Come on, someone has to have a pair, as well as a wallet.

I do appreciate the information/advice. I acknowledge I made a mistake, consider lesson learned. Also, this was not meant as an investment, or insta-collection. I just want to play the game and enjoy it.

Investment portfolio? Doubt it. Just a guy that likes to play video games.

I have never been an ISO guy. Not to knock the use of them, I just have always wanted to have the actual cartridge/CD to play, just a weird personal thing. I like looking at the manuals, maps, and just other associated stuff that comes with the games. That Turbo Product Guide is awesome, I want some of those Turbo Shades.

The $70 I saw was case and disc only and featured numerous scratches but played perfectly for the seller (not arguing, that was just the one I saw). Just based on past experience, I have heard that before. If you want I can post it on eBay with a BIN of the appropriate difference between the fair price and what I paid to bring the average selling price back down to the fair amount. I think the lowest we could get it based on these 3 transactions would be $100 average. Of course, I am kidding but it would work. Is there any "fair" price list out there? You know just like a rating system on rarity or a fair range of prices.

Necro, how did you know I was wearing shorts?

That dude had to be desperate..... I admit I was that guy.... please let me mockery begin. I saw that other auction for case and disc only ($69). I just enjoy these old RPGs and am willing to pay a stupid amount for a complete game. Plus sometimes I get in bidding wars and like to see how high someone else bid and usually get outbid but just ended up winning this one. Did you see the Dungeon Explorer II that same seller sold? I think it went for $320ish. That same seller had Dragon Slayer, DE2, Exile, YsIII, Valis III, Ys I&II, and Lords of Thunder for a BIN of $650... that was the better deal but they took it down and sold individually. So at least I admit I was the idiot that paid that amount so oh well. Overall, I still think I am a net positive on games. I paid $16 for Panzer Dragoon Saga new. Please let the mockery begin or at least post other stories of over priced game purchases.

I just picked up a used tennokoe bank card. What are the doss that a fan translated Ys IV will work with the original saves from the card?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: What PC-Engine Stuff did you get today?]

debating on getting Tengai Makyo II and Y's IV. Playable without knowing Japanese?

Also, has anyone bought any of the PC Engine lots off of eBay? It seems like an interesting/fun thing to get just to see what all you might get and dig through.

I like Strider. I do not think it really should demand the price it does, but I would gladly pay $30-40 for it again.

Yeah, I still have my Turbo Grafx-16 and CD.

I've been a "gamer" since I was a kid. The DUO was my halo system since I never saw one as a kid. I eventually traded around 20 Star Wars figures for a Turbo Grafx and CD system around '97. Then bought Dracula X for PCE. I just recently (today) received my Duo-R from a connection in Japan and I'm done. PS4 is back in the box and dust is blown off all my CD games. Only problem is my one year old won't put my avenue 6 controller down. I just feel like these are games I want to play vs the garbage that is out now. Just wanted to tell my brief intro and say I'm all for finding these "retro" gems.
