Actually in this case that's not the issue.  The data is still there and the game does boot.  The issue is that this game was not properly cared for, and the disks are covered with mold making the disks unreadable.

Sadly the original cotton disks are dead, but it's a still a pretty package.  Scorpius is the real score here hard as hell to find, one of the rarest on the system.


Damn magnetic media.

get a consolized MVS and you can still play the way they were meant to be played

But the AES is so sexy!

That consolized stuff is contrary to how I am wired so it is a no to that. But this whole talk did net me knowledge about the a certain expensive MVS to AES converter though. Looks like I might realistically be able to get me a mint boxed NEO GEO AES + the MVS Coverter II (because the new one comes in the ugliest blue I have ever seen) and the entire Slug Series in AES form + Shockboxes + nice covers for little over a grand.

I think my next goal is set.

Wow did I get a surprise today!!


This package came in from Dlite, and he added that Neo Geo Pocket to it, along with some games.  Never seen one of these except in pictures, so I am excited to get it.  This set basically completes my USA game set for the Turbo.  I say complete meaning, what I want.  Still have quite a few pc engine games I'd like to get in time.  Anyway, I am off to fire this handheld up.  Gotta see what it looks like!
