Is that Space Harrier for the 32X?

I didn't realize that was the size of its library.

Did Sega ever release a 32X/Genesis/CD combo?


Space Harrier - yes, great port.

Combo = no

But you can make your own (at least the Gen/32x part):

There are also really only like 35 unique 32X titles, I just managed to wind up with a ton of duplicates through lot purchases near the end of my collecting.  But enough derailment!

Do I see three boxed copies of Deion Sanders? Way too significant! ;)

Sega had a genesis/32x combo unit codenamed "Neptune" in the prototype stages but it mercifully got killed off with the Saturn launch. Would have been the dumbest idea ever.

If they thought that idea up I'm sure a Genny/32x/CD combo couldn't have been far from their minds.

  I have a box of Garbage Pail Kids that I've kept from my childhood.  Are these worth anything nowadays?  I have the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th series all complete.  Iirc they kind of started being not as cool after the 6th series, around the time the horrible GPK movie came out.

I collect the last remaining shreds of credibility from pcenginefx forum members. THIS THREAD HAS BEEN A GOLDMINE.

I lost all my credibility years ago, you see. I'm just waiting for others to sink into the sludge with me. It's been lonely down here.


BACK ON TOPIC: I have XaviX and love Jackie Chan's game + mat. I have boxing game with gloves, too. It doesn't have ninjas assaulting joggers, so it isn't as awesome.

ALSO, my wife punched me for presenting XaviX as a "grand gift" many holidays ago. Apparently, I had led her to believe she would be pleased with this particular gift. .

I've got a massive collection of dead compact fluorescent lights and batteries, two obsolete laptops (Pentium II 266 MHz and Pentium M) and two desktops (Celeron and a Pentium 4 2.8 Ghz) and four cellphones (w/chargers) that I've amassed over the years but haven't gotten around to recycling. 

Willing to trade for Necromancer's stack of Playboys.  Need to replace the stack my g/f now wife made me dump so many years ago.=P

My complete set of TurboGrafx hint books has been a popular conversation topic at dinner parties:

E-waste - niiiiice! I put a 2.8 P4 in my buddy's aging desktop last year and it's still surprising good.

Classic graphics cards for Pc. Stuff ranging from 3DFX Voodoo 2, Voodoo 5500, Geforce 2 Ti to Geforce 4 Ti, TNT 2 Ultra, Rage Fury MAXX, Real3D Starfighter, 3DLabs Permedia 2v, S3 Trio64 and Verge DX,Trident stuff, etc. Also have a wide range of K6 to K6-2 stuff including a K6-2+ and K6-3 cpu and a nice batch of SS7 motherboards. Obviously have more stuff then this parts wise, but the above is what I tend to go out of my way to get. Should note, while some may not care for the stuff, others would drool. Just varies from person to person.

I don't think I have the bottom two books. Actually, I think I do have the Sega book.

SO THAT LEAVES THE MYSTERIOUS BLACK BOOK--tell me about it! I am intrigued.
