10/31/2023: Localization News - Dead of the Brain 1!

No, NOT a trick, a Halloween treat! Presenting the Dead of the Brain 1 English patch by David Shadoff for the DEAD last official PC Engine CD game published by NEC before exiting the console biz in 1999! I helped edit/betatest and it's also a game I actually finished in 2023, yaaay! Shubibiman also did a French localization. github.com/dshadoff/DeadoftheBrain

sold...went for $45 each

Yeah I had no idea they did that. I don't see it on my end at all. Really don't appreciate it being assumed I cash in on that though...I don't see a penny haha. So eBay makes fees on me and on buyers? Typical

Well their $45 a pop now, and I'll ship to canada, so it's cool
#3
Prices adjusted on eBay as well. Nothing I can do about shipping and import fees for Canadians...that's eBay
#4
Plus I don't set shit on the "import" or shipping charges. That's ebays deal. All international packages go to their warehouses and they forward them. If you buy and live in the US it's $4 shipped and tracked, $5 combined if you take both

And eBay keeps those import fees. I certainly don't see them
#5
I already lowered the prices on these here...should count for something. Haven't even gotten around to adjusting eBay today.

Like I said, not up on the prices. I nicely took people's advice above, happily I might add

And in the US no package from Japan would ever show up that quickly. I order something that isn't EMS and it's two weeks + $10 if not more in shipping

I said I was open to offers. That I'd let them go for a fair price. I thought $55 was good, with $10 off if people wanted both.

$45 each from here on out. Shipped from the US. I'm not looking to make some massive profit. Owned them for years and thought someone else might enjoy them. Sorry I bothered
#6
Yes but considering shipping from Japan (they were all overseas) and a two week shipping wait, I figured $55 seemed fair since they are centrally located in the middle of the US

Quote from: elderbroom on 07/28/2014, 09:44 PMKudos for taking the pricing input like a champ !  Some get defensive, and parade off to eBay hoping to lure a sucker.  Wanting them to land with a true gamer, for a fair price is certainly the attitude I like to see.  =D>
Haha thanks. My entire collection is made up of items from other collectors, so I always try to pass things along when I can so someone new can enjoy them

Team Innocent was always my favorite. It felt more "next gen" compared to the PC-Engine hardware. Wish it was translated when I played it though.
#9
I'd totally pick up a copy if it was produced somehow. Would look nice on my shelf next to Parasol Stars
#10
Glad bomberman 94 made the list. Second favorite behind Saturn bomberman

I feel like Rondo is too easy of a pick though. Love the game, but so many other good ones available (same with SF II)
#11
Bomberman 94 first stage music. I can hum it from memory any time
#12
Did a bit more research...

$55 each or $100 for both. Message me if interested

Thanks for the pricing feedback guys. Like I said, neo-geo is more my area (although I love my PC-Engine collection. Just beat these two years ago and know I will never play them again)

Quote from: wildfruit on 07/28/2014, 04:44 PMI dont buy smoke free
haha I can blow some smoke on them in the box if it helps

Fair enough on prices...I am way less versed on PC-Engine stuff than Neo-Geo stuff. I am open to fair offers. I'd rather them find a good home than sit in my game room for the next ten years
#15
Hello all,

Don't usually post here to sell, but considering it's PC Engine stuff, figured I'd leave a sales thread. All my feedback is available on neo-geo.com or ebay under the same username as here (awbacon)

Owned by me for almost ten years, and from a smoke free/pet free home

Override - complete in mint condition. Excellent manual and hucard, plastic sleeve and foam insert included - $45

Dead Moon - same condition as above, includes plastic sleeve and foam insert - $45

Take both for $85

Paypal only. +4% fees or gift payment (assuming nobody is going to want gift payment since I don't normally sell on here). Will ship international but only as "gift" payment.

I ship quick and package so it survives a bomb blast.
#16
but if it ends up being the cable, I will for sure contact someone on here for a replacement
#17
Thanks guys, that's that I assumed too...bad solder joints. I was just wondering, since my DC has the same issue, and the solder joints are fine (shit aftermarket cable is the issue)

I'll have to open it up and have a look
#18
My Duo-R has been having some AV issues lately. Basically (and simply) if the AV cable wiggles at all, the image and audio black out or distort. Reposition it correctly, and it's fine (until it gets bumped)

I've had a Dreamcast with the same issue that's lived forever, but I want to keep my Duo-R up and running smoothly. Thoughts on problem? All I can come up with is A) bad AV cable or B) cracked solder joints inside

Once you seat the cable correctly, as long as it's not jostled, the system is perfect for as long as you keep it on

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide!

its been sold

I ended up going with a Duo-R console, so my Core Grafx II and Super-CDROM2 attachment are currently just hanging out in the closet.

The Core Grafx II is in perfect shape. The Super-CDROM2 is in fully functioning shape, but the eject button is pissed off to a slight degree. I had a friend re-grease the cd rom tracks, but I didn't really want to do much to the eject button. It works fine, its just 'sticks' a bit.

Comes w/ all the necessary cables, but NO controller.

$150 + shipping. I uber-pack all my shipments, and its USPS w/ delivery confirmation or no sale. Paypal only please

Also willing to trade for AES / Import Saturn / PC Engine / Jaguar / PC-FX games, so tell me what you have and I may be interested if they are some of the better ones

Pics available upon request. Its packed away in the closet, so serious buyers only before I go dig it out

TRADE LIST

AES - Matrimelee / The Last Blade / any shooters / other carts (tell me what you have)
PC Engine - Shooters (cd and hucard), Rondo of Blood
Jaguar - Tell me what you have
PC-FX - Zenki / Super God Trooper Zeroigar
Neo Geo CD - Ironclad / other shooters
