      I have slowly been building up some 32x stuff. You're clearly ahead of me Gary but I'm not trying to get it all per se. Keep up the good work! I'm just keeping what falls into my hands. There's also no way I'd pay the money demanded to pick up Darxide, T-Mek and Primal Rage. Anyway, this is what I'm up to:




      Ahh but you have the best 32X game IMO...Kolibri, which I am sadly lacking.

      As for the big three....who knows....I may get them someday.

      And guys no, its not all the games.

        Things like these are an exception, as they are clearly bloody rare as hell.

        In such instances, utter scarcity renders the ugliness of the coverart impotent and irrelevant. Retro Game Collecting Decree #11.

          That lot cost me $50 bucks, all complete. A bonus was that the PS1 had a modchip


          Another Lufia (this one is missing the map as well ) for $30 bucks.

            A few more buys this week including a Saturn video preview disc by Koei featuring more of their historic crap and Gotha II. Also Super Double Dragon for the SFC. From what I remember the Japanese version had quite a few differences from the US release plus it also has a cool sound test.

                        It'll be a PAL copy of SF2 Turbo for SNES. The version that came in a tin.

                          Ha! Im afraid its not

                          Its this...



                          Ive waited about 5-6 years for this. Ever since I got into collecting, I always saw this as the one title id never own. Considering I was about 16 when I found out about it, the price tag it held always seemed so far off and something id never own due to the scarce amount avaliable. A limited number all already in collectors hands!

                          However, the other week I tracked down a seller on eBay France selling his third copy of this game! He is based in the Czech, the homeland of this game and must have stumbled across a few recently or something.
                          Luckliy with a snipe and not much interest on this item i was able to snag it quite cheap
                          I was worried a very well known SMS collector (who only needs this game) was gonna snag it.

                          Now some may argue that its not good enough because there is no manual or poster. That however doesnt bother me. Im collecting one of each game for the early systems. I play games, not manuals
                          And considering ive waited 5 or so years for this, i decided to finally get hold of it!
                          If i come across another later down the line with a manual and poster, then great, but right now im very pleased

                              I was quite surprised how low that one sold for, nice grab. The manual will be a pain to get hold of separately, but the poster is exactly the same as the one that came with the GG version and you can pick that up for under a tenner .

                              One of the few rare games that is actually decent too, enjoy.
