Not pressuring you to do it or anything, but I think paying it forward would be a great idea! See how many time we could pull this off before someone stops... that would be VERY interesting!Scooter wrote:I kinda wish I'd seen the video first! This is so cool. I do have lots of games, but this is not one I have and have been wanting. I'll be sure to post a responding video of me playing the game once it arrives.
I have an NTSC console, will I be able to play the game on my console? A previous owner "modified" the cart recepticle to eliminated the bumps that prevent non-US carts from being inserted, is that all that has to be done to play imports?
This is such a cool deal, thanks a ton.
This may just turn into a "pay it forward" kind of deal. Let's see what I could pass on.....

Re: Who wants a GoldenEye?
thanx all for participating, I am glad all of you are excited although there is only 1 winner.
I can't find an NTSC-U on it, but it says for sale only in USA, Canada, Mexico, and Latin America.
I forgot to mention the region, I never looked, everything is imported here so I took it for granted that this is NTSC-U.
Send me your shipping address on pm.
Plus any one give me an idea on how to pack this?
because under bubble wrap it won't stay in mint condition, its cardboard.

Ack,
wats a boot cartridge? I got a converter (pal->NTSC) but it doesn't work, I just slide in the cartridges. Am I doing something wrong?

Find a sturdy box that's at least 1 inch (2 cm) bigger in each dimension so there will be at least 1/2 inch (1 cm) around each side. Wrap loosely in bubble wrap to cover all sides, then tape it up and it should be fine as long as it doesn't get drop kicked along the way.kingmohd84 wrote: Plus any one give me an idea on how to pack this?

I've had good luck with emptying the box, opening both flaps and flattening it and placing the cart on top of the flattened box and shipping it like that in a large envelope. Better off, put it in a larger box with bubble wrap or wadded up newspapers for stuffing around it. The US postal system has great boxes the right size for shipping a VHS tape which work great, don't know if you have anything similar available there.
BTW, where are you located? LOL!
Ow! My small intestine!

Actually, if you google search Bahrain, the first thing that shows up is a google map of the beautiful island.kingmohd84 wrote:i am half way around the world in a tiny island called Bahrain, you can't even locate it on the map
Looks absolutely gorgeous.

Re: Who wants a GoldenEye?
Boot cartridges usually have to be plugged into the back or somewhere onto the converter. It helps the converter fool the machine into thinking the game it's about to play is from a different region.kingmohd84 wrote:Ack,

Re: Who wants a GoldenEye?
btw, any one can help.
What can I use as a box that is slightly larger than an N64 game box to ship the game in?
