    Can't clothe myself in just games, no?

    Radiant Silvergun over one nip, Blazing Star over the other....maybe Symphony of the Night covering the other unmentionables? Might need a nice big MVS cart for that though...:D

    Okay, now I shut up!

    A few more games arrived today, all complete.

    The Lion King (Genesis)
    Taz - Escape from Mars

    I already have the Mega Drive version of The Lion King but I couldn't turn these two down for under 6 euro including postage costs. :D

    I got these as well today -

    TMNT - The Hyperstone Heist
    Alisia Dragoon

    Alisia Dragoon

    Alisa Dragoon is one of my favourite Megadrive games. My grandparents bought it for me on release when I was about 9. At first I can remember my younger self saying -

    'OMFG, IS THIS A GIRLS GAME?!'

    Realized after a few minutes how great it was. The music alone is superb.

    How much did TMNT - The Hyperstone Heist cost if you don't mind me asking? That's always quite expensive.

    I had planned on taking an arse load of pictures when I got my most recent lot of stuff.

    However, it was cut short when I realized the Saturn wasn't working straight out of the box :mad:

    Heres a couple of shots I got before I freaked out, I love that black skeleton controller -

    Assault Suit Leynos 2 -

    DSC_0332.jpg

    I also got as previously mentioned, a load more Saturn stuff. It's all stored away though until I get the console working.

    Also have that Super Famicom travel case. Its really really lovely. Not sure what to put in it yet.

    I haven't played Alisia Dragoon before but I watched a video of it on youtube and though it looked pretty cool, so I decided to get it.

    It was around 24 euro for both including postage. They were listed together.

    I forgot to mention, I got my MD back from Enternow at the start of last week, fitted with 2 switches. :D

    Here's a couple of pics of the case -

    Doesn't really do it justice though, it's so lovely in person. It's also huge. Would happily fit any console you throw at it.

    Trying to think of another use for it though. Bit big for my netbook..might be an excuse to buy a really big laptop :pac:

    Dreamcast & 32 inch tv & Ikaruga flipped sideways & lying on the couch = win! (I'd turn my TV sideways but I is too lazy)

    Christmas lights :D

    Well, I didn't get to play Christmas Nights until now...so I had to leave them up in preparation ;)

    The apartment I'm renting has lights sunk into the ceiling. The bulbs wear out a bit too fast. So I have decided to light the place using Christmas lights instead.

    Never really considered it being odd or anything until now. Damn you :p


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 15,183 Mod ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    Well, it's not odd per se, just....funky, like a house from an Ikea catalogue :D

    What's this? Oisin is excited about getting a dual shock controller for 9 euro including postage?

    Oh wait.. the analog sticks are concave rather than convex?

    The handles are longer than normal?


    Yep, I got an uber rare SCPH-1180 on ebay this morning! For next to nothing..these things are so rare that nobody really knows their true value. And I have a box for one stored away too.

    The analog sticks rotate like mini steering wheels to mimic the playstation flightstick. If you press the analog button twice it goes into 'flightstick mode' and turns green rather than red.

    I don't know whether to stick it up on ebay along with the box or hang onto it?

    Maybe put it up for some silly expensive price and see if I get some interest.

    Anyway, on to the pics!-

    I managed to find my concave analog controller in my attic a couple of weeks ago, I know the box is up there somewhere too but haven't come across it. How much are they meant to go for (with the box that is)?

    That's the thing, nobody really knows. I've searched the internet for an answer and there just isn't one.

    All I ever find is talk of this super rare controller, how they rarely if ever come up for sale..how they're much nicer to hold than a normal dual shock, everyone wants one etc...but I have yet to come across one that is being sold for what it is. The only ones I've seen have been mistaken for dual shock therefore they sell for nothing.

    And that's just the controller. I've never seen a box for one other than the one I happened to get in a Playstation job lot a while back. So it really would be worth your while trying to find it in the attic.

    The more I look at that case the more I wish it was mine lunchbox.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,469 ✭✭✭weeder


    I love that particular controller o1s1n, havent got one but had a loan of one off of a cousin for some time, lovely yokes, wouldnt be afraid to try and retrofit it with dualshock 2 or 3 internals for push sensitivity.

    You'd want to have one massive lunch to put in that. It's more like a dinner box. For five people.

    That's not a bad idea. The Japanese version did have a vibration function, but it was removed for the Western release.

    If I could fit the following:

    Litre of Milk.
    Orange Juice.
    Apple.
    Grapes.
    Pasta.
    Cinnamon or Maple & Pecan Pastry
    Uzi submachinegun.

    I would be happy.
