    What means that MD II box with the Arcade picture?

    Acually Your collection is very nice. The best Megadrive collection I have ever seen.

    Thanks very much, shame it is nearly all gone now but that's life
    Sorry but not sure which one you are talking about?
    Nope, am getting rid of it all my good man.
    Indeed, although I am getting rid of everything I am nearly finished my arcade cabinet and will be playing emulators on it when it is finished which will probably be about two to three weeks away. I haven't peeled the protective plastic off the two sides yet which is why they aren't as shiny and as sexy as the rest. It is coming along beautifully indeed and am sure it will look fantastic one completely finished:

    Oh damn! Wish I knew how to build things! :wink-new:
    That is going to be one nice looking system.
    Will you be using that HyperSpin thing I've read about?

    Yes I will be using Hyperspin front end. It will have anywhere from thirty to fifty thousand games on it once finished. It will have a Compaq CQ1251AN Desktop PC, Logitech Z3 speakers, X-Arcade Tankstick, Arcade Guns™ light-guns and a Teac LEDV26U83HDR 26" LED TV. I will also be getting 2 TurboTwist 2 spinners with 7" steering wheels so the vast majority of genera are covered. It's killing me having it sitting there incomplete but I am taking my time to ensure it is all done correctly, probably another month or so and it will be finished. Last night all I did was paint the inside frame of the bezel, I'll have to wait another day then give it another coat.

    Slow and steady is definitely the way to go with something like that. No point rushing it!
    Do you have a thread on how you are putting it all together somewhere?
    I'll probably go down the same path one day. Not just yet though! :friendly_wink:

    Wow that cabinet is coming along nicely! I remember the PC etc in boxes when I picked up those games. Did you cut out the cabinet yourself or was it pre-fabbed?

    Unfortunately I didn't document the process photographically or via video"aphically". I would have liked to do so but laziness got in the way, as usual.
    Pre-fabbed my good fellow. It came flat-packed in two boxes. it was a royal pain in the buttocks to put together as the instructions were far too minimalistic. Here is what the cab will look like when completed, though mine has no patterns or anything vut into it: http://www.arcadegamingaustralia.com.au/images/stories/apollo2.jpg

    Did you win anything this time 'round? Or do you disappoint me yet again young grasshopper? That's okay though, you have to save your pennies for the sexy Amstrad Mega PC that will soon be listed!

    Actually I did have a very close look but found I didn't really want anything!
    Errrrrrrr hold that though... Just found that I did want that HES Mega Drive arcade stick... ENDED.
    Ouch! Wait, THE Mega PC? You've hardly had it for a week!
    And how can you sell your bed like that! What will you sleep on! You are a madman and I salute you! :loyal:

    Yeah The Tank did not go for as much as I thought it might have but still went for more than I originally paid for it so it's all good.
    Yeah I know, but it's like a big sale "everything must go and must go now!"
    Ha ha, we needed to get another bed and we already bought a KING SIZE! I am hoping someone will buy our old one before the new one arrives in about 8 days time.

    Haha, so much for spacing it out over 8 years? :wink-new:

    KING SIZE? If I put a king size in my bedroom, I think the floor would no longer be visible... that said, hmmm.

    @flatuswalrus hey man, do you by anychance what do "Fun Game Collection 130" & "Game Collection 30" Korean Sega Megadrive Games contain? is it 30 games in 1 huge cart, the same for 130 games in 1 cart? does the cartridge feel heavy when it's held?

    Hey man, unfortunately I never gave these ones a go and all the writing is in Korean so I can't say what games are on them. It is a sexy mystery!

    I didn't expect these particular ones would get so much attention as I have had many questions asking what's on them. Unfortunately no bids though, hopefully at the end it will be an all out bidding war!

    Yeah I agree im guessing it's because were or us collectors would like to get our hands on them someday also maybe to check differences between each versions i guess & to add to the rom dump set of bootlegs & raritys/mystery ;) unless you have a sort of device you backup your games with is it possible you don't mind dumping the metioned ones please?
