    A trough-load of games:



    Much like the PS1 game, Jackie Chan is a great scrolling fighter. Fish Files is like Manic Mansion/Day fo the Tentacle and surprisingly funny. The River King games are RPG/fishing simulators - released on the PS2, but these ones are much better. Lufia is a standard RPG affiar but not played it much.



    Kirby 2 was quite difficult to find and is well worth the cost. Picross used to go for ?50 but it's now quite cheap - and a bit rubbish really. Ultima is is a very good Zelda clone. Was really luck when I saw the Castlevanias for BIN for about ?5.


    Not sure why there are two cover versions of Star Wars. They're not as good as the SNES ones, but decent for GB. The Capcom platform games are brilliant as is Bill & Ted. Zeoth is a mech shooter and Rodland is a strange RPG/platform game. Not sure if Castle Quest has any relation to Castle Crashers, but this one is like an action game of chess.

      I love seeing all those old GB games! So many boxes that I remember seeing when I was v v young and studied games magazines, catalogues, etc, anything I could get my hands on... a couple I remember having too - Prince of Persia, Duck Tales, Skate or Die Bad 'n' Rad, ho ho ho...

      Nice score on the CV games, I've had a look for them before but never seem to have quite such luck. Out of question where are you find all of these? Surely not eBay for them all?

            River City Ransom is the fake one - kind of knew it, but was only ?2 or something.

            Most of these were from eBay and bootsales.

                    Oh yeah duh, the rating is still "RP"! I kinda ignored it because I didn't think it would be the sort of game to get pirated...

                        Profit is indeed correct, that is the PAL version in his picture.

                        My brother was one of the few people to get KDL2 when it came out. The game got a very very limited release however in the UK.

                        Lovely section of GB games by the way, quite a few of them I would like to get my hands on.

                          OTOH, it was Kirby's Dream Land 3 which we didn't get in PAL Land. Shame really, as it was quite enjoyable.

                              Decided to pick up some of the more notable computer games of yesteryear instead of the usual imports.
                              Also got Star Trigon for the arcade (still need to get a supergun and I really want the full kit rather than the bare PCB) and Akumajō Dracula (can't find a mint copy, ugh) for the SFC.
