Sharp X68000 getting all the love when Towns is out here being equally as awesome
I said what I said! lolC'mon now. FM Towns looks appealing but is not comparable to the Sharp X68000 library.
4 Gradius games, Castlevania, Cho-Shen Ra, and a long list of shmups and fighters to boot..
Let’s be real
You forget that SHMUPS rule. The rest doesn't - Hence the Marty is lovable
I said what I said! lol
Splatterhouse near arcade perfect...all you need!
if you want one get one now...won't get any cheaperI still kind-of want an FM-Towns II, one of the models with the CD-ROM in front. Even though the X68k has the better library and most of the arcade ports now exist in better versions on other hardware or in MAME. And I'm not into the "typical" Japanese PC games.
Maybe I'll pick one up if I see an affordable one in good shape - though I'm sure that'll happen less and less as hardware fails.
No RGB mod yet. The FM towns Marty processes digital YC into analog YC. I don’t know if anyone has looked at whether the VDP outputs digital RGB. It might be easier to ask Fixel if he’s considering a Marty digital AV mod.The Marty is getting lots of love lately what with Caius' ram expansion & scsi cards, 'the thing' and now Fixels ODE/FDD combo unit.
Does anyone know of an RGB mod for it? I'm using composite cables
So you're saying the Towns is the better library. I'm understanding that right, right?Viewpoint

As someone who loves and has repaired dozens of x68000s, I am of the firm opinion Viewpoint is the best game not on the hardware.Idk rewrite. Is that what you’re saying lol?
Just tell the audience the FM Towns is better based on your technical opinion and experience..
I dare you!
the ODE will be great. That's my Marty Fixel has and is working on. Progress is happeningThe Marty is getting lots of love lately what with Caius' ram expansion & scsi cards, 'the thing' and now Fixels ODE/FDD combo unit.

Has Fixel considered doing an equivalent to the Wizard ODE?the ODE will be great. That's my Marty Fixel has and is working on. Progress is happening

Nothing but the color. Sure maybe a cap is a diff value or a chip was subbed for a diff like part but specs/performance are 1:1.Anyone know if there are differences between Marty and Marty 2? Other than the case color of course. I’ve heard rumors that Marty 2 has 486 processor versus 386 in Marty.
Thanks for the responseNothing but the color. Sure maybe a cap is a diff value or a chip was subbed for a diff like part but specs/performance are 1:1.
It’s certainly not a 486
100% zero issues. Its identical hardwareThanks for the response
So a future ODE should work on both. Got it
