Title: [WTB] Looking for a couple of TG16 games
Post by: Samuray on September 28, 2015, 03:35:37 AM
Hey guys,

so I recently missed out on a couple of TurboGrafx games, and since most of them seemed to be rather common, maybe I have a chance to find them again.
Looking for games in their cases but no outside cardboard boxes....don't really need those, the standard plastic cases would do just fine.


WTB:


Yo Bro!
Bravoman
Tiger Road
Victory Run
Boxy Boy
Devil Crash
Neutopia
Cadash
Keith Courage
Military Madness
It Came From the Desert
Somer Assault
Deep Blue
Time Cruise
Final Zone 2


If you have any let me know how much you"d want for them, and if you'd be willing to ship to Germany.
I had only one or two deals on here but I have positive feedback on other boards and on eBay so talk to me for details on that.

Thank you!
Samuray

Added "It Came From the Desert" since I missed the copy in the other sale thread, together with a ton of other games. :(

Well, always a chance someone here may have a game or two of my Want List, right?

Oh, and I added "Deep Blue" since I didn't get the other copy I mentioned in my initial posting after all.

Victory Run and Keith Courage you can find for $10 each on ebay. Most sellers will ship to Germany.

Sure, but for those low-priced titles it would be best to find someone who can sell me a couple of those....otherwise shipping would be more expensive than the game. :)

And I like buying from forum members a lot more than from eBay in general, so there's that. Anyway, it does seem like no one is willing to part with any of these games. Hmm. Well, I won't give up yet.  :dance:

If you want a copy of Kieth Courage to play, I've got extras and can just send you one with manual sans case.

Seriously? That would be awesome! I'll PM you!

also keep in mind to find out if USA games are playable on Pal Systems since you are in Germany. Unless you have a US system.

Thanks for the pointer! However, I have a Turbo Duo with US/JP capability, and I THINK there never were any real PAL systems anyway. May be mistaken though.

You are mistaken.  :P

PAL Turbobs exist, but there's no mystery about whether or not they play US hueys.  They do.

I thought PAL systems were an urban legend and that it was simply US consoles that were sold over here. Not that I cared back then....I don't think I was even aware of official systems in Europe. :)  Just bought that US Duo but was soon distracted by PSX and Saturn....unforgivable, I know, but I am making amends as you can see.  :D
And yes, I was late to the party, so to say, getting my Duo late in the life of SNES and Mega Drive.

"Yo Bro!" added. How could I forget about that?!  :D

And I need to emphasize that I really don't need those outer cardboard boxes....would rather just have a lower price.

Thank you!  :dance:

Not many people seem to be selling TG16 games these days....well, at least not any of those I listed above. Well, I'll keep trying for a bit longer.
And I added "Time Cruise".

Thanks for reading! :)

PAL turd-bobs are ugly as Nullys mom, and should all be sacrificed to fix non-working real Turbobs [emoji16]


Edit: Necro is correct, no mystery, PAL turd-bobs take all insertions, just like Nullys mom [emoji13]

don't you hate it when your want list keeps getting bigger over time rather than smaller? :lol:

Well, you certainly did your part to help out....thanks again for that "Keith Courage" copy! It finally moved into its new "home" yesterday (a modified jewel case with printed front and back covers) and I even had a spare HuCard sleeve!

But you're right, I would be REALLY happy if I got a PM from someone offering me one or two of the titles from my list. On the other hand, my JP want list is about to be greatly reduced, so there's that. :)

I was finally able to strike off "Devil Crash".
Still hoping for someone to contact me with a couple of the other titles to sell. Come on! :)
