    thou with the SNES and MEGADRIVE coming along it would end my spending spree with the purchase of the awesome MGH (multi game hunter)

    yes ocean, they were called something else b4 ocean, what ever happened to them

    £1.99 and £2.99 must have been by mastertronic - early days the darling brothers worked for them (codemasters)

    mgh, oh it was. i think i threw it out a couple of years ago , it had an adaptor so it could fit on the snes or megadrive, you could copy the cart that was in the top, or even better download games form your fav bbs (b4 the Inet took off) and from your pc copy to fdd and the mgh could read the floppy and you could play them game, first time i saw it it blew my mind , that the next day i bought one for £300 alot of money then.. ...

    but i still have profighter one, which has a serial interface on it , so you can connect it to your pc and so it went from copying 1 cart by yourslef to downloading 1 game from a bbs to buying a cd with 650 games on which could be transferred from the pc to the copier - a gamers heaven

    oh , you used a sinclair ac adptor on the MGH and the other copiers becuase they could handle a lot of amps - so one use for the adaptor but not the puter

    i should be on mastermind video gaming industry in the 80's

    i use to play super bomberman on the snes with my sisters kid, he beat me 100s of times, and like in the simpsons when homer beat bart once, he would never play it again

    but did your mom ever beat you, that would have been embarrassing , my mom once played a game on the vic 20 which still me now
