markinjapan.com is pretty good he answer's all my random emails ery quickly too

I second that, Mark is a top seller and I've had loads of cheap stuff off him.

Got a GameGear with Surf Ninjas, Double Dragon, Super Monaco GP, Dragon Crystal, Batman Returns, Super Kick Off, Power Rangers, Ax Battler and Sonic. a very kind present by my brother's gf (wise, wise girl )

Unfortunately, the console won't turn on
Well, when I'll be able to remove the odd screw near the cart slot I'll try to fix it...

Got a box of Saturn stuff this morning...but I'm stuck in the technological dark ages and don't have a camera.

X-Men: COTA - To replace my recently sold CPS2 original.

Guardian Heroes - Never really got on with this first time I owned it, Treasures trade mark slowdown freaks me out. Prefer Panzer Bandit too but may aswell give it another crack.

Street Fighter Zero 3 - To finally replace the frightningly ****e Dreamcast version.

All sold to me as mint, even though none are. Has the internet killed the true definition of mint? Annoying.

I was wondering if I should post these here in the Retro section since they are new items of retro items if that makes sense

Just when I thought I'd bought all of the Sega mobile phone straps, they go and bring out a 2nd volume Got all 4 today from the machine in Sega World today.


Also while there I checked out the Gashapon machines for anything interesting and found the Sega Gals Collection 02. I bought 5 and managed to get 3 of the 6 available PLUS the SECRET character which is this very sexy version of Honey from Fighting Vipers. No wonder it says for ages 15 and up on the instructions.



I'll be taking good pictures of the entire set once I get them

Nice arse, these gashapon worry me sometimes. I mean its strange your can think that about a bit of plastic??

[Kizzycrew]

Aaah, good old fighting vipers! She looks very nice ther,e too XD
today, I bought Grandia 2 for DC for ?15 from gamestation. Same price on Ebay, but I saw it and opted for it over Panzer Dragoon Orta. I'm rather pleased with it, too

[nekroxide]

Got a nice boxed complete NTSC US copy of Contra III for SNES today, mmm. Worth every penny of ?10.

[Big Seany]

Got the excellent DC King Of Fighters 99 Dream Match - which I have to say is the best of the series I have played so far. Have also purchased 99 Evo on ebay which I ended up getting for ?9.01. Will see how the two compare.

On a retro revival tip, went to Cex in Southampton yesterday and was extremely pleased to find a second hand Gradius V for ?18. I traded in a couple of old games (Madden 2001, Smackdown one) and ended up paying a tenner. What a game! Lovely graphics but still feels like a classic Gradius title. Tough as nails, mind. Whilst I was there, couldn't resist the PS2 Metal Slug 3 either. Loving that - beautiful sprites ahoy.

I am now jsut waiting for the die-hard Neo Geo Nazis to demand I be hung drawn and quartered for daring to play conversions of "their" games on Neo carts!

Oh yes - also got Crue Ball on MD in Gamestation. Not too shabby - although I prefer my Dragon's Revenge (aka Devil Crash).

KoF'99 is one of my favourites in the series behind '98 and '97. All those Neo ****ers complained about lack of change in KoF and then when they do get change they run and cry "What's happened to Terry! Boo hoo!!" then try and muster up as many other excuses to go slagging the game off.

During the summer of 2000 I spent all my time playing Perfect Dark when my mates were round - if they weren't I'd sit here and whack on KoF'99 for the DC with the hot summer sun beaming in. I love the game and I'm thankful I have it for the AES. I still play the DC version for the arranged soundtrack and awesome 3D backgrounds.

You can do some crazy ****z with K' in that game!!

As for me - I've just picked up Dragon Warrior VII and Vagrant Story. Waiting for some quality hashish before I start both.

[Keitaro]

Feh...well pretend I never said anything.

I second that; the man is a Godsend t'me, a crazy fan of the Super Famicom.

[dc-arena]

Got these two beauts on a recent trip to Den Den Town

[importaku]

Recycle my ass, those looks so minty i can hear the sparkling ping noise

Nice finds, shindou mario 64 is lots of fun. But nothing scares me more than seeing stickers on a N64 box. I once got one with a metal backed security sticker on, the kind that have atomic strength adhesive it took over an hour of careful peeling to get it off the box without destroying the lush artwork.

I shudder at the though of what would have happened if it had lifted the print off.

[dc-arena]

Ah, its ok because they both are wrapped up in a lovely seal! They are seriously mint mint mint, and they cost virtually nothing. Waverace64 was 609Y and Mario64 was 1550Y. "LOL" at the ?40 ebay prices..

[importaku]

Damn i now have to oficially hate you at geting such a stonking deal.

Hehe you lucky sod.
