Haven't been around much lately, busy with work and crap, but i was scanning the main site and came across this: www.smstributes.co.uk/view_page.asp?articleid=211What the hell is that 5 game box in the top picture? Is it for the SMS? And who's Chuck? |

Interesting - I'd not seen that page, either. "Chuck" is chuckltd, one assumes. I have a feeling that those games are for something like the Commodore 64 or Spectrum. Still, that does look like a cool set. |

That was my first guess too, although i have never seen that 5 pack before and i search EVERY Sega listing. I'll be keeping an eye out for that 5 pack though, that box is awesome.

Oh those five games... Those are Sega PC ports from the late 80's...

That's another mystery solved - and we didn't even need a van, If that were cheaper, I'd probably buy it. I recently got a 5.25" disk drive for my C64, but have no disk-based software with which to test it (my C64 software library consists solely of tapes). :) |

I like Matt's layout with the side of those SMS1 boxes under his games on the shelf, looks cool.

Still, that does look like a cool set. Yes, those are for the C-64. I count them among my SMS collection because they're very related. Even uses the same CPU chip. The packaging is very cool and even SMS styled, but better artwork! |

They're very different. My bad. I should've mentioned that I use the CPM add-on module which adds a Z80 for better performance. |
