Slightly lame and embarassing purchase *cough*

Sure..but still a bargain.

Got Super Adventure Island, Super Tennis, Shadowrun, Kirby's Dream Course and Actraiser for SNES in Oxford yesterday. Shadowrun and Actraiser both boxed and sealed - haven't opened them yet - don't know if I will! Also got a multitap and an action replay for SNES. The collection grows and grows......

Bloody hell, where'd you get those from? And how much, if you don't mind me asking? Can't believe there are still copies of Actraiser around that are sealed...

Recently I picked up:

Sutte Hakkun (SNES)
Motor Toon Grand Prix 2 (PS1, USA & UK)
Tomba 1 & 2 (PS1, USA)
Guru Logi Champ (GBA)

That's about it I think.

Got them all from Gamestation in Oxford. They had two copies of Shadowrun and two of Actraiser - both sealed - Actraiser ?14.99 and Shadowrun ?19.99. The other carts were all ?2.99 each. Needless to say, I was over the moon. Would send pictures but have no digi camera! They are both NTSC, btw.

I might be wrong but they're probably reseals. I'd be very, very surprised if their were still sealed copies of shadowrun around. Were SNES games ever 'sealed' anyway?

AAAAAHHhH that explains it. NTSC and gamestation are the key words. Gamestation re-seal their SNES stuff if it's in tip top condition and the NTSC versions are knowhere near as hard to come by as PAL.

Still a damn good buy on Shadowrun though. Would have bought it if I'd seen it.

I think superstarbeejay has it spot on - now you mention it, I can't remember there ever being cellophane on cartridges - or can I? I am pretty sure that they were just "as is", with the Seal Of Quality (TM) sticker on them. Even so - the two I bought are both in good nick, and are both very entertaining and original moments in gaming history.

superstarbeejay - phone up the Oxford branch of Gamestation - they still had another copy of Shadowrun - maybe they can deliver? It was ?19.99.
