Picked up a whole batch of Quicksilva games off the bay this week, to add to the collection. They made some great games but they are worth collecting just for the sexy artwork 🙂
And now they are tucked away in their very own retro-80’s tape case 😀
Some pretty things in all their glory…
Dusted off the C64 today and with the awesomeness that is a SD2IEC card, I have the World at my fingertips.
It’s late and I’ve just got back from GEEK2014 – great show, as ever.
I haven’t much time to write stuff so I thought I would just do a random post about whatever I’ve nabbed lately and added to the retrogaming collection. Just a bunch of pictures for your pleasure 🙂

So I’m re-living a classic today… perfect Sunday afternoon gaming.
I have the original PS1 and PC versions, but they are safely locked away in the loft. I decided to pick up the Steam version for just a few quid and it looks oh-so-pretty. Cloud actually has a face and not a pixelated mush (not that there is anything wrong with pixelated mush!) Happy days 🙂 I barely remember getting off the 1st disk when I played it all those years ago, shame on me. My attention span is not that good for games, preferring a quick blast rather than losing an entire weekend to 1 game. But I’ve decided, and a bit determined, to see this thing through… fingers crossed 🙂
Getting ready for my 4th year as a #Movember MoBro –
Please spare a scheckle or two, if you can – thanks 🙂
One of the best things about hanging around for a train is that I have a retrogaming world in my pocket. It makes those long cold winter nights, waiting on a platform, all worthwhile.
Here I am enjoying a Speccy classic, Jetpac, on my GP Caanoo.
Anybody unfamiliar with these machines, and interested in retrogaming, needs to seriously look at a tiny investment for such great fun. Alternatively, if you have an old PSP kicking around you could just soft mod that. But I love my Caanoo and highly recommend them ❤
Picked up another virgin console today. The Panasonic 3DO FZ-1.
I never owned one 1st time around but have been keeping my eye out on ebay for the last 12 months. Finally bagged a bargain local pickup. She is a beauty.
Don’t do it…!
Play this instead, it’s much more fun 🙂
There’s definitely nothing better than bringing the whole family together for a nice relaxing long weekend of retro play time 🙂
Here’s one for the album…
