Thanks speedy

It is pretty mint to my eye...one of the cleanest I've picked up I think.

I want to get a few SNES ones. Secret of Mana Enhanced, Zelda Parallel, Super Metroid Zero all appeal.

I'm after a copy of Run Saber for the SNES myself but my plan was to buy a US game, throw away the nasty US cartridge and put the PCB in to a Japanese case with custom label then make a cool Japanese style SFC box for it. Sadly it's pretty hard to find a US version of Run saber it would seem.

@Soundwave - Nice Shadow Dancer you have there. Picked up one of those myself a month back. Still a classic even today.

Yeah I know you would.
I think they do have value if they bring prices down perhaps. ?100 for a game is crazy really.

Tell me about different versions of 3 of my favourite snes games nakamura...

Secret of Mana Enhanced in a re-translated version of the original. It contains much of the plot that was missing from the original western release and had a lovely script.



Zelda Parallel Worlds is a redesign of LttP with new dungeons and sprites. It is considered the best remake of the game and was recently rebalanced in difficult in Parallel Remodel.



Super Metroid Zero Mission is a redesign of SM but with Zero Mission visuals and is really rather cool from what I have played.

Picked up Onimusha: Warlords (PS2) for ?1 from CEX at the weekend. Completed it about 10 or 11 years ago and remember enjoying it so well worth a replay for a quid

A few SFC games from the last week. Apple Seed and Power Instinct are brand new but only 500 yen each because the tops of the boxes are faded.

smash TV... my first ever super famicom game. i got that with a UK snes with mario and an adaptor.

The towel / table cloth / duvet cover on which those super famicom games are resting is also very nice.

Big Run, almost good. Camera needs to zoom out a touch.

Edit, no I was thinking of Drift Out.

I've always been meaning to give Secret of Mana a full playthrough but never got round to it.. would you recommend playing THIS version instead?

[nakamura]

Yes. It's the same, but better!

New SFC arrival for me today...The lovely Rock & Roll Racing, one of my fave Isometric games ever, not just driving but in general.





It's quite a tidy example as well & I'm pretty pleased to finally have it back in the collection.
