@rasputniktelly Wow !! Suburb work dude, I'm still slowing working through your last list , oh god even more to collect now 😅, 👏👏

@leither_mark Hi Mark The list expanded into its own site, which is now live. Thanks for inspiring me. 🤯😁 I took it further with addittional reasearch. And to all of you out there: - So, you thought you knew it all? You are there too under Homebrews: Atic Atac Next sabrewurl.de

Ultimate collection almost complete, just a couple more compilations to go and a few custom posters never hurts to have 😉 #ultimateplaythegame #zxspectrum #bbc #commodore #amstrad #ultimate

@MarkRJones1970 What !! How quick 😂👏

@leither_mark Before and after! Much neater! 👍

Is anyone able2take a flat, straight on photo of the #ZXSpectrum barcode on the side of the Daley Thompson's Olympic Challenge box for me so I can print 1out? I lent mine to an exhibition once& they put a dirty great purple sticker over it which ripped it off once I got it back!

@rasputniktelly Haha, yeah chancers everywhere for hardcore collectors only with more money than sence

@leither_mark Nobody will buy it at that price... but... well, prepare yourself for this one: ebay.co.uk/itm/1464331629… This will be goodnight for me. 🫣 Nightmares ahead.

@rasputniktelly Wow , don't think I'll ever be stretching it that far 🤣

@leither_mark I got mine for around 25 euros a couple of years ago. 50 may be top end, but not obscene. Just take a look at this: 🤯 ebay.co.uk/itm/3568998528… Ebay is mostly overpriced. Keep an eye on msx.org's market. Better prices, but goes quickly.

@rasputniktelly Is that the price they usually go for ?

@leither_mark Just spotted this: ebay.co.uk/itm/2569316749…

@rasputniktelly Wow bloody hell that's very cool , good work dude 😎

@leither_mark I'm not yet halfways, but here is a link. It's just the Official, Aackosoft and Jaleco games for now. I put an index tree at top, to fast access the 2 latter. The Ultimate Zen: retromagazines.net/zen/the-ultima…

@rasputniktelly Cheers buddy, appreciate the effort

@leither_mark I'm well into UPTG overview-making. I've decided to make the complete list (incl. bootlegs and homebrews) on my site. There's more than I remember, so it'll take a day or two more. I'll send you a link before I publicise, so you can cast a glance and get out there... getting.

@rasputniktelly Oh sounds quite big then ? Don't mean to be a hassle for you 🥴

@leither_mark Sure, I'll gather a complete list for you tomorrow. It's all spread around a bit, my lists. 🙃

@rasputniktelly This is my latest purchase and only msx titles so far, I don't suppose you have a list of titles from both of those companies? Would be a great help when searching

@leither_mark Too bad, but I sold duplicates of my two Aackos, last year. I'll post you links when I spot some more or Jalecos. I'm myself hunting the Blackwyche from ABC Soft. I don't collect the Spanish except a few from ABC and some of the Erbe ones.

@rasputniktelly What websites are you seeing these jaleco titles on ?

@leither_mark I see the Jaleco quite often (from Japan and usually quite dear), but the Aackosoft I rarely see, but the times I have and bought, rather cheaply, strangely. I have Aacko Knight Lore and Gunfright, but Nightshade is VERY illusive, not even a cover scan available.

@rasputniktelly It's gotten a lot bigger since then , I have all the Firebird releases , but no jaleco or aackosoft releases ( and haven't seen any for sale if I'm honest ) I guess I'm looking in the wrong places 🤔

@leither_mark What about the Firebird, Jaleco and Aackosoft versions? 🤔 When are you moving to Bluesky? Most retro-peeps are there now. Overview: bsky.app/profile/retrom… RIP Twitter. Me: bsky.app/profile/retrom…

@MarkRJones1970 😂😂😂 priceless

@leither_mark It's signed by the author, Clive Townsend. When I gave it to him to sign he said "I didn't think this ever came out!!" I just said "It didn't" 😝

My set of titles by #Durell for the #ZXSpectrum, my favourites being Thanatos, which I bought as a new release back in the day, & the amazing (for the time) Turbo Esprit. And who on earth owned a Spectrum & didn't have a copy of Scuba Dive? Original or pirate! #RetroGaming

@MarkRJones1970 Looks bloody good for sure 😁

@leither_mark Well spotted. It was a test to see how long it would take someone to notice. You won. So, yeah, I made them myself back when the game finally surfaced
