It's exactly the same for me.

I'll probably be leaving Japan later this year, so if you want to take the reigns then... you might not have much competition on this site.

Great collection Breetai I'm very jealous. Just curious how often do you see PC FX systems in the wild? I've been thinking of acquiring one for quite some time and just wanted to know if they are really hard to come by over there.

It's not too hard to find them. PM me if you want and I can probably get you one. I've sold a couple already, but haven't bothered to keep one for myself. For some reason, one of the shops near me has a bunch of copies of Pia Carrot... :roll:

Thanks for the reply man. I need to buy books for school since the semester just started so hopefully they don't take too much of my money away :( and if they don't I'll defiantly shoot you a PM about acquiring one. Roughly how much do you think one would cost with shipping to the U.S? Thanks

Don't worry Breetai, I'm not looking to start any competition. Just thought it would be something nice to have on the side and also to help rescue neglected games. :D We can't save them all by ourselves. I want to move back to the US too but I probably won't be able to for another year or two. Might as well live it up while I can. :)

With EMS shipping, between $100-250; depending.

Awesome collection!

Whenever I see a collection photo like this in the forums, the next thing I check is the member's location. Inevitably, 90% of the time it reads "Japan" and I say to myself "Well of course, they'd HAVE to be to have all that." :lol: Well, that, or a avid ebay user.

Well, my SG-1000 and Mark III are basically sold and shipping out soon. I will miss them... :cry: I'm planning to replace them with a US Master System later on. I also have a Mega CD for the Mega Drive in the picture, but they are also for sale. I have a US Genesis/Sega CD already, so no worries there. That white Wonderswan has been sold and I replaced it with a blue on. That white Saturn is long gone as well. As for everything else, it's all sitting safely in my parent's basement back in Canada. Happily, I do have a few other things here that will join them later this year. :)

I really did want to keep the SG-1000 and Mark III, but for what I paid for them, and considering that they can easily be replaced with a Master System (except for Flicky...) ... it just made more sense to sell them.
