              just be careful with that m8 - my boss once spotted my psp in a work drawer, made a comment about how great they were-said nothing for 4 months then severely grilled me at an appraisal, saying that it interfered with my work....

              you probably have a nice understanding boss though!!

                Yup, my boss is mad gamer as well, so there's no problems here! I only use it at dinner, obviously.

                  Another Mega CD title arrived today, the best version of Popful Mail imo.

                    Picked up this little beauty on impulse...



                    I already have a large Master System collection, are there any good games that were Japan only?

                    Comment


                      @pharfetched yep probably the best version,

                      @shaurz very nice pick up mate, I'm sure Yakumo can fill you in on a few choice titles to get for it.

                        If you have the cash lying around (and the patience), you could look for the uber rare Great Ice Hockey. (or get the cheap US version)

                        Apart from that High School! Kimengumi has quite a following, but youre probably better off with the fan translation... (http://www.smspower.org/translations...lkimengumi-en/)

                          @NeoStuey, even better when a pcengine fanboy agrees,the pcengine version is pretty decent though, just the snes version which I've always thought was pretty meh

                          @shaurz, the only game that springs to mind is Rygar (Argus no Juujiken) which is ok, although nothing special.

                          Comment


                            Argus no Juujiken for the Master System is actually quite nice. There are loads of great Japanese games to get. Here's what I recommend in alphabetical order

                            Alex Kidd in Lost Stars
                            Alex Kidd in Miracle World
                            Alien Syndrom
                            Ashura (Commando)
                            Enduro Racer
                            Fantasy Zone
                            Fantasy Zone II
                            Final Bubble Bobble (Best version ever!!)
                            Kenseiden
                            Makairetsuden (Kung-Fu Kid)
                            Maoh Golvellius
                            Phantasy Star (3D mazes are amazingly smooth!!)
                            R-Type
                            Shinobi
                            Solomon's Key
                            Super Wonder Boy
                            Super Wonder Boy in Monster World
                            and Zillion Tri-Formation.

                            All of those games are Japanese releases. There are more great games but that's all that springs to mind at the moment. You can see all the covers and cart scans over at my site along with comments about each game. - www.segagagadomain.com

                              What are these units actually called?

                                That's a PSone (use of word "one" deliberate, whereas PS1 was the original bigger release) with a portable LED screen for playing on. Nice little unit really.
