Managed to pick up all the PS2 releases - Goldeneye: Rogue Agent Everything or Nothing Nightfire Agent Under Fire Quantum of Solice From Russia with Love I know some of which are considered a bit pants but I couldn't help collecting a full set. I'm most looking forward to FRWL as I understand is Sea...

I have two on order from different suppliers, so all being well I'll at least end up with one! I was also one of the lucky ones that managed to snag a NES mini. The success of the original mini may have caught Nintendo on the hop, but they know exactly what they are doing with regards to the launch ...

Just a quick update - The PS1 and games as well as the SP and games have gone and I've finally picked up a PS2! I still have the C64 and Xbox however for trading.

Another vote for scrolling beat 'em ups here - Streets Of Rage, Final Fight and Golden Axe are just a few.

What about MAME? There's an absolute ton of co-op arcade games to mess around with - ideal if your kids are like mine and have the attention spans of goldfish!

Finally got round to my Commodore stuff, but didnt get round to testing it. Curse these wall mounted TVs! http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy210/Aled_Grav/20170803_204720_zpsap7mqd6v.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy210/Aled_Grav/20170803_204320_zpspcnqdkht.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/...

Thanks Black Ridge.

I dont have the foggiest about the PS2 if I'm honest but I am fond of driving games, 1st person shooters and the like. In the meantime I will update my post with an accurate listing of all things commodore related.

I play the Speccy via emulation these days, rather than going round my mates house! And I'm still trying to complete Booty for the first time!

Hi all, Here's a list of bits and bobs I'm looking at trading. Ideally I would love a PS2 with some games and joypads etc Or some Gamecube controllers, games etc (I can use them with my Wii) Or Wii/PS3 stuff. Gameboy Advance SP and some games (loose) - Not in the best of nick, not even sure if it wo...

Silkworm (C64 Version) - Number of levels completed using the Jeep. I'd always pick the jeep in two player games even though most people would pick the chopper. I just liked extra game-play mechanic of aiming the gun on the jeep and got rather good at it. Trailblazer (C16 Version) - Number of levels...

The SNES has a fantastic back catalogue, one of the best of any console. So the selection of games for the SNES Mini was always going to be a talking point. Even though the 20 (and Starfox 2) picked are a great range of games, with quite a variety, but I’m sure every fan of the console has their own...

Managed to get a preorder today at Game, still had two left as well so I'm well happy. Not sure why they are charging £79.99 tho as I thought the rrp is £69.99

I'm in a similar boat - My pre-order from Nintnedo uk is £69.99, while the pre-order from Smyths is £79.99

Some more info and photos of the Mini Snes (including joypad connections)

Freeview and Netflix here. But I dont use a lot of either. They tend to be on in the background most of the time.

While we have all experienced loading screens during a particular game, nothing was worse than loading a game on an 8 bit machine by tape only to come across a multi-loading game. It was understandable on why some games required it - Games were becoming more and more complex and required far more me...

I still have a purge in CEX now and again on DVDs - Normally films I've enjoyed and don't mind paying a quid for. They tend to be films I've long forgotten about until I've seen them on the shelf.
