Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
I dont see what's the logic in packing small/mid sized handheld/console cartridges in way oversized boxes. 3DO longboxes are the worst offender though.Hobie-wan wrote:Japanese Game Gear boxed games are so small.

Also looking to buy: Ys III (TG-16 CD), Shadowrun (Genesis) Hori N64 mini pad and Slayer (3DO) in long box/just the long box

Larger cover art to allow them to stand out on the shelf. Also harder to steal.Menegrothx wrote:I dont see what's the logic in packing small/mid sized handheld/console cartridges in way oversized boxes. 3DO longboxes are the worst offender though.Hobie-wan wrote:Japanese Game Gear boxed games are so small.
Possibly the thought that appearing to be a more substantial object would make them seem more valuable.

I have 1 boxed J GBA game, but the few J GB games I have are all loose. I cheated in that picture with the GB player case, but that's what J GC games come in.CFFJR wrote:How does it compare to a japanese game boy box? Those things are freakin' tiny.
From your pictures, it seems to me that the game boy boxes might be a bit thinner.

Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
Super glad I didn't buy SimCity day 1. Looks like there are all sorts of nasty issues.
On the plus side, I have SimCity 4 Deluxe downloading so I'll give that a play again.

Me neither.

So I've got some bids placed on Sculptor's Cut and Conker. This will be like the 4th time I've owned a copy of Conker's Bad Fur Day, man those prices are creeping up fast!
Hopefully I can just get these and the other pricey N64 games knocked out before they go up too much further...

Oh cool. I haven't heard of a couple of those. I'll have to look into them a bit more. Thanks.Stark wrote:Here's some of what I've toyed with buying:Michi wrote:Maybe when PSN finally posts the update for the week there'll be something of interest on sale.

Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
I'm jealous of everyone that got that $10 of PSN credit. I'm on PS+, and have been a loyal customer for years, and I got nothing!
