It was at GΓ€upark in Egerkingen.

Newest addition to the collection is #CarrierAces for the #SuperNintendo. An airplane dogfighting simulation.
It comes with a detailed manual containing tactical advice.
I miss the times when games came with a real manual.
Paid β¬20 for it.

Newest addition to the collection is #Zool for the #SegaMegadrive from #electronic_arts.
Sadly it's missing its manual, but I think I'll get by without it.

Went to one of the largest flea markets in Switzerland today.
Was lucky and caught these games for β¬9.50 a pop.
A fair price since sellers started the habit of googling prices first and going with the highest price on eBay. Bad for flea markets.

I remember that one. Brilliant game. I wish Parasol Stars would have made it on the C64.

Newest addition to the collection is #RainbowIslands for the #Commodore #C64.
Just look at this beauty.π
The box is in Ocean format which was also used on their cartridge releases.
I wish there was a cartridge version, maybe I can come up with something.π€

Yes, and this is even a special version for the CDTV.
But if you're cool with an external solution I'd probably recommend the Unijoysticle (Amiga version).

I opened up my #Commodore #Amiga #CDTV to install a #BlueRetro.
It's a bit of a too tight fit for my understanding. Also the seller didn't solder on the pin headers flush/correctly.
Need to correct that.
Sucks when you're a perfectionist.π€·ββοΈ

It's indeed quite odd.
It even gets weirder, there was a data recorder (datasette) that could be plugged into the keyboard for loading and saving programs.
Strangely enough the use of a disk drive prevents the use of family basic because it occupies the cartridge port.
1
Some more #Famicom shenanigans. Note to self: The Family Basic cartridge only works with the keyboard plugged in.
Next step: Learning Japanese π

That is indeed a beauty.π
Reminds me of some MSX machines.

France was big in Minitel, they even continued the service until 2012.
I remember using the Swiss counterpart "Videotex" with a German BTX adapter cartridge for the Commodore 64.
They all had pretty much the same standard.

Git this for 20 bucks on a French flea market.
It's a #Minitel terminal with AZERTY keyboard.
In other countries also known as Videotext or BTX.
This was THE network before the internet came along.
This desperately needs a cleanup.

Time for some #Famicom Disk system shenanigans.
While the FDSStick isn't as fancy as the FDSKey it has one major advantage. It can be used to write Famicom disks with a PC (provided you have the right drive) as well as adjusting a drive.

Not that I know of, it's pretty much hit and miss, most of the time.
