I was on the way home when I had some strange urge to pop in to Hard Off. Let's say it was a good urge

Finally got a copy of Nissan Over Drivin' with the keyring for only 200 yen plus Tetris Plus, Pastel Muses and Big Pachislot.

Oh and last weeks buys:



The 4 Point and clicks were 20p each

How much did the cat cost you?

Oh and the import game looks like a Super Deformed Gundam release, it's by Banpresto and they released little else for the SuperFami...could be wrong though.

[The Glider]

Yet another obscure (to me anyway) Playstation puzzle game arrived today called Swing. Looking forward to trying it out.

[Big Seany]

Just got a few things - MD Turtles Tournament Fighters for ?1.49 (Scope), then in Crime Converters got Rescue Shot (Namco kiddies G-con game) and Bust-A-Groove for ?1.50 each. On a non- retro tip, also got PS2 SNK vs Capcom: SVC Chaos and Parappa The Rapper 2 in there a few days ago for ?4 each. SVC is soooooo poorly balanced.

Second hand shops and boot sales ruuuule.

It's called SD: The Great Battle but that's all I know so far. I guess the SD stands for super deformed then?

Ok I've just spotted this forum and it appears I'm developing a new cash burning habit so I thought I'd say hello.

Not to long ago I was out drinking (like you do) and discussing the merits of the old ZX Spectrum 48k. Now after about 8 pints and one rather firey kebab I got home to Maison du Tsing and promptly bought 3 spectrums (yes I meant to buy 1, yes I was drunk). This it seems may have been the beginning of a new problem for me...

Following my first drunken sojourn on e-bay it wasn't long before I returned with a clouded mind and a credit card. This time the object of my desire was MB Games Dark Tower (Not technically a video game but retro game none the less with a big electric tower), however to date I've not yet acquired one as more than ?50 for something I may never use scares me.

Anyways after a rather unsuccessful bout trying to pick up one of these beauties I remember my 3 s spectrums and promptly bought a copy of the Lords of Midnght and Doomdarks revenge. Again these 2 have been gathering dust for some time now not owning a tape player that will load them...

So after this I hid my card and thought that would be that until I realised I'd never played Shenmue. One e-bay frenzy later and I owned a fully loaded dreamcast and shenmue 1 and 2. Once again these seem to be gathering dust.

So just last week I thought one last try and I now own an N64 and shadows of the empire. This one will leave the box this weekend and hopefully this will be my return to the world of retro ^^

Released by Banpresto in 1991, it's an overhead shooter that is pitifully poor. God knows how it managed to fill up a 6 meg cart.

Although... I must admit to quite liking it!!!!

[nekroxide]

Been a quiet week so far for goodies in the post. Can't be arsed taking pictures, but I won issues 4, 5 and 6 of Sega Saturn Magazine for ?4.50 posted! Sweet. And Zombie Revenge (NTSC-J) for DC for a quid.

And I know it's not really retro, but Skies of Arcadia Legends for Gamecube, finally!

You REALLY are missing out here... I played these games for the first time this year and they stole DAYS from my life, you need to get on to them asap.
