Yeah, I picked up one a few years back. I've since added a second controller and around 5 'games'.

I wasn't able to get the Fujitsu Fm Towns Marty, I dont know if thats good or bad lol, better luck next time.

That's the more commonly available Marty. The Marty II is harder to find and more expensive. But, it isn't any more powerful than the original Marty.

The FM Towns is a pretty decent system. It has a lot of PC games from the early 90s, and a decent collection of arcade games.

If you're really looking for one, try looking on Yahoo Japan. You can sign up for an account with Shopping Mall Japan or Rinkya, and bid in auctions through the services.

Even with shipping and the fees, you should be able to get one for around $100-$125. If you're patient, you can probably do better than that.

Yes its a very decent system, since you have one I'de like to ask you a few questions.

That floppy drive to the right, does it use IBM formatted disks?
Some Marty computer games are disk only and use multiple disks, can the Marty handle more than a single disk? how would one install these types games?
About the VIS, the VIS is almost like a PC of some sort, even has an old windows version, can it handle some older PC Dos titles aside from software developed specifically for it.
How do those old wireless controllers handle? That website above still has em in stock (ive asked) and they let you choose about 20 titles if you order the player.

I could be mistaken, but the rarer Marty 2 you speak about has a much darker color and has a 486 inside rather than the 386 I bid for, so it is technically more powerful. I don't think it matters though.
Thanks for the head up on Yahoo Japan, I never though of that lol. dunce.

Are there people still looking for Nuon collections? Because I could part with mine and I don't mind announcing here before ebay (since I don't have to describe these things here!). Briefly, I have:

Samsung N2000 (includes manual, controller, demo CD, Ballistic)
Samsung N501 (with box and manual, Ballistic-unopened)
2 HPI stealth controllers
Tempest 3000
Merlin Racing
Freefall 3050AD (unopened)

Apparently it's worth whatever the market will bear.

p.s. I also have a large Jaguar collection I don't use anymore, including 2 air cars carts (& links), 2 CD players, and a BJL-modded Jag. (Also games including T2K and Defender 2000. Yup, I'm a Yak fan.)

No and not much. I've only bought 4 or 5 things on ebay and never sold. My id is homer_j, I have a few good feedbacks, but I'm not a major ebay-er.

I guess I'll just have to make up the whole ad when I get some time. But I'm *really* lazy. Teamster lazy.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
