  • Mulitiface 1With a Mulitface 1, can you save games from tape and put them on disk on a +3? Or is it just compatitable with the 48/128k +2 models?

    You'd probably need a FIXER to even get it working and even then it wouldn't save to +3 disk. You need a Multiface 3 - there was one for sale on here a while ago.
