Lynxpro Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Not really so much anymore. I do remember that there was one shop that I actually used, they repaired my LaserDisc player (hahah), and it was pretty awesome $50 bucks and done. I have not seen another shop since, but I'm sure they exist, just off the beaten path. I'm thinking of buying that Bypass Cartridge too. As for B&C... everything I've heard about them is that the guy who runs B&C is a very honest guy. He does what he does for fun, and I know he lays out a lot of cost to make those games. He also sells the old cartridge inserts (2mb carts, without the shells) on eBay too for pennies on the dollar. Bypass Cartridge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Bypass Cartridge? Allows one to boot unencrypted Jag CD games. The Protector carts can also be used for this purpose...and you get a game too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CyranoJ Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 There is no need to purchase a bypass cart. Jagtopia:Freeboot can boot unencrypted CDs. There are also several carts with the ability to do this, including Protector, Downfall+, and the up-coming Rebooteroids. Allows one to boot unencrypted Jag CD games. The Protector carts can also be used for this purpose...and you get a game too 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Dangerous Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Just bought Raiden: And NBA Jam TE: My collection of regular production run carts is almost complete!! The only other titles I'm seeking are Power Drive Rally and Atari Karts. Then on to more Songbird Games!! (Skyhammer, Soccer Kid, Total Carnage, Towers II, etc.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Saturn Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Nice! Raiden rocks. Been a while since I played but from what I can remember, it's one of the best titles/ports imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoGeoNinja Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Nice! Raiden rocks. Been a while since I played but from what I can remember, it's one of the best titles/ports imo. Would love to agree, but after spending more time with the PS1, ARC and other 16-bit ports, I actually find the Jag version a bit of an oddity. It's not that great imo, but in the grand scheme of where it stands in the library, yeah... it's alright. ALSO... regarding Power Drive Rally... That's one of T H E best titles on the system imo. I'm sure you'll love it Travis... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Dangerous Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Soccer Kid, Skyhammer, Worms and Hyper Force. Carl you aren't going to have anything left to sell me soon... And for fun Bubsy and Supercross 3fps off epay. Really looking forward to Soccer Kid Strangely enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Saw that, thanks for the order! Soccer Kid is a really fun game (in my opinion): colorful, fast, good animation, decent music, and big levels to explore. Very solid platformer for the Jaguar.

Songbird Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Yes, the Towers II box says "limited edition" on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82-T/A Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 Yes, the Towers II box says "limited edition" on it. Aren't all the Towers II games limited edition? I feel like this was asked before... but what is the difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 I think it's strictly a packaging difference; don't think there is any difference in the game itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Dangerous Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) Just bought Power Drive Rally with the manual for $15.50 Who says there aren't still deals to be had? Two games from the regular production run to go: Primal Rage and Dragon's Lair.. Edited September 15, 2014 by travistouchdown 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masematte Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Good deal, and you have the EU Version with the Cosworth in the cover. This is one oft the best Jaguar games, for me 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one oft the best Jaguar games, for me +1 Masematte! PDR is, imo, without doubt, one of the top 10 titles for the Jaguar. It's not quite Neo Drift-Out or Gaelco WRC, but it's still awesome in it's own right. I love the little touches like the Gear Change animation and having to turn on your own headlights! Great game. A Jag title I would never be without vs a LOT of others! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two games from the regular production run to go: Primal Rage and Dragon's Lair.. This is seriously like one of my favorite games for the Jaguar... it takes some getting back into practice each time I play it, but it really is a great game. The PC version had a couple extra features that the Jaguar one doesn't do... like the test drive and obstacle course, but it's still a great game.

Rick Dangerous Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 And while we're here just snagged Towers II Special Edition for the Jag. Looking forward to doing a little 3D dungeon crawling... (and Raiden and Zaku for the Lynx, but that's off topic!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
