I do, but my luck, had a little car accident in Dec. so between ticket and repairs no MSX :(
#2
Of course I want it but with the holidays and the price of a used car it doesn't look in the cards for me. perhaps if it's still around after the holidays and if this extra kidney sells on the black market.
#3
I really hope someone buys this so I don't have to spend the next month trying to figure out how to raise a grand.

One day I'll find a Loom manual...one day

i don't like monkeys or gorillas. never did.

maybe i was tramatized by planet of the apes when i was younger. when i'm at the zoo my least favorite part is the ape house. it always smells.
i liked that one movie though. project x where the apes kept dying of radiation sickness....

Quote from: Soviet Conscript on 08/05/2008, 02:32 AMI got excited when i saw the MSX in your title banner thing upon going to the page but didn't see any msx games or systems on the site  :cry:

some nice stuff at decent prices. if i wasn't already spending a ton of cash on imports from a few ppl i would of made some purchases
We have a Panasonic MSX and about 7 games in store right now, but we want to get more before we add an MSX section to the site.  It's a work in progress.
awsome, i acually sent your site an email yesterday with a question on the special order process. i'm looking for an MSX2 so i'll keep an eye on your site.

Quote from: turbo D on 07/22/2008, 04:49 PMI played it for an hour last night. The farthest I could get was level 3, which I died in.  :evil:
me to

wind inspired me to play. in the past level 2 was as far as i ever got but i finally made it to 3 several times. can't seem to get any further though.
#22
YS eternal PC, thats just the first game correct?

i know they eventually did the first game again as well as the second and bundled that (ys complete?) and i'm assuming thats not the version you have here.
#23
is there a map with YS I&II?

It goes straight to the game.
It must have a totally sweet Sega-screen-bypass chip to save time when gaming on the go! :wink:
in that case, PM sent

well just got my new PAL tg-16 today and it has raised a few questions for me

a number of people have claimed that the Euro tg-16 came packed with Blazeing Lasers and it even says on the box and in the manual about a "pack in game" mine being supposedly new didn't come with any game. also read a recent post by a guy in Sweden i beleive that bought his new and that one also had no pack in game. so my question is, was there acually a pack in game or was blazeing lasers just something completely unofficial that maybe the mysterious retailer that was selling these was handing out with the system and it acually was not in the box (like the power and a/v cables being in a seperate box)? also was it just a US copy or did it have its own cover art or manual. i was told they were the same games with just a hastely made multi language manual, any truth to that?

question 2

my system is totally in english from the box to the manual. i've heard it was also possibly released in Spain in the same manner that it was in the UK (very limited test selling) so does the spanish release have a diffrent box and manual all in spanish?

Quote from: PCEngineHell on 04/25/2008, 01:38 AMDid he replace the audio caps or just do the region mod?
amps upgrade as well as the region mod.

alright. got my turbo duo back today that i sent to turbokon. originally it came back but it seems that the post office beat the box it was in to hell and knocked something loose (not the first time this has happened to me) so my region switch was not working. talked to turbokon about it and he told me to send it back and he would fix it. got it back today so here's my review

i originally sent him a tg express for a sound fix and my US turbo duo for a region mod and an amp upgrade (even though my express wasn't having any major sound issues at the time.)

got my express back and it sounds great so i'm very happy with that.

as for the turbo not initially working with the region switch i fault the PO for this and turbokon was very quick in repairing it and sending it back. so now onto the duo

i was a little worried at first because the sound kinda crackled and went in and out for a second when i loaded up bonk but after playing it for many hours on and off since its running fine. i would even say it may sound a little better then it did before i sent it out. the switch works flawlessly now and looks pretty good. nice clean job on the mod. communication throughout the process was very good and always friendly. he was also pretty quick about getting everything done and sent out as well.

here it is playing a PCE game

heres the region switch

i was pretty pleased with the job overall. hope this helps in clearing up things a bit for you here.

Quote from: turbokon on 03/14/2008, 09:43 AMI know I'm not well established in this forum as the others, in fact this is the first forum I ever joined.  But please don't think that I will take your system and run.  I truly love the turbos and I wouldn't want to wish this to happen to any of you.  You can ask my wife (she get jealous sometime because I'm spending to much time with it). I have to lower my price to draw people in and when I become more established then I can probably charge as much as dean :D.  Please take a chance with me while my prices are low.  Its not that I need the money, I have a great job that pays well.  I want to buy turbo stuff without letting my know by not dipping into our shared checking account because she gets kind of naggy, you know what I mean.

I wouldn't mind sharing the load and profit with Nat or deanlite.

I will tell you what.  I'm willing to do mods for a few system for free (no labor cost) so that I can have a few good references to start.  Any takers?
seriously? i have a US duo i would love to get a region mod and a amp upgrade (right now the sound is ok but its only a matter of time).

Quote from: scrodamoon on 02/16/2008, 01:41 PMalso I am in Canada so i know 90% of Americans hate shipping here.
yhea, there are small annoyences that make some people think its more trouble then its worth.

1) the customs form
2) the slightly (sometimes more then slightly) longer time in the mail which can also = more chance for something to get lost
3) you can't get delivery confirmation either
#40
yhea...hmmm.

i resent the PM

Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Darius Alpha

Quote from: SignOfZeta on 11/03/2007, 11:35 AMIf only 800 copies of Strip Fighter existed, would you blow a grand on that? How about Deep Blue?

Darius Alpha is obviously much better than shit like that, but it is just Darius Plus with stuff missing. Whooptie friggn do. Maybe I have my facts wrong here (not being a Darius fan really) but here is how I see it. A boss Rush mode is nice, but since a code for Boss Rush can be found in Super Darius (same game)...Alpha is rendered worthless, and at least, "nigh worthless".

If I was going to waste a shitload of cash on something stupid like this, it would be the Bomberman '93 Special (or whatever its called) because it makes it so much faster to get a multi-player game going. When playing multi-player Bomberman there is always some idiot hitting B/II and backing out of menus. This was designed to make the process faster.
i don't think it acually matters if Darius Alpha is a good game or not. its a almost pure collectability thing based on rarity.

i know it sounds wierd but if every turbo game was 99 cents and easily avalible I probibly would just give up collecting, now yhea i would still play cause i love alot of turbo games but it wouldn't be as fun to me in a way. I suppose i like the challenge element in collecting and haveing a few things like Darius A out there that seem almost out of reach gives me something to shoot for. yhea it would be nice if it was also a super fun game but i wouldn't appriciate my collection half as much if everything was $1.

that being said, i'm glad most games are not super expensive and i get just as pissed when ebay tends to inflate priceing but i like the idea that a few games out there add a bit of challenge to the collecting aspect and its not like its a must have super fun game, so if you don't collect the price really shouldn't matter to you anyways.
