I would be pretty happy too, but how will we ever know what's behind Privateer 2 and underneath The Beast Within?!?!

You don't want to know!

It's like Sub-23 and Air Plane Picture Show Simuator.

Got me the Ace Combat 5 flight stick bundle for half the asking price recently. Pretty glad too

Picked up a few things from Ebay:

So won this off of Ebay at an awesome price: http://www.ebay.com/itm/p...mp;_trksid=p2047675.l2557

Paid right away and a day later I get an item cancelled message from Ebay.  The reason given was the item is damaged or out of stock.  I'm like wtf?!?!  A new item isn't defective because it isn't open and the item can't be out of stock because why would you post it on Ebay than?  Man was I pissed so I messaged the seller and I was surprised he responded.  He said all three items he sold were damaged in a flood in his basement so he cancelled the orders.  I'm keeping an eye on this guy to see if these get reposted because all three items were new and sold under new price.

Mario Tennis $25, Wii Party U $20, Star Fox $30.

I don't have a pic to share, but I snagged Dragon Spirit for TG-16 via eBay for $36.  I thought it was an okay deal.  It's CIB minus the outer cardboard box, so just the jewel case, manual, TurboChip, and the nice plastic sleeve.  It even has the little plastic arm that holds the game in the case.

Here are my recent Atari 5200 pickups! Got a big ebay lot of Atari 5200 games. In it was some stuff I needed for my complete set. I got copies of Robotron 2084 and H.E.R.O. to replace my cart only. Also got a couple Homebrews for Atari 5200 in the lot with Castle Crisis and Klax. I didn't have K-razy Shootout, yet.

Overall it was a pretty good deal. Some of these are also replacing copies I have that are in worse shape.

That is a nice stack of games, Fokakis!  I suddenly have a very strong urge to play Gorf...

Got these a month or so back:



I replaced the broken power port on my SNES, but I didn't get picks of the process (fail!).  It was my first real fun with a soldering iron, so I had blinders on.  SNES works great now.



Lunar SSS was my main Father's Day present.  It was only $50 complete, mainly because it smells of cigarette smoke (quite badly when I first got it).  However, after weeks of keeping it in the open air and wipedowns with a dryer sheet it is smelling much better.  Not perfect, mind you, but better.  Also, the front flap is torn.  Looks like somebody got a little overzealous when opening it, and battle between cardboard and Velcro ensued, with the Velcro winning.   Nothing serious, and once I apply a little glue and love it will be right as the mail.

If you can't tell, the Chrono Trigger is a FAKE, which is okay because I wanted to get a bootleg to test out my newly fixed SNES.  The only issue it that the the game plays perfectly!  I know that sounds dumb, but I thought it would be a little glitchy, or maybe Pokemon or something.  Oh well.  Played about ten hours and was reminded why Chrono Trigger is one of the greatest JRPGs of all time.  There is just so much going on and so much attention to detail.  Amazing.

I really hate the sticker on the cart though.  Fake should look fake, in my opinion.  At first chance I will either get a brightly colored cartridge shell to replace it with or maybe a really fake looking sticker.  Who knows.

I've been continuing my fishing game kick. I reeled in the big one for Dreamcast for $35 off ebay. This game is more uncommon than might be commonly realized. I was wading in the water for a few weeks waiting for a non-loose copy to hit the top water. I only need Reel Fishing: Wild and then I have all the US Dreamcast fishing games.
