Post everytime you buy something game related and your unbelievable deals

Thanks I plan to do a proper cleaning of everything and test them all out. I just did a quick clean to remove the pound of dust on everything.

I also ordered these a couple weeks back (showed the picture of the DuoR from the auction listing already) and they got delivered yesterday. I have yet to test them due to not having the proper power cables yet.

I bought an Atari 5200. I wasn't planning on it, but it was at a thrift store with a controller (no power supply though :/)



EDIT: copying pictures fron Instagram is a pain in the butt.

 

Traded in kings quest 1, hunt for red october and some other generic atari floppy for mega drive pitfall at a retroshop. Super hapoy with it as pitfall was on my wishlist and it turns out it really is a great game. Loving it. Not an unbelievable deal but I AM unbelievably happy with it

 

Almost all from Goodwill or Flea Market so great deals on everything. (got a white 3d controller for saturn and a genesis controller as well) I'm just starting collecting so I know most of this is pretty basic for most here..but hey, i'm enjoying myself...lol.

Funny thing btw. My buddy put ShaqFu in his retron 5 and this is what came up before it started playing..lol. Looks like Hyperkin threw in a little easter egg for one of the worst games ever...lol.

nice pickups ashevent, I don't even have a power glove in my collection congrats on finding one. Did you get the sensors with it? Those dust covers for the genesis games are interesting don't think I have seen those before.

I agree with the retron5, shaq-fu was a horrible game

 

Unfortunately, I did'nt get the sensors but the price was so good I couldn't say no. I just found out a guy I know is a bit of a game hoarder and he has a power glove with sensors, so I may be getting it and then selling this one. The dust covers were from amazon and fit perfectly on genesis games but not on the EA made ones...but they do fit. Just some protection till I get boxes for them.

 

well as someone who had a power glove back in the early 90s I can say they do not work properly, some games just do not work right with it. Good idea on protecting the games from dust,etc.

 

Oh I know how bad they are, I also had one and it frustrated me quite a bit. I lost it somewhere in a divorce over 15 years ago and was just wanting one back..so bad it's good type of thing. I did beat Mike Tyson's punch out with it though back in the day...that..was...a...challenge to say the least...lol My arm just about fell off when I was done..lol. Not sure how you played but I remember having to put my elbow on my thigh and aim it at the TV to get it to play the best and keep my arm from getting too tired.

 

two very nice PCBs for my SNES jr

 

Is that top one a flash cart?

 

It's SD2SNES.

 

.

 

Yesterday my Japanese spec 21 pin RGB switch box from superg arrived. It's one very cool bit of kit.

 

That is AWESOME! Very nice.

 

That is really cool. Hell it could be useful in the US if the VGA output works well enough.

 

WHAAAAT?? How do you have one already??

I found a Neo Geo CD at Hard-Off today. It was in excellent condition and only ￥2160 so why not?


It's also a model I'd never seen before, I didn't know they made a front loader version! Didn't come with the AC adapter or controller, I'll have to source them.

 

The front Loader Neo CD was the first and it is sooooo sloooooooow at loading. Still looks cool.

Some very expensive SFC games today or the would be if they were legit. These are my latest reproduction carts I've made.

All the covers and labels are built from scratch. No quick and easy low resolution scan prints here.






Notice the real SFC security screws

 

Very nice!!! Are SFC repro board being made as well now? Same source as the MD ones? I couldn't find any on AliXpress

 

These SFC boards are much better than the MD ones. No cheap plastic holder and no globtop. They aren't from Aliexpress though. They're from a "friend" who happens to live in China. His prices are quite steep but I'm working on that.

 

i spent 30 on mine from new york, no power psu was cracked, solder bridged the cracks and it was like new mint white grey lol. but 15 with free shipping from japan??? WTF lol i never get those deal, i had someone jack me for an 8 dollar n64 on saturday at goodwill! lol
