When the PSX and Saturn came out, I had one of them but picked up another Megadrive cheap. The shops in my area were selling games dirt cheap, as though the last gen was worthless. I was paying around two or three pounds for most Japanese Megadrive titles I hunted down. I should've kept them all but after a few months i just gave them all to someone I knew. Another lad picked up a Neogeo for £30 but I think it was Pal. Crazy times.

I still kick myself for not buying a Vectrex when they were around £100 for a nice condition example with a collection of games.Gutted.Last edited by Leon Retro; 28-08-2020, 01:48.

Courtesy of Hohum, a Japanese PSOne just arrived. I went looking for a UK power supply for it on ebay and Amazon and it was cheaper to buy a bundle of a UK PSOne, a controller, a PSU and 6 games off ebay than it was to just buy a PSU. That should be here next week and then I'm good to go for all my PS1 games.

Payday today so i can finally chip away at my wanted list of games again. Today one of the shooters i really wanted, sadly no spinecard but the selection on ebay is slim for nice condition first print copys. Don't want a best selection or a psone books edition.
Now to try and track down a copy of R-type deltaLast edited by importaku; 28-08-2020, 17:45.

R-type delta now off the list, was tricky as the auction ended while i was in the lab at work this morning so i had to sneak my phone out to snipe at last second as the cheapskates were slowly chipping at the value a quid here & there. Slammed £65 on at last 30 seconds and watched them all scrabble to try and outbid lol. Ended at £44 before anyone could go higher, seller said disk was mint and it's in the uk so i wont get hit with import duty, weirdly i like the art on this one more than the first print edition a rarity for me.
Not sure which shooters to try pick up next, was tempted by the gradius deluxe pack and the salamander one but to be honest i have those games on my pc engine mini so unless there's some amazing difference on the PS1 versions it seems a bit of a waste to get them again. Gaia seed is a definite no as i tried that the other day and for the cost of it you'd think it was amazing but after trying it out on my ps classic it looks and feels pretty average like a game halfway between a snes and ps1 game.
Maybe einhander next? not tried that one. anyone got any more PS1 shooter recommendations? so far i have.....
Sexy parodius
Jikkyou oshaberi parodius
Gokujou parodius deluxe pack

Importaku, I completed Delta once when it came out, I couldn't afford these games now. Einhander used clever camera angles at times and was very highly rated back then , I'd suggest try before you buy. The feel of it is different to similar games because you equip the ships' arms with weapons.
I think you have Zanac, isn't there a special version of Raiden on psx, is it Raiden Dx?

Oops yeah i forgot to add Zanac to that list. Had a look on ebay at Donpachi Phillv85 yikes a 3 figure price tag game gonna need to download that to test out i think from youtube it looks ace. Will see if i can find einhander as well, will also have a look into Raiden. I have a feeling there's loads i have no idea about shooters is not a genre i know inside & out.

Gaia Seed,
Wolf Fang,
Sonic Wings special,
You must know Ray Storm and Crisis.
I love ps1 games the more obscure the better, but arcade type games were often better on the Saturn if not exclusives.
