That Popeye console is awesome, I remember seeing it in the Argos catalog when I was very young along with the Tomy 3D games! Would like to see those in action!
@RetroRepair I actually saw a couple of those 3D binocular type games for sale today. But the dealer wanted £15 for each so I left it. I was amazed that the Popeye game actually still worked.
Its usually the video GPU or something that glitches the screen man,look over xbox scene.org an ask them,i used forum posts on there with my 360 an i got some good feedback an repsonses from the guys on it. Hope you sort it mate,great pickups btw mate
that popeye tabletop is absolutely fantastic, and yes i would imagine it is rare/sought after and worth quite a bit, 50p is a total steal....i'd love one of those.
very cool street fighter plug n play, havent seen one of those before....
unfortunate that the 360 didnt work but for £10 it was worth a punt. like you said the cables and stuff should recoup most of that cost. hopefully you can get it repaired or get some use out of it at least....
@TheFatalHybrid Cheers mate. That Popeye game caught my eye almost immediately. I guess being there just gone 6am in the morning gave me the edge in finding such treasures.
I used to see the SF2 plug n plays at Toys R Us. Of course they charged £20 for it at the time.
I'm hoping a top up of thermal paste and decent cooling will sort out the 360...
I don't have any Plug & Play games, though I've thought about starting up a collection.
I'll PM you about the books. :)
STAY AWESOME! :)

@cessnaace I've done a vid for the Commodore 64 one that I have. As I have quite a few of them now, I've decided to do vids for each one.

@RetroRepair I actually sent you a email about it. YT alerts have been quite glitchy as of late.

@xTHExSTIGx Thanks mate. Winning 1 out of 2 gambles isn't too bad. Hope fully I can eventually make that 2 wins.
