Side Topic:  Does it matter if you play III first?  I bought 3 a few months ago and haven't played it yet other than to just toss it in and make sure the game worked.  Possible a stupid question, but is there a story?
I'm busy playing pinball, but I still drop by to visit.

There are no traditional story scenes.  But the games are true sequels.  The first game is the start of the resistance against the invaders and you free the earth.  Second game you are freeing the other planets.  And the third game you are on the offensive, actually attacking the enemy on their own ground and defeating them forever in the end.  (This is why Ray III uses the same color pallet for every stage).    During the Ray III credits it shows pics from all 3 games, but that's about it.

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere. You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

Don't know if I'll ever find the super rare Japanese releases I don't have.  I'm torn about getting into any of the reproductions.

Ah. Masaya at the top of their game. A masterpiece of game design and an all-time classic. It's so legendary that I don't feel worthy of owning a copy.

I was going to say the same thing.

Bardoly, are you putting these things in box protectors?  Not to sound like a collector, but that is a rare box/game and probably cost you a pretty penny.

It's not bad!  A little clunky at times, but hey, you're controlling a giant robot. :/ it's a dirt cheap game though, so if you have a sega CD, I wouldn't pass it up.
