Nearly all of europe uses the 2 pin plugs, its only Ireland, Hong Kong and us in Britain that uses the square 3 pin connectors which are better known as British Standard 1363
But still though what an awesome gift that is, even in Britain, the Amiga CD32 is extremely rare and very pricey. If you can get that thing to work over there then fantastic, you've got yourself a gem of a system.
Actually, that kind of power plug is, as far az i know, is only in Great Britain. In other European countries we have a two pin power connector. And yes, we have 220 V. I'm from Hungary:)
Hey, MN12BIRD, don't you need a PAL SNES?I have one, for free.
deanos mad for sending you this, in a good way. he could of EASILY sold this at the moment on UK ebay for around £50-100. the prices of cd32s have gone much higher in the last year or so. he could of sold this and made a mint. and to think he found it at a car boot (very rare to find anything like this at car boots these days due to everyone selling on ebay) and bought it, and posted the bastard. it must of cost him a few quid without a doubt.
Honestly no just recently traded, for an ATARI 7800! Now before you say WHAT THE HELL? Yeah that would be my reaction lol! But see I had and loved Amiga's in my day but I don't have a monitor that handles PAL and really I wanted to expand the CD32 but whenever I even found one of the expansion modules by the time you add shipping to Canada the prices got stupid.
In short, I didn't see it likely I would be expanding it anytime soon, I CAN emulate it and run most AMIGA titles in emulation really well these days. With emulation the PAL/NTSC thing is not an issue. I never had a ATARI 7800 so I look forward to experiencing that! I can slowly pick up carts here and there, apparently it is one of the earlier revisions too so it does not have some of the incompatibility issue's later versions had with some 2600 carts. CD32 will be a nice addition to your AMIGA!
Wow that was sure nice of him to send you all that stuff. I'm pretty sure in Canadian hardware stores, they should sell adapters that can adapt foreign plugs to the local power imput. I noticed it was from the UK which has 3 connecting pins, the rest of Europe uses a different system to us. Hopefully if you'll look around in hardware or maybe office stores you should find a UK/North American plug adapter. Good luck.
I think a car boot sale is more like a yard sale, but instead of doing it at your own house, lots of people bring their car to a field and set up tables, usually organised on a weekend.
Now that's ridiculous. Deano rocks. The boy needs to put some new content up sometime soon! Maybe you should send him something? It'd be impossible to out-do him though!
Oh yes for sure. I want to eventually send him something. But what do you send the man who has everything? I'll think of something. Trust me... he deserves something for this!
Commodore released a previous CD machine - the CDTV. Basically an Amiga 500 without a keyboard, although you could expand it into a full Amiga 500 (CBM also did a CD drive for the A500). The idea was that it could handle multimedia CDs, Karaoke CDs, etc and that was in '89 or '90. Now, seeing as the A500 was technically 32bit internally, does that make it the 1st 32bit console?
Didn't have a CD32, but I do have a CD drive for my A1200, so I got to play CD32 games. Chaos Engine was brilliant. Arcade Pool which you have there is another excellent game.
Sweet package. Was the magazine you was talking about called 'Computer and Video Games?' I use to buy that back in the late 90's and remember it having all consoles and PC stuff at the time.
I can't remember the name but I held onto it for awhile and now I wish I never lost it! It had a review of Day of the Tentacle in it I remember that! That was probably one reason I bought it back then.
That's so awesome! You're going to have fun tonight! Console looks great, I've never heard of it, which is no surprise since it wasn't released here lol
LUCKY! That is WAY awesome man! I've always thought Deano to be a cool guy regardless of his generosity. And I agree people should for sure check out his channel. That one video were he has all those consoles out is way cool.
Wow awesome! I havent even seen one myselft. The only classic console I got is the sega genesis model 2 which still works fine. I would like to see that console in action if you could do a vid on it.
That CD 32 looks mint. Its a pity David Pleasance and what was left of Commodore UK couldnt buy the company as they had big plans for it. The RISC computer they were developing before they ran into trouble looked really promising.
Holy Shit, Deno rules, I want that little Dreamcast, I'll trade it you for something good stranger(Res' Evil 4) if you missed the joke.
Fair Play to you jake you'll love the CD32, it's a great machine, PM me your address and I'll sort you out with a special CD or 2for it containing a ton of titles.
WOW a Genesi... Amiga!
