What is/are your latest legacy acquasitions?

Meaning what games for older systems have you acquired recently? What hardware (consoles/controllers/etc)?

In the past month (or so) I've gotten LOZ: Oracle of Ages, a Game Boy Advance, Tony Hawk Pro Skater for the PS1, Gauntlet Legends for the N64, GoldenEye, Banjo Kazooie. The funny thing is that I don't yet have an N64 to even play those last three on.

I actually just got super mario 64 I never played it caused I missed out on 5th gen

nothing. i got nothing since may

I used to have Aladdin for the Genesis. It was a fun game as I recall. Perhaps I'll own it again one day.

Yeah, Halo counts.

The Dreamcast is a great system to own. :D

Munch's Oddysee and Counter Strike for the Xbox a few weeks ago, I've always wanted to try them but its a pain trying to get CS to work on my 360.

This.

Lol! I made this thread about a week ago :P. Nonetheless - WWF Warzone for the PS1 :).Ashley_wwe

Admittedly I hadn't seen your thread before posting this. Though to be fair your thread only asks about games people bought recently. I'm asking about what people have acquired.... whether it were bought, traded for, or even just found in a box in your grandmother's attic... and I'm including hardware as well as games.

Since I posted in the other topic last week I have just picked up Dave Mirra BMX 2 on GBA, still sealed for 2.99! Yay.

I have been after a bmx game in good condition for a while,still sealed is a bonus, it will get opend when it arrives!

a GBA(original white)

a dreamcast that may or may not work

and like 5 super nintendo games..

My latest legacy acquisitions are Resident Evil 2, Pilotwings 64, and The World is Not Enough for the N64. I also acquired From Russia With Love, 007 Nightfire, and 007 Agent Under Fire for Gamecube, and I also got Black and some other games for the original XBox.

I got (again) 007 golden eye for my N64

If GBA counts for "legacy" handheld, then I bought Golden Sun for it a few weeks back.

Resident Evil: Code Veronica, Dreamcast version. The Dreamcast version runs smoother then the Ps2 version, and has better graphics as well.

Ninja Gaiden for the original Xbox.

Guilty Gear X for Ps2.

Stretch Panic for Ps2.

I got Onimmusha 2, Outbreak 2 and the Sly Raccoon trilogy for PS2 last week, and i've also been trying to get hold of a copy of vib ribbon for PS1

If original xbox counts then Splinter cell. If not probably the original Banjo, which I rebought about a year ago.

Probably Zelda: Minish Cap...

I think my next purchases will be gamecube related but I also want to pick up a Saturn at some point.

Well I've almost added a Game Gear to my collection.

Xbox does count, since it's not a current system.

Games I acctually got for the first time:

Tekken 2 - PS1

Harry Potter and the Philosopher Stone (I live in Australia) - PS1

Star Wars Episode I - PS1

Games I got back from a mate after I lent them to him over 6 months ago:

Fight Night Round 3 - XBOX

UFC Tapout - XBOX

Need for Speed Underground2 - XBOX

I don't have a SNES or N64 but I did p/u Punch out and Mario 64... I also got the Sonic Collection for my PS3

super puch out (SNES) Ken Griffey JR. baseball (SNES) Nightmare Creatures (N64)

These 3 gems only set me back $13 total B*****s

Well I've almost added a Game Gear to my collection.

I wouldn't really count it since they stopped making games for it only a couple years ago.

My third N64 with 3 controllers and my second SNES. (Most recent)

Metroid Prime (A week ago).

I've recently spent around US$400 on some games :

• Dancing Eyes (ARCADE/NAMCO System 11) : $330
• The Undoukai (ARCADE/TAITO 40-0) : $45
• Mike's Lonely Journey (PC/FM77AV) : $20

I wouldn't really count it since they stopped making games for it only a couple years ago.

Well they were still releasing commercial titles for the Dreamcast within the last year. I know of one company that sells new games for the Colecovision!

Anyhoo... Xbox was officially discontinued in 2006. Personally I think that's long enough to consider it a proper legacy system.

Just picked up Beyond Good & Evil for the GameCube. (along with the DS remake of Front Mission)

i just rebought MArio KArt Double Dash,

Banjo-Kazooie, Wave Race and a yellow N64 controller.

Edit: N64 Expansion Pak

I got a dreamcast for 15$! No controller though, so I'm going to the store later to get one.

A Dreamcast with 2 games, 3 controllers and cables. All for 25 dollars.

Just today I picked up a Colecovision expansion module #1 for $5. I also got Panzer Dragoon for $5, and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake eater and Castlevania: Curse of Darkness for $3 a piece. It was a good day today.

I don't have it yet, but if the seller keeps to his word, I should be getting a Neo-Geo CD with two gamepads and an AC adapter within a week. Cost me a hefty $100 shipped, though, and that's supposedly a GOOD deal for the system with the two gamepads factored in.NamelessPlayer

The other day I picked up Xenosaga III and Pikmin. I have quite a number of older titles to pick up still. I want to continue building up my PS2 and Gamecube collection for sure.

Yeah, I had a Neo Geo CD-Z system quite a few years back and even with the slightly faster CD-ROM I was looking at 45+ seconds between -ROUNDS- in KOF. I eventually compared it side by side to the Saturn ports of the same fighting titles and determined that the port was close enough for me to be happy (the Saturn port loaded in more like 5 seconds).

As for the rarest items I have in my collection, I have the Broadband adapter for the Dreamcast, had until recently a Doctor64 (dev kit CD-ROM drive for the N64) and Panzer Dragoon Saga for Saturn (extremely rare Panzer Dragoon RPG title).

I knew going in that the NGCD was infamous for load times. The PS1 and Saturn load times frankly didn't bother me that much. Didn't seem like it could get as bad as the PSP... ...and then I read comments like yours. 45+ seconds between rounds in a FIGHTING GAME? Were their loading routines unoptimized or something? Guess I'll find out for myself soon enough. (And this is a top-loader, so the load times will probably be a tad slower than they already are.) I definitely know that I'm going to be comparing it to my Saturn, especially since I have an Action Replay 4M Plus for RAM expansion and the two platforms have a lot of library overlap.NamelessPlayer

Yeah, expect over 1 minute load times depending on the title. KOF is an exteme example because unlike other fighters it has to load a new fighter between rounds, but still. The NeoGeo CD titles also had additional content the AES carts lacked since they used the extra capacity of the CD to load in bonuses, but the Saturn ports of Neo Geo titles often had the same content (i.e. concept artwork in KOF).

I think the KOF title in question was KOF 97, but it's been a while so I'm not 100% sure.

Yeah, the PSP could be pretty bad too. Midnight Club for the PSP had load times of over 1 minute. The only reason I know this is because my PSP was set to dim the screen after 60 seconds of inactivity and it would dim prior to a race starting. :(

-Byshop

Usually all the neo cd version has over the aes is an arranged track, using higher quality audio. Not really worth the trade off, but the fact that the kofs cost about $20 on CD with load times, compared to hundreds for AES carts with no load times, IS a good trade off for some.

Kof is indeed an extreme example though. When you start getting into non fighting games where game time is longer between levels it's not too bad. Think of it as time to use the bathroom or get a drink :P.
