And so my collection begins (again)!

Bomber Up!

[CrackTiger]

If you want to maximize your fun, you should get in PC Engine games. If you paid any kind of collectors price for that, you could have gotten Bomberman, Bomberman '93, Bomberman '94 and potentially a PCE system for the same price.

Not sure what the collector price is for Bomberman, but I doubt I could get all that for what I paid for this game.

...and if you are truly an old school gamer you need to open the case and throw it aside on the table/desk, somehow get a liquid stain on the manual, knock the case onto the floor, don't pick it up, and make sure to step on it 12 times over the next year and half. You should also lose the hucard in a drawer somewhere and move homes at least 4 times over the next 10 years.

12 years from now you will find the hucard in box with other things like elastic bands, receipts for groceries, paper clips, burnt out lightbulbs, old dead batteries, and a bunch of Entertainment Weekly magazines from 8 years ago. The hucard paint is scratched to ^&%$ and there is a strange brown crud where fingers and food stuffs have come into contact with the Hucard. You now go on an epic journey for the case.

You find the case in your garage in a box behind some bottles of used oil. In the box is also an old Blu-ray player, some s^%ty iPhone 5s, and a bunch of old HDMI and component cables. The case now looks like straight up 100% garbage.

So, 12 years from the original purchase date, you find a newish jewel case and put it around the water (or Pepsi Lime) damaged manual, you spit on the Hucard and wipe the crud off with your t-shirt, put it all together and place it on your shelf like a prize....the way it should have been treated from day one.

This is how the rest of us did it. For the true organic old school gamer anyway. Any other way is just fake collecting. You have to suffer with at least 10 years of stupidity before you can truly value your collection

With all of these games (a lot of them) and TG16 (3)/TG16CD (1)/TurboDuo (1) that I have bought and sold over the years, I have suffered enough.

Hehe.  I don't know about that.  I've always been a hardcore collector since I was 11 years old (this was when I first started gaming with the NES).  Even to this day, games that made it through the decades that I didn't sell, they remain as beautiful condition as when I first opened the shrink wrap, probably why I never let anybody else handle my games.  lol.  People generally just don't take care of their games, or anything else for that matter.  Being a collector, I can never understand that mentality. 

[bob]

one thing that works in our favor, since hardly anybody HAD a TG back in the day...there wasn't anybody to trade with.  Therefore, many games have survived in pretty good shape.  Also, lets face it, the majority of people outside these forums probably didn't even play them much (or else they WOULD be in these forums).

[Ayce]

I was playing my NES Bomberman yesterday... man that game sucks... I can't believe that they were able to turn it into such a good franchise after that.

[neutopia6]

Bomberman on the NES was something I've enjoyed, especially after the speed boosts and the timed bombs, 60 levels drags on though lol, looking forward to the TurboGrafx ones when I get my hands on them, I refuse to play it on my Gates of Thunder CD though lol.

Eh, although most of my NES game boxes got tossed back in the day I still have all of my original games and they are in perfect shape.  All of my original Genesis, N64 and PS2 stuff is still complete and in damn good shape from the 3 moves I've made in my lifetime.  I was always kind of anal with my stuff and only traded games with a couple of friends who were the same way.

I was totally kidding. I was poking fun at the militant collectors who sometimes have ridiculous guidelines for being a true gamer.

I was probably thinking a few instances that I had probably done this with an n64 game or something (treated it like garbage) . Which is understandable. I treated them with the respect they deserved 

I always treated my tg16 stuff in a godly nature.

Yeah, I kind of figured. 

[neutopia6]

Of I wait to have an actual copy it'll be that much more interesting, I enjoy actual games on actual hardware, original copies lol.

[Nazi NecroPhile]

Last I checked, the games on the three(four) in one disc are actual games and play on actual hardware, but whatever.

I never did find my original Bomberman '93 manual.  I did find the box decades later, crushed with the plastic insert still inside it, in my moms attic.

Then you really should take the time to learn the actual meaning of the words you just said lol. Lest you give the impression that you're a pretentious fool admist others who are already knowledgeable on the subject.

If you were truly an authentic game connoisseur, then you settle for nothing short of the unmolested PC Engine original versions of those games, played only on an original white model PC Engine, displayed through rf on channel 96 of a crt television.

Why did you take a copy of the emu warez 4-in-1 disc out of the hands of game players if you hate it so much?

[neutopia6]

Holy fuck lol, no matter what I say people get pissed off on this site ahaha.
I got the disc because 1, it came with my Turbo Duo, and 2 because Gates Of Thunder is fucking sweet, already have Bonk 1 and 2, figured I'd hold off on the secret Bomber man until I get an actual copy, why that pisses you off is beyond me, of all the things in the world to be frustrated about ahaha.
I'll start collecting PC Engine after I get a good grasp of the TurboGrafx stuff, I'm aware its all original, I'd just prefer to have something to look forward to when I buy the actual NTSC Bomberman Hucard, glad that pisses you off.

I didn't read anything in this thread,  but I wanted to tell you to suck my left one.

Also, you can't do anything correctly.

 

[neutopia6]

I agree, and gladly lol.

[Nazi NecroPhile]

The only one that sounds frustrated and pissed off is you.  BT and I thoroughly enjoy mocking the 'special' people.

[neutopia6]

Yeah, I was having a bad day, sorry for being a twat. XD
I know what you guys mean, and you understand what I mean aha, nothing like getting a new TurboGrafx game.
