Right, pics!
I'm guessing no-ones interested in Jim, so...
Awesome back cover:
Generally in good nick apart from a bit of sticker peelage:
Now to find a way to play the darn thing :P
Just happened to be passing by RAGE killing time when they were putting out the new shipment. Didn't even know what game it was on first look, only when I looked at the manual did I see references to M.U.S.H.A. and got interested. Had been googling the other Japanese games to see if they were worth getting, but as soon as I realised what it was I jumped!
Actually felt a bit bad when I checked online and saw the real value! Guy in RAGE was really nice about it (even tried to get it up and running with Action Replay to test it, and googled it for me to make sure it was the right MUSHA!) would have paid more but I genuinely didn't know it went for as much as it did, just knew the game was meant to be awesome and it makes a nice collectible. If our friends in RAGE are reading, you can rest assured I won't be selling it on for profit!0 -

Playing MUSHA on a PAL console so it is slowed down to 50Hz is an absolute sin. The reason the game is so unique and amazing is because it's so bloody fast, it belts along at an absolutely crazy pace. Playing it on PAL would really ruin it. My advice is to get the console modded.
I'd like to chime in with you jammy jammy swine!

Yeah might drop him a PM see what's required.
As said, complete random chance, just burning time before the cinema and lucky days
Don't think we're allowed complain about RAGE prices for a while now! 0 -
Have Bubble Bobble 2 for the NES waiting for me when I go to the US next week.
They have a shop in Jericho, New York called "Frankies" (little bit like RAGE but even smaller and they also sell a nice coffee)that I always check out when I'm there and a friend checks it for me when he gets a chance. He was in last week and they had Bubble Bobble 2 still in its box for 110 dollars. My friend said it was in near mint condition so I asked him to grab it for me.
It's a risk but I still think it was a bargain, even if its just near mint
Only prob is I don't have a US NES or a modded NES or any NES for that matter after my old one was brutally murdered by a moving company some months ago.
So I need to buy a new NES, what's the best option for me to get if I have normal PAL and also US games? Should I get a PAL NES and get it modded or a US NES and get that modded? Does it matter?

Only problem is you'll still be stuck at 50hz!
Best to get an NTSC one. The music in Megaman 2 deserves to be played at it's proper speed
You could get a standard American one and do the easy region mod or buy an American top loader..I'm pretty sure they're region free (you might want to look into that first)0 -

Might just grab a US one then and do this mod on it. Your right about 50Hz, i forgot all about that.
I'll see if I can get one over there and stick it in my luggage on the way back to Ireland.

Bargain hunting - endless disappointment with the occasional spectacular payoff. A mix of luck, a keen eye and some more luck. And yet the buzz when you find that rare gem is hard to beat I rarely check charity shops, but I've found stuff I've been desperately searching for in the most unlikely of places over the years!
MGS3 Subsistence is spectacular, always glad I waited until its release to play MGS3. And SotC - its a one in a million game, bar the frame rate (I jest, I jest!).0 -

Charity shops are very hit and miss. Moreso miss than hit Although the odd gem pop up every now and again, giving you the strength to carry on looking in them! 0 -

Charity shops just aren't what they used to be for old consoles since that damn EU law was introduced regarding electronics.
About 10 years ago or so they were a goldmine! It may have also been something to do with people back then not being as in to retro gaming as they are now 0 -
