The Facebook Marketplace gods have deemed me worthy today. Just arrived home with this lot after picking it up for an absolute bargain price. No idea if it works yet but it looks like none of it has been tampered with which is a good sign.

So after 5 years the 60" TV I use on my sim rig has died. Beyond economic repair so it's time for an upgrade. Triple 32" screens incoming!
Just got to work out how to best mount them. #simracing #iracing

Greatest console of all time? For me it's the mighty Vectrex.
My favourite item in my collection by far. Here is the one I got for Christmas in 1984 along with some of my games. All thankfully owned since the 80s.

What's your best TV/monitor for a quick bit of retro gaming on original hardware? For me it's the Sony KDL 15G2000. It's a 15" 1024x768 TV. Supports 576p, 576i and 480p.
It has inputs for for RF, composite, component, RGB SCART, S-Video and VGA. It's absolutely superb. #retrogaming #retrocomputing

By 91 things were not too bad for the NES in the UK and it had begun to catch the Master System in sales.
The attempts by Mattel to sell it a number of years earlier were just bizarre. It looked like some weird TV toy thing with a useless robot attached. No wonder no one bought one back then.

I've always loved the many floppy options that emerged for consoles over the decades - not that I've ever owned any! Some of these were never released of course. #retrogaming #retrogamer #sega #nintendo

How long will it take A.I. to draw an image like this even remotely correctly? 1yr? 5yrs? 10yrs? Never?

The oldest 3 consoles in my collection.
Interstate TV Pong (1977)
Philips Videopac G7000 (1978)
Atari VCS 6 switch (1978)
I'm so lucky that these 3 have survived all those house moves and clear-outs, and even stuff like flood damage over the years. And still working like new. #atari #pong #g7000

Who remembers the 1987 Game Over "nipplegate" controversy?
The original box art and magazine covers had shop owners putting stuff on the top shelves alongside the porn mags.
The offending nips were eventually erased from existence!😂 #retrogaming #retrocomputing #zxspectrum #c64

Got to love the appliance of science! This UV box I put together plus some liquid hydrogen peroxide can transform sad looking plastics. #retrocomputing #atari #retrocomputers

Daley Thompson's Decathlon gets all the love but I always felt that Super-Test was the better game. Released on many 8-bit platforms, and for Speccy owners it also had a nicely enhanced 128K version. #retrogames #retrogamer #retrocomputing #zxspectrum

Be great to see the Sam Coupe core working on it and see how it compares to MiSTer.
