Re: None Biritsh collectors?
I'm trying to collect only 3DO games and stuff =)3DOKid wrote:Particularly you Germans and Russians...
There were russian consoles/computers, that were really good for their time - Partner (Партнер), Radio (Радио), Vector (Вектор), Orion (Орион), Electronica (Электроника - Nintendo handheld clone), russian arcade games and etc. Production of these consoles/computers were stopped in early 90th, because they couldn't compete with chinese NES/SNES/Sega clones and IBM computers. And now these consoles/computers are HTF.
P.S. How many grammar mistakes have I made in this post? :oops:
I have considered looking at those micros as an extension of my collection. It's only time , cost , availability and space stopping me
here in Oz we got to choose from the best of British and American for a long time - unfortunately so much choice for a relatively small user base means that pretty much everything is hard to get. I do have a beautiful boxed C64C Pro pack complete with floppy drive , arcade stick and bundled software but so far that's it
I remember quite clearly seeing BBC micros and ZX Spectrums for sale in department stores at the time and there was an "Australian" range of computers sold through a then independant chain Dick Smiths. They are quite collectable here.
