very cool. Last catalog I remember getting with this stuff was a jcpenney catalog with Neo geo pocket color among others in it. I would never have heard of that little system without that catalog. Wanted one ever since then (1999?) got on back in 07.

Lol! I wasn't even alive when most of these were printed (alas that I was born in 1990), but I just love looking at old stuff like this. Thanks for sharing these scans. :D

I used to drool over the JC Penny catalog, but not the video games.
