Wow a Panzer Dragoon Saga out in the wild. Too bad he is asking ebay prices for it :(
He's also selling a neo geo with games at eBay prices :?

Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, grab it! Sidescrolling platformer that uses the bongos, definitely unique!
Looks neat, I'll have to check that one out.

I did a zip code search and there were a few stores that had them, kinda far though. Luckily my brother was close to one today and picked me up the bongos! My (brother's) find for today: DK Bongos: $1.99 @ GameStop! Can't beat that price.

I was playing Donkey Konga (1) for a while with my brother. It's kinda lame, actually. Reminds me of Guitar Hero, which I despise. But $4 for the game and $2 for the bongos, I don't feel like I wasted money on it. The game isn't that bad. I'm interested to check out Jungle Beat though, and I think there's another DK bongo game. Some kind of racing game?
Good score on the Bongos, handy having Relatives spread out! :D

There is a Donkey Konga 2 and a Japanese only version of Donkey Konga 3. Donkey Konga 2 has crappy music compared to the first one, but a couple of good mini games.

Silent hill (complete and so clean I'd swear it was new) - $2
MediEvil (in same condition as Silent Hill) - $2
Great Finds! Medievil is one of my favorite PS1 games.

This was factory sealed but because I'm nosey and wanted to try and straighten the box up I opened it.

ebay £5.20 posted.
:shock: Very nice! That is a crazy looking GamePad.
I see a Slow button on the top, I guess that would flash the Saturn Start button as a pause signal? What are the other slide switches, AutoFire intensities for each button and trigger?

Oh and if anyone Googles this, be sure to include Sega in the Saturn Voyager search. :lol:

I could never get into the bongos. Just felt really cheap and boring to me. I got both pairs that I had for $2 each at GS, but ended up selling them at a yard sale over the Summer. They're just not worth the cost of shipping.

The Mod in me is thinking of converting one for all the rapid "Wiggle Joystick" sports games. Imagine the look if someone actually played a game this way. :lol:

It's got 2 slow settings, yes the slider buttons are for auto/turbo/off.
Here's a better pic..

Also the back of the pad is rather odd, it seems to have a compartment in it, it's too stiff for me to slide it open so i'll leave it alone.
Looking at the shape of the back I think it's made to be connected to the end of a controller arm on a retail game pod 8)
What d'ya reckon?

The following Youtube review convinced me to track it down.


I've edited the original post to include the important info I left out. :wink:

The compartment could be for batteries for a vibration motor? As for the segments I think its just the design of the hand grips.
