OutRun 3D:

Awesome!

[jtucci31]

Yeah holy shit I'm jealous of those turbo games on the 3DS. I was just thinking about that, are there any Turbo games on the NA 3DS eshop at all?

[ToyMachine78]

I'm pissed. I bought Metal Slug 3 for Xbox thinking it was one of the backwards compatible titles with the 360 and its not. I just about spit my beer out last night when I started up the game and got a nice error window pop up! Grrrr...

I think that is a issue with a lot of the 2D titles from the original Xbox concerning compatibility with the 360.

[Sparky]

Since the snow has melted and our igloos are destroyed us Canadians are out and about got a few things today, starting to get back into comics.

Metal Slug 3 IS on XBLA.

Do the other SNK Xbox games work on a 360 too?

I know SNK vs. Capcom doesn't work on 360, which sucks because that's really the one game I really want from its library. (and they wonder why few people have used the 360's backwards compatibility, amirite?)

[ToyMachine78]

Yeah there are a bunch that work on 360. There are lists on the net.

My slow boat shipment from Japan finally came in after almost 2 months of waiting.  This is the first time I've shipped this way and while it was pretty darn cheap compared to sending something EMS the time was killer.

First off, the reason I sent it slow boat:



Boxed Japanese Sega Saturn (white) with all the inserts, paperwork, and necessary hookups.

Extra Sega Saturn White Control Pad, didn't expect it to come with a box!

Sega Saturn Backup Memory Cart



Then some LaserActive MegaLD love:



All are Japanese games, but play in English as well.

3D Museum (no 3D glasses; but disc, instruction sheet, and reg card are in good shape)
Hi Roller Battle (complete with obi)
Rocket Coaster (complete with obi)



Then some misc stuff



On the recommendation of Dan I grabbed this Lunar Art book which is phenomenal.  Nice artwork, lots of color, and lots of pages.

Tricky (Kick) for the PC Engine, I've heard lots of good stuff about this game and had a blast playing it for a bit last night.

Tarako - A Falcom Drama CD with Popful Mail, more stuff for my Popful Mail collection.

messa!! Tiny Treasure Box - A doujin music album based on Falcom stuff.  I mainly bought if for a Popful Mail track, but the Ys tracks are much better on it.


and this embarassing addition


Osouji Sentai Clean Keeper for the Nintendo Wii (Limited Edition)

This LE isn't too bad, it comes with a cell phone charm set, unopened CD, and the game with all the documentation

This game however... makes me ashamed.  I picked it up with the slow boat stuff since I figured I could probably sell it for some bucks, but I feel like some kind of smut peddler selling it. Essentially the goal is to clean "grimy spots" off the girls on screen using the Wii remote.  But of course, would I expect anything different from Idea Factory?

A good link about it: http://www.siliconera.com/2008/03/12/how-to-erase-angry-in-dirt-osouji-sentai-clean-keeper/


Finally, so this post doesn't end in (as much) shame, I picked up a new figure for my desk.  Everyone's favorite PC Engine heroine.....
(everyone and favorite are debatable)

Wonder Momoooooo!

[Nando]

I had no idea the Wii had softcore stuff, but then again. JAPAN!

[SuperDeadite]

Momo's face looks like she's got a dick stuck up that ass.

And what's wrong with that? 

Maybe it's a blue crab pinching her tush.

What's the game above the MSX Salamander?

[BlueBMW]

Parodius.  The Ys 3 is also MSX.

[Mathius]

Very nice, Beemer!

[Joe Redifer]

6 MSX games down, 100's to go! I'm very curious about the MSX version of Ys 3. I'm sure it's glorious!

[BlueBMW]

Its my only game on floppy disk so heres to hoping the drive still works!

[PCEngineHell]

I'm sure it's glorious!

Gloriously choppy frame rates/scrolling I'm sure.

[Opethian]

Nice Rushing beat   Are you going to get the whole trilogy?

[dingsbums]

[Opethian]

[dingsbums]

I made the inlay for Gunhed Special myself (scanned the HU Card, cleaned the picture & printed it).
The PCB's are Undercover Cops & Heated Barrel.

[Opethian]

damn UC is it a legit japan version? those are fuccen pricey!

[roflmao]

Nice! 2 Pop'n Twinbees in a row. I love that game.

[Nando]

That Zenki game has some great graphics! What's the SCD game with the green label? Very very nice pick ups.

[Ninja Spirit]

Afraid it's damn near impossible with Rushing Beat Shura being in the three figure club.

[Ninja Spirit]

Nice! 2 Twinbee Rainbow Bell Adventures in a row. I love that game.

Fixed. It's like Sonic and Rocket Knight Adventures fused together.
SNES Twinbee: Rainbow Bell Adventure

Which one of the three is the best one?

[Bardoly]

So how much did the Gunhed Special Version set you back?

[dingsbums]

No it's the World version - and yes I know about the differences but I don't really care because it was really cheap & it's fuckin' Undercover Cops  .

What's the SCD game with the green label?

That's Star of Quiz - not a good game really but when you want a complete
PCE collection ....  .

So how much did the Gunhed Special Version set you back?

11000 Yen on Yahoo in a bundle with 5 loose Trash games  .

[Bernie]

Got in Cho Aniki and Ai-cho Aniki.....  I feel.....different now having played them..  The music itself is kinda disturbing, in a strange way.

[Mathius]

Get that DVD now while you can. From what I have seen it is extremely cool!
