Got this from the local pawn shop. Always wanted to try it out.

Got it home and opened it up.

That works too.

I kinda think that's awesome. The better looking artwork and pricier game to look at on the shelf...and the actually fun game to play on the inside. They call that a win-win.

:lol: , well at least you've got a nice box for Shining in the Darkness? A loose copy of it shouldn't set you back much.

And that Truxton's in great shape so if you didn't pay much you got a sweet deal.

Maybe there's a Truxton box with Shining game waiting for you in that pawn shop?...

If not, I would ask for a reduction on that Frankenstein's monster... :wink:

Do they have Pawn Shops in Belgium? "Reduction" requests in most pawn shops will get your available blood reduced. We have about a dozen pawn shops w/in 50 miles of where I live, i'd feel safe asking for a reduction in only one of them.

Your better off with truxton. Shining is shitty AND tedious.

Picked up this Pigskin Arcade game from a local antique shop for $50, didn't plug it in at the store but got it home and it actually works. Its not perfect but was too cheap to pass up. May make it something else.

Not that I know of. At least not anymore. Only second-hand shops. There was this one second-hand shop in my town where I always asked for a reduction, and got one. Unfortunately she stopped and went back to hooking. Sigh...

And no, I wouldn't even want a reduction there. She'd have to pay me, a lot, to wanna do her. She's old, puffy, has fake breasts, snorts cocaine like a hoover, and when she wears open shoes you can smell her feet from a mile away...

Still miss that shop... :|

Now there's only that one shitty Arab with some second-hand electronics where I live. He's an asshole, so I don't go there anymore...

Wait, you guys had yet another stupid proprietary longbox for Saturn games over there?

As far as the game, is it particularly good or rare?
PAL region exclusive we have Ps1 longbox like boxes for Saturn games
i have never personally played it but at the time it was supposedly decent
never played it myself, but apparently it was one of the first great 3d rugby games. Came out for PSX as well, but the Saturn version seems to be harder to come by.

Check out the sweet intro, complete with haka

And yeah...this is my first actual Euro/Aus/NZ boxed saturn game and the cases are different. They are actually much better than the north american ones...more solid.
The game actually just recently had a spiritual sequel released in the form of Rugby Challenge (aka Jonah Lomu Rugby Challenge, Wallabies Rugby Challenge and All Blacks Rugby Challenge) http://rugbychallengegame.com/
