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

Nothing special, but yesterday I received Destruction Derby and Ridge Racer Revolution in the post after buying both on eBay.

awsome i'd forgot about those, how do they work? dl games online from ninty or something?

Like the Nintendo Power stations in Japan, you would need to download the games onto a memory card (that plugs into the unit) from a station in China. Not sure how many games were made available in due time, but you get five as standard with the original iQue.

Nintendo did this at very low cost to try to circumvent the rampant piracy in the country. It must have worked as it released similarly modified hardware of other consoles later on.

awsome, what games did it come with, and what video connections does it support? just composite and s-vhs?

where can i get one!

[Mayhem]

Can't remember what games by default come with it, have to check. As said they are both brand new and sealed, so I dunno if I'll open them! As for getting one, they turn up on eBay from time to time... I only paid 50 quid for those two together (plus shipping).

How much would someone pay for Pulstar for the Neogeo if the cart had no sticker? I am selling mine. I purchased it years ago from Videogameimports, for a fair bit of money.....I was stupid then. I think the previous owner opened the cart for some reason so the cart has no sticker :-(

Heh... mentioned further up the thread, but here's what I wrote...

You actually need the standalone iQue handheld to use it... you get an extra controller and a multitap, but the former can only be used with the latter. You still need the original iQue to connect everything to the TV. So it's like a multiplayer add-on pack.

Yeah, it's the PAL version, but still just as uniquely Japanese.

Not alot but only £4

[MonkeyJuggleDX]

About two and a half years ago I killed maybe 6 mint Japanese FF3's when I was into the 'dark arts'

Always wondered where you got all those empty MVS shells I bought off you from

I'm guessing a home IVF kit along with some condoms and spare foetuses.
