saturn - only bought it for sega rally
megadrive with a few classics
atari st with loads of games on discs.

tempest and allien v's preditor was the best to games on that machine Atari jaguar

thats all i bought the saturn for was saga rally

i haven't got many games for the Saturn

I only got Sega Rally,Virtua Fighter,Virtua Fighter Remix,clock work Knight


all these machines i have got are modded so they can play any region game if you know what i mean

and the reason why most of my machines were either Jap or Us is because they are NTSC and NTSC those days compaired to the PAL machines were alot faster games speed and they were mostly all full screen NTSC runs at 60 Hz where the uk to runs @ 50Hz

you will notice this even now get a normal uk game and then get the us game then put it in your chipped ps2 you will see that the game speed is faster and there will be no boarders

Marco the Neo-Geo market is very odd but utlimately its for very very serious collectors, for me I just wanted to play the games so I had an Arcade PCB converted to a console so I can play the Arcade versions of the Neo Geo carts on my TV The Arcade versions which are 110% the same are very readily availible and you can pick up Metal Slug etc for £30

These are the games I collected over the years

Benn 304R - the picture you show there is actually from 'International Karate +' by Archer Mclaine.

Boulderdash was also good - fiendishly addictive!
Bubblebobble was another cracker too.

Arcade-wise I used to love Gauntlet, Afterburner, Space harrier (hydraulic version) and Sega Rally.

Hi Paul

you got a good collection there

i'm not a collector of computers but when the new machines come out i normaly buy one but always prefered the jap/us console because of the game speed and normaly full screen without any boarders

the x-box is the same on any format there no diff bewteen regions so is the geo

My mate call Bod he has the same board as yourself


the geo market goes up and down mainly because of e-bay which i suppose is good for us lot as we don't have to pay though the nose anymore

Marco
