The “What-Did-You-Buy-Today?” Thread

I figured it was either out west or down south. Us New Englanders lead sheltered lives from many fine establishments found in those areas.

JapanTokei · 10/27/2011, 07:08 PM

Did you have shoprite there hoobs? I lived in NY burbs as a kid at that was the big chain there in the days.

hoobs88 · 10/27/2011, 10:22 PM

We had Shop Rite but they all went out of business. Here's a short list of gems that we lack: Chick-Fil-A, Sonic, Waffle House, Steak N Shake, In and Out Burger.

I bought a copy of Blazing Lazers.

For an opening post that's a mighty fine choice of words. Welcome!

Thanks you.

I've been really digging my TG16 since I got it earlier this year, just recently traded some stuff for Bonks Revenge and Ordyne, both of which have been eating up a lot of my spare time.

And figured I'd join the site since I've heard it mentioned numerous times over at AtariAge and what better place to get recommendations on games then a forum dedicated to the subject. At the moment I'm really hoping my next buy will be a region modded Duo-R sometime in the near future. I found the site of a guy who sells him but sadly haven't heard from him in a while. :/

There are a few guys on here that deal in Duo-Rs. Post a WTB thread in the PC Engine sales forum. I recommend a guy that goes by the name Keith Courage.

machomadness · 10/28/2011, 02:49 AM

I bought the first two DVD sets of "Turbo Views". I love his reviews and I cannot wait to see the special features.

I live in Jersey and we have ShitRites up the ass. We also have Sonic(FINALLY) and if one opens up near you, GO! They are HIGHLY recommended! I wish we had a Waffle House over here. I'm a wrestling fan(obviously) and I've heard NUMEROUS stories about that place.....

Quote from: JapanTokei on 10/27/2011, 06:50 PMHoobs Meijers is a chain in the midwest. I got to know about it when i went to college at the univ of michigan ann arbor. As students we aleays drove there to pickup stuff. I remeber even using the now defunct priceline bid-ur-own price card there to get gas and groceries!!! My how fast times go by. At least TG/pCe is eternal awesomeness

I went to an Ultra Food grocery store near my house. They had Franken Berry and Boo Berry on display.

BlueBMW · 10/29/2011, 09:51 PM

Turbokarma has been in overdrive this month. Deals have been hitting left and right.... lowball bids have somehow won auctions.... I'm not sure what's going on but deal after deal is going well. Here's some recent stuff that came in:

Most of it is from that large lot that was for sale a while back. The second boxed duo was a "broken" one from ebay.. ended up being a bad video cable...

Please no PMs on the stuff yet, as I'm still deciding how to and what to trade / sell / give away of that lot.

Na, Bemby, you shouldn't feel guilty. These Duos are in loving hands and very generous hands.

Talk about sensory overload!

Nice pile of obey beamer! Lovin' the boxed games.

Glad to see you picked up Nam-1975! It is one of my top 5 faves on the Neo Geo. Not many games out there like this.

Is there is Neo Geo PAC for the LaserActive? There should be.

Would be awesome, but sadly the PAC slot is actually smaller then a Neo Cart...

That sounds like a far more ambitious mod than me painting a Duo Tap with a LA logo.

Couple of good deals on ebay items that I picked up recently

JapanTokei · 10/31/2011, 02:34 PM

Really? I kept on seeing this go for 100+. Did you get a BIN steal somehow?

Yea.. I got it really cheap, much much less than "the going rate" on ebay....

I take it the only difference between it and a regular Super Casette Vision is the color scheme?
