The “What-Did-You-Buy-Today?” Thread

[Lilgrafx]

he started yelling "darkness!" and refused to buy it. He says darkness when ever I want to buy a PCE game, because for what ever reason he only wants me to get TG16 stuff.

what a very strange bro

Hahaha he's cool he just says that because he used to have too many games on the shelf, so he decided to sell off the shitty systems like 32x and SEGA CD. When we sold all of it we just referred to worthless systems like the 32x as darkness as a joke. Don't know why he has that opinion on PCE stuff.

[Samurai Ghost]

Been buying tons of SEGA stuff these days. Finally opened these guys up today!
Thanks to Bartre for the repros of Alien Soldier and Battle Mania 2. They look great!

Here are my recent pick ups. the Gunpey, cookie and cream, and meteos were found at good will.

I love DKC Returns, They need to make more. Also How is Lollipop Chainsaw? Ive heard mixed reviews on it. Some say the controls are odd and some say the games to short and the bosses too easy. Ill prolly pick it up buy when its used in a year.

I really like Suda 51. Thats why i got it. I enjoy it. I think the controls are fine. Im not really to far yet though. I say if you arent really a big fan of suda 51 games (killer 7 no more heroes) then wait until its cheaper. Also im sad about this but im returning the DKC tomorrow to the game store. my girl bought it used for me and they charged her $40 for it. Which is way over priced for a used copy of the game.

HOLY SHIT, $40 used? Yea take it back. Im sure you can find it cheaper on ebay lol.
O im a fan of Suda 51 and ive enjoyed their games. $60 not so much a fan of lol

[SMF]

Pity. I still feel bad for not being able to attend a reunion show though.

I was suppose to go to the show in Cleveland in July but um thats been postponed untill further notice. Im pissed to i got the AMEX preorder seats and had AWESOME SEATS. Crossing fingers they still come. The lady at the Q told me they didnt cancel so i can still save my seats. SO lets wait and see.

Ela, nice haul! What are the FDS games you picked up?

[PunkCryborg]

Falsion and JJ Tobidase aka 3d world runner

How is Falsion? I was always curious about that game.

Got some good games in there, nice Soldier Blade too. There were tons of great Famicom games that never made it over to the US for whatever reason. A lot of really really really bad games never game over as well, but there were some good ones.

Also I see you have Hokuto no Ken in there. Do you have a Mark III or JP SMS or a converter for something else? I love Hokuto no Ken for the SMS but I have to say Black Belt is almost better because they kept the parallax scrolling from the first level in most of the game. Plus some other changes that make it worth owning both versions.

There must be something false with it

I have a Japanese SMS with a US converter. I watched a good chunk of Hokuto No Ken recently and loved it, there's 3 Hokuto No Ken games in that lot actually. That's my first Mark III game though. I have a pretty decent SMS collection but would like to replace most of it with the Mark III versions over time.

I paid about 120$ for Tryrush, good price for this rare and expensive gem. Really fun side scroller/platformer exclusive on saturn. Now, Id really like to track down a copy of Super Tempo at a decent price.

[roflmao]

Here's what I've picked up recently.



Big thanks go out to T2KFreeker, Black Tiger and city41 for most of the OBEY.









Picked up this lot of Genesis and SNES carts today at a local used stuff store for about $75:


Sunset Riders and Lightening Force


Forgotten Worlds is the one without the title on the front.


Streets of Rage 2 is the one without the title on the front.



I couldn't believe I found both Earthbound and Final Fantasy III out in the wild.

[PikachuWarrior]

Nice jealous!

[FiftyQuid]

Feet not included. 

[Nando]

How much were the kids legs ;)

[TheClash603]

I was going to ask how much he paid for those feet.  Always a good idea having spare parts, I have a freezer full of human organs.

[roflmao]

Yeah, my boy wanted to be in the pic.

[Sparky]

Hahaha nice roflmao.

In the mail for me from Bernie .... Thanks so much man For the trade... Huggles

[Mathius]

Wow! Nice hauly!

[FiftyQuid]

Hahaha nice roflmao.

Wow, it looks brand fricken new!

[Samurai Ghost]

Yeah, that Shuttle is in great shape! Most of the time I see them they are scratched up pretty badly. Controller looks good too!

[Sparky]

Well it was Black Tigers, then Bernie's then a good trade later its back in canada again to me .
Been wanting one of these for awhile now, sorry samurai was hoping to buy from you but I could not pass on the trade Bernie and I did.

[Samurai Ghost]

No problem, I don't think any of mine look quite that nice! Whatever the trade was it worth it!

[turbokon]

Got the LT from bluebmw the other day. Actually it's loaner. I can't believe how amazing the LCD on it is.

[roflmao]

Yowza!

[Nando]

Oh that's all sorts of awesome. I had no idea it could hook up to the ifu...wow

[Opethian]

the SCD dock is pretty damn hard to find and probably expansive if you did find it. the IFU is the cheaper way to add CD to your LT

[BlueBMW]

A few goodies arrived recently... fixed one of them, still need to fix the little one.  The XVI-HD works, and actually had a working hard drive in it!  Had to redo the power supply and clean it up a bunch.  The 68030 compact needs work, but is fixable.

[Nando]

IT HAS ARRIVED! lol

They look to be in decent condition as well. Very nice!

[Lilgrafx]

Bought SNK VS Capcom and Metal Slug: First Mission for $16 at my local store, they had like 4 NGPC boxed for $50

[Deletion]

First I picked up a RAU-30 adapter with box & manual. The unit itself is in absolute mint condition and looks like it was never used. Bought it off eBay from a US seller for $50.

/20120701213rau30.jpg   /20120701212rau30.jpg



Of course then I needed a SuperGrafx. So I got one with with region and RGB mods, SCART cable, and a complete copy of Mad King Granzort from doujindance (eBay) for $200.

Close-up shot of the region-mod switch.

Here they are all mated together. The IFU and CD-ROM² care of our very own Samurai Ghost (https://www.pcengine-fx.com/forums/index.php?topic=5360.msg228180#msg228180).

[Opethian]

nice SGX! how does Aldynes look? I have always wanted to play SGX in RGB!

[Deletion]

I don't have Aldynes.   Granzort looks and plays well though.   I have the system hooked up via composite as I'm still looking for my first SCART converter.

[Opethian]

If you dont have a monitor that can take in RGB adapting it to VGA would look nice and wont require an encoder.

[turbokon]

Nice deletion but you cd deck could use a little whitening:)

[bob]

Forgive me, but what is this thing?  What does it do for SGX?

[PunkCryborg]

Forgive me, but what is this thing?  What does it do for SGX?

It just allows you to hook up the SGX to a IFU because you cannot plug it in directly due to the shape of the SGX. The Super CD Rom though attaches to the back of a SGX which is a nice set up as well.

[bob]

sick.
