Nice. I'd very much like to pick up a jaguar CD at some point, if I can get a good deal on one. I've had a jaguar in my closet for about 10 years with no games or controllers and it needs some love. With no flash cart easily available, the Jaguar CD is the only reasonable way to get homebrew going on the Jag.

lost_within, if you have an extra controller and game that doesn't suck I may buy it off of you. PM me.

To be considered CIB they also came with a box. Only the Myst game I have the box. The rest I have the digi pack case.
I have PC and PS1 Myst. On the Jaguar Myst you own, how does it compare to these other versions graphically?

Yeah that sounds quite high.
I got my boxed Jag with two controllers together with the CD attachment and games (incl amongst others-Alien v Predator and Atari Karts) + a boxed memory cart and a Jag s-video cable, all for under $120.

Just out of curiosity, how hard is it to find a Jaguar CD unit that works? From the AVGN review, you would think it is impossible. Plus the only people I know who like lust after this thing are die hard Highlander fans. Incidentally, is Highlander for the Jag any good?

I found a Jag w/CD a few months at a swap meet for only 8 bux, and honestly it was only worth about that. I quickly sold it on ebay for a nice profit. Definitely not worth owning unless for collectors purposes.

The primary justification for a Jaguar CD is for homebrew, not for the actual games on it (save for maybe Battlemorph, Iron Soldier 2, and Hover Strike: Unconquered Lands). I wouldn't even say THAT justification is very potent, however.

I actually have the Highlander game for the Jag CD, but being testing it to make sure it works haven't gotten around to playing it. I heard there's something involving sex or a naked woman or something in it? Kind of cool to own it for that purpose alone :D....just kidding.

It looks about the same as the PC, definatly better then the Saturn version.
