teh "what did you buy today"-thread

Not a bad price.  TE's seem to be hovering around $100 w/o the tuner.  The TG-16 seems to hover in the $40-$50 range.  So you got everything at a decent price considering the couple hu cards, and tuner that are shown.  Nice pick-up.  I would've bought it.

One. One measly PCE game, clearly my Obey is not strong enough. On the other hand, now I too can have a go at Xanadu

Is Gun Griffon 2 any good?  I played a bit of the first one on emulation the other day, it was pretty solid.

I can let you know once I've tried it, if you'd like First game feels solid, but has a quite steep difficulty curve (there's a mission I can't complete, because my forces gets annihilated and some scary mechs totally punishes me for not having a good enough grip on the controls).

Bought this the other day and it finally arrived.  Here's the thing, I didn't know it was sealed.  I just thought it was CIB.  So now I have a sealed copy of Neutopia II.  My choices are trade it, or bust the cherry on this thing.  If I bust the cherry I still don't need the box (so check my trading post thread).  I think it might be best to try and do a trade for something I need though.

Decisions, decisions...  



[EDIT] Looking at this again, I don't know if this is an original seal.  Seems kind of fishy.

Bought a few things lately, but figured I would post this one.  Gonna give it a try soon as I beat MSR.

Tear it up like a virgin on prom night!

It's hard to tell if the white on the edges is a reflection or box wear, but it's definitely a reseal if it's damage to the box.

I played the sega-cd version up until the tree boss, then I played something else

lol, how come?

PCE version of Popful Mail is more like the PC-88 version. The game is a bit different from the sega cd version. The game is supposed to benefit from running off the Arcade card but I cant tell if the game loads any faster or not

Ze Popful is my best girl, and what a pretty sight she is today with that spine card as well.

Hope you enjoy the game Bernie!

I think it just loads less often, using the AC to load the cinemas in one chunk instead of reloading part way through, buffer towns, etc.

When I play it, I will be certain to use the Arcade Card.

Tore it open.  The virgin is no more!  Definitely a reseal... so I guess I took it's second virginity?  hu card is in excellent shape, manual is good.  The plastic tray inside the box is fantastic.  I've never seen one so perfect before.  Box is pretty good too.  The box will be going up in my trading post thread.
