Proud of you, I KNOW this has been high want of urs for a long time. Nice Fetch.
It has strangely been a want of mine for a while. But only if I could find it for less than $2. Like the one you set aside for me. And then sent to someone else.
With respect, "Local Retro Game Shoppe" and I had been in the midst of a blossoming relationship, and unfortunately for you, Rugrats was a high want of theirs as well. Sorry Boo.

oddly enough my X'EYE is one system you wouldn't catch me dead modding.....unless of course i found a second one, that point aside i still dont get every ones love for S-video i dont really see any visual difference with systems this old personally.
I would have to disagree, I went s-video with every console that I had that could support it and the difference was night and day. The newer consoles seem to sharped up much better though, ps2, GC, Dreamcast (I have VGA, but not in my game room) all were dramatically improved. The N64 lost a lot of its "muddy-ness" its known for too.
I am thinking about s-video on my Genesis as well.
I posted a long winded rant on what I had to do to get not one but two complete copies in the Gamestop Evil Thread. I included a copy of the rant in my review of this obscure game with info on why Atlus games are so hard to find.

No Players Choice here, Atlus games usually have a small one time production run. Coupled with the fact that this game is so unusual to a niche audience and the Gamecube console having a shorter life then most consoles, Cubivore is destined to be a true collectible. I'm keeping both, good to have a backup of a rare game.
A very rare game in my area, no stores in stock within 100 miles!

yes. it is a very big difference. perhaps you do not have a good tv?
^^ My Available List ^^ My B/S/T list I also rent and sell PS2, Wii and XBOX softmod-kits and I collect DVD movies let me know what you have.
Picked up a 27" Sony Trinitron CRT with S-video and component with matching stand for $45 today. This is going to go with the other 22" I just got in that big collection. I will dual screen these in my retro room and hook up all consoles to them. Should be fun.
I will never understand how a legit gamestore can not know the value of a game. The gamecube games at my local stores are $10, $12, $15 for games that have an ebay value of $4-5. Then you grab Cubivore for $12? Great catch CRT. Crazy.
