It took me about five years to find a complete one for a decent price  :-".
PS: I think it's one of the Top 10 Famicom titles and worth the search/price.

I am assuming that is the cartridge version? I have a complete FDS copy. Are they basically identical in-game?

A few pickups.  Went on a Playstation 1 back in high school nostalgia trip....  Horrible pic quality.

If its not visible enough.  Gigawing PCB (batt converted to keystone holder, changed in 09, new batt on the way though)  Jet moto 1-3 and Cool Boarders 2-4

Yes it's the cartridge version. As far as I know there are few minor (graphical) changes/fixes and the sound was changed to fit a cart but apart from that it's the same game. The major difference is that you can get the FCD version WAY cheaper/easier  (but I don't have a FCD because this system tend to fail a lot  ).


@BlueBMW
Nice Gigawing

Got these for my birthday
Akira graphic novels 1-3

I watched the movie again the other night, fantastic :-) I may try to pick up some of these myself.

16-bit Castlevanias have rarely had prettier backgrounds than Dracula X68k. Fine choice indeed.

...and don't forget to crank the audio and play with the different sound options. You can activate these but holding R1 + L1 + Start + Select at the title screens. Have fun!

Pokemon stadium 2 for the 64.
keeping that train going, plus, I've never actually played the 2nd pokemon stadium, despite loving the minigames in the first one.
(I still have never won a single battle on pokemon stadium, ever. )

today I finally acquired Rainbow Islands!  Did this game have a low print run or something, I don't see it pop up too often...

also I was lucky to find a Super 2 in 1 pirate hucard.  some might think bootlegs are junk, but i'm kind of fascinated by them.

Interesting way to add two of the Bubble Bobble games to your library!

I don't know; it's been expensive forever, but it's been turning up cheaper lately.

Bought back an Astro that I sold a few years ago when I was in a pinch. Needs some TLC, but I love my babies.

The family is coming together!

Team Innocent $0.01 + $8.00 shipping
Battle Heat $1.25 + $5.00 shipping
Not too shabby, would have liked to have cases with inserts, but for the price who could complain?
