The Tower arrived this morning, sealed and lovely.
Here's a thought ...
If I let you shower open yours and play them won't that make my sealed copy more valuable???

**CiDeRmAn** · 31-01-2012, 11:41

Oh, also heading off to buy a 20 euro Circle Pad Pro because, when it comes to it, I'll buy anything with the word "Nintendo" on it

I'm gonna leave mine sealed, it could push the value to to eleven, perhaps even twelve euro.

**CiDeRmAn** · 31-01-2012, 14:12

Another reason not to open it is that, well, despite my Saturn being modded it doesn't, in fact, make it region free, just able to play CD-Rs, should the occasion arise, ever.....

So, the only way to play it is to make a iso from it, use SRP on it and change it's region, burn it to a CD-R and play it.
At least I can do so with a clear conscience!

Does the action replay cart not allow imports to be played? I have the cart, just no PAL or NTSC-U games to test it out. I only bought it for the built in RAM pack.

The 4 in 1 allows it.

That's the diddlybop I have. The 4in1 thingy. My collection is entirely NTSC-J though so...err...yeah...

**o1s1n** · 31-01-2012, 15:20

I'd be the exact same with the Saturn myself. The games I mostly have are Ntsc-j. Have the 4 in 1 for those rare few must have English titles like PDS.

Neal Stephenson, I have something of his somewhere, Cryptonomicon is it? Tough going either way.

Yeah, his books are really hard work. I have Cryptonomicon. I've not got through that one yet, but will do. I admit I stalled halfway through that one because it was so challenging.

Read a Kindle sample of Reamde and loved it. It's a huge read, but seems more appealing to me than Cryptonomicon. Hence the purchase.

If you want a challenging read, try anything by Richard Brautigan. Or Screwjack by Hunter S. Thompson. It's only 30 or so pages long but utterly surreal stuff. Great reading material.

@pdf php: I got that Star Soldier special mini series edition from a guy in Japan. It's Star Soldier. Anything 'Soldier' by Hudson is immediately excellent!

Hope there's a few DW:Gundam fans out there. I have the first two games, they are amazeballs. The 3rd game, graphically, looks utterly divine. And for the price this game costs on Amazon, you should be ashamed of yourself if you don't consider it for a future purchase. No excuses! (Unless you don't like Gundam or Dynasty Warriors games I guess.

).

edit: Surprised nobody has picked up on the rare game in those snaps!

Couple of quick photos of some of the stuff I picked up today. Haven't had time to photograph the supergun or the new PCB yet. Soon!

@Pyong - how much for the 3.5" enclosure?
