@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

My best score since getting Devil's Crush again!  :D

I still can't crack 9 digits though.  ](*,)

I'm playing this absolute classic how it ought to be played! :wink:

I picked the Emerson up about 9 months ago at Goodwill for $5. It even had the original remote with no battery corrosion! :D

On another note, what is everyone's favorite firepower/power-up combination?? Right now I'm trying out firepower upgrade IV with the shield power up. My go-to is III with homing missiles, but I also have a lot of fun with I and the shield power up as well.

Thoughts?

Picked all of this up at Retro City Fest, in Pomona, California, today! I had to part ways with my Turbo collection a couple of years back to help pay for grad school. I'm beyond stoked right now!!!!

I scored a CIC copy of Last Alert today so I'm raffling off my old copy. This is for the disc only. It has a few minor surface marks, but looks pretty damn good overall and plays perfectly.

This raffle is open to all.

This raffle will close in two weeks on the 17th, and the winner will be selected on the 18th.

Please help with shipping costs if you're located outside of the continental U.S (if you can't I completely understand and will still send you the item).

PLEASE DO NOT RE-SELL IF YOU WIN.

Most importantly, enjoy and play the shit out of this game if you win.

One day (and that day is likely still far off) I will own cabinets as well.

Although if I ever come across a three-player Double Dragon III cabinet, I will go to the ends of the earth to get it!

Quote from: neutopia6 on 10/06/2014, 02:16 PMRecently though I got a CIC, North American super system card 3 for only $20, so that was fucking awesome aha, thanks for sharing all the stories guys its fucking fascinating.
One of my few TG wild finds was a North American Super System Card (with case, but no manual) for $5 in a random stack of CDs at a flea market. So I know the "feels" man.


Quote from: HailingTheThings on 10/06/2014, 05:45 AMHenry Rollins, aside from supposedly "loving" Glenn Danzing a little too much, is pretty awesome. I still listen to the Black Flag album "My War" from time to time.

I remember listening to a "comedy" album from him years ago where he talked about playing, I think, Black Sabbath very loudly while his gay neighbors humped because he figured what better music to blast while sexering. Fun guy.

Not the biggest fan of Rollins or Danzig... But I about damn near shit myself from laughter when I saw this

Buy/Sell/Trade / For Trade: Deep Blue Box

I picked this up (along with the game) in a recent deal, and since I don't collect/keep/want the outer boxes of my games, I figured I'd offer it for trade here. As far as condition goes: one tab has a tear about halfway through it (see pictures), there are a couple of notable creases on the front (see pictures), and a few other small pieces of light wear and tear.

If any of you out there have any duplicate loose hueys, duplicate manuals, or common CIC games that you'd be willing to trade, or any other questions, then shoot me a PM.

Quote from: jordan_hillman on 09/05/2014, 08:49 PMI legitimately had no idea that there was a TG/PCE made specifically for the Korean market! This thread is absolutely amazing, and I agree with esteban; I would love to know the remaining titles that were released!
Does it blow your mind that there are Chinese PC Engines?

MIND IS DEFINITELY BLOWN!!! I don't really follow too many non-US versions of systems though. I only really care about regional differences is if I discover a game that warrants knowing of the JP, PAL, etc. version for some reason.

But these Korean, Chinese, and French versions (or knockoffs) of the TG/PCE are totally quiche.

Just picked this bad boy up for a really good price

IMG

But unfortunately the label is pretty beat up

Any advice/techniques on how I could repair/re-glue the label, or am I better off buying a replacement or custom label??

Quote from: RoyVegas on 03/10/2014, 04:59 PMTons of single item deals I got on the cheap but these were the huge ones.

4882 (If I recall correctly) sealed games in a storage bin that I found on Craigslist. I think it was .67 a piece that I paid for them. They were all 3DO, Game Gear, Sega CD and 32X games. This is a pic from the back of the car trailer I moved them in. They were 3-5 boxes deep.

Holy crap!!!! I live for the day that I find score some new old-stock, regardless of the system it's for. How long did it take you to sell all of that off?
