Jealous of your haul dunpeal, I would kill to find someone just selling Super Air Zonk, Bonk 3, Raiden, and Syd Mead's Terraforming for $140, let alone the whole lot!

Thanks! To be honest, I was ready to buy the system for that price, no matter the games. I couldn't believe the rare stuff he had.

I actually did not even know a lot of those were so highly sought after. I had never even heard of Syd Mead's Terraforming.

Trying to savor these games by only playing a few at a time, and I am having a hell of a time deciding where to start. Ys 1 & 2 is a game I have wanted to play for a long time, tempting to start there, but then again, maybe I should save the best for last?

Vasteel is the game I am most curious about. No idea how it plays, but the map/poster thing and manual alone have drawn me in. Same with Beyond Shadowgate, never heard of that one, but it looks interesting.

Hateshinai, that is an AWESOME find. i'm not sure how the value translates (not the exchange rate, but the value of PAL xbox vs US xbox) but that's a STEAL. there are at least 40 good games there so you did very, very well for yourself. congrats.

Found a neat place in the Melbourne Square Mall (Florida) called Gorilla Games that had a nice little retro section. Picked up two Dreamcast games: Soul Calibur for $13.95 and the Japanese version of Fatal Fury Mark of the Wolves for $37.99. Both are in mint condition. :)

WAIT A MINUTE! You got Beyond Shadowgate too!?!?!? You lucky bastard! It's the sequel to Shadowgate which, if you haven't played, you should.

Supposedly Terraforming is not that great, so if you're not interested in collecting, it'd be a good one to off-load. I call dibs! :P
