Post everytime you get ANYTHING retro. We want to know (^v^)

Is there any vectrex stuff you need to get? You seem to have everything now hehe.

Mr Boston Clean Sweep

(only 4 known copies, I had the chance last year to get one of the completes but was out bid in a private auction... it went for over $4,000! At least I've actually held it in my hands)

Aside from that... erm... some bits of promotional stuff and whatever prototypes are out there. Although I've buying four (release candidate) protos from a guy in the US as we speak. Nothing unreleased yet though...

Did you ever get one of those plastic bubble display stands for your vectrex, i remember someone on digital press having one it looked pretty cool.

If I could find one in this country perhaps... shipping would be a bitch!

Didn't they originally come from the Netherlands though? That wouldn't be quite so bad. In fact, would probably be cheapest to take a ferry over and collect in person if any others turned up

A few buys this last week for Saturn and Dreamcast.

For Saturn there's the typical load of crap love adventure games since I now have most of the other game types. Still I did manage to get the Japanese version of Ironman OX which is pretty rare. Another nice surprise was Hansha De Spark, which is an action puzzle game in which you have to rebound your spinning top off parts of the level in order to hit the enemy. Sounds basic but it's actually quite good. It looks fantastic as well since the whole game runs in the Saturn's high resolution mode.

For Dreamcast it's pretty much the same, love/adventure games and hentai mahjong but I did finally manage to get hold of Treasure Strike for a decent price.

Okay so no new games but these are kind of retro related. Got some shock boxes and inserts done for 12 of my MVS carts from southtown-homebrew.com. I'm very happy with them.





Going to need to get some more though.



Couldn't get a decent picture of them on display as I was running my camera from the mains and it would stretch.

[Pilotwings]

They look ****ing awesome NeoStuey

[tokyochojin]

Sweet man, looking very nice.

Saw a AES here for under fifty quid, very tempting but the price of the games are kind of off putting so kinda tempted by the MVS.

Makes me sick... That shining Force 2 would of been nice for the collection now some pig has it for like double just to make a buck.

Thanks guys.

The quality of the printing is really good and they can cut them to size as well. Which is ideal as I don't have the tools to do it myself.

They also do inserts for other systems like Atomiswave, PGM ans ST-V carts.

I got FF1 JP ngh and RB2/MOTW coming tomorrow

birthdays rock! pics when I get the other carts

Happy brithday Kernow!

Yes please post pics of your AES games when they arrive, would love to see them.

RB2 is on my wants list as well, MVS though.

Today from Big Seany, I got this.



Did a quick and dirty mod by changing the ball top and button colours. Sanwa ball top, Sanwa 30mm button tops, they're a little smaller than the grey buttons they replaced but work really well. 'Tis a very nice gaming stick.

[kernow]

here we go, man I love birthdays

now up to 31 MVS, 24 NGH I think

I now have a Japanese copy of Cosmic Smash for the Dreamcast. I've been looking for this game for A-G-E-S. Can't believe I actually have it now!
