I was fully expecting to lose this auction a few seconds before it ended, but nobody else ended up bidding.  Button-mashing fun arriving at my door (in like 3 weeks from now...).

Jossshhhhh...Legendary TurboTrollX-16: He revenge-bans PCE Developers/Ys IV Localizers from PCE Facebook groups and destroyed 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Josh and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner (extortion/blackmail!), never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

UglyJoe, that controller for the Hyper Sports/Olympics games is AWESOME!  The spring loaded buttons are the best for that kind of game ever made.  I pull that controller out every now and then, it's a ton of fun.

Thanks for the sale heads up, probably just snagged it in time (Sunday 3:27 AM).  Was going to wait because I am a little behind on my new games, but at that price, it can sit on my shelf for a little bit.

Wow, what a haul! 

I was just watching a review of Sylphia by TheGreenMonkeyKing (The same guy that runs retrogamecave.com) - it looks like a pretty unique shooter.

BlueBMW

Its not a bad shooter at all really.  Though its hard to say if it justifies its high price tag or not... :-k

Beamer - I sent that huge lot via Parcel post on the same day... should reach you in a few more days if haven't already.  I just got back... damn long flight that had me connect thru Moscow!!  good to be home. 

I'll upload pics later - but I got DE2, Bloody Wolf, Cadash from Beam, and US Cotton from Hoobs !!

Metal Slug X!! I played the heck out of that game on the PS1. It is a great port and I love the combat school mode.

Went to a local game store and picked up some games

32X(All boxed): World Series Baseball, Space Harrier, Virtua Racing, and Zaxxon Motherbase 2000.

NES: Kirby's Adventure and Karnov

SNES: Mr. Do and Mr. Nutz

BlueBMW

Isnt 32X world series baseball kind of a pricey title complete?  I seem to remember that it and spiderman were the two expensive US 32X titles.

Damaramu

Posted this on a couple of other game-centric forums a few days ago:

Today, I picked up a minty non-TMSS High Definition Graphics Genesis for $14.99 at a local shop.

This baby looked like it came straight out of the box with nary a scrape or scratch. The power button has a nice solid click when you power it on and the volume slider is nice and firm (no button wiggle).

PunkCryborg

Cool Bangai-O Spirits!
Damaramu that sega looks great but why do people want the non TMSS model? what difference does it make seeing the little warning screen or whatever it is?

PunkCryborg

My dirt mall (flea market) pick ups today
/photo9wa.jpg

The Galaxian works great too and is surprisingly fun!
Played some Faceball with my friend tonight, it's ok but I wanna try out the PCE version.

Mathius

The soundchip on the first generation model 1 Genesis has superior sound quality compared to the other models.

PCE Games countdown: 690/737 (47 to go or 93.6% clear)
PCE Shmups countdown: 111/111 (all clear!!)
Sega does what Nintendon't, but only NEC does better than both together!^^
<Senshi> Tat's i'm going to contact the people of Hard Off and open a store stateside..

Mathius

Model 1 is the better sounding IMO. Here is MN12BIRD's video that offers more info.
I am not sure how some of those YTers commenting on the first vid can argue that the model 2 is better. I understand what they are saying, but hearing both samples the model 1 sounds much clearer.

Joe Redifer

Youtubers just like to troll.  Experience with the subject of discussion is not necessary.  They also are over-dramatic about everything.  I learned this a few days ago when someone accused us for "fucking up" by not including the shitty Vectorman games in our run and gun video.
