    Picked up a Dingoo A320 on adverts for 35e, handy for quick bus journeys and the like. Plus it means I can get around to playing Earthbound at last

    They are fantastic things, wouldn't be without mine.

    Samurai Aces arrived this morning, a cheap Psikyo shooter to be sure.
    I know many people buy the Japanese editions of these things for the packaging and that's understandable, the instruction manual and cover at for this game are as spartan as I've ever seen, but once the game is cool that's what matters, looking forward to playing out this evening.

    Final Fight One
    Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo Revival
    Super Puzzle Fighter 2

    All to be heading to a letter box near me. All look minty from the pictures as well.

    Oh and apparently there's a Super Off Road in super awesome cardboard condition waiting for me in the workplace as well.

    Two months of barrenness and now I have literally a deluge of cardboard boxes coming in the post. Oh yeah and the games too.

    Mate of mine is doing a big clearout of his games consoles, passing them onto me, along with his games.
    Why is this important?
    Well, firstly, I'm going to try to shift the stuff I already have on Adverts...
    Secondly, he is giving me his Gamecube as well, together with Zelda: TP, I bought it for him as a gift back on release and he never played it, planning to hang onto that one for myself!!

    Nothing so exotic, a megadrive, N64 maybe, Gamecube, a few games, nothing mental...

    From a sound guy(stigsgameroom) who gave me a shout via the youtube channel... :)

    This arrived this morning. Andrew76's incorrect guess. :D

    This is the super rare widescreen CLV edition of Gunhed (the movie of the manga of the PC Engine game, in that order I think too). NTSC-J, CIB. Never produced with an obi (apparently, according to extensive research). Still in it's original cello bag I think too. 100% crispy minty fresh. :)

    Another good day, Tengai and Sol Divide arrived, a mere three days after posting from France, which is nice.
    Both horizontally scrolling Shumps, both by Psikyo games as well.
    Tengai was originally Sengoku Blades and be careful googling that one at work, there are some definite NSFW model kits available of one particular well endowed character.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,750 ✭✭✭ghostchant


    Neat, I picked up Sengoku Blade for the Saturn when in Tokyo last year, the two-disc one (actually don't think it was released without the bonus disk on the Saturn). Haven't had a proper chance to play it yet though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    Will have to post a photos later, spend about €20 on these including postage for everything

    Hooray!
    Two more packages arrived at lunch time!
    Castle of Shikigami 2 for the PS2 and my beloved Fire Shark for the equally beloved Megadrive.
    I always felt my PS2 was one of the most productive consoles in terms of the amount of gaming goodness that it gave up. But now, with all these excellent shooters, my love has increased manifold, despite most of that generations Shump kudos going to the Saturn.

    So, with all these games coming across my desk, I must say sense a certain thrill...


    This must be how Pyongyang feels all the time!

    You're building up a nice collection of shmups Ciderman, excellent stuff. Got a couple of PS2 shmups this week too, will throw up some pics when I'm able.

    Two that I've gotten recently. Very happy with Super Off Road as the box is in excellent condition and I love the game!

    Anything game marvel game is usually a get for me as well, despite a lot of them being poor.

    A red Meg cart? Nice, never seen one of those

    Cool, the Zelda one is nice as well.
    If you get any that are red it will actually be pink by the way.
