He has Protector/YASI for sale... very tempted on that one, though without an overlay it doesn't really offer anything different from the version on my VecMulti cart.
Stramash Zone has not been released to the masses in the form of a download, only a limited physical release, and it is outstanding.
And I need it... I really really do...
Maybe I should sell something in the collection to fund it...
Noticed that too, I’d imagine that will go for a lot, Jim has said he’ll be doing another run at some stage so best to wait it out I’d imagine0 -

Heads up for anyone that owns an Oculus Quest or a Rift.
Path of the Warrior is on sale for €13.99 on the Quest store.
https://www.oculus.com/experiences/quest/2032870023439846/
It's cross buy so that if you buy it on the quest store you get the rift version free when you search for it on the rift store after buying it on the quest store. You do not need a quest to buy it.
It's like jumping into the world of streets of rage or double dragon in VR!

Man this quest 2 is amazing, between large floor area box you can set, camera out if bounds box, and remotes are like two wiimotes on steriods with accurate 1 to 1 tracking is freakishly accurate.
Best of all Vader immortal and this VR headset goes down in my all time wow moments in gaming.
I literally nearly fell over as went to lean on part of the ship at one stage it was that real feeling.
Highly recommend it...0 -

Gahh as a Vive owner I'm a bit pissed off as its an oculus 'exclusive'.
Still my son's getting a Quest 2 off Santa , so might persuade him to let me try it.0 -

He had it listed originally at 350 buy it now/make offer. I reckon a solid offer will get him to part with it as he's obviously not expecting something stupid.
The real rarity is that blue rental cps that Capcom put out. Tried to find a picture but cant. Rare!
Another oddball is the home console that Capcom released, the cps power changer (?). Goes for mental money. Basically a supergun for cps games. I think you could only buy them off Capcom directly.
Capcom made cool stuff
Here's a video

I used to have a few pictures of the blue CPS s somewhere( as close as I've gotten to owning one)and there Is a few over this side of the world , mainly French collections though..
I'm fairly sure Japj a c designed ,built ,sold and bought all the CPS changers... P)
Varths a funny one, never been hard to find but never loads on sale either and hasn't seen the increases in price like the rest of CPS stuff and rightly so it's very average game, there is quiet a few decased ones about ( similar to cps1. 5s )

Very unusual to see these anymore, the Capcom cased Varth. Only one I've ever seen for sale actually.
Is it worth it? Maybe, it's not robbery at least. Will be a long time before you see one again, and Varth is like an hour long shooter, so it has good mileage.
I'd have jumped on this except I've got other arcade stuff on the go that's going to suck up money.
I see it sold, was that you??

He reminds me of a guy(but isn't the guy) I bought a load of retro stuff off about 4-5 years ago. I went out to collect the bits in Ballyfermot and he brought me around 3 separate council houses that he was using to store all his gear in. Nobody living there, just loads of arcade and retro bits and other electrical things.
Anyway, went in and picked what I wanted and he nearly doubled the asking price(this after 2 of his mates arrived), said take it or leave it. I said, ok I'll leave it and then he accepted the original price!
Very strange chap indeed, no checkerboard floor though
If I was going to get stuff off this checkerboard dude, I wouldn't be going alone!0 -

Hah, that's fantastic!
My most interesting one was meeting a guy from boards who wanted to set up an airsoft site back in 2006. Myself and a mate went to check the gear he'd imported.
Turns out he wasn't bringing us to a storage site, but a public field in Swords.
He brings us to a spot down the field with a couple of bags of guns, and sets up a hubcap as a target - then proceeds to pull out an AK47 and starts laying into the target.
After about 5 minutes of this I can see kids up on a hill pointing down at us in the distance - I start getting very sheepish and start trying to make excuses to leave.
Unfortunately I'm not very good at this kind of a thing and took a bit too long getting out of there as he kept twisting my arm to have a go and let him know what I think.
With that, a lone Garda came over the crest of the hill, with a 'What's going on here now, lads?' look on his face.
We explained the situation to him, how it's all a massive misunderstanding and think that's that - he then asks us to walk back over the crest of the hill with him.
As we get over the hill, we are greeted by the Armed Response Unit with guns drawn and about six squad cards with flashing lights and an army of Gardai.
Moral of the story - don't meet people you don't know off the internet, kids. And especially don't meet them to look at guns :eek:0
