I thought I got robotech for the gamecube once, but when I brought it home and opened the bag, the case was empty...no game.
Need the case/manual/inserts?

I do need a spare GC case for a loose disc I have.  Pm me if you'd like :)

NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

Found this guy via the bay.  Lives a 1/4 mile away.  He had this collection, and didn't know much about it.  I offered him 500 for it a while back and we worked it out.  Bought this all sight unseen. :)  with a whim and a prayer about exactly what it contained.  little did I know how good condition this stuff was in and how complete.  I even got the map for YS 1 and 2!

Finally got my hands on that MV-IC board and cables I've been after for my Neo cab. Missing the wire for the headphone jacks, but I'm not worried about it as I didn't plan on using headphones with my cab anyway. Can finally save my games when the wife pulls me away mid-game to do something else! :dance:

Nevermind, seems the card slot pins are all bent to hell. It's being returned. :(

I got a pimp CD tower that is velvet covered on the inside.  I got it for $13 from s thrift store and I figured due to the velvet it won't scratch my Turbo games going in and out. It looks like it will hold roughly 120 games.

  Totally awesome find today at the Half-Price Books near my house.  I always check the video games and thought "nice, they got a few non-sports SNES games!" and after flipping through Battle Clash and Metal Combat, I believe I said this out loud after seeing Aero Fighters: "no f*cking way."  I honestly did a double take.  SNES Aero Fighters for 5.99.  This game sells for ridiculous amounts on eBay, and what's funny is they had this sitting out on the shelf and then right above, Yoshi's Safari for $30 locked in the case.  Also picked up Battle Clash and Metal Combat too for 5 each.  Great day! :D

Went to local computer shop and I somehow managed to find an Apple Pippin controller (!) for only $3. I have no intention of getting a Pippin so I figured someone on ASSemblergames might be interested.

it makes me laugh because people are like I REMEMBER PLAYIN THAT BACK IN THE DAY, MAN THAT WAS FUN.

and then I go "yeah I remember playing that 2 days ago because I still have my SNES, retard"

Awesome!

Aero Fighters is a great game!  Play it, don't flip it!
