I'd buy that for a $: Retro bargains

Oh they are very nice now.

I can't though, have 4 of those 9 inch Sonys now so this is just overkill

There's a shop in Dublin just down the road from me with a 9 inch PVM in a flightcase. They want €90 for it though. I have to walk passed it every day and see it in the window.

€90 is just mad. I would have gone at a push to €60 purely for the novelty of getting it locally but couldn't stomach paying that for it.

I'm sure someday I'll cave

Jack burton · 24-10-2018 5:53pm

The 2 ones I have on the way would have been about €80 I think.

But that's including shipping which is a killer.....but I caved

Two lovely looking little 6 inch PVMs over on adverts.

Downside, he wants 120 euro each which is a bit mad.

What’s a realistic price for both of them ? That’s me offering him 120 for both.

geotrig · 25-10-2018 11:55am

They are 6" and would be grand for testing or the novelty factor but i think 120 for both is too much even never mind each ! I havent kept up with prices so i could be way off now
Before prices went up I bought my 9" for 30-35 including postage from uk ,monitor was 10 quid and postage was the rest

CosmicSmash · 25-10-2018 1:16pm

I think the 14" bvm from DragonBox worked out at 125 including delivery. I think that price would verge on dreamer of the year territory.

Jack burton · 26-10-2018 11:45pm

Bit off topic but I have a retro gaming themed shirt releasing tomorrow night. In case any of you lot are interested

eddhorse · 29-10-2018 4:54pm

That is awesome

Jack burton · 29-10-2018 6:09pm

Thanks dude!

Listed my CiB Link to the Past here. It's a US copy, but is in excellent shape. Adverts tax factored in here

CiDeRmAn · 31-10-2018 8:56pm

Cart only Super Probotector going for €30.
Label a little torn but still.

I was only playing Probotector on the Megadrive last night. How similar is the SNES version do you know?

They're totally different games.

Contra Hard Corps/Probotector on the Megadrive are much better games than their SNES counterparts IMO.

CiDeRmAn · 03-11-2018 6:01pm

Few bits here in CEX Northside.
Metroid Prime Trilogy for €40
Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise for €3.50
Kirby's Adventure for €20
Physical copy of Shovel Knight for the WiiU, €15

I've put up a soft-modded Wii with Rondo of Blood installed.

Inviere · 05-11-2018 6:31pm

Somebody take this for €80 - https://www.adverts.ie/arcade-retro/zelda-a-link-to-the-past-complete-in-box-us-ntsc/16608448

I agree with oisin. They are very different games and I much prefer the mega drive one. The super Nintendo game is more popular though.

The problem with the snes game is it is only really 4 really good stages and 2 poor mode 7 ones. The megadrive game is a boss rush game really but if you like bosses it's incredible. There's so many and they are all so well designed.

If you like the Megadrive game then shattered soldier on the PS2 is by the same team and really good as well.

Net Yaroze PS1 on adverts, not something you see that often over here

https://www.adverts.ie/playstation/sony-playstation-net-yaroze-dtl-h3002/16457942

CosmicSmash · 09-11-2018 2:58pm

If it was in better condition I'd definitely be making an offer, as you said you don't see them every day.

Jack burton · 09-11-2018 3:04pm

I made an offer but actually hope it doesn't get accepted haha. Have too many things to pay for this month

DaveyDave · 09-11-2018 3:36pm

It seems like all the things he said it doesn't come with are things you'd want to have with something like that...

CiDeRmAn · 09-11-2018 4:43pm

Looks lovely but as much use as a chocolate teapot with no disks, cables or documents.

o1s1n · 09-11-2018 4:46pm

Ah it's just a collector's piece really, I doubt anyone would be buying it to make homebrew games. Could use it as region free PS1.

See it's sold now anyway!

I've done that myself before on more than one occasion, who hasn't. :pac:

DaveyDave · 09-11-2018 5:30pm

Collector's item no doubt, but I'd love to have all the bits with something like that! Seems a bit strange to have nothing at all though. Developer stuff is interesting, it's a shame that the documents and software got lost along the way.

The colour does look pretty well.

Should you have buyers remorse, I can help you out

[Deleted User] · 09-11-2018 6:37pm

As far as I know the only equipment you'd need for full functionality for that net yaroze is a usb to serial converter and a modchip. Boot discs and such are available online.
Good price for the yaroze and i'd say the accepted offer on it is a timewaster

Broken Sword trilogy on sale for a euro, steam keys
https://www.fanatical.com/en/game/broken-sword-trilogy-new
Great price for the games and it's from an authorized seller rather than your g2a, kinguin etc.

CosmicSmash · 12-11-2018 10:06pm

I have a few bits up on Adverts including a GDEMU. A half decent offer from a regular poster will buy it. I'm not putting it up on the market place after the cabinet fiasco.
