i scored big this summer but over the last two days, i got the following goodies:

Shanghai: The Great Wall (FINALLY)
Cutey Honey FX

and the following extras:

Return to Zork
Boundary Gate
Anime Freak vol. 4
Anime Freak vol. 1

and the first five Deep Spance Nine novels in japanese which i did not know even existed.  there are very few trek books in japanese and all were quickly discontinued. 

congrats on the Dreamcast buy DJLobo.  i love the fx, saturn and pc engine dearly but there are LOADS of great titles for the DC too.  enjoy enjoy enjoy. you are going to have a blast with those games.

Geepee, I just noticed that you picked up the first five Deep Space Nine novels in Japanese. Very nice. Are these novelizations of the TV series, or original stories. Something tells me the first few DS9 novels were not original stories. Anyways, good to see another DS9 fan here and nice buys.

Bought a second Saturn controller, so my son can play Dungeons and Dragons:  Shadow over Mystara with me.  The little fruitcake always plays as the elf though.....

What's so 'fruity' about wanting to look at a pretty girl with pointy ears?

(something that always bothered me - why was it 'gay' to watch a show about girls singing, but 'straight' to watch a show with huge guys in various fetishwear?)

[MissaFX]

I don't have the bandwith to show a photo, but Blue Chicago Blues and Last Imperial Prince came today from Risingstuff.com/sensei.

I just make fun of him because he always does stuff like this....his favorite color is pink, he likes girls dolls, etc.

Besides, he's terrible with the elf-he isn't able to handle the C button, so he would do better with the dwarf or someone more physical since he can only move to the right and jam on the attack button

Sounds like a manly man to me.  Don't all guys love the pink and prefer female blow-up dolls over male?

Two more NES games for me.......

Star Soldier and Legendary Wings both loose and cheap i got them both for $5.

[termis]

How hard was it getting used to driving on the right-hand side?

Not used to it just yet (this time), but you get used to it pretty quick -- a few days or so and you're good.  I did it before driving in Japan, and the reverse when I left Japan and went to Canada.

[Duo_R]

I have already played this but wanted to add to my collection!

[Tatsujin]

lol..thanx a lot

[NecroPhile]

Nice finds, Tatsujin.  I'm particularly envious of the Motteke Tamago - is it hard to find or expensive?

[rolins]

Picked these up for $2.99 a piece, even came with dust sleeve and manuals. Bought them at place called Play N' Trade video games that just opened recently here in Las Vegas. First time I've heard of these guys but appear to be helluva alot better than gamestop. They carry a small load of retro game although nothing spectacular, not even TG16 games. I did see a stack of Atari 2600 games and very tempting Intellivision console for $39.99! It's in great condition too.

edit: wait not a colecovision. A Intellivision I got them mixed.

Sky Shark is classic Toaplan shooting and it's fun fun fun. The controls are perfect even better with a joystick and I really dig the music. It's strange though, bits of the music sounds like something off a C64 especially in the 1st stage song.

[Tatsujin]

yeah..have lot of fun with that. i had big luck and found it complete/mint for 6250yen ($60) in the new mandarake ion akiba never seen one before around for selling.

[MotoRoaderMike]

2 packages came in the mail today.

100watt step down converter - converts 120v to 100v. I have 2 of these now...one dedicated to the XRGB-2 and the second for my Jp Saturn and MSX2+. Even though the japanese consoles can handle 110v, I'm not taking any chances.

Multi Scart box - Met a guy kind enough to sell me one for decent price. Can't find these anywhere in the U.S and some european stores don't wanna shipping internationally.

[drdre]

Well, I got my copy of Alien Soldier yesterday, so I went out today to get a Game Genie so I could play it 
I'm up to level 17

Wish i had border down given it's current value though i'll get it one day.

As for the game with the ninja that is ninja cop saizou the,jpn version of wrath of the black manta.

The game is different to it in graphics and music compare to the u.s version.

Here's the video that shows it.

[drdre]

Went out to this giant flea market they have twice a year...
Mostly got 'action figures' like aliens, x-men, barnyard commandos, etc.  Also picked up In the Hunt (PS) and Gain Ground, Strider, and Lightening force for the Genesis
