Unplayable pachinko games (Errrff!)? And finally, Are half of those games Baseball (Like in Every Famicom Lot I ever bought)? I F**king hate Baseball! Not too many tile games, but a good many rpg's, which don't do me any good since I can't read Japanese. There are some gems in there and several games that I have no clue what they are, but seem like fun, playable games, which is what I was hoping to find. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy B. Coyote Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 (edited) This will likely be my last gaming pickups post of the year, with the holiday season coming up and all my spare monies going towards gifts for loved ones from here on out. First, a couple Genesis games and two Switch games I got for 50% off from Target on Black Friday: My last recent gaming pickup is actually a gift for the spousal unit, but I couldn't resist showing it off here since it's just so cool looking. It's a brand new in box (well, at least it was until I opened it lol) SNES Super Advantage arcade stick! It's so pretty!

I think you'll like this: A list of games and their IDs... Not exactly intuitive, and I think the Search function only works by title, but it may help...For example, that game you have by Konami with RC-821 on the cover? See the ID? Look up Salamander (AKA Life Force on NES). The game ID is KON-RC821 (Konami RC821)...I've figured out some game titles using this... https://famicomworld.com/game-list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverfleet Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Gamestop had this gem for $25 all weekend, so I had to snag a copy. I always liked the Mana games, but the only one I own is the spinoff Secret of Evermore on the SNES. I've played Secret of Mana a little and dabbled in Sieken Densetsu 3 in the past, but I never played the first one. I'm starting there and planning on playing through all of them in order. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonGrafx-16 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Got my first horizontal shoot em up on Genesis, Arrow Flash. I tried default game at first. It had no autofire. I got to the end of Stage 2. Changed options: set it on easy, 7 lives, and autofire on and I got to stage 5. I still had to use a bunch of continues to even get there. I'm not very good at horizontal shmups, but currently it's my second favorite horizontal shmup, first being PC Denjin: Punkic Cyborgs (Air Zonk). Everything else here was 5 for $5 at my local game store. The PS1 games might be trash but IDK. The other games are: Forza 2 Xbox 360 (loose) BoomBots PS1 (loose) Link's Crossbow Training Wii (loose) Gubble PS1 (complete) Plus the soundtrack to Super Mario Galaxy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got the PS3 trilogy. Also Sin & Punishment: Star Successor is amazing! I think the Wii gun attachment would make it much easier to play though. I don't have one yet (I really need to grab one as my Wii did not come with one). Edited December 7, 2019 by DragonGrafx-16 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamchevy Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 I’m really enjoying getting back into fighting games. I also picked up a new PS3. It was $230 with taxes and shipping. There’s one more on eBay if someone wants one. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F283674407219 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonGrafx-16 Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 I bought this yesterday... I swear it was only released in Europe so I was wrong. It's pretty hard though. I got a game over on level 3... I mostly bought it because of the Tim Follin soundtrack. I have no idea how he made the SNES sound this good. It sounds like CD audio! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonGrafx-16 Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 One of my relatives gave me a $100 as a Christmas gift so I just bought these to games I've been waiting a while to get. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhoenixMoonPatrol Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 (edited) Fade to Silence for XBoxOneX Reminds me allot of the old DreamCast game D2 made by the late Kenji Eno(RIP) of Warp,a game I had lots of good times with. Anyways the game is on a massive sale right now. Went from $50.00 to $20.00 I'm all over that??

Skippy B. Coyote Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 (edited) I didn't think I was going to have any more game pickups to share for the rest of the year, but I ended up getting two awesome Sega Genesis games for Christmas from the misses (both of them being late releases from 1995, oddly enough) and I scored a copy of Starlink: Battle for Atlas for the Switch from Best Buy for $7.99 this afternoon!
