    Same here from a UK person too. Previously I've owned a ZX Spectrum 128K +2B which was untested on Facebook, bought it for very cheap along with a power supply from a car boot sale. I sold the bundle a few months ago on eBay for 70 pounds and invested into an Amiga 500+.

    Even better flipping them - I’ve got quite a few I’ve collected/repaired over the years. Only recently got another working grey +2 which was the first ever computer I remember using as a child 😀 hence the nostalgia I think.

    Recently refurbed a +3, some Microdrives, the ZX printer and some other rare stuff to go with it!

    Awesome! Saving old hardware and making a few bucks from it is the best thing ever. I still haven't fixed any 8 bits yet, though I hear my dad has more than a few boxes of broken VIC-20s and C64s he got for $5 each lol. Could be fun to work on those.

    im sure half the responses won't be literal racial slurs or "drop table" jokes
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Look, it's China. They know what it's like when you give a poll to half a billion trolls.

    I know the pricing of electronics nowadays isn't "how much it actually costs" but "how much we can get away with", but putting up a poll is just cynical.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Probably $150 someone said Anbernic said around the same price as rg556
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:

    Make it a happy meal toy
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    that game's engine is really fucking intensive so it runs like literal shit on xbox 360 and ps3
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Nah I'm getting value creep again. I look at a $50 console "but for just a few more dollars you could get XYZ" and I end up considering the Steam Deck.

    like the lighting in that game was genuinely so good
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Not getting dragged into that again.
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    i dont get why they didn't port the one game that ran the worst on consoles, to pc
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    like you port everything to pc except the one game where it would make the most sense. why. what do you gain from this
  • Julie_Pilgrim @ Julie_Pilgrim:
    is sega just personally fucking with me? are they laughing while watching me through my kinect camera as i get up to restart my xbox for the third time because the game froze again
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Buy handhelds from five below better quality
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Valve probably going to do another refresh of the deck this fall with rog ally like specs tbh
