teh "what did you buy today"-thread

[Medic_wheat]

Nice!  I have been keeping an eye out for a copy of Gargoyles for a long time but have yet to find a copy locally.

It is one of those things I bought on line a year or two back because I never found it then the weekend after I bought it I found it locally loose.  Lol.

So here is some stuff. 





This is a game I have been very interested to see if it is worth it. Or would have been best to get the Genesis versions. Will have to play and find out.





A few loose SEGA cd. Can't beat the cheap prices and now I can just print covers for them.



FINALLY snagged one for under $60. Just needed to wait young grass hopper.


Or you know someone could find it for $3 and send it my way.

I found one for $7 a few months ago. It gave me faith in thrifting again.

^^Take the ad's advice and invest in a back-up RAM cart for the Sega CD. Shining Force is a memory hog I hear.

I second Matti on Ranma.  Best digital manga game IMO .. Though I haven't tried out the Cobra series.  Graphics is amazing as are the full speech for a regular CD game.

As for psychic storm... I didnt love it as much..  I thought the side scrolling action pace was too slow..  Like Sinistron slow...  And I didn't like sinistron as well.. 

Got these this week.  I HIGHLY recommend Psychic Storm. Awesome shewty!!

Ranma1/2 is hilarious even if you don't speak Japanese, which I don't.

Yeah, you need to the backup RAM card to keep your saves and access all the scenarios for SF CD.

PCB I've been after for years now!


Also got this cool stick in a random CL deal. Dude came to buy something, saw my games and was like "do you want this joystick I've had in my car for months" so I just traded him for it
With the right adapters I can use this for my X6800 and Pc Engine!!

Won this one today!  Played a bit of it a long time ago and I remember the soundtrack and gameplay was really good.

Ha, I was gonna shoot for that one until it went up too high, so I just bought this one for about $1.50-$2 less.

I actually liked Victory Road. Tough as balls. I mostly played the NES version. Still tough as balls. But it had a wonderful atmosphere, character design, and I never came close to beating it legitimately. I got pretty far, all things considered, but...wow, my butt was always handed to me at some point.

I kept looking for a BIN of it but I couldn't find any.  I was going to shoot for a PCE one but it does require some reading.

Hah victory road, Ikari in SPACE. The first one I'm not sure how it is regarded as a classic, but the second one really is quarter munching bullshit from start to finish. Never understood the first portion of the beggining's voice sample, if I remember correctly the last half was something like "you can't escape come get me if you can", no idea what it's being said other than that.
