If I had one of these, it would sit on a shelf. I’d rather have the shelf space 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soon nothing is going to be selling for under 500 no matter what the item is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+mizapf Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 Scott Adams Adventures on disk (instead cassette)? Never saw any of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the Scott Adams adventures are quite common on disk and cassette, but rarity is also somewhat locational. The disks may not have been common in Australia. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artoj Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 I think the VIATEL cartridge was created on an Eprom made for the Australian market, I remember seeing this in the 80's, I think it was created by a TI enthusiast who worked for Telecom (now TELSTRA). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OLD CS1 Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Is this one available online somewhere? * I remember seeing it in (I think) a Triton catalog, and it was the first RPG to ever catch my interest, in a sea of RPGs constantly advertised for other computers. I finally made a jump with Pool of Radiance on my C64 (and I only just recently learned there is an Amiga version of it and others in the series!) https://www.ebay.com/itm/235705834953 * Never mind! I found it in my rats nest of TI files, along with Legends II. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still have them in their original ziplock bags and all documentation. Damn good RPG's if you ask me. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been reading up on the history of Sierra Online, it is one of the few large game houses from the 80's and early 90's that have had any kind of documented histories written about them. One common theme was the number of artist and musician's that were pulled in during that time period. The TI world benefited from the time Don Grono's, Hank Mishkoff and Ken Gilliland spent in it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+dhe Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Thanks, I have that in storage, I bought it when it first came out (many years ago). I had forgotten they talk about Sierra. I need to reread the whole thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary from OPA Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 The Canadian eBay seller that been selling off one good item at a time, has now put up for sale a Corcomp disk controller, and this sadly will end up in a bidding war for sure: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/405198688245 And south of the border we have a eBay seller offering up a thermal printer along with a 32k sidecar, with even a yellowed roll of paper. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/266974512977 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am currently looking at repairing for ArcadeShopper, if I found what's wrong with it, I might be able to help you repair yours. You can also buy these replacement kits from eBay, not sure if the included PALs come programmed or not, but I think the JED files are available for them. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/113047663091 Edited September 2 by Gary from OPA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ti99iuc Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 @Gary from OPA Thanks for the suggestion. I have purchased It and Hope this could help me to repair at least the One that works partially. It can't format a disk and It can't Copy from a disk to another giving errors on both of the cases. So i have an Hope Reading also the rickydean's experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use a GAL16v8D or some other substitute and can use a Minipro to program the GAL's.
