+Spriggy Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Woo Hoo! She arrived. PAL version Have never seen one in the wild in my part of the woods and have been searching for some time. Plus, Aussies seem to advertise the word "Rare" on any popular titled 2600 carts and attach drug induced wacky prices!! Got this one from my 2600 contact in the UK for a decent price. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a game from your youth you missed out on was based on getting crabs? Funny how the games changed to avoiding the exact same thing as an adult.

Actually I never heard of that game, nor Lifeboat & Rain Shower for that matter as a kid simply because I never saw them, but I know if I did, I'd want them crabs (the game kind of blows btw).

Skippy B. Coyote Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 (edited) Nostalgia… unchanged… boo hoo… Enough… cemetery… take me… my grave... For anyone who might have been concerned, no, I'm not suicidal; that was a quote from the ghost in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. In actuality I haven't been this happy about getting a game system since I was 8 years old! I never thought I'd see my old Game Boy again, but here it is! And now it will remain mine forever, and ever, and ever. Edited October 19, 2018 by Jin 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonGrafx-16 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Oh Yeah Game Genie! Must make the Game Boy weigh a ton! Also needs the screen magnifier and the light!

It does make it a little hefty, but I've always thought it was a neat device that gave games some extra replay value. The screen on the Game Boy has been backlit with an olive green backlight kit though so no need for any light attachments. At this point the only Game Boy hardware still on my "to get" list is a Game Boy Camera and Game Boy Printer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually had one of those as a kid and loved it back then, but these days a good backlight kit is a much more convenient option... a whole lot less rad looking though.

DragonGrafx-16 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Super Star Soldier from my local video game store. I was surprised to find any PC-Engine games at all there. Saved me from having to buy it on Ebay.They had a few more PC-E games I might grab in the future. Also, a still sealed copy of Riven in a big box (not shrink-wrapped but the tape hasn't been broken) bought from a Salvation Army store. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonGrafx-16 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Super Bomberman for $6 (including shipping)... can't beat that especially when the SNES versions are all around $30... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4300 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Bought a dirty pile of Atari crap off off eBay, mainly for the tac-2. This ended up being probably the most poorly packaged items I've ever received. I see what the hype is about with the tac-2. That super stick is interesting as well.
