Hey....

I actually like fighters, shooters and puzzle games. Also games like Final Fight/Bare Knuckle-types.

All games are easy to get into but hard to master. RPGs take too long to finish, but if I ever play one properly, I may get hooked.

It's only coincidental that some of the games are expensive. Some I bought cheap because I know where to look for a bargain (RM12 Cash Converters, thank you very much). Ebay is still a good place to find them too.

Anyway, I'd just like to think that once I get tired of gaming, I can at least recoup some of the money back.

If the seller is from Japan, most probably it is ori and not fake.

Fakes are more common in Asia.

Ebay has quite a few people selling ori Super Famicom carts at decent prices (as long as it's not Final Fight Tough).

Here's my favourite ebay seller's store, Yamatoku. He regularly does USD0.01 auctions, so in effect you only pay for the shipping cost if you win at USD0.01.

Ok guys..

since i've got nothing left to do in the office tonight, I thought I could probably share my 'last gen' gaming setup which is managed to snap last week.

Still playing PS2, Gamecube and Dreamcast right now. I only used my xbox mainly as my DVD/media player right now. Bought the Soundworks Cambridge speaker all the way from KK since it is damn cheap there. Oh, and ignore the Wii. tongue.gif I have to place it there since there is no more video ports available on my 'other' setup.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Still my favourite console.  thumbup.gif With NA+80GB HDD. Load games much much faster. This Fat PS2 NTSC/UC console have served me very well.  Miss those time playing msg3 with some of the forumers online. Still playing granturismo and msg series on the console now and then.

Some of my SNES/Famicom cartridges. To be honest, I dont even know some of the real title of this games since most of them are all written in Japanese! All I know is the Gundam/Slamdunk/rockman titles. If anybody can read japanese/got any idea of the game title your help to indentify the games will be much appreciated. tongue.gif And if u look close some of the games still got their original pricetag in Yen. Oh, and if there's anybody interested with the games just let me know. Game complete with original manual/booklet unless the one without box.
So, that's it for now. Left some of console+games in my hometown since I'm currently renting a house right now(wife kept telling that there's no more space to store all my stuff inside the house)

Wow seems that a lot of people has an amazing Saturn collection here. I have few Saturns myself and one of the unique accessory that I have is the Saturn Game Basic. This device allows you to connect your saturn to PC via serial port and uses your PC keyboard to create homebrew programs/ games. So you can create your own programs or download them from others. I believe someone is even creating a clone Mario game, which is quite cool  thumbup.gif

Yep the 2D is the main advantage of Saturn at that time, especially to the PS1. Also some of the arcade ports and games are able to utilize the extra 4mb ram with the expansion memory cart. Even Shenmue was initially going to be released on Saturn, but never made it since Dreamcast already out. This is where Sega always made mistake just like when they came out with 32X expansion for Megadrive, they were too fast to release Saturn and made it obsolete.
*
they did not support the addons for very long and it made many people pissed .. though the saturn failed kinda badly in usa and europe ( i think ) but in japan it was quite strong ( not play station wise la . ) i remember reading in one mag saying dunno which capcom figthing game , the saturn version could allow 4 characters on screen @ once vs the ps version which had to swap characters .some xmen/street fighter game i think

Tales of Destiny 1 PSX used for RM300 is a very good price already, please research first lah bro, if a BRAND new factory sealed one, for RM300.00 I will pay cash for 10 copies.It's worth its weight in gold most US RPG's if you have sealed copies, sell near X-mas and double/triple your moneys worth.

thats a good price, assuming you can locate one that is .

gonna order kingdom hearts next . lol
