<geek> That's actually a 500plus, which was 1992 with 1meg of RAM on board (leaving the expansion bay underneath free) and kickstart v2 which was somewhat probalamtic for those running old/copied games. Nothing relokick 1.3 wouldn't sort though.

I know - I had one :o

Sold it one crimbo for a tidy sum; and a few hundred of bootleg/copied games (I was 15 by teh time I sold it; no way could I afford the £30 retail of some games :( So did swapsies with mates at school :norty: ).

PS; Pimmo, dump the A520 modulator before it blows up and get a scart adapter -much better picture quality.

Some classics there!

The competition pro joystick was a bit of a nightmare when new, but once it was broken in and loosened up a tiny little bit, they were pretty usable.

It just took months to break the feckers in :D

ALi-B 07 November 2010 03:54 PM

Originally I had a quickshot 2 joystick, which was as sloppy as f**k. Quickly replaced it with a Powerplay Cruiser turbo, which without doubt is the best joystick for the Amiga IMO. Although the suction cups where ****e, so better off just holding it.

Funkii Munkii 07 November 2010 07:26 PM

Always enjoyed a bit of Sensi back in the day ;)

Neanderthal 08 November 2010 12:44 PM

Had a competition pro but never got on with it, always seemed too 'tight'.
The Powerplay Cruiser turbo though, I got through those at an alarming rate. Forever opening them up and glueing the microswitches back down :lol1:

mart360 08 November 2010 06:26 PM

Comp pro under the bed, along with an A1200, and reams of ahem blank discs :D


Ghiana sisters, and barbarian (not the 2 player one) xenon & Gods


Rock and Roll :D:D:D

Boo, atari st all the way for me.

SirFozzalot 08 November 2010 08:56 PM

Really wanted to have a retro session on my Amiga but remembered that it doesn't work properly, keeps crashing with the power light flashing. Happened once before and I got it repaired, didn't bother the second time......replaced it with a Playstation.

Got so many games for it.

Was thinking about getting it repaired but might just try to pick one up off Ebay. :D

Neanderthal 08 November 2010 09:28 PM

Xenon2 was my first Amiga game. Came from a Spectrum +3 and it blew me away!

Camoscooby 08 November 2010 09:33 PM

Amiga 500 - Oh the memories !!:D

That and the Amstrad 64 - Nice:lol1:

pfff - Atari 2600 if you want retro

Hecc's 08 November 2010 10:01 PM

still have an Amiga 500 up in the loft ..along with a fair few other consoles ;)

DJ_Jon 08 November 2010 10:20 PM

Still got my Atari 2600 - complete with wood effect intact & about 10 games. Sadly the Atari joysticks are dead, but the paddles are like new. £100 back in 1980 was a fcuk tonne of money for my parents to shell out for that.

Had an Amiga Batman pack too, good times.

Got one of those too, still in good working order. :norty:

ChefDude 09 November 2010 10:50 AM

i wasted hours on Speedball2. You had to have a ZipStick for that game :D

NAF 09 November 2010 11:35 AM

This was my fav joystick

Went through a fair amount of them !

StickyMicky 09 November 2010 12:06 PM

Yeah, they could not take the punishment at all from my experiance.

Neanderthal 09 November 2010 12:44 PM

Is that a Kempston Quickshot? I had a couple of those. Prefered to use it when playing Sir Geoff Crammonds - Grand Prix to the Competition Pro.

Where can you get these from? I looked on Ebay for amiga + scart and the cable that comes up is for a600/1200 and no mention of 500.
