    Todays arrivals....complete with shock and raging hard on.

    Shock - I though there were only 5 mini case sunsoft games..so when I saw lemmings I was like 'cool' that's 6 then.

    Raging hard on - Flashback....without a doubt my personal top retro purchase of the last year at least . By a mile. I cannot stop smiling now FB is finally in my hands


    And yes, I am ashamed to admit that, although I have 300+jp md games, I have only just got around to getting Daimakaimura, Altered Beast and Super Hang-On

        Picked up Dynamite Headdy and Gunstar Heroes for the Megadrive this morning in a charity shop. The latter was part of a cheesy compilation with the likes of Alex Kid and Altered Beast.

        I now have a reason to fire up my MD that's been collecting dust for so long.

        Does anyone know if you can get RGB cables for these things? If so, where from? Without that, it's back to TV tuning and grainy signals...

          Aaahh - the old "Classic Collection"!

          Well worth a look. Gunstar is still impressive today obviously - but Altered Beast, erm, isn't.

          Headdy is a laugh too. After my Light Crusader yesterday, this thread is feeling the Treasure love right now.....

            Try ebay. The connection is standard on the back of the Mark 1 machine. I got mine years ago from a local Tandys, dunno what the lead was originally for though.

              Yeah, I know. A day or two ago I said I wouldn't be buying anything else for a while but what can I say, I'm too weak ! Dragon Force II for a fiver

                Well, I only got it for Gunstar, I don't care for the other games at all.

                I didn't even like AB the first time round. It's unlikely I'll even load it up.

                  It must be loaded up mate, just for that somewhat crackly but immortal speech!!

                          Found this little gem in p.o.box, today.



                          It took TWO MONTHS to reach Italy from Japan...
                          ...I've already considered it as lost.

                          Very happy it finally arrived.

                            Ok long story, but to keep it short -

                            Went to post office today to collect a package I had redirected from parcel force. Clearly the woman at the till just picked up the first `parcel force redirect package` she could find as I ended up with some ethical wares cruelty free footware. I didnt realise till I opened it that it wasnt my package.

                            So instead of a few sealed US ps1 rpgs, I got some 7 size granny shoes.

                            Not impressed !

                            Infact as a result of this im going to go out of my way to be unethical *applies bleach to dog*

                            However this arrived through my letterbox :-

                            Mint copy of Samurai Showdown on the 3DO with all inserts.

                            So fairly happy

                              Frustrating! But that is why I always open my packages at the delivery office, to check their contents.

                              They weren't "Blackspot" trainers by any chance? (www.blackspotsneaker.org)

                              If they are, I am in need of a spare pair

                                Don't tell me that you don't like Flicky ... that is one of the all-time most addictive games that I have ever played!! You gotta give that gem a good blast before you dismiss it. But I agree on AB and Alex Kidd .. those games both suck.

                                Alex Kidd is somewhere inbetween Wonder Boy and Sonic, and nowhere near as good as either.
