help...
and tomorrow never dies(ps1) case & manual (extra)waflerevolution

nice! my sister just throws old games in trash. waflerevolution

There are some really desirable games and upgrade parts in that list, John, nicely done! I'm still trying to find a local copy of MvC 2 on XBox, and JoJo's has quickly become tough to find. I am definitely interested in the Suikoden II manual; if I had another Chrono Trigger manual, It'd be yours.

Got a 32X system with Virtua Racing Deluxe, Motocross Challenge, Doom, Tempo and Star Wars: The Arcade Game for $32 CDN shipped.bretthorror

Star Wars Arcade is good on 32X.gmsnpr

Wow, I just saw some screenshots of this game on MobyGames.  It looks freaking amazing; I really want to play this game big-time.  I love the old Star Wars wire frame arcade game; the yoke controller felt so wicked-awesome to use; like I was really piloting an X-Wing. 

The cockpit image looks remarkably similar (but clearly different) to the X-Wing PC sim. 

(Funny thing I noticed while typing this title into the MobyGames search: you can type it all with just your left hand; like "stewardess".)

What you're spouting sounds like uneducated drivel. Have a look at some of the Saturn and PS1 comparisons on this site before you dog out the the Saturn relative to the competition. gmsnpr

Well from the games I've played (essentially the ones I own), the graphics aren't very good and get nauseous. I've played very little PS1, so I am unsure of how the graphics of it are. Maybe the games I have are incredibly subpar. I'm not much of a graphics person, I just don't like when it gives me a headache. This is what I have for Saturn:

Mystaria (hate this crap, so I can't comment on it much)
NHL All-Star Hockey
Virtua Fighter 2
Slam N' Jam '96
Battle Arena Toshinden
Fighting Vipers

Doom and Motocross Championship look pretty bad on the 32X.

I got a Saturn cheap when I was a kid and got only the games I could find locally for it.

I took a delivery today of:

Dolphin Blue on the Atomiswave. It doesn't include any artwork or the user's manual, but I've already printed an insert for a shockbox. The game is akin to Metal Slug, with some sections where you fight on dolphin back. The cart cost me $86.66 shipped and is in n. mint condition with a small dent on the underside of the cartridge.

I resoundingly agree.  Thank you so much for the vid link aspro, that was definately worth my time to watch. 

2.5D games are the best.

Some good pickups. I can't usually bring myself to buy pre-8-bit stuff any more (unless it's complete) since I never play the games I already have, but that's my own indiosyncracy.

Heh... they made sure to mention that the paddles were clean and not jittery.

Am I bad for eyeballing a Neo Geo Pocket Color with 24 games even if I don't know what games come with it?
