No but it is chipped. My mind is hazy but I can have a look if you’re interested.

If the black GC has a digital port I'd be interested in buying it. Possibly the Xbox too. I couldn't collect though due to distance.


I am. Also interested in a GameCube.

Doing a clear out at home before we have our first child next year…

Now need to get rid somehow 🤣

Is that a PS2 slim? I might be interested in that and possibly the PS4. I could probably get someone to pick it up from you (someone I know lives in Nottingham and regularly comes up to Liverpool for the match)

Yeah it’s a chipped PS2 slim. Got a fat wallet of CD-Rs I’d chuck in too!

I looked and both of the GameCubes have the Digital AV out. I’ll check the Xbox tonight.

 

Did you manage to take a look at the Xbox? If you'd be willing to post, then I'm definitely interested in the black GC - let me know what you'd be looking for price-wise :)

The Xbox is fucked unfortunately, it’s getting binned. Black GC is fine though, I don’t have a video cable for it, but power and controller are fine. Does £45 including postage seem fair?

So, my favourite fantasy book dealer dad was at the car boot again. He’s basically the dad of someone probably on this forum selling his Son’s worldly possessions because he’s now married and living in Canada. He had some pretty rare PS1 stuff out today and he told me he had left the ‘manga’ stuff at home, he name dropped Suikoden II… I’ll be back next time for sure!

 

Anyway, I got a few more game books from him today, I was actually after these which was nice

Mine is right at the back of the loft where I'd have to empty the place to even access it. Moving house within the next 12 months so looking forward to testing it out.

Mine too is in the loft. It's also the only console I've ever repaired. The power supply had packed up. I picked up a replacement for about a tenner and it was an almost disappointingly easy job to replace. Couple of hex screws and it's essentially just a PC inside.

 

I haven't played it anywhere near enough. I was put off by the massive Xbox pads, not realising that there were smaller ones. And I had two of them. I'm not even sure I have a way to play it now

Did the Saturn go? I might be able to collect.

Found a near mint condition unboxed ps2 slim in the one near me with a load of buzz tat for £50. Reads dvds but doesn’t read cds. Have ordered a new laser from fleabay, looks like a 5 minute job to replace it. 
 

buzz tat and rubbish games are off to cex, the unit I’ll use as a dvd player on holiday.
