Damn!
I didn't see the MD games there at all, would have got Ristar, have the rest.

Well they weren't boxed, just the loose carts thrown in a cardboard box with the console so you would have easily walked by it. Everything was filthy though, like they had been lying in a shed for years. All cleaned now of course.

Thanks for the tip anyway, I had written that market off a while ago but it appears to have a new lease of life going by today.

It has a 1050 drive? yeah I'd be tempted myself

Myrddin · 31-01-2011 10:43am

Looks to be in beautiful condition alphaeagle, they're big money when boxed etc, but as I was saying before, if you were bitten by the 3DO bug when it was retailing, it's a wound you never recover from, unfortunately

Small piece of technical information for those that are interested:

The 3DO is one of few CD-based units that feature neither regional lockout nor copy protection

Laus Dublin claws off...I will have enough trouble bidding against other people, but when I saw that 800xl...I said to the wife "You know I love you".....

EnterNow....It looks Fine.....I was well and trully bitten by that bug.....I will soon start replacing all my current consoles with fully boxed ones....Now if anyone has any console boxes they don't want!!!!!!!

o1s1n · 31-01-2011 11:40am

Wow, that is indeed a lovely piece of kit! Great price too. Nice one.

Myrddin · 31-01-2011 12:00pm

Joining the ranks of my Atari collection (I really should fix that 6 switch woody) is this, the 'Vader' model.

Picked up this little gem too. Boxed & complete with sealed instructions etc. The aerial was broke & needed fixing, which took all of three minutes to do :cool:

Both CIB, just need SOR 3 now...ya know, the dear one

Sonic 2 for the Mastersystem, Sonic 1 for the GameGear & Desert Strike for the MD

When cover art was never an indication of what you were getting. Nevertheless, when games were games.

The price for this haul? Well combining currencies etc, it evens out at about €40. It's a buyers market indeed

Jack burton · 31-01-2011 12:59pm

Just won radical rex for the MD

CiDeRmAn · 31-01-2011 8:29pm

Regarding the 3DO, burning off the hard to get games is a must, Star Control 2 for example, but I recommend buying the likes of Need For Speed and Road Rash, in the american oversized packaging as well, unless you have a thing for the double cd cases europeans got!

Just picked up off Landsleaving a boxed street fighter 2 turbo snes in great condition in fairness, with a 2nd controller mario world, starwing, jurrasic park2 and UN Squadron. Absolutley delighted! The other half paid for it for my Birthday, which isnt till March but she said keep an eye out for one!

If i had the money id buy your Saturn aswell, unfortunatly she wants to get bunk beds for the kids ;(

I guess they should have somewhere to sleep in fairness! I'm secretly hoping half that stuff doesn't sell so i can keep them anyway

What are Space Station Silicon Valley & Perfect Dark worth? (N64 PAL carts only)

ghostchant · 02-02-2011 2:15pm

Picked up cart-only Space Station Silicon Valley in the RAGE for less than a tenner, think they were selling a boxed Perfect Dark for around the 20-mark.

I got both carts for €14...has to be an alright price in that case?

Really good price you got. Perfect Dark is one of those games that goes for more than it's worth since it's popular. It's also not all that great although it's a massive improvement on goldeneye. Space Station Silicon Valley is worth about what you paid for it and is a fantastic game. There's absolutely nothing else like and is kind of sandboxy as well. Also it's made by DMA who would go on to be Rockstar North and make the GTA games so it's interesting in that regard.

DickyC · 02-02-2011 8:50pm

Picked up a couple of wii games and mass effect 2, only to have my xbox die after five minutes:( Anybody know if they are worth getting fixed?
The mario 25th allstars is available sealed in pc world in blanch for 21.99 if anybody is still looking for it, also got path of radiance second hand in hmv. Good weekend untill the box died.

Warren3 · 02-02-2011 9:21pm

Got Arc The Lad collection today!

DickyC · 03-02-2011 9:28pm

Latest addition to the gamecube collection,

ambro25 · 04-02-2011 5:10pm

Three weks ago: Black PAL GC (with power/AV), 1 black GC pad (Nintendo), GC Star Wars Rogue II, GC Star Wars Clone Wars, GC Mario Party 4 (all boxed/complete/mint) (£15)

Two weeks ago: 2 black GC pads (Nintendo) (average of £6 inc. P&P)

Last week: GC Mario Kart Double Dash, GC Super Smash Bros Melee, GC Soul Calibur II (all boxed/complete/mint) (2-for-3 deal at local Gamestation, worked out at £5 apiece)

This week: 1 black GC pad (Nintendo) (straight swap for an old pair of Sony headphones), GC Scorpion King (was part of pad-4-cans swap, going on eBay Sunday :pac:)

Never realised Martio Party 4 and Beyond Good & Evil had gotten so rare/sought-after, I could have picked BG&E for £4 at Gamestation last week :pac:...will nip back this weekend and see if it's still there

Myrddin · 04-02-2011 7:51pm

Ah balls, just noticed there I already have Perfect Dark. It came with an NTSC N64 I got from Augmerson, any distinct advantage between the PAL / NTSC versions? I do plan on modding the N64 for RGB at some stage, so perhaps the NTSC one is the one to keep?

Jack burton · 04-02-2011 8:21pm

I got 2 things in the post today

1. A mint copy of General Chaos for the MD

2. My College degree in quantity surveying

Should I be worried that i still havnt opened up my degree and general chaos has already gotten about half a hour of play time

Well done! Any chance you could appraise my games collection?

Jack burton · 04-02-2011 11:08pm

that stuff is worth nothing i'll give ya a tener for it all

o1s1n · 05-02-2011 12:07am

You sure that's a degree you got, yeah?

CiDeRmAn · 05-02-2011 1:15am

It's definitely his degree, bought and paid for.

Of course he paid a slightly soiled issue of Sega Power magazine and a copy of Pit Fighter for the Megadrive, but that's the way ole Jack rolls!

SirLemonhead · 05-02-2011 3:56pm

Anyone been into RAGE this weekend to see what new stuff they have?

Ronan|Raven · 05-02-2011 5:35pm

according to their facebook page they got in a few SNES consoles and games.

o1s1n · 06-02-2011 12:21am

Just picked up Robocop Versus The Terminator for the Snes. It's rubbish in comparsion to the epic Megadrive version, but I wanted it to do some comparisons on real hardware.

Next on the list, Alien Versus Predator for the Snes!

Warren3 · 06-02-2011 7:30pm

Just won Ico for the ps2 for a tenner!

Not bad!
