Got the M and M III.  Thanks!!!

Was going to bid on a Cotton on Ebay but.......wow........um, I guess I'll be NOT having that one again for the $550 or something it just went for.  Damn!  It is a shame that mine cracked somehow and I don't know why.  Why couldn't it have been Buster Bros. or something cheaper.  Sigh!!

It went for how much?

Chris, just an FYI the Japanese Cotton has an English language toggle, it's basically the same as the US one except the packaging and the fact that the default language is Japanese (just press select on the title screen to change it).

It went for $569.09.

Yeah, I know about the Japanese version.  But, the collector-in-me just won't have it any other way I guess.  Ha ha.   Hopefully someone will just have the Disc randomly sitting around for NO reason one day..... :)

That's insanity, Magical Chase has sold for less in the past six months.

I hear ya'.  At one time I could say "I completed the collection in 2003."  But.........now.......

One was stolen in transit to move here, one was damaged (Cotton) and well.....the rest is too sad.  lol.  :)

Stolen!!!!  Must kill the culprit!!  BIATCHHHHHH!!!  ahem.. anyway, I would just keep the cracked original, and play the burn from the copy I sent ya.  Shit on 500.00 for Cotton.

Idiots who pay these gougers that kind of money is destroying retro gaming! Chris, maybe you could do a special about the damage this is doing to our beloved hobby? Someone needs to get the word out. Someone who has a lot of subscribers. :wink:

That $500+ US Cotton has to be a fluke, I've seen plenty sell in the $50-$100 range. I'm sure you'll be able to get a hold of one for a good price with some persistence Chris.

Persistence?  Is that Latin for......flea market?   ;)

Some body help spida1a out  :wink: Given finding TG16 games in the wild is next to impossible these days  :P

Btw,spida1a whens the next turboviews due it's been many months since the last one.

The sad thing about that $500+ Cotton is that it was probably a resell of the $40 BIN from 2 weeks earlier.  $500 is absurd though, this game has been selling for $100-$125 forever.

Funny enough, I think the guy at the flea market had this for sale by me for $150 and I thought it was highway robbery.

Was able to get Super Star Soldier....thanks Mathius!

So, that's two off the list.  :)

Good luck on finding the Vasteel sleeve!  I needed one and actually just wound up purchasing another copy of the game so that I could have the sleeve.
Title: Re: WTB: Some games and some misc.
Post by: spida1a on September 27, 2011, 12:53:18 PM
Yeah, I'm well aware it's a long-shot.  But.....might as well put it there along with the other want list.   

And, I would do the same if I needed to... :)

Cheaper, but someone just bought this one for $300... still too damn much in opinion:

Hey spida1a! I just joined here a couple of weeks ago after FINALLY picking up a Duo-R... I've basically been lurking around here looking for reasonable (i.e., non-eBay) prices on some CD games, so this is my first actual post, lol.

Anyway, just wanted to come out of the shadows to say that I absolutely LOVE your YouTube channel... your reviews motivated me to get off the fence and jump into Turbo gaming after wanting to for years.

My wallet hates you, btw :P
