I think their policies mainly target consoles that have been modded to play backups/copies, I've seen plenty of people sell AV modded consoles and stuff on eBay so I don't think they care about that. I actually sold an AV modded DINA 2-in-1 on eBay and I never got any flack about it.greg wrote:It's strange though, as I thought that selling modded consoles on eBay was a violation of policies?
That's odd, at least for me. The first time I lived in Japan, over ten years ago, I used to buy Super Famicom and Saturn games and sell them on eBay (back before competition got fierce). eBay closed some of my auctions just because I mentioned in the game's description that you either need a Japanese console, or have a modded system to play imports. They killed several auctions I had up at once, so I had to re-list them. Ever since then, when selling a Japanese game on eBay, I've adopted the disclaimer, "You must have a system that can play Japanese imports. If you do not know if your system can play Japanese imports or not, then you probably don't have one, so don't bother to bid!"ApolloBoy wrote:I think their policies mainly target consoles that have been modded to play backups/copies, I've seen plenty of people sell AV modded consoles and stuff on eBay so I don't think they care about that.

a technical fact never makes a game superior or inferior to the other when we talk about retro (and looks like we do:)marurun wrote:Well, if you get a PC Engine or Core Grafx unit you can always add CD capabilities later. You probably will want to add CD capabilities at some point as some of the best games are on SuperCD. The base PCE is so low on main RAM that many HuCards are a bit constrained. The CD games use read/write space as a cache, so many CD games use tricks that, quite simply, work better than they do on HuCard.
You are correct, of course, but it can be argued that systems with fewer technical limitations do allow game developers to be more flexible with their ideas. I think the PCE/TG has some great games in all formats.dtrack wrote:a technical fact never makes a game superior or inferior to the other when we talk about retro (and looks like we do:)
There are a ton of great games, and there are even some articles and guides here at the site worth reading on the matter.btw what cd games would you recommend?
