    I saw this idea on another forum and thought to give it a go here. Title says it all. - Any time you buy some new arcade or retro goodies post about it here so we can all admire/drool in jealousy.... (And plan to raid your house :pac:)

    Pictures optional...but better!

    Nice one. Looks to be in good nick. Lots of them seem to have the Neo Geo logo partially worn off due to use. Tis annoying!

    I took some photos of stuff that has recently come in the post. Apologies to anyone on dialup/slow connection. Must hate me with the amount of photos I've been taking :o

    AV cable for N64
    Classics Collection for the Sega MD - Gunstar Heroes, Altered Beast, Flicky & Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle

    Some stuff does seem to be getting through despite the strike in the UK!

    Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (Xbox). It amazingly has VGA support, and it has a replay function that the PS2 version didn't have. It was a bit steep at £10, though.

    Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon (Xbox) for £2. Always heard good things about the series. No backwards compatibility, though, which is a shame.

    Got Halo 2 and Gran Turismo (which I'm very happy about due to a non working copy I have) today.

    Was well happy with that alright :)

    7 euro of that is postage. The auction ended at 5.00. Was another example of the great bargains on ebay.ie!

    Got Moonwalker for the Megadrive. For a decent enough price actually given the silly money it has been selling for since his death.

    Supposedly it's another game with a couple of different revisions. First one has the Terminator in it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,475 ✭✭✭corblimey


    Not a game, but retro-related, just took delivery of the RetroGamer eMag DVDs 1 and 2, 55 full issues of RG. I'm using them to decide if I should get into another retro console (PC-Engine anyone?) or eat.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,569 ✭✭✭✭Tallon


    Got a megadrive II today, along with 10 GB game cases, alleyway (excellent game) and Deadheat scrabble (terrible terrible game)

    All for €6

    Also picked up another one of those space invaders plug-n-play things for a friend €2 :)

    Won a nice little Gameboy lot on fleabay -

    Gameboy
    Gameboy printer (With some paper!)
    And a few carts.

    untitled-3.jpg

    After getting the printer I thought I'd need the camera to go along with it! Managed to get one for next to nothing.

    (Pics are screens from ebay)

    Going to have to bring it along to this beers and take 8-bit pics of everyone :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,569 ✭✭✭✭Tallon


    I hate you :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 34,275 ✭✭✭✭o1s1n

    The gameboy lot was only 6 euro :D. Camera was 4.50.

    Seems you can get them crazy cheap on ebay.

    Next step is to try and mod it with a backlight!

    Wow-ee! Those are some great purchases o1s1n! I'm armed with babysitting money ATM so I'm trying so hard not to spend it on gaming but with such great prices on ebay, it's not easy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,139 ✭✭✭Ronan|Raven


    Neo-geo 1 slot aquired from this forum and a 111 in 1 multicart purchased from arcademachines.ie on ebay,( yes a multicart look upon me with disdain but my current financial woe it is the best for me until I get cash for the individual carts!) Just wish my supergun would bloody arrive!

    I'd join you, but a) I long ago disconnected my house from the feens in Eircom and 2) I'm rubbish at FPS, but let us know how you get on, on the interwebs.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,475 ✭✭✭corblimey


    New games, but retro console. Still counts, right? DUX and Wind & Water Puzzle Battles for the DC.

    Oh ffs.

    Won a gamegear tv tuner auction. Was all excited. Until I went to pay.

    The guy doesn't accept paypal. To add to that, he's based in Austria.

    Who doesn't accept Paypal in this day and age?!?!

    :mad:

    Just want to watch tv on my gamegear :(


    Here's a pic anyway!

    Got some MGS disc 1, TOCA touring cars, Die hard trilogy and Destruction Derby 2 on PS1. Also got Shadow of Memories on the PS2. And GRID on the 360 but that doesn't count :P

    I've played it for about 20mins and am not a huge shmup fan, so not the best person to ask. It looks and plays alright to me, though.

    Gameboy Micro - Limited Famicom edition

    The edges are a bit worn due to use (Explains why it was a fraction of the cost they usually go for)

    Gonna try and fix her up once she arrives.
