Brand spanking new Amiga 1200. Never used. Everything still sealed up inside. Nice bonus is that it arrived in the origional shipping box.

Everyone who has pre-ordered so far will get a free upgrade to hardback (if they want) as a way of saying "Thanks". (note: if you ordered more than one, only one of them will be upgraded). I'm not sure what the exact upgrade price will be for everyone else, but I expect it to be of the order of a t...

Just ordered mine ! Will I get a chance to upgrade to the hard back or am I too late ? Congratulations on becoming a Dad :-) It really is thye most amazing thing that will happen to you in your lifetime. My only advice. Make the most of it while you can !! My little girl is now nearly 4. Those 4 yea...

Very nice boxed Vectrex. Box has both polys and origional poly bag. Also has warranty and bag. Missing manual but I'm keeping my eyes peeled Console is pretty much unmarked.

I think i'll put the cash towards an 800XL or even an old 800.

Cheers

Well on Saturday I finally added an Atari 7800 to my growing collection. What a bargain it was ! £20 bought me a brand new never used console with everything complete including 11 sealed games. Now I'm after a 5200. Well to be honest I've been looking off and on for the past 6 months with no luck. ...

Whay ! Great news. Glad I mentioned it then :-) Remember their were some great adventure games on the beeb. Level9 Some of the Acornsoft adventures. Philosaphers Quest, Castle of Riddles. Twin Kingdom Valley Starship Command was great. Remember 'frak!' ? Remember what happened if you delved a bit de...

Hi guys. Every month I eagerly await my retroGamer in the hope that I will see a BBC gracing the cover. It's then that I will know that their will be an excellent feature on this trusty old workhorse. The Beeb was my first computer and considering how popular it was RG seems to be ignoring it. I've ...
