Way to save me the time :wink:

Yeah, that was the one down Fondren. Good thing they fixed it. :roll: I'm on the west side of town so the Beaumont one is all you. :lol:

Wait, I mean stay the hell away from my loots! :P

Scored this for $60 including shipping. Pretty exciteyd to have this back dinally, as I sold my standard edition copy in hopes of getting this. Considering I sold the standard copy for $65, I'm very happy with this

This game looks fantastic through component imputs on my new perma-TATE CRT

Its a Phillips, not sure on the model.

I came across it at a Hope Chest, and noticed it had component and s-video. 20" seems perfect for a TATE crt, so I figured it was worth the $40

Yea that's a good size. My little toshiba you saw is only 14", but for sitting close with svideo or component connections it looks great.

Yeah that thing put out some sharp picture for sure. Super easy to flip back and forth/transport too.

In like two days my crazy haul should be here, with even more Cave madness. After that I was thinking about taking pictures of all the shmups I've amassed so far. (Although nothing could beat Caseys collection)

Finds today at a local retro store which generally has horrible prices:
Atari Jaguar controller- $10
Jerry Glanville's Pigskin Football (Gen)- $4; no manual, and a bit beaten up label, but has a box with artwork and is a sentimental favorite (also, it was mispriced; should have been $10)

Found this on the local CL for $20. Unfortunately didn't come with its original controller. I'm not sure if I have to do anything special for a power connector as it didn't come with one. Will a regular saturn power cable work?

Oddly the guy didn't say anything about it only being able to play japanese games. I already knew but you'd think some one would say something. :?
