Fuse, if you can break your shock box only rule, Delta Warp is a nice tile flipping puzzle game. I really love the box art for it too. I never see people talking about it.
Nice collection

I passed up multiple copies of Ghost Photo Studio in Japan for around the £40 mark. And Crush Roller for £20 or £30. Should've scooped 'em, really. Ah well.
The two games I do really wish that I had are Neo Poke Kun and Card Fighters Clash. And honestly I kind of want a copy of Neo Baccarat just that epic box art.

This game list being a total parallel to the games I've recently sought out and a fraction of the cost is a pretty hilarious condemnation of retro buyer brain rot. I've got a last load of titles to arrive and then I think I'm done for now...
In other questions; any of our resident modders ever installed one of the LCD backlit screens for one of these?

Dug out my 2nd hand NGPC the other day to check what I have.
Densha de GO!2, Sonic the Hedgehog, Samurai Spirits (cart only), and Capcom Supporters version of Card Fighters Clash...the latter is in decent nick and was only 500 yen secondhand. I had no idea it was actually worth anything. So it'll be in the Sales Forum for $1million later on today.

I could only see someone like LRG doing something like that. It would be a seriously cool touch if it happened!
[MENTION=3822]fuse[/MENTION] the good news is, these things only seem to go up in price. So you can always move them on again if you’ve got a touch of buyer’s remorse. Really though, the fun is in owning them, right? Because you could’ve always downloaded the ROMs anyhow

Like, historically I would often see people say a game was "rare" or "valuable", but for me, the threshold was always if the game held a value which was higher than its original purchase price + inflation. Like that was a useful yardstick. Because you'd often see people say some GBA game was rare & valuable, then you'd look it up on eBay and see you could get a copy for £18 in 2015. For me, that doesn't qualify.
Hell, I still have my Saturn UK Guardian Heroes, despite not even owning a Saturn, because I wasn't convinced it was worth selling. Now I see they're north of £100 I actually might go for it.
However, we're reaching a point now where so many games are now above that waterline; like anything which isn't a sports game or a mainstream wrestling game is pretty much guaranteed to do that at some point. It's strange.
