Nice Evil Dead shirt.  Is the new Steel Battalion green button or blue button?

I think it was Blue, but I wasn't paying close attention. Which one was first run again?

I think green was first.  No matter, controller is awesome either way.

@Crabby

1st Run = Green
2nd Run = Blue

Only limited quantities were made available. These quickly sold out, making the game a collector's piece. It has since been re-released in limited quantities worldwide, with blue controller buttons distinguishing it from the first edition with green buttons.

Congrats on grabbing a great game!

After spending nearly a year getting a lot of issues taken care of, my life has now more or less stabilized, and I'm now getting back into major game hunting on a regular basis.  This is the result of around 2 weeks worth of hunting, the first round of major hunting in some time, which I'm just now getting around to posting because I now work odd hours for 6 days a week.  And I apologize for the lighting quality in the pics as well, as my basement doesn't really have optimum lighting, and I kinda rushed doing this before work.

The systems all work.  The XBox and the PS2 are replacements, as I got rid of my first original XBox a while back, and my other fat PS2 won't read discs anymore and I simply haven't replaced the eye yet.  The PS1 is my third, but it came with a bunch of other stuff in a box for eight bucks, so I wasn't gonna pass that up.  I now also own all three versions of the Genesis, which is a collecting milestone marked off my long list.

That is also the most controllers I've picked up in such a short period.  I finally have a regular grey official N64 controller, and I'm on my third purple one.  The Quickshot joystick, the label-less Zipper, the grey Zapper, and the NES Max controllers all came in the lot with the NES.  Two of the XBox controllers came with the system itself, while the last one came with the PS1 lot, along with the two PS2 controllers.  One of the PS2 controllers is wireless, coming with the receiver and missing the battery cover, but it still works fine otherwise.  The SNES knockoffs are USB PC controllers I got off of eBay.  The boxed joystick is sealed and a thrift store find.

The games are mostly PS1 games, again the result of mostly Goodwill and a couple other thrift stores.  In case you cant' see it in the middle pic, in the upper left corner are 3 NES titles:  Shatterhand, Phantom Fighter, and Hydlide.  The first 2 are game store finds, and Hydlide came from eBay.  The longox NHL Face-Off is another thrift store find, and is in near-perfect shape.  It looks almost as if the plastic wrap was taken off and then it was never touched again.

So I just opened the store and EngineerMike came in with this sweet Batman bag stuffed with decorative tissue paper and presented it to me as a gift. I started digging in and and found these goodies:



All awesome stuff, and that Red Alarm puts me at over half a CIB Virtual Boy Library.

A little further down in the bag was something a bit more special though:



This is a particularly special cart for me as some of you might know. It was the very last licensed NES game that I still needed for my full set. Looks like I owe a great big thank you to: Wildbil, Duke.Togo, EngineerMike, Fleach, SirPsycho, Techwizard, GreyGhost, Slakur, and Banana.

This is one of the most thoughtful gifts I've ever received. I love being a part of this community and the fact that so many of you went out of your way to help me with this achievement is overwhelming. Thank you so much everybody. I hope to be able to return the favor in some way or another to each of you.

You're very welcome good sir! I was happy to play a part in this little surprise and very happy with the outpouring of generosity from some of the sites members. Enjoy the games and hopefully we'll get to see some pics of you standing in front of that awesome collection. Smiley

Onward to the TG16!

Okay, so it's not an "official" Sega CD RAM Cart, but damn if it isn't awesome. Smiley
