I forgot to mention PSP Go. Very good reason why I forgot it.

PSP Go makes a great emulation toy though right?
If you are into emulation of course.

Loads of old pong clones and other shite I forget. Dad's trade meant we I was flooded with machines hence the list.

There is however one console that baffles me to this day. It took carts, graphics wise a bit up on an Atari 2600. I 'think, it was called 'something' Database and it was British made. Had these very solid light brown overlays that went over the joystick type pads. We had a ton of games for it, and I have NEVER to this day seen another one. I'm almost sure we still have games for it in the loft but sadly not the machine afaik. I would love to know what it was, bugged me for years and I loved the machine at the time.

Found it! Voltmace Database! http://ultimateconsoledatabase.com/classics/voltmace_database.htm

Have really fond memories of that machine. Oddly it was made in a Baldock, Hertfordshire which is only down the road from where live! Weird.

Probably should explain my list which is far from complete. Back in the day (pre Amiga), my Father had the contract for the waste yards. Before eBay old consoles and computers were not worth a fart so people dropped them off for disposal.

What was scary was what they got rid off. Boxed SNES's with tons of boxed games for example came in all the time. My ole fella just put them aside for me.

This went on for years, even early eBay years. When eBay started I started punting the stuff on eBay which allowed me to buy stuff like the Neo Geo, PC Engines etc. At one point it became so overwhelming I auctioned the ENTIRE contents of my loft (something I did a second time later as well). I still have a loft full now, lord knows what's up there (I did start emptying it a while back but gave up).

Later on eBay became more mainstream and stuff dried up though it still came in occasionally.

I don't really remember a great deal of what I played on it, to be honest. Snake and a Centipede game seem to ring bells, but I really cut my gaming teeth on the Commodore 64. So many good memories from playing on that.
