Post everytime you get ANYTHING retro. We want to know (^v^)

Nice mix of stuff arrived today, all the games are complete and minty, some books and assorted odds and ends in there too

[highlandcattle]

what is that lego look-a like stuff?

[Tychom]

It's one of these, Capcom Secret File pamphlets that come out with Capcom games.

Advanced War for the MD - nice accompanying book with this but I bought it really for the superb artwork and game intro:

No kidding - when I first fired up this game and saw the intro, I don't think I picked up my jaw from the carpet for about 5 mins. Still can't quite believe that the Megadrive could actually do that ...

I got thunderforce III JP and CONTRA HARDCORPS JP COMPLETE! YIPEEEEE

[saturn-gamer]

Finally.. my favorite slasher (well, next to SS4.. which I don't have yet ;D). Thanks to the weak dollar currency and the deflation of the AES market.. or so it seems.

Just picked this up, if it counts

I bought a load of stuff today for Christmas since the wife won't be buying me anything (Buddist you see) or at least that's the excuse I told her



The small thing to the left is Puyo Puyo 2 for the Neo Geo Pocket Colour. Also I can now finally get to play Bio Hazard 4 ! Just a shame I had to buy a new controller to play it

Yakumo has a Gamecube!!!!!

;p You do know it's not a Sega console mate?

[importaku]

Correction Yakumo has a wii (^_^) & now he can play all those gc games he missed out on.

BTW yakumo mate, have you remembered you'll need a gc memory card as well because you can't save gc games to the internal wii memory.

I was and still am a massive SFC fan. I love that system, far more than the Mega Drive

Really?! What a ****ter ! More money to pay now By the way, what's the Bond game like on the Cube? I noticed it had E.A. on the cover so I never bothered to pick it up. Also what other good Cube games are there? I'm not interested in anything at all with Mario in it, sorry

I'd say get the original Pikmin game. Short and very, very sweet EVeryone should play it through once.

[Champloo]

Also what other good Cube games are there? I'm not interested in anything at all with Mario in it, sorry

If you can make an exception than I would definitely recommend picking up Paper Mario. Its good!

Otherwise Tales of Symphonia, Killer7, Metroid Prime, REmake and Resi 0 are probably my favourite cube titles. And don't miss out on Viewtiful Joe. Lots more I can't think of as well.

[importaku]

Well seeing as your japanese is pretty good yakumo id recommend some of the excellent jpn gamecube rpg stuff.

Homeland, giftpia are stunning adventures. You wont find anything like them.

As for other stuff...

Chibi robo
As already mentioned pikmin is good & pikmin 2 is even better
fzero GX
Metroid prime

Crikey a few games to keep you busy there man! I think you'll enjoy Pilotwings 64, a very relaxing game to play over xmas Oh, steer clear of the Bond games on the cube, Yakumo, there's a few (3 I think), but all are ****e

I'd recommend Pikmin 1 (2 is just as good) and Super Monkey Ball 1 (avoid 2) for your Cube, both will be cheap to find and take only a matter of seconds to get into. The rest of the retro-heads here are pointing you in the right direction for good games.
