Flaregon, I ha ve been after both the Wii and XBox 360 versions of Onechanbara for ages! Was going to buy it on XBox in Australia, but EB Games had lost the disc

Ciderman, I had Nanostray 2 on DS, that was a great little shooter!

I want the ps2 version its a 505 game called zombie zone.

Got some Sentinel64 protective cases for Super Famicom games and Game Boy/ Game Boy Advance. They look really well actually and of course offer that awesome protection and nice finish.

They cost a little more than other cases, but the quality really is great.

So, its mine !

I've wanted one of these for a very long time and it's finally mine.
Admittedly I'd have loved to have picked up an original Atari Pong machine but they are quite expensive so the same design but slightly better and cheaper to boot.
Unlike the following Pong consoles which had removable controllers and moved away from the original design, Super Pong is identical aside from the colour of the label and a four position switch for the different games.
And it is costing me €55 posted from the US.
Happy days!

A few more smilies just to show just how pleased I am

It's not so much an RGB mod as a B&W mod!
And the dot, its supposed to crawl, from one side of the screen to the other!

Lucky fecker, I've only ever gotten junk (comparatively) in that bin when they're doing a clearout.

Must pop past RAGE more often...

Does anyone know when I am going to be allowed to post images in the forum? Apparently I am not allowed

In good news, my first package turned up today! In my possession are Assault Suit Leynos 2 and Guardian Heroes for Japanese Saturn, Genji: Days of the Blade for PS3, Killer7 for PS2, and both Mega Games 1 + 2 for Mega Drive!

I think you have to have 50 posts before you can post pictures and links on boards.

They slowly seem to be turning things around in the RAGE which is good and it seems to be in part due to the manager Rob's attitude towards the place since he took over.

He gave me 5 free Dreamcast promo discs there a while ago which are fully fledged white label games.

He also said he'd keep an eye out for demos and more promos and keep them behind the desk for me until the next time I pop in.

I also bought a copy of Super Mario All-Stars in there and even though he wasn't serving me he saw me and told the guy at the counter to give me a discount.

THIS is how you create loyal customers The R.A.G.E.

Kudos.

Answer:

New users will be unable to post images, attachments or links before they reach 50 posts or are members for 10 days (they must meet both criteria). If they try to, they will receive an error message telling them that they cannot post images or links.

Cool, no problem! at least I know now

Thanks Myrddin!

Do The R.A.G.E have a website/store? I would love to support Irish businesses but live way out west, where we have Gamestop and CEX. Both are driving distance away too.

They are peculiar when online.
They have a FB presence but won't publish prices, but they will tell you over the phone.
Plus they have a mail order service so you can bag a few games even of you live off the reservation!

Retropolis use to sell some good stuff on facebook too but he hasn't had much lately, might be worth adding them too though

Cool, I know Retropolis are on Adverts.ie as well. There's a few bits I would like in that store.

I got the rubber kit, a load of bulbs,shiny new balls and the stereo sound kit for Jurassic park.
Going to tear into it later.Complete teardown of the playfield and clean it .
It could do with some extra led lighting at the back but funds are low atm so that can wait.
I'll take a few pics of the process

Is there anything quite like the feeling of bliss when you have a brand new console under your arm and are heading home?

Yep! Mario and Luigi premium pack with two games.

Then for some reason, Argos gave me Mass Effect 3, Fifa 14 and Metroid Other M (?) free.

Next thing to pick up is a pro controller methinks

Tomo.Murphy

Seems to be Argos' new deal. 3 free game with either of their WiiU bundles.
