Work in progress - MAME cab #2

What to say .... I liked the original cut-out for the old monitor so I have installed LCD underneath it to keep the original look. I forgot to turn the backlight for the shoot, looks amazing! My old buttons and joys from neogeo cabinet fit the openings, I love it when the work is progressing so fast. Enjoy first picture!

AAAWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!

A crazy new addition from a family member, he got it in his "hangar" :D
Three new MAME cabinets? Well that's not decided yet, those two can probably be repaired to work "as is".

Childhood memory

This is how gaming worked back in the days... maybe '95?
This is my gaming notebook created for the 700in1 famiclone, I had no other cartridges so searching for some interesting hack/variation among the 700 built-in games was how I spent my time.

Sonic figure No.2

Not really very nice, but at least the head is big enough to resemble the megadrive counterpart. Too big to stand by itself though, which is really disappointing.

SMB 2j from RetroUSB

Hey! This is a cartridge fully manufactured by an unlicensed company, RETROZONE (at retrousb.com). No longer in production, this baby is supposedly the original SMB2j working in a cartridge. Hardware craziness! (on the right is an unused repropak, still undecided what will go there)

Sega Mega CD - model 1 (J) !!!

This is the japanese Mega CD console, on the photo along with my Japanese megadrive. But the point is, that this is the Model 1, not the uninteresting model 2, no , it's the model with the self ejecting CD tray, in fully working condition, recapped by me (a must have on these models). It's simply wonderful.


The NOMAD

Yep, I aquired also this beauty, the american NOMAD, Sega Nomad. Bought in a small game store in Las Vegas, though not cheap, I had to buy it. It's one of those things you won't stumble upon in Europe or anywhere else except america, cause it wasn't released anywhere else.



TWIN

Yes, the fabled Twin Famicom! This one came to me in two packages from 80sFreak! The drive came separately because of its weight. Not many people can do this for you. Anyway, this is one of the top pieces in my collection, fully working, and just perfect! I am TWIN, who is more? (me, the square button....of course)



And now for something...green?

A small addition to the GB family, a green Gameboy color from Vojto! It's drawing attention from other valuable pieces just because it's so shiny green! Thank you!

Xbox customs

Check out one of the most modern pieces of hardware I have in my collection! An original Xbox, customized by a family member! Chipped!

Another Sega (MD) accessory

A Sega Mouse? Of course! You need something to play Wacky Worlds with! You know, it's the one with the appearance of Sonic!

Sega Saturn 3D controller

As a fan of Sonic Team, I always wanted to buy this controller to play Nights into Dreams on my Saturn. This is it, a boxed version. Nice :)

Old wallet

I bought this one in america two years ago, outside is wonderful, but I better not show you the insides. I'll keep this one in my display and not in my pocket.

New wallet

Awesome small accessory found yesterday! I was in need of a new one anyway...
