QUOTE(gundamalpha @ Sep 20 2008, 10:15 AM) I just bought my 3rd GG early this year Where u get ur 3rd GG? Still available? pls tell me where! Are you giving away the games for free?   QUOTE(PhatPhunk @ Sep 20 2008, 11:43 AM) Wholly crap! The Sega GameGear!! I used to have one too. That was my one and only portable console i have. It died with a white screen of death.. Arghh.. I'd like to get one too.. Together with the TV Tuner. I think it's hard to find a unit here.. Hey guys, I just recalled, maybe you can find something in Cash Converters? Few years back when I wasn't into this console collecting fever, I saw a used GG and GB there.. I'm not sure if they still have it there tho.. I still got the TV tuner in mint condition Added on September 20, 2008, 11:50 am I see. From what I know PC Engine had lotsa good shooters. Like R-Type or SideArms. Adventure stuffs like PC Engine Genjin (Bonk Adventures), Oh yeah, and the rare Castlevania which was released in Super CD rom format.. Not to mention also the excellent port of Street Fighter II... Gosh.. Makes me wanna go out and buy the DUO..  The Gameboy Light was only released in Japan, and I think some of our grey importers here managed to bring in a few units back then. Its now considered a rare item.. especially one that still comes with the original box and paperwork.. I just bought one on eBay (For a good price) and I'm pretty excited to get my hands on it!!! *Waits patiently for it's arrival.. Have you guys heard about the White GameGear? Which comes in a suitcase? Its a complete kit together with matching TV Tuner and Batt Charger. It's SUPER rare. And I saw it in Penang many many years ago... |

Can't post pics of my handhelds for now.. most of them not with me right now.
GG is pretty common in eBay, not .com.my of course. I have struck a deal with a Japanese broker just today, able to get all the rarest gaming stuff directly from there. Will see how things work out, if it's good I can help fellow members here find stuff that never left the island. |

I can, but the problem is I can't do COD (I'm from KK) most likely. So you'd be spending twice on shipping (from Japan to me, then to you). If you want something less common like limited edition this or rarest that it's more worth it. Can PM me your budget and see if I can meet your requirement or not but no guarantee, hope you can understand.

Gamegear.. It's a every child's dream back in those days. When Gameboys only had monochrome dot matrix screen, GG had full color lcd!
It's a must have for any collector. Anyways, Just to show you guys my pathetic collection thus far  . I'm only showing what I deem as retro handheld. PSP, GBA and DS will have to wait for another 10 years or so Atari Lynx 
Gameboy Light 
Next on the wishlist - either a GG or PC engine GT..  |

Dead pixels, battery consumption (1 hour gameplay), tiny screen, sound problems (most common problem, no sound at all), weight and of course the price. The cheapest I can find (excluding shipping) is around RM400, doubt you can do much better than I do. Better think twice.

The cheapest I can find (excluding shipping) is around RM400, doubt you can do much better than I do. Better think twice. I see. Yeah, I'm aware of these side effects about the GT. I contacted the guy and he assures that it's all a-ok. I've also messaged one of his customers asking how accurate his sales description is. The GT was once the rollsroyce of handheld, priced at a staggering US 259. I've always dream to own one despite it's pathetically small screen Added on September 29, 2008, 11:19 amCome to think of it, how come you guys only post consoles and no game?

Most of my retro collections I source from friends & relatives or flea markets.

The Genesis 2 and SNES console look very awfully familiar  updated with some pics, Boxed consoles. Handhelds and some loose consoles.  Boxed consoles, controllers and some vintage handhelds. I like arcade sticks but i suck at using them...  |
