Like the title says ..I am looking to buy/trade for a complete copy of the US version of Neutopia 2. : )
wow...no one with a complete extra huh :(
They do pop up on eBay pretty regularly. And you won't necessarily get ripped off; I bought mine for $34.00, and it had the manual. I don't think it ever came with a jewel box, though. I think all the '92 and newer games came with the vacu-formed plastic tray.
As far as *with* the outer cardboard box, well...you may have to wait longer on that one.
I would be happy with a complete, card/case/manual...only ones i ever find on Evilbay are card only (one complete with "stained" manual)...or assinine prices :(
Yeah. There's some cheap Japanese versions, but the North American releases are terribly over priced. [-X But I'm sure a reasonably priced one will pop up.
A few months ago there was a hidden stock of games that went up all from the same seller. No one seemed to know about it. I was going to nab the Neutopia games, but I could only shell out for a few. But everyone who bid on the games made out like criminals. hehe. All games were w/card and manual. I think I paid 12 bucks each, give or take, for Dungeon Explorer, Raiden and Galaga 90. No one paid much more than that on the other auctions. Some people only paid 5 bucks for games. lol. Though Neutopia and Neutopia II were a little higher. Closer to 20 bucks. I didn't want to get into a bidding war over it and jack the price up and end up not buying it. I'd rather have the bidder get a good deal. :wink:
But just wait around. Those things pop up once in a while.
Thanks for the advice guys :) I should be happy...i just got my copy of Sol Moonarge from Fleabay today...MINTY MINT for $14.5...($21.5 with shipping from SWEDEN!!) :)

Sounds like greatdeal+tehbestselectionBay was the way to go. =D>
last time I looked, I only found 1 copy of Sol for$60 from HK :)
I see the US version of Neutopia 2 complete with cardboardbox, tray, manual and hucard with slipcase going for around $60. I'm sure it can be found for cheaper, but that is what I've seen it go for complete.
Here is one dude

Dang! I should have made a bigger fight of that "hidden" auction. Neutopia and Neutopia 2 went for about 20 bucks each (w/case and manual). ](*,)

But without the box, and that's what drives the price up.
Man, I just saw a Neutopia go for under 10 bucks. Good deal.
I have the PC engine version....I would like the US release...lol

I just got a copy of Neutopia II a couple days ago. Nice graphics and really nice chip music, but such a Zelda rip-off it's not even funny!

Sure is but it's a damn good zelda clone at least.
I over look neutopia 1&2 in it's day since it was consider that.
I'm just glad i gave both a chance afther all this time instead of ignoreing it.
patience is a virture in this world for sure. these games were all printed / pressed in the HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS, right? ? there are plenty to go around - just keep hunting (level headed).
I'm doing my best to use patience (definetly not a virtue of mine)...lol
Hey,
I think..I have an extra copy i believe that does have the manual in a generic CD case, if i remember correctly. I'd have to go dig through my turbo games. I'd be looking to trade do you have a trade list of any sort, I was on a furious quest to get complete copies of all the US games a while back, and i really think there is only 30 or so games i don't have in some form w/ some being the big ones that wouldn't even be in a trade discussion. So my question before i look would be what do you have to trade, nothing has to be complete i just have to check if i indeed do still have the game, and what games i am missing.
Thanks

so that auction went for $66...good bad???
seems fair. Did you win it? if not here is another auction:

What the hell was that slip cover used for? Storing tobacco? :lol:
OUCH...didn't even see that
That's the limited edition Brown-Trouser slip cover that was only given to super "special" customers.
Yea....but that version kinda smells funny...lol
Alright dude, I found another one. THis ones a bit expensive, but it seems to be in good condition.

That's too expensive. I'd wait for a deal more like this one (http://cgi.ebay.com/Neutopia-II-Turbo-Grafx-16-RARE_W0QQitemZ140183698830QQihZ004QQcategoryZ62053QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem).
that one ended already. Besides, he said he wanted it boxed. I do like the price difference though, haha. I guess you have to pay if you want that cardboard box.
Also that copy didn't even come in the Turbografx game case. The manual was just put into a CD case. Not a big deal, but it's nice to at least have the proper case.
Neutopia II never had a 'proper' case, but feel free to spend an extra $50 for the cardboard box and plastic tray.

Really?! Interesting. I obviously had no idea about that. :-k I guess I have to ask why that is. :)
TTi tried to save a few pennies and released the later games without a normal case; instead substituting a cheap, little plastic tray to keep the HuCard from sliding around in the box.

It's amazing; they're willing to spend all kinds of dough on a lame marketing campaign (i.e. Johnny Turbo), but won't give loyal customers proper cases. ](*,)
They really were hopeless here in North America. [-(
No doubt. It probably would've been nearly as cost effective to eliminate the box entirely and use shrink wrapped Japanese style cases, and nobody in their right minds would prefer a cardboard box over a decent case.
Thanks for the help guys (espically TurboD) :) I would prefer mint/complete...but that $16.xx auction was pretty sweet. : )

That auction has Neutopia II in a jewel case. Just to make sure, N2 didn't have a jewel case but just a cardboard box right? Still nice that he throws in a jewel case anyways for neatness and support.
Yeah N2 was post-jewel-case-era.
although, all my Turbo games end up in jewel cases whether they originally had one or not. I'll print out clean spine labels for them, too, and I try to match the font I use to the font used for the game title on the manual.
