nice finds!

[MonkeyJuggleDX]

How much was Karuraoh? When I was heavily into collecting, that was a right bitch to find and I never did get one

[mezzanine]

About ?22 before int shipping. I've seen it go for a lot cheaper recently but missed the chance to get it for a good price.

Just picked these up from Gamestation. Not really sure about their actual value but for fiver each they seemed to good to pass up

Wow nice haul. Last Resort is one of my fave shooters ever, easily in my top 10. I actually prefer it to R-Type and it has a great soundtrack too.
Magician Lord is fairly decent, was one of the very first AES carts iirc and bloody hard too.

Bargaintastic... I'd say

Last Resort is one of the best shooters around. Magician Lord is a fave of mine. Both titles have great visuals and sound.

Tough games though.

Yeah thanks seems it was a good bargain, to think I was in two minds about getting them at the time.

Been reading up on Last Resort and it's tempting more and more to buy an AES, though I doubt I'll ever be this lucky again and the prices for the majority of the games are far higher than I could ever afford.

Just a few bits at the min -

I've always wanted an AES, right from when it first came out. I had the opportunity to get one recently and I didn't take it. It would be a financial black hole and for once I managed to resist that strong impulse

heh, just go for it, I started again a couple of months ago after a 2 year hiatus. god homecarts are lovely

I should have posted these indivually but meh.

[Kubrick]

Financial black hole indeed. I must've spent about ?4K while I had mine. Lovely system + games, but you just end up shelling out ?100+ for games as though it's no big deal.

The only games I miss not having are BTG and the shooters.

[kernow]

It is true, I'm trying not to go too pricey on ngh as I have most of what I want on MVS anyway, and a cab. just doing it for fun.

(I did buy 8man and play it for 30 seconds, but it'll be put in again)

addictive - I've spent £100 on 3 more just today

AES is a total waste of time I think. I don't understand people's love for home carts. I really don't know why prices are so high anymore either, especially after prices totally fell out durind the mid to late 90's. It's a total word of mouth thing. MVS>AES.

[Kubrick]

I loved the homecarts, but I didn't love the fact they were worth that much money and only being played occasionally. Plus I feared the arse was about to fall out of the market when the PS2 ports started appearing, so I sold up and replaced them with said ports and a pair of NeoGeo Stick 2s

yep, MVS>AES, but who cares when you have both really.

prices? who cares, its fun, as for the market failing, I'm not into it for investments really, I doubt these carts will be going anywhere in the next few years.
