1) PC Engine Duo-R w/ region mod and original box. Long time want of mine but never thought I'd own a Duo since it never occured to me to get a Japanese one, I always looked at US Duo's with their crazy prices and let my wallet make the decision not to buy one. haha So when I found out that a Duo-R was a viable option since they have no region lock on CD games I started looking into them and found the site of a guy who sells them as well as offers modding services. So I decided to finally go for it, after like a month or 2 of back and forth emails with him I settled on what I wanted (Boxed Duo-R w/ matching controller and region mod) and what games I wanted. Since I was buying a ton he hooked me up with a ton of reasonably priced games and even a free Ten No Koe bank card. I couldn't be happier with the console, its an absolute blast to to play and looks freaking boss sitting on my shelf when I'm not using it. 2) Atari Jaguar. This was my first Atari console not counting my Lynx II. Was always curious about the console but seeing as the only ones I ever saw for sale where either beat to hell and filthy or outrageously expensive, I never looked seriously into getting one. But once I got my Lynx my interest in them and Atari in general came back and when I found and joined this forum and once I discovered I could buy a NOS one for a reasonable price from a reputable source I went for it. Yeah the console nor its games are perfect or close to it but it is what it is and its pretty damn cool. 3) SNK Neo Geo Pocket Color. Technically I got this in 2012 but seeing as it was first offered to me in trade during the final days of 2011 I consider it a 2011 addition. I remember when these where still in stores always thought they were cool but never spent my allowance on one as I knew even then it didn't have a chance in the long run and I didn't want to get stuck with something I couldn't get games for. I even talked my little brother out of buying one I was so confident it would fail. Sadly I was right and it vanished, even then I still kind of wanted one. So ever since then I'd periodically look into one and then forget about it when I invariably couldn't find one for a reasonable price, in acceptable condition or I was broke. lol So when atari2600land offered me his I bit. It cost me Astal for my Saturn and Doom for my Jag but it was worth it. I was shocked at how playable King of Fighters and Samuari Showdown where on it. I'd always heard it was insanely perfect for fighters but never really believed it could be that much better then fighters on any other handheld, man was I wrong. lol I'm over all very impressed with the NGPC it far exceeded my expectations. If I could have a 4th pick my PSP would get it.

Advent Rising for th Xbox is definitely one of the worst I've ever bought, bought it on launch before its buggy nature was known. Took a VERY long time to beat it, not because it was hard but because the number of game breaking glitches I encountered were staggering.

Well not always lol. Great game but man does the boxart look dumb, its pretty much all the fault of the dude in the center, if he actually looked the dude you play it wouldn't be so annoing to look at.

If so could you scan it for me? Thanks in advance!

I've emailed this guy a few times trying to get him to seperate it(I want a couple games and that banner) but he will only sell it all together. :/

My most recent horror story. For last 3 nights I made it a habit of playing Columns on my PSP(from the Sega Genesis collection) for an hour or 2 before bed, when I finished up for the night I paused and put the PSP into sleep mode and then picked up where I left off the following night, I had managed to get in a really good rhythm and could probably have continued on till the score maxed out, sadly a late night phone call last night startled me and broke my concentration and I didn't think to hit pause before it was to late(was quite close to the top of the screen working on building a big combo), I wasn't able to recover but oh well, so I entered my intials and went to bed, then last night I went to start over and beat that score(it was somewhere between 2-2.5 million or so), I screwed up fairly early on and got a game over... only to see I'd set the high score. Turns out the game wasn't saving my scores so all that work for nothing. I've looked around in the settings and for the life of me can't figure out how to make it save my scores.

Price dropped on EotB.

bump. :]

Could you post a photo by any chance? I've always been curious what it looked like under the label.

My favorite era is 16 bit and the generation following it with the Playstation and N64... lol what is this generation referred as??? I have the most fond memories from these generations and have the most favorite games from them as well.

Haha experienced fighting a giant for the first time today. Stumbled upon him and his mammon near witchmist. Initially tried killing him out in the open but being at a low level I did very little damage before he creamed me and smashed me a mile into the sky. So I then decided to try pressing his buttons once I noticed that he didn't attack on site. I did this by repeatedly ran into his camp and stole all his shit bit by bit. Once I stole his mammoth cheese though he started chasing me, after much running away I found a rock he could get very close to me but couldn't hit me from and I just filled his head with arrows. lol Then did this same to his mammoth though that took much longer. Speaking of witchmist are all the witches automatically hostile or did the witch there only get pissy because I killed the witch Anise near Riverwood?

Just got this today and I am loving it! Playing a stealthy very lightly armored argonian archer/thief, very pleased with the way the bow works in this game, in past elderscrolls titles they never where much fun to me, at lower levels they had seemingly no stopping power and piss poor accuracy, but in this one I just love popping people in the head from long range with my gals bow and getting stealthy one shot kills. And with the ability to melee with your bow in close quarters the need for a back up weapon if the enemy gets close no longer seems as necessary(though still carrying an shield and short sword just incase), which just means more stuff for me to steal. I just finished up the quest to retrieve the golden claw and man was it fun, really loved the dungeon design, can't wait to see the later ones.
