2025年08月20日 - ぴゅう太ゲームアダプター The Pyuta game adapter brought (well, more likely facilitated bringing) 3D capabilities to the Tomy Pyuta. It plugs in to the expansion slot on the back on the system, and provides a second cartridge slot for the 3D titles to plug into. The 3D cartridges are physically identical to the standard cartridges. 続き⇒ |

2025年08月20日 - 2回目のシャープMZ-80B（＋その他） A while back, I found an incredibly good deal on a Sharp MZ-80B system and a host of extras. It included a dual floppy drive unit, as well as the corresponding expansion card so the computer could communicate with the drives, and a lot of floppy disks. What really struck me was how well taken care of this all was. Floppy disk collections this old in Japan almost always come bundled with at least some amount of mold, but the system, drives, and disks were all clean and working. 続き⇒ |

2025年07月30日 - 日立ベーシックマスターマーク5 Finally, after about six years of collecting, I got a Hitachi Basic Master series computer. It has a massive footprint, designed to have the monitor placed on top of it. It came in its original box, and it was shipped to me in another box (which I am thankful for!), so in order to play with it, I had to prepare to have three Basic Master-sized items out at the same time, which is no easy task in my environment. But there's no denying, it's a gorgeous machine! 続き⇒ |

2025年07月21日 - 箱有のPC-8001 I recently picked up a complete-in-box PC-8001. It consisted of the computer, the instruction manuals, a compact BASIC reference pamphlet, monochrome video cable, CMT cable, system demo tape, and the manufacturer's warranty. It was all in great condition. 続き⇒ |

2025年06月29日 - JOY JOY PACK There were three software packages in the Joy Joy Pack series. For a brief period, I had all three. They're a neat-looking collection. 続き⇒ |

2025年06月18日 - JOY JOY PACK SPECIAL Despite reading the description, I didn't really know what I was getting myself into with this purchase. It's a never-opened (until now) Joy Joy Pack #3 for the MZ-1500. It contains two QuickDisks with two main games, Drol and Shooting Wars. It also came with a board game, but the board game is based on Drol, and relies on loading side B of the Drol QuickDisk.The software on side B acts as the dice and also produces in-game messages. 続き⇒ |

2025年06月15日 - JOY JOY PACK第2弾 This is the second of three Joy Joy Packs. As its predecessor, it is a nicely presented, although cheaply packaged, collection of six QuickDisks containing utilities, study material, and a single QuickDisk with two games. Although it is cheaply packaged, the way in which it is cheaply packaged was changed quite a bit, and the end result was slightly better. 続き⇒ |

2025年04月16日 - セガ SC-3000H I've had a couple of different SC-3000s, with specs varying by color only (originally I had black, now I have red). I recently grabbed an SC-3000H because a) it is a different color (white) and b) it was quite a reasonable price compared to others I'd seen. 続き⇒ |

2025年04月15日 - トミー TV FUN 601 When I saw the Tomy TV Fun 601 on Mercari, I thought it was a pretty handsome machine, but after looking a bit more, I see the previous version of the TV Fun was actually much more sophisticated-looking with its wood grain case and silver knobs. But this is still pretty nice-looking! 続き⇒ |
