It's Aladdin in Cyrillic.

Ah, so it is.. Looks like it's true that you can still learn after school I wonder why they went for that option?

Got myself 2 very large boxes from ebay my first bulk purchase, heres what I got

[Ajay1986]

I hope RISE was the first game you played.

Nice collection overall.

Some bits and pieces I picked up on a recent business trip in Osaka.

Score Ash! Gunners Heaven/Rapid Reload is one of the best PS1 games released!
I could have guessed ud track down the Shining Force Manga!
Whats the game between the GB game and the PS3 game?

And I must ask, what are you upto in Japan Ash?

Nice lot! Pigskin Football Brawl, nice find on that, its a US Exclusive game if im not mistaken and usually is in demand! Not a bad game iirc!


EDIT: Might as well post my finds too

Firstly, the best find of the week is from a good friend of mine chrissyboy Dont think he is active on these forums, but used to be on a few others.
Unfortunately he has been clearing out his collection and kindly put this one aside for me which I picked up from him yesterday





I just love Multicarts, espeically the ones which feature hacks of games and pirate originals. If you check out the tiny thumbnails, youll notice a game you should all be familiar with, one which shouldnt be on the Game Gear :-P
Super Boy 2 aka Super mario Bros! Unfortunately, Marios movement is nowhere near as smooth as the controls we are used to and you find yourself dying too frequent.
I just find games like this really really interesting. Especially some of the gems Yakumo has been uncovering for the Megadrive recently!




Also from Chris was a lovely DC white label version of Sword Of The Berserk!

And here is the stuff im keeping from todays boot sale hunts

Alien Syndrome was ?2 in the end, its still sealed (luckly) as that label is stuck to the seal tight!
Finally got myself a cheap copy of Penny Racers for N64 I love the whole Penny Racers/Gadget Racers/Road Trip Adventure series, the cutesy version of Gran Turismo is perfect for me!

Nice retro tips book... And... How can you go wrong with a novel based on Desert Strike!? I think i might already have this one with my Road Rash on and (iirc) the Streets of Rage one!
Seriously, I feel sorry for the person who had to write these... No wonder they were freebies with Sega Power!

Ha Tiger R-Zone! Wooo!!!!
Okay, the hands photo on the box are HUGE cause this thing makes may hands look like a midget playing a Gameboy!
Gotta love the Tiger R-Zone for being 10 years late to the LCD Gaming party!
I used to have quite a few games for this system with the headset version, however I think i sold them years back on eBay. I really cant remember, shame really as this is the best version to play them on.
(If play is word that can be used with this awful system!)

Im off to play Penny Racers!

Hey, Adam.

The small cartridge in the middle is Space Manbow on the MSX2. It's a horizontal shooter by Konami that's kinda similar to the Gradius games and was exclusive to the MSX. I would have liked to have found a boxed copy but, at about ?30 for the cart alone, I dread to think what the cost would be.

What was I in Japan for? I was visiting Capcom, though I'm not allowed to say what for yet. Sorry.

You and your crazy writing career, im jelous! Im guessin it had something to do with Mega Man 9, however I wont push too much
I just hope you nabbed Capcom mugs, pens, other stationery and whatever was lying around in the offices!!!!

Nice find, im familiar with 'Manbow via emulation on the GP32/GP2X, one of the best on the system! Nice find, easily worth the ?30!

It wasn't MM9 but one of the staff I met was wearing a cool Rockman shirt that had an image of every single NES era boss on the back. Very cool.

[noobish hat]

Adam you bastard. I'm gonna blow you out of the water. Probably doesn't count, since I didn't buy this stuff recently, but I just rescued my entire PAL collection from my Dad's attic and it's now joining the Jap stuff, or it will be next week when I move house and have a room big enough to store it. You just wait. Ok, I've bigged it up too much now, it's not that impressive, but if you think of it as a carboot haul it is. ****, let me start over. Adam you bastard! I've just been to a carboot...

That t-shrt sounds awesome!

Was it like this?

I was playing my Famicom copy of Rockman 6 yesterday and the instruction manual has all of the bosses printed in it .... some cool artwork!

[Mayhem]

Nice... even though the T-shirt doesn't have them all (there are 46 boss robots in the NES series games).

Yeah, it was like that but blue. Must be from the same line, though.

Ooooo I got my copies of PAL 32X Space Harrier, Afterburner Complete and Toughman Contest) just awaiting on 36 Holes arriving. Then all I'll need is Kolibri, NFL, NBA, WWF, the big three and the cds.

It's Aladdin in Cyrillic.

I read that as acrylic, as in crayons.

hehehe, that's nothing. On the actual cartridge it says Alagguh instead of Aladdin

I recently replaced my old copy of Dragonball Z Shinbutoden (for SEGA Saturn): the newer one is alright, but the older had Dragonboll Z on the jewel case's spine.
