Very nice!

I read about a simple mod gluing four nuts inside that Atari knob to give it the heavy momentum spin feel.

Shining Force + Sonic Spinball together for $7.
Not a super deal, but I think shining force is worth about 15 or so (sonic spinball I couldn't really care less about, but it was a bundle). I haven't played this game in years, so I'm pumped to start them from the beginning. I have all the saturn iterations, but I need to buy #2 and the ghastly expense sega cd version.

Awesome! I love that game. See if you can find some one to play it with, co-op can be beneficial or annoying. Either way it's fun. (You need a second player to get some unlockables, but if the second player isn't as good as you are it brings you down).

What a haul.

Post by Upsidedown Fuji »

I decided to drive over to a couple cities over and check out their Hard Offs and other game stores. I lucked out. Please forgive me for my crappy shots. I used my cellphone's 5.2 MP camera in HD mode.

Image

I picked up an unopened copy of Chrono Trigger SNES J, Virtua Racing Saturn, and a Dream Eye for Sega Dreamcast. I rarely find sealed stuff at Hard Off, but I really lucked out good this time.

The Dream Eye was never opened and the batteries inside the packaging exploded from being 10 years old. Every thing else inside was just fine and still sealed. Even the box wasn't faded or dinged up. An incredible find.

I also picked up a copy of VOOT for Dreamcast, a PS1 memory card, and Fire Pro Wrestling 6 men scramble for Saturn.

Image

All in all it was a great haul and I only spent less than 1000 yen for the lot!
Image

I may end up ebaying the dream eye and Chrono Trigger as they seem to be worth some money to the right people and I really don't need or want either of them. I do admit that Chrono Trigger box art looks pretty slick though. Usually I find loose carts or bent out of shape, faded boxes.

Not the find of the century but I didn't have it before and I found it at 2nd hand store for four bucks. I'm pretty sure its never been opened before, and its in mint condition.
