Nice, would love one of these for the arcade conversions but you never see them for sale. Have they all been binned? -
I was watching that one finish up today too...
The buyer's "about me" page definitely struck a chord, the lucky git ;pComment

the buyer is a really nice guy from the NetherlandsOriginally posted by fuse
Niels is his name if i remember correctly - met him over at the neo forums a few years backComment

The seller is a pretty cool guy too his site the Japanese Computer Emulation Centre http://www.jcec.co.uk/ pretty much kick started my whole interest in japanese "computing" that went into some sick depths of emulation and is one of the only decent sites in its field.........he always has items of interest on the ebay.Last edited by Baseley09; 23-07-2006, 21:12.Comment

Had my eyes on that auction too, i was going to post it on the shocking ebay thread thingy but forgot, I'll be honest ive never even heard of the machine, there seems to be loads of really nice titles on it! From the pic they seem to be those old style disk things or is it cart based? Must be one heck of a collection as it went for that much! - is it particularly rare? The guy who bought it splashed about ?700 recently on T-MEK as well for the 32x = deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep pockets!Comment

I'd much prefer to have a MSX1/2 with a bunch of original games than the X68000 with it's arcade conversions tbh. Don't really like the X68000 remake of Castlevania either.Comment

tis 5 3/4 disks, the stuff it came with sint particularly rare, nearly all of it is on ebay now, its the machines being the pain to get hold of shipping from Japan etc.Originally posted by howlin-murdockComment

Agreed 100%.Originally posted by mezzanine
More a FM Towns/Marty man anyway..at least the Towns got conversions of less ported (or in some instances not at all ported) decent arcade games, not the usual stuff you can get on a dozen formats already!Comment

I heard the X68000 was the Japanese equivalent to the AmigaComment

I'd be really interested to see how SSFII runs on it.Comment

SF2 CE is apparently the closest a port capcom could do according to their official history port....not sure of the follow up tho i do know you need extra memory for it.Originally posted by DavidFallows
I'm not sure about the MSX/2 idea, for sure there is some neat software but from my experience the choppy scrolling on some games put me off. Metal Gears & SD Snatcher tho, nice.
IMO Geograph Seal on X68k is about as good as original software gets
Id like any of it really, cant afford of course.....MSX Laserdisc games, oh its a dream
