Post every time you buy/trade something Part VII

It's been a very long time since I posted anything in this thread. The last few weeks have brought me DoDonPachi Satakore version which cost more than the full price release strangely. Also Final Romance 2 and Mahjong Gakuensai to help complete that full JPN Saturn set.

Newest addition to my MVS collection.... drum roll.... Legend Of Success Joe!

Ok, so this is how a bad neo geo game plays like :lol:

...

I paid way too much considering its quality

...

ah well, people are buying even worse games for way more money haha.

 

my new xedk

here is it next to my xdk

 

Thunder Force VI for PS2.
Layer Section for Sega Saturn.
36" Toshiba CRT.

My setup is gonna be so kickass soon. Next month I'll buy Thunder Force V and DoDonPachi for Saturn.

 

Was in L.A. this weekend for the UFC fight and stopped by the game dude over there picked up Dreamcast: Blue Stinger (JPN) $5, Fire Pro Wrestling D(JPN) $10, Saturn Ninku (JPN) $15.

 

lol, how does that work? :lol: Satakore is like budget titles right? Must have a lower print count or something. Still funny though.

 

Yes, it probably is due to the lower print run. Thunder Force V original release can be had for about 3000 yen while the special edition for about 5000 yen while the satakore re-release cost more than both of them. Collectors want but others won't sell which probably drives up the price as well as the lower print run.

Not all satakore releases cost more than the original release mind you. Princes Crown is cheaper I found in satakore form.

KoF XII for Xbox 360.

 

Not game related but cool none the less. A set of Subaru STi mud flaps for my Impreza. THese things cost a small fortune but I got a lucky deal on them because there are a few hair line scratches on them. The scratches are so thin you'd have to get right up close to see them. Far closer than anyone ever will.

Scratches on mud flaps decrease value? WTF? I thought one day after putting them on they're scratched to death anyway

 

The crazy Japanese seem to collect everything, otherwise it would make no sense due to use.

 

Very nice Yakumo. Make sure to post some pics after you put them on your car.

 

I hope to fit them this Saturday if the weather stays nice.

As for money off due to a few very light marks, yep that's quite normal in Japan. If it's not mint then it's not new to them.

YAY

 

I'm a big fan of the ALPS Pad for PS1, despite its flaws. They're pretty scarce, but I bought a new one that popped up:



I love the huge size, curvy shape, metallic auto-body-like color, and the large grippy undersides. Still searching for the elusive limited edition Red version.

 

I'm not allowed on eBay the rest of this month now..

beatmania IIDX 16 Empress + Premium Best
Espgaluda
REZ
PSYVARIAR COMPLETE EDITION
Metal Slug 3
DoDonPachi Daioujou

I want Mushihimesama. D:

 

That ain't hard. It's november on sunday!!

Wonderful purchases. I hope you are going to spend the time on each one of the games that they deserve, every single one (well, maybe Psyvariar not as much as the others ) is a real gem.

Datt's one hellova massive DJ set, I envy you man!

 

I mean until next time I get paid! Haha.

 

Man I wish I still had the time to play Music games, def. my favorite type of game. But I can't not play them obsessively, so I tend to avoid them nowadays . Wanna try Dj Hero sometime soon though.

 

Hey VMS that ALPS pad looks shiny! Though isn't the d-pad a bit of a drawback? At least it looks not very reliable, but can't say anything really as I've never tried it.
