[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: RAFFLE: Dungeon Explorer - WINNER ANNOUNCED!]

Awesome!  I'm sorry for the delay - I have been off the grid for a few days but I'm back safe and sound.

I'm extremely excited about this!!!  Thanks so much and I'm sending a PM now.

What an awesome foray into the community

Thanks again!

The problem is - anyone who actually had to resort to taking that class.....would probably fail, haha.

I really don't understand why people don't take just a few minutes to make a more detailed listing.  As the seller, you are trying to make the most amount of money, but so many sellers throw something up like:

"mario for nes no manual paypal only plz"

Like they are on the subway and making a quick listing before they forget or something.  It is really odd.  And I understand if you have 1,000 listings, but it really surprises me when it is someone with just a few listings. 

Course, we now have the whole "ebay mobile" thing, which encourages it, so I don't know. 

I guess not everyone is a marketing expert, but some of it seems like common sense...

Wow...I just read through this thread.  I'm new here, so I clearly missed all this...'fun.'  Hahaha - this is pretty crazy stuff - but very entertaining.

Thanks everyone for your advice and kind words!

I'm already a video game collector of other consoles, so don't worry, I understand about the 'addiction' and the expensiveness (is that a word? heh).

I'm really excited to get started.  Step one though, is to get some consoles

Thanks again!

I'm so confused about what happened in this thread, haha.

I'm new here and some of the comments I've seen here aren't exactly the most...inviting.

I'm hoping this is an exception and not the norm.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: RAFFLE: Dungeon Explorer]

Awesome - what a great idea!  Great to see people wanting to help others out.

I'm in for sure.

I also wouldn't mind to pay for the shipping, if the planets are aligned for me and I'm chosen.

Thanks!

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: RAFFLE: Dungeon Explorer]

So, I'm new here and don't know if I 'qualify' or how this works, but if so, I'd love to be included.  This is one of the games I'm looking to get.

So is this free?  Do we pay shipping?

[NEC Console Resource / Re: Hello! I am here to steal your knowledge and use it for my own evil purposes!]

Thanks very much for the suggestions! 

Bonk's Adventure, Legendary Axe, and Dungeon Explorer are on my list of games to get.  As well as Somer Assault.

I have some odd games like Jantei Monogatari (various), and Quiz Marugoto the World (various).

I have no idea what a "super system card 3.0" is but I'll be doing some research now

Thanks!

[NEC Console Resource / Re: Hello! I am here to steal your knowledge and use it for my own evil purposes!]

Hello - I like all kinds of games, but mainly platformers, shooters, and RPGs.  I have a 27" color TV (non HD, non flat-screen).   I don't have a huge budget, so I'll be starting small and building up. 

And I'll definitely need to play JP games because I already have a few of them. 

Thanks!

I've noticed that seller's pictures before when I was purchasing some GB games.  Especially for those, there is the tiniest little GB game in the corner.  Apparently he hasn't heard of the 'crop' button.

Or he's an evil genius and his odd way of doing pictures is actually getting him more sales. 

My guess would be the former, but who knows.

[NEC Console Resource / Hello! I am here to steal your knowledge and use it for my own evil purposes!]

Hello!  Please ignore my stupid thread title.  But yes, this is my first post.  I am very much a newbie (noob, n00b, idiot, whatever you want to call it, I don't care), when it comes to NEC consoles. 

So, I'm sure some of you will call me a heretic and banish me to hell, but I've never even played an NEC console! (gasp)  But that is why I am here!  I recently obtained some TG16 and TGCD games, and over the last couple months I have been doing research about the systems and I have gotten increasingly interested.

I never even heard of a TurboGrafx growing up, and it was only a few years ago that I found out what TG16 stood for.  But, in a way, this is also incredibly exciting!  Because I get to experience it all for the first time, much like I'm sure many of you did as children.

My first goal - is to get some consoles that don't cost a million dollars, and play some of the games that I've never had the chance to play.  I'm very excited about it and I hope to get some good information here.  I only have a few games right now but I'm definitely looking to get more, so if there are any MUST-PLAY titles, let me know!

Thanks very much for having me here and please don't kill me.
