    Just won Castlevania 4, a UK pal copy and unboxed, for the princely sum of 27 euro posted, I'm happy with that.

    When the hell did that get expensive?

    See, now that you're a big shot developer you are divorced from the worries of the little people, particularly with regard to matters of retro game prices.
    Very sad..... ;)

    As for when it got expensive, it's all relative, an unboxed copy seems to run at around 40 to 50 euro, before postage is factored in.

    Still, that's another hole filled in my man cave.....
    Go on...
    You know you want to post that gif/jpeg...

    Is this a drunken post or homage to Atavan?

    Homage to me obviously. I'm such a positive Influence :)


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,763 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    I'm not sure I want to live in a universe where Atavan is considered a good role model for others.....
    Rather he is shown as an example of where all that drinking, partying, playing Pokemon and lusting after anything with a v'jay jay will get you....

    Dammit, now I wish I was Atavan!

    Twas a drunken post I think. Can't remember it nor do I know what I'm on about.

    Got two parcels today at the motel. One with US NTSC Zombies and the other with US Mana, US Mystical Ninja, zelda, street fighter 2, super probotector, UN squadron, and turtles tournament fighter.
    All boxed and mint. Very happy.

    I think the post was in reference to Castlevania 4, which I had posted I was getting, you do mention Simon as being a "mad bastid" which must mean Simon Belmont.....


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 53,328 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Got a few things today including two rarities, one was an absolute bargain. Either I got a repro or else Rage just did another MUSHA Aleste.

    First Atelier Iris 1,2 and 3 and Kirby's Dreamland 2

    253917.jpg

    Next Castlevania Legends, one of the hardest to find and ****tiest Vania games:

    That was a steal!
    Europe is great or picking up game boy stuff. How much was it if you don't mind me asking? Castlevania that is.

    Ooh, fail alert. Champion Edition never seen a Snes release. The successor to SF2 was Turbo


    /SF2 Pedant

    Scarleh for yeh!

    I picked up a couple of bits today and got some stuff in the post. Pics shortly!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,927 ✭✭✭TechnoFreek


    So not ever having a snes, sf2 on the snes was street fighter turbo?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 33,733 ✭✭✭✭Myrddin

    Street Fighter 2 came out, but we had to wait for Turbo to ever see Champion Edition {which by then made CE kind of redundant anyway}. Champion Edition never got its own release which would have sat between SF2 & Turbo

    Wasn't that Megadrive SF2 proto release an early version of CE? I think it was just scrapped by Capcom as it wasn't well received.

    Yeah I'm finding ebay.de wonderful for finding stuff and it mostly never turns up in ebay.com or .ie searches. Castlevania Legends only cost 35 euros with postage, pretty good considering it usually goes for 80 I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,927 ✭✭✭TechnoFreek


    So is sf2 on the snes akin to world warrior in the arcades?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 33,733 ✭✭✭✭Myrddin

    No.

    World Warrior was released on the Snes
    Champion Edition wasn't released on the Snes
    Turbo {Hyper Fighting} was released on the Snes, but it had Champion Edition on the same cart. Champion Edition never got its own release, & was kind of wasted on the Turbo cart.

    Any info on it, I've never read about it...

    I'd say it could have been scrapped as if Turbo was about to be released on the Snes, Megadrive owners might be a bit peeved if they only got Champion Edition

    Ah so I have it backwards.

    SF2 Special Championship Edition was released on the Megadrive.

    It'a SF2 Turbo Megadrive build that was scrapped (which has been leaked online to download)
