I think he makes these himself. I've put all the data here to make your own: Writepin - CPCWiki

Well, for those lazy enough €3.5 is not that bad, though he could've thrown in two of them instead of 1.

Sure, that is the classical thing that sometimes you prefer to pay only because you do not feel like making one. Ah, laziness...  :-\

Wow. Not seen one of these in a while.

It's a romboard extra for a CPC 464 that has a switchable socket for a basic 1.1 ROM to upgrade to 664 spec externally.

I saw it the other day  :) I could try to place a bid if it has some historic value or we want to have hi-res scans for the Wiki  :)

Has it been seriously modded or did it have all those bodge wires on the original?

Mine had them too.

Joystick for Joyce, anyone? :)

That looks like it was done on a 3D printer. Clone perhaps?

MHT Ingenieros was a Spanish company that produced hardware for plenty of popular computers :) . The company was alive for quite a long time in Spain, but I never had anything from them :) . Here you have a little bit of info, although in Spanish...

Not sure if it's been mentioned or not but there are some new old stock gx4000 world of sport games.


It would be nice if some better nos titles showed up though.

They are selling like hot cakes!  :-\

Some guys bitch at it, because it only has 4 events. Ok Wintergames did better regarding this number. But how much can one put in only 128 KB of Cart-ROM? (Seems no compression was used).

However, nobody bitches at games like 'Tennis' where you one have one (in numbers 1) events.


I like it for using the Plus features propely. And here take a look at it:

It is clearly a Plus game, for sure :), and it does not look bad if you watch the video. I was never very fond of sport games, but it looks enjoyable :)

Honestly same here. Four games in 128 KB makes 32 KB for each one. Well, now that would be ...16 games in the 512 KB cartridge.  :laugh:

18 quid for 5 minutes of gameplay. There are an awful lot of mugs out there with more more money than sense. 18 quid that could have gone towards a C4CPC.

But that one game might be done well.

A little off topic here, but maybe someone here can explain this: I have saved a search in ebay and it's set to send me an email notification when something new arrives. However, I get an email saying something like "41 new items for your search 'Amstrad CPC'", but when I open the e-mail it never lists more than 12 items. It has a button for "Show all", but this just does a complete search and lists every Amstrad CPC, not just the 41 new ones.

Anyone have an idea what I need to change to get all 41 listed in the e-mail?

It looks nice but the gameplay is not fun.

Hm, just checked a subscription/notification email and the "view all results" correctly goes to the specific search page... which ebay are you on?
