teh "what did you buy today"-thread

[JapanTokei]

so fellas I'm here one more day at sapporo (I head off to the aiport at 4pm tomorrow JP time)..  in case some of you are dying for rare/desired titles, i saw a few today at the shop I found.  not bad at all - not cheap, but no where near ripoff prices.  if you're willing to cover the RT trainfare (920 yen) I would be happy to pick them up for you and mail it at the Tokyo post office before i head back to Singapore on Wed night. 

- Downtown Nekketsu (river city ransom) - 8800 yen (no spine). <-- not cheap but this rarely pops up.
- Mizu Kids (Liquid Kids) - 4800 yen   <-- I think this is a pretty fair price actually!  not sure why I didn't get it for myself... i'm not a huge platform fan I guess..
- Terraforming (no spine) - 4000 yen <--  avg price I think.  saw a complete with spine one listed on Ebay for $79.99. (~6150 yen equiv).
- one more minty Strider left (with spine) - 4500yen <-- price is pretty good.  I picked mine up for the same.

anyway, if any of you want these, gift-paypal me today your time.  I will check back noon mytime and head there if the case.  please add the train fare to the game price and postage.  I;m not sure how much WW economy JP media mail costs but I'm guessing since all these JP game guys on Ebay lists $6 USD, that should cover it. 

yen exchange rate = 77 yen to $1 USD btw.   send to satosu22mori@gmail.com

and back to PCE topics.

happy to announce I find some goodies today in Sapporo!  must of these are dups I already have, so they'll end up as Fodder for trade/sale soon after I sort them out.  all are in super minty condition.  I love the MEgadrive Batman packaging from Sunsoft... sweet game.  I think they were trying to make the PCE version based off the same platform idea (at least it seemed so in the magazines back in the days), before they succesffuly cahnged it into the awesome maze format we all now love.

Heck yeah Elemental Gearbolt!

What the heck is that! I have never seen that game before.

[BlueBMW]

Its a light gun rail shooter / RPG by Working Designs... a really unique game IMO!

[Opethian]

if you get the light gun check out Project Horned Owl! lol

my recent pick ups

Bare Knuckle 3 is so badass! Just played through it last night before bed.

[munchiaz]

^ yeah i played through it to, and got the bad ending. it was my first time beating it. I have played it a few times in the past, but never all the way through. I have played and beaten streets of rage 2 so many times i've lost count. SOR 2 is still a better game IMO, the music is just so well done in SOR2

Elemental Gearbolt is very enjoyable with the Guncon. The music, graphics and feel of the game is great. I was able to get it mint for around $25 roughly 4 years ago on Ebay. I highly suggest adding this game to you PS1 collection. Project Horned Owl is also pretty fun. I have always liked the accuracy of the Guncon. The thing seems like it is 20x more accurate than a Genesis Justifier.

The only annoying thing about the Guncon is that the red button on the front keeps you from enjoying games like Time Crisis one-handed. I think you can find a pedal adapter that connects between the port for the controller input to simulate the red button on the front of the gun.
