cabinet

 

[CMDR Cosmic Spacehead]

Ahh, I miss my old hardware.

I used to have an Amiga, and my brother had a ZX Spectrum.
Then I got a commodore 64, (twice actually!), then it was mostly consoles.
Master system, mega drive + mega cd + 32X. Then a PlayStation and PC, Dreamcast, Xbox, Xbox 360, and Wii.

I don't have any anymore though, but I do still have some of the games in the attic. And loads and loads of ROMs on my PC.

 

[Deleted member 115407]

Out with the old, in with the new. I purge. I'm a .

(yes, I said that on purpose )

*edit*

Ha - I can't believe that got hit by the filter Well, it rhymed with flosser.

 

[Yaffle]

Sigh.

All I want for Christmas is a Dukla Prague away kit.

I do have subbuteo somewhere...

and a collection of ancient thingamies, which include an A4000 (and a microvitech multiscan monitor!)

 

[Patrick_68000]

In addition to my Atari 1024 STF I also had the Nintendo 64 and PS2

 

[Remus]

I own a megadrive ( genesis ) still working with 5 games for it.
And a super nintendo with 3 games, and a dreamcast with a bunch of games.
I owned a nes when I was but a toddler, unfortunately retrogaming was not a thing back there, and my parents donated it. ( very angry )

 

[Dozer.k.a.o.]

Not sure if it fits to the thread requirement but i built some time ago a mini arcade cabinet for my ipad...

[video=youtube;_woeB27QPxY]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_woeB27QPxY[/video]

It emulates Mame, nintendo 64, and megadrive / saturn, not an original hardware but mybe you find it interesting

 

[Minonian]

The arcade game in the second screen, What is that? i had played a lot with it in my childhood, but i don't remember it can you tell? Ok! have it 1941
