    EDIT: Only UK stockist I can find is an Amazon seller, but no delivery until just before Christmas.
    Get it from the US Amazon store mate, if you select express delivery you can get it by the end of the month, £35 with import charges already paid.

      Someone has used the Pi IO to dump Gameboy and SNES carts, so I'd imagine the possibility is there to dump NeoGeo too:

      Back at the turn of the century, shoving MiniITX motherboards into just about everything was all the rage with the technologist crowd. [waterbury] had the idea of making a computer out of an SNES, …

        Brilliant, cheers. Was mostly looking at BIOS options rather than make boots to anyone that saw my post and frowned.

          Spot the idiot who ordered the case & pad via Aliexpress for $39 & will have to wait 4-6 weeks for it

                Hmmm, I can't log in to the US site with my UK info for some reason.

                  Strange, mines always worked like this, all details and payment details are the same on both too. Just updated a card on one and it was changed on the other.

                        These are in stock on U.K. Amazon now, so cancelled my US order as it works out cheaper as I have Prime. Should be delivered for me getting home this weekend.

                            ^ That's lovely. I'm tempted just to get a second RPi3 and have this with some Retropie build on it.

                              Had a Pi 2 Model B V1.1 for ages, it was preloaded with loadsa decent stuff so I haven't fiddled about with it much. It's got Recalbox on it and I just tried to add some stuff but it's not even reading my WiFi, even though it's all dongled up with the right key and SSID n all that. Annoying...anyone had this? I initially thought I could just cram loadsa ROMs on an SD card but no such luck I'm afraid, I thought it would be so easy...

                                that md case is awesome, only problem with the pi though is the frontends look like trash. Going to the effort of making it look like a ace md is kind of ruined when you boot it up and have an ugly frontend dealing with your games, wonder if it's improved since i last dabbled on my pi?
