Title: Is this a good price on a supergrafx with cd add on?
Post by: ryosnk on January 23, 2012, 07:36:06 AM: A coworker is selling the following for $250. I always wanted this system but not sure if it's overpriced or if it's priced just right.

PCEngine SuperGrafx with a boxed SuperCDROM2 attachment,both working and tested and with three games.

The Games are:
1. Madoo King Granzort
2. Ghouls 'n Ghosts
3. Battle Ace

Post by: BlueBMW on January 23, 2012, 07:41:23 AM: That seems pretty good considering the SCD is boxed. And the three games to boot... go for it

Post by: Tatsujin on January 23, 2012, 11:22:15 AM: Yeah, sounds very good to me as well. Won't get much cheaper than that.

Post by: Arkhan on January 23, 2012, 12:20:23 PM: This may be the stupidest question ever!

I mean this in a good, welcome newcomer sort of way!

Buy that shit asap before I drive there and give the guy 251$ for it! :)

go go go! hot damn. You will have the almighty SuperVacuum when you finish assembling it!

I paid around 300$ for a CIBler Super Grafx and RAU-30 w/ Battle Ace, Daimakaimura and Aldynes. Then I had to take it in the ass for shipping from Japan. Consider yourself lucky that this is local.

get it go go gog o gogorthihjoarorigjsotri omg get it.

yes.

Post by: Deletion on January 23, 2012, 05:40:47 PM: I'd take that deal in a heartbeat and then inquire about other retro goodies he might have stashed away.
Title: Re: Is this a good price on a supergrafx with cd add on?
Post by: Samurai Ghost on January 23, 2012, 06:37:45 PM: Yeah, as others have said, that is a good deal. Plus you'll have the largest video game console ever made. At least I think.
Title: Re: Is this a good price on a supergrafx with cd add on?
Post by: soop on January 23, 2012, 08:24:54 PM: Yeah, that's a deal. Grab it.

Yeah right, now that he's got a hoover it's gonna take at least a week for the frenzy to die down.
I remember I couldn't talk about anything else for about 2 weeks when I got my boxed SCD and Core Grafx II

Post by: ryosnk on January 24, 2012, 01:33:13 AM: My coworker just informed me that he just won an auction and can't proceed to pay it, so if I'm interested I can get it. Here is a pic.

Also, thanks for the welcome Guys and Gals!

Post by: Samurai Ghost on January 24, 2012, 01:35:53 AM: I wonder how many PSPs it would take to equal the volume of a SGX/SCD combo. 29? 34?

Congrats on an awesome deal though!! You'll have a kickass system. Build a custom throne for it complete with a marble pillar!

Post by: soop on January 24, 2012, 01:37:20 AM: I can guarantee you're gonna LOVE Daimakaimura :3

And yeah, welcome to the boards, I can testify that it's the home of THE most knowledgable group of PC Engine freaks on the web! In English anyway...

Post by: PunkicCyborg on January 24, 2012, 03:01:30 AM: Yeah that's a sweet deal dude, boxed super cd roms are pretty expensive by themselves. Hope you pick this one up and enoy it!
Title: Re: Is this a good price on a supergrafx with cd add on?
Post by: fragmare on January 24, 2012, 04:18:16 AM: yea that's the ultimate PCE setup at a great price. now all you need is an arcade card and a converter so you can play US hucards, if you so choose. :)
Title: Re: Is this a good price on a supergrafx with cd add on?
Post by: SuperDeadite on January 24, 2012, 04:25:00 AM: Only negative is you can't play PCE LaserDisk games on that thing. Somebody make me an SGX-PAC NOW!

I think the beefcase with RAU30 + SuparGerfx is better, but thats just me.

It feels more high tech, with the cable dangling across.

Post by: ryosnk on January 28, 2012, 06:34:08 AM: Argh!!!!!!! I paid within 5 days of the auction my coworker won and the seller cancelled because he said I was late and doesn't care if he goes to a case but won't sell it to my coworker because he sold it already. Bullshit!!! I hate people like this.
