Just sprung for a copy of Nights into Dreams on the PS2.
It's a superior version, the one they based the HD rerelease on for the current console gen.
Now I have some cracking Saturn games, including Panzer Dragoon, Sega Rally and Nights, on the PS2!

We can arrange that, just be prepared to be judged poorly by your peers if you like it more than the Saturn original!

So I went to Rage for the first time today. Bought Street Fighter 2 anniversary edition which is great BUT when I got home I opened the case and theres no disc!! Argh. Went to ring them and of course it's too late they're closed. Not happy. God knows when I'll next be in town as well.

There being shipped from the US

I got pissed off with the americans finding games 1-2
dollars at flea markets so I contacted a guy from the us
willing to sell his doubles 2 dollars a piece.
Then he deducted the price a little for buying in bulk
and added on shipping.
Now I just need to region mod an nes

Theres only one copy of that in the lot.
Theres
Excitebike
SmashTv
Double Dragon 1
Double Dragon 2
etc.

Well arrived back in work today with two packages awaiting me.
One was Korg DS-1, nice.
The other was two unboxed gba games that I paid €50 for....
I'll let that sink in...
Of course the envelope should've contained another 4 games and a Famicom gba micro.
Arse!

What? I was like €50 for two gba carts! No way, whats the ciderman doing?
Then I was like, oh wait there's more and what that's worse.

What happened there? Was that through adverts? Hopefully the buyer made a mistake and isn't just one of those rare breed of adverts dodgy dealers.

Hope it works out

OwaynOTT · 01-07-2013 10:11AM

also hopefully you used paypal.

Paypal, a great bunch of lads.

James Howlett · 01-07-2013 10:28AM

Picked these up at a Market yesterday for a total of €10.
I have always wanted one of these mini playstations so I'm delighted with this. All I need now is one of the mini-screens to hook into the back of it. I nearly purchased battle arena toshinden but the chap selling it wanted €8...

I can across one seller at the Market who had a load of decent playstation 1 games, maybe of which I was going to buy. The cases were dirty but not beyond cleaning and most had their manuals however every disc was a blank cd with the name written on it in black marker. Such a bummer.

CiDeRmAn · 01-07-2013 12:05PM

Aha!
Egg on face!
Turns out my Gba Micro was, in fact, in another castle!
It was stashed in our reception.
And it's lovely, perfect nick too.
It has the Famicom controller 2 faceplate but that was only available from the Club Nintendo site.
And the rest of it seems genuine, the machine has the correct colored casing and the Mario 20th Anniversary logo.

And one other wrinkle...
It's not Nintendo
Nowhere on the device is the Ninty logo to be found.
No,
This is an iQue Gameboy Micro!
Not sure if that makes it more interesting or just more likely to be a fake.
Interesting times and all that.

Chinese version.

It could have had its housing replaced.
Check the motherboard to see does it say Nintendo and compare the green motherboard to another micro.Fakes have a different shade of green.

I know.
iQue is how Nintendo products are labelled over in China.
So, no surprises once I saw the name on the back.
I was concerned that the whole thing might be counterfeit but upon playing it all seems legit.

Any chance of putting up a pic of it?
Sounds a good deal

Yeah, I'll post some pics later.
I'd love to pair it with a Nintendo Famicom GB Micro, with the P1 controller faceplate.

For the time being I think I'll sell my blue Micro, I'll stick it up on the Marketplace

Yeah, the iQue brand is so Ninty can legally sell stuff in Chinaland is it not?
I got a few sealed iQue players from China, nice little curio's but not worth playing really.

Indeed! He may be putting some pics up later this evening he said earlier

OwaynOTT · 01-07-2013 04:10PM

It will be more like later tonight.

CiDeRmAn · 01-07-2013 08:30PM

So, as promised, here's some pics of my new GB Micro

Interesting front, with the Club Nintendo controller 2 Famicom faceplate

Then Bam!
IQue Gameboy Micro!

CiDeRmAn · 01-07-2013 08:37PM

Just had a scoot around the interweb and this thing, if genuine, seems to be rather rare....
Perhaps worth a few more bob than the paltry €50 I paid, including postage.
