A while ago I took some pictures of most of my stuff so I should probably post this before it's really out-of-date. Some things are missing, either because I got them after taking the pictures or I just forgot, or they weren't relevant. Such as: Atari 1040 STe, +2 Spectrum (grey), Gamecubes x6, spare 2600 x2, parts of a BBC Micro..........and so on......

48k is modded for composite video. Also added a light.

DivIDE interface for the Spectrum(s).

A500 is currently stored in the loft as it needs a new floppy drive.

4MB ram expansion & CF card in the 1200. Replaced all capacitors.

S-Video mod for the Atari 2600

BBC Master has a TurboMMC card.

My main DC is VGA modded, has a blue light, new battery, region-free bios chip and fixed the reset problem.

Backlit screen.

TV output mod for the Game Gear. Also has a controller port.

Main MD1 has 50/60hz, language & overclock switches and all capacitors have been replaced. Both MD1's are C-Sync modded (no jailbars). "Genesis" 2 actually has an MD2 motherboard inside set to 60hz as the Genesis picture quality was rubbish. Mega CD has a region-free bios chip and I've changed some of the capacitors and the battery.

The other MD1 has a 68010 CPU in it instead of an overclock switch.

An old picture. I have several N64's. My main ones are: NTSC RGB modded x2, PAL (French) RGB modded, my original (that goes with the box) and one with extra lights in for no reason.

I won the steering wheel from 64 magazine.

Swapped the NES motherboard for an NTSC one. Don't ask about the games.

Blue one is a debug model which plays CD-R's without a modchip.

Model 2 Saturn is currently out of action. Just fitted a region-free bios chip in the model 1 the other day. Already has a 60hz switch, obviously.

Both Master Systems are wired to 60hz. RGB mod on the MS2, which now gives a better picture quality than the MS1.

60hz & region mods, as usual.

Some miscellaneous controllers/joysticks. BBC Micro one on the left, specially modified Amiga & Atari MD controllers and a couple of other joysticks.

Great Collection, like the Net Yarozee.

I want to know more about the divide interface, how long did it take you to convert the futurama video?
I need to know before I fork out money!

The Yaroze is actually something else

The videos can take a while to convert. Depends on the file size. Also had to convert it to 25fps beforehand.

Interesting comment re: the picture quality of Genesis II.

I think it's a late revision cut-down board. There's a bit missing on the left hand side. Might be like that on all Genesis 2's, I don't know...but definitely not the MD2. Also, I think the board said 1996 on it.

Very Nice Vyo!!! I really like all of it. My favorites would be the Commodore 64 box and the N64 game collection.

I like this stuff. Such a mixture of items on here with such diversity of content. The modding is also very cool.

Re-organised things a bit. I still don't really do "tidy" but I have all these connected to my main gaming TV:

MD1 w/32x, MD1 w/MCD2, N64, SNES, 3DO, NES, Jaguar, Saturn, Master System, Game Gear, A1200, ST, PS1, GC w/Gameboy player, 2600, CD-i.

Have to do a bit of cable swapping sometimes, but it's mostly ready to use. Also moved the BBC Master as when I use it I have to move it closer to me anyway. If you're wondering why I have the 32x in a separate Mega Drive....The video output on my 32x has some faint diagonal lines on it and I haven't got round to finding a solution yet.

This is a picture of my desk I took a while ago. The monitor has 2 VGA inputs so the DC is connected to it as well as the PC.

That's a big load of consoles and computers on one setup, I tip my hat to you sir. I managed 5 consoles (6 if you count Megadrive and Megacd separate) but yours is da bomb with all that going on.
Do you ever go to move one of the connectors and get a shock from it?Â
And don't you find it difficult to remember what plug is for what in that tangle sometimes or is that just me cos I'm old now?
