FOR TRADE: Sharp X68000. Ideally looking for Amiga big box

Post by Higgy »

Hi,

I am looking to swap/trade this original model Sharp X68000 CZ-600C.
I am ideally looking for a big box Amiga. A 3000 would be top of the list. But tell me what you have :D

It has memory expansion and BlueSCSI harddrive fully loaded. So you can play 99% of the software.
I don't have the original keyboard/mouse but I built these USB adapters and Logitech wireless keyboard/mouse combos work really well.

This is type of menu you get with the harddrive, so you don't have to navigate Japanese:

@terriblefire @GadgetUK164 you being more Amiga people, know anyone with either an Amiga 3000, 4000 or 1000 that would be interested in a swap for a X68000?

Looks like a nice machine but I wouldnt part with any of my BBAs. Maybe @chucky or @erique. The latter has too many A4000s.

BUMP
I am still looking for a swap. After waiting 2 months for a swap with someone, they now changed their mind :mad:

I would also be interested in a Neo Geo AEG with multi/flash cart. Probably other systems I can't think of. A Game&Watch collection would be nice to go with my other ones.

Solved.

I swapped for an A1000 with some tasty upgrades.

It has a 'GBA-1000' replacement motherboard, which is like an A3000 without SCSI.
ECS, 2mb chip, 8mb fast, built-in IDE and scandoubler.
But then the icing on top, an RTG graphics card and a 060 accelerator with onboard 128mb.
Accelerator is running a Rev 6 and can run at 50 or 100Mhz. I've reprogrammed the CLPD so it's running at 50Mhz at the moment while I get a CF harddrive all configured how I want it.
