Lastly as a bit of a wish list, im keen to grab the Super Grafx games which i dont have ( pretty much all of them and any Dragon Quest Related items)

Nothing against you personally nor do I wish to derail your thread, but what is it with people's infatuation with having to have mint games? I understand the need to have them in good condition (how I like mine), but mint? Games are meant to be played, not sit around looking pretty.

mrhaboobi · 02/09/2012, 02:45 PM

Hey no worries.. i get asked this alot, normally not so nicely either ;) , yes i like my items ( anything i buy ) new/mint thats just me, since i was a kid i tended to get a new game ( not very often ), play it to death, but keep it in as new condition as possible. Its just a personal thing for me, i clean my shoes, i clean my car, i keep everything as tidy and new as possible.

I like being able to see my games in new condition, this doesnt mean i dont play them, i have ps2/ps3, xbox 360, i play all those games aswell, ( 160 hours on DQ8 for ps2), but i still keep all those boxes, cases, manuals etc in new condition, im sure i could trade my stuff back into a shop and they would sell them on as new.. So yes games are meant to be played, and they are, but there is no reason they cant also look pretty. a bad analogy, but if i was into prostitutes id also want them to look "pretty" and im sure they get "played" pretty hard, no one wants an ugly hooker, i guess some people dont mind, but id rather have a good looking one ;) ( no offense to anyone if you are an ugly hooker) ;)

PikachuWarrior · 04/28/2012, 11:51 PM

Ebay has one of the Turbo Mags for $40 + whatever shipping costs. Pricey though.

mrhaboobi · 04/28/2012, 11:52 PM

Yes, that's why they have been on there for a while
