    Just nabbed myself a clear Neo-Geo Pocket Color on ebay.
    That completes the set I think and I now have all the colours that were released.
    The price could have been cheaper but I got it for 50 euro inc delivery and it appears to be in pretty good condition.

    Sellers pic by the way.
    I don't own a table mat nearly as cool as that :)

    It's an all new game, very much is that cool style of the console versions.
    I thought 15 was at the edge of what I'd send on it, especially when it was without either not or manual.
    But it's a title that I haven't seen around much and I have a feeling that DS titles are about to get harder to find.
    Here is a link to the Gamefaqs page on the game..

    Picked up Shockwave Assault for PSX in a charity shop for €2. I hope the little old lady in the shop hasn't ripped me off..

    At the risk of sounding like Retr0, it hasn't aged well at all. Still though, for two quid you can't go far wrong.

    I just picked it up today in Gamestop in town! €14.99, although it's a copy from the Netherlads so the manual is in Dutch but game is in English! Also picked up the massive Pokémon heart Gold and Soul Silver guide for 4.99, Megadrive collection on the 360 for €9 and Virtua Tennis 2 on the DC for a euro.

    I'm guessing the R Pi doesn't include a power cable, can you recommend where to get one?

    Really good price, I'm still finding those 2nd hand in GameStop for €30. :rolleyes: PokéWalkers included?

    Reconsidering whether to head into RAGE more than once ever 2 months or so. Was it the VT2 disc only, or did it come in an original case?

    Where did you get Inazuma Eleven 2 from and which version did you get? Blizzard or Firestorm?

    Had to get it online. Argos have it in the catalogue but it's not in stock anywhere. I got it with amazon but the Hut group should still have copies. Looks like no bricks and mortar shops got the game in in ireland.

    I got Blizzard version.

    Saw both versions in Smyths Tallaght the weekend think they were €35 but don't hold me to that.
    Don't have a DS at the moment cos my son broke all the bloody DS's in the house:(

    Ah, I checked every place except Smyths :) Looks like it's going to be a tough one to find all the same. Could be a future radiant silvergun!

    Could be. Might try pick up both versions though there is only minimal difference.
    I see there's a couple more games available in Japan, wonder if they'll ever get localised?

    I don't think we'll see the rest of the DS games but hopefully the 3DS ones will. I hope the TV show takes off here.

    Watched some of the show in Japanese, seemed a bit samey but I'd still watch it:)

    Two new items arrived today (after all the 'excitement' of audio gear last week).

    Phelios [Mega Drive, NTSC-J, CIB]
    'A1 Sharon' condition and the Georgie Burgess of SHMUPS for the Mega Drive, and, given I've just started learning Japanese properly, I can tell you that the katakana on the front cover says 'Phelios' and the bottom part says 'Mega Drive'. :D

    Shikigami No Shiro Evolution: Blue Label [XBOX, NTSC-J, CIB]
    This edition of Shikigami no Shiro comes in two cheeky flavours. Red and Blue. If my facts are correct, the Blue Label edition has a lower print run than the red so it's a bit harder to find. It comes with two discs, the game and a 'confidential' PC-CD ROM disc.

    Sorry for the late reply!

    Any USB charger that has at least 1A of juice will do.

    And buy a micro usb cable also, I like the idea of having it detachable so you can use the usb adapter for many other uses.

    If you're ordering from Farnell for the first time then you should see some under "what else people have bought"

    I'm currently using something almost identical to this that I bought in maplin:

    http://www.dealextreme.com/p/usb-travel-charger-with-eu-us-uk-au-plug-adapters-white-dc-5v-2-1a-116328?item=4

    sku_116328_1.jpg

    Puts out upto 2A when 1 usb device is connected, 1A each if 2 are connected, and 500ma each, if 3 or 4 are connected.


    This one is cheap but I'm not sure if it's really 1A:

    http://www.dealextreme.com/p/1000ma-usb-ac-adapter-uk-2380?item=1

    However I prefer an adapter where the usb cable plugs into the top,
    so for only 2.17 delivered this would definitely be worth a look:

    http://www.ebay.ie/itm/110814460430?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649

    image-2.jpg

    Will probably even end up ordering that myself at some stage.

    Not aged well is being kind. Game play is poor and as for the FMV, last time I saw acting that bad a lot less clothes were being worn..
