Took delivery of a few things today:
Vertical Force, VBoy, v. fine, cart and pin dust cover, R0, $16.48
PC Engine Super CD-ROM2 attachment, v. fine, loose, R7, $114.50 shipped. Â Now I've got the Supergrafx/Super CD-ROM2 combo, which is pretty slick: all Japanese HuCards, Supergrafx games, and all CD-based PC Engine and Turboagrafx games playable on one deck. Â If it also played NA HuCards and LD-Rom2s, it'd be perfect, but it doesn't.

Some of the pawn shops around here price 360 games $8-$15, and that was the price on those two. Â Other shops would have had them for $20-25, but they don't get my business.

all the shops around here over-price too... but I did find a local game store thats' number one goal is to under cut gamestop's prices and over-cut their trade ins.
I uhhh... re-bought 3D Dot Game Heroes for about $18 and returned the one I bought for 26... fixed that.
I also bought today -
DJ Hero 2 turntable bundle - 360 - $10 - new
Rondo of Swords - DS - near mint & complete - $8 (slight upgrade)
Armed & Dangerous - XB - mint & complete - $5
new GH5 controller - $10ish
This is not exactly a new aquisition, but I just finished designing and building a two foot deep six foot tall cabinet on wheels for all of my consoles plus my HTPC and a flat sceen 27" SDTV (expandable to 32"). It is a totally enclosed cabinet with one hole in the back to let out just enough wires for power and a connection to the HDTV and Surround Sound Tuner. I'm pretty happy with the results, and as a friend has already called it the Cabinet of Awesome I'm sticking with that.
Â
Â
First of all... Sheath, posts like that make me wish that the forums had a "Like" button. Very nice. Secondly in news that will suprise nobody I went out and bought a bunch of garbage at a swap meet. It was great seeing common stuff sell for inflated prices while the junk that I wanted was dirt cheap.Most are cart only unless otherwise noted.
1942 (NES) - $3 -Â Why was this not in my collection before? Shame on me.First of all... Sheath, posts like that make me wish that the forums had a "Like" button. Very nice.Â

Thanks! That thing took basically the last five years to think up and settle on how many consoles I actually wanted on there. The Jaguar was my most recent acquisition. I'm still shocked at how incredibly expensive the games are. But once I realized I could enclose an SDTV in the cabinet I was gung ho for finishing the design and building it. We built it last week in over 100 degree temperatures, man am I glad it is finished.

I can't wait for the revival of the KuF series anymore... 3 years of lies is enough... I chose to replay the less awesome games again... which meant I need to buy them again... I paid less for them this time than I did the first time...
