I do repairs on the systems I find and then trade them off to people for things I need in my collection :)

Nope, I am planing on doing the repairs and trading them to fill spaces on stuff I am missing :)

The Splatterhouse version on the FM Towns is really good!

A friend of mine collects obscure japanese computers. I played it at his place. He made a website with some information about the systems, but it is in german: http://japan-retro.de/

That is what I have heard, I plan to test that! Supposed to be the best home port of the game. I will check the site out using google translate

Nice stuff, but don't tell me that you are using a lcd screen for the retro consoles!  Or is the 15K CRT monitor hidden somewhere?

I have a Samsung CRT next to the console cabinet, but I do use a LCD mainly with a XRGB Mini Frameister

never played it but it is on my list of games to play once I get my controller :)

thanks  Andreas_AUT! yeah it is a oddball system based on a 386/486 computer from Japan. Broken systems go upto $360ish and working are usually 500+

bought this on christmas eve and it just got here yesterday.

FM Towns Marty, listed as broken. Got it for $122.50+$67 shipping


Opened it up and found the door sensor broken.


Taped the sensor down and it read a audio cd, later tested free software collection vol2, splatterhouse, and muscle bomber all loaded fine.


tested a floppy diskette and it sounded really loud, removed the drive and found broken belt. WIll be replacing that next.


Now to find a controller

Yup I have the board set for Golden Axe, TMNT, TMNT Turtles in Time. Just no cabinets for them yet.

The cabinet I have with Altered Beast in it will be going back to it's original Jungle King once I can afford the parts to do it.
