    Yes as sets go it's one that was done really well a perfect tribute to the famicoms 25th anniversairy, unlike the horrible nes classics in their recycled bog paper boxes & black and white pamphlets. Only niggle is the fact that the 3rd set has 2 famicom detective club games which i'll never play as they are impossible at my current reading level. But i had to buy them or my OCD would have killed me lol, just sad that nowdays the games go for way over the ?10 retail price they originally cost in japan. It makes getting a full set an expensive task nowdays. But they are wonderfully collectable.

      Do you have the incredibly expensive ones, super robot taisen? I can't see that picture clearly enough on this phone to tell.

        I've got the three display cases and all 30 games too, somewhere at home. I can't remember who I got the cases from, it was importer in the UK who used to post on here... long time ago, I forget the name. Dave? All the games came from Play Asia when they were released.

            Is that not Gundam SD Scramble? The one that was part of the Hot Mario Promotion in 2007?

              Yeah that's correct Kryss, they were given away via club nintendo as competition prizes there was also another gundam one but i can't remember the title of the other one off the top of my head. Never got those 2 as they are not worth forking out ?100+ just to have them in my collection as im not much of a gundam fan.

                SD Gundam World Gachapon Senshi Scramble Wars was the regular one, but Dai-2-Ji Super Robot Taisen was part of a campaign - there were only 2000 sent out to winners.

                Suffice to say, that is the ONE SRW game version I don't have.


                edit: ok, and Zeta Gundam - Hot Scramble, which is about $300 on ebay right now...

                  Some new SFC and PS2 buys over the last two weeks.

                  SFC games are:
                  Xardion - Complete crap level up style platformer but for some reason I play it.
                  Hana No Keiji - Interesting but hard 2D 1 on 1 fighter
                  Battletech - 3D mech action
                  Final Fight Guy - Super mint condition complete with CD. ONLY 780 yen!! That's a fraction of what it normally goes for.

                  PS2 games:
                  Complete Project Zero (also known as fatal Frame) series - excellent horror games.
                  Macross (Sega AM2 game) - great 3D shooter.
                  Wangan Midnight Run - basically Shutokou Battle and a great version however it's missing the killer soundtrack from the 2nd and 3rd games.

                    Those SFC games look lovely Yakumo. What is the Final Fight CD?

                      Still surprised to see how actively you have embraced the PlayStation 2!

                      One of these days will we see you going back to play original PlayStation titles? ;D

                        It's music from the game that's been arranged with real instruments. There's 3 tracks on the disc.

                        I see it as another games system not a Sony system Actually, most of the games I have for it are Sega titles or games that I loved in the arcade. I've been a big fan of Project Zero since playing the Wii version so I just had to get them. I'll also pick up a few of the Beat Mania and pop'n Music games in the future too.

                        I doubt I'll be buying any original PSX titles though. Anything from that time that I really wanted to play was on the Saturn apart from Ridge Racer.

                            Comment


                              About ?50 shipped - had to wrangle through a few best offers on eBay but eventually got it to what I would consider a reasonable level...

                                Ooh fatal frames, you're in for a treat. Love that series, just a shame all of them didn't make it to the wii.
