Just got PCE Exile and Exile II.

Anyone else notice how broken the numbering is on this series? The PCE label for Exile 1 is labelled XZR1 (it's actually XZR2, XZR1 was not released for the PCE) and Exile 2 (WP in the US) is labelled XZR2, but XZR2 was actually Exile 1.

Ha! I forgot about that.

One needs look no further than Final Fantasy.

Interestingly, they didn't do this with "Valis II" and "Final Zone II" ... I always wondered about the earlier PCE games (I assumed they must have been on the PCE).

Samurai Ghost, does this work? the angle of the SGX looks a bit off, but this is awesome, regardless.

[Samurai Ghost]

Definitely does not work but could possibly if some crazy adapter was made. 

[Opethian]

its called an RAU-30

An adapter for connecting a SGX to a briefcase.

Sweet pick up.  Those blue ice scrapers are uber RARE! 

I paid $1500 for the scraper.  I am done with the Cheap $200 dollar ones...

My job here is complete...

The funny part is the stuff came in an old box, "Bob's Turbo Graphics"

I wonder if "Zach" is like the Dell guy, who got busted with drugs after his commercials.... can we find that guy and see what he is up to?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Curtis_%28actor%29

Yes, that is a link to Ben Curtis's Wikipedia page, whom we know has an addiction problem.  However, the young man in question is the guy on the Turbo Grafx box.  I would like to know his name, his whereabouts and what he is wearing.

Link was posted to give more insight into the Dell guy himself. A lot of people actually don't remember him or have any idea who that clown was, so your brief mentioning of him may hold no meaning for some. Same as if out of no where I made a comparison to the Rallys cha ching guy. A lot of people don't remember him, and most seem to not realize it was Seth Green. As for your Turbografx kid, odds are no one will ever know who he is. Its not worth pondering over.

Bought me a NES Control Deck today!  Picked it up from Weirdguy on the CGCC forums.  Clean unit, with 2 controllers, original paperwork, original hook-ups and near mint box/packaging.  $50!  I'm super stoked as I've been looking for a NES for a few months now.  I've found at least 3 units before, but they were all in the USA and shipping to Canada always put them over $60 (US Dollars).  $50 CAD was my limit so the price was perfect.  Pics to come!!!

[storino03]

did it come with game and light gun or was that a different packaging?

[storino03]

So my $30 Final Fantasy XIII-2 Collector's Edition came in (Xbox 360), but it arrived with the plastic torn, so back it goes! If you aren't a sealed game collector, you wouldn't understand the fixation. It's amazon's fault for not using proper shipping packaging. The replacement is being overnight shipped--should arrive tomorrow!

[storino03]

Not every single game, just certain ones, and only current-gen for the most part.
