    Haven't sniped anyone in ages on Ebay but seeing these 2 are games i was after & they are pretty minty looking i thought i'd go for it. Bid in the last 10 seconds & got both for a fraction of the cost.

    Interesting that you found sealed Mega Drive games rather than Genesis ones. I wonder what happened there?

    Had a birthday, so received (only listing techy things):

    Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
    XNA Game Studio 4.0 Developer's Library (need to get back up to speed on dev work after a year off)

    ...and a pair of Sennheiser HD205s to replace the busted pair I use for film sound design. One day I'll get my Etymotics, but for the time being I'm loving these. :)

    I've seen quote a few places sell it.
    Usually for £120-150including postage seen a few £90-100 but the shops they're from don't seem especially trustworthy.
    Your best bet is ebay tho before the price jumps up too high as there weren't very many memorial boxes. Will probably set you back over £100 tho
    In my opinion its overpriced for what it is but i'll be pleased to have it in a few years lol

    BTW - its listed down in many places as only working on NTSC-J however works fine on my PAL 360

    Another package from Japan arrived.

    [​IMG]
    Some of them sealed (like Steep Slope Sliders, Super Tempo). The entire bottom half that I separated is of 18-rated stuff, mostly hentai adventure and Mahjongg :drool:

    [​IMG]
    A minty Twin Famicom. It sure took some time until I managed to track one down in this excellent state for a very reasonable price. It's the first edition from 1985 and the black model.
    Along with it came a copy of "Kaette-kita Mario Brothers", a sequel to the original Mario Brothers that was only distributed in Japan on Disk Writer stations, therefore no packaging/cover. It's missing the A4 intrusction sheet though.

    [​IMG]
    Some books & magazines. Cave Shooting History, GamePlan 1.5 & GamePlan Joysticks (console and joystick encyclopedia by a famous German magazine editor). Video Games issue 2 from 1991 and the first three issues of Man!ac. The GamePlan-author Winnie Forster was part of both magazines' teams, he founded Man!ac in 1993 after working for almost three years as part of the "Video Games"-crew. That's how it's all connected... :)

    And finally...
    [​IMG]
    a 14" RGB monitor. In box with styrofoam & Scart-Adaptor. I've never seen one of those CIB, probably never gonna let this one go... :drool:

    Two days ago I picked up this PS3 system, just 160GB I think but that'll do nicely.

    [​IMG]

    And just bought Blazblue on PS3, limited edition with audio cd, artwork and cute little nendroid. Picked it up for 5000 yen at lunchtime. Any good? My friend was raving about the game so I thought I would pick it up to play on my new PS3.

    No I did. It was 15.50 for all three. There is very little choice in las Vegas for game trades...

    Hi guys,

    Well today I can officially say I'm a proud owner of the Uncharted 2 Press Edition Kit.

    Paid over the odds but well worth it, I will cherish it with all my tender loving care.

    This was literally Brand New until I opened the ribbon so well pleased indeed.

    Can anyone shed some light on this...were these only released for the UK press or did they also release these for the US?

    Oh yeah I was so close in getting my hands on the Uncharted Drake's Fortune Press Kit set (someone beat me to it) that would've made my day, so gutted.

    Happy go lucky:
