I do like how RetroZone uses whacky plastic colors for their carts. No mistaking them for the real thing.


Id just like to know how many Earthbound repro's have been made and sold on ebay. :roll:

Even Terranigma (english in the ntsc cart shell) go for 2-3 times the amount at a reproduction website--around $60, and on Ebay they go for $130+

It's already happened a few times before.

A lot of them are near identical to the real thing. You pretty much gotta open it up to even tell.

This is a case of someone intentionally trying to be deceptive. It's pretty damn scummy.

Had a bit of a dry spell lately, but had a decent local craigslist find today. A bunch of PS1 and PS2 games, mostly RPGs. I am going to cannibalize any that are condition upgrades of my collection, and I plan on keeping 5-6 or so. The others will wind up on my bst thread. So if any catch your eye PM me.
Picked these up all for $300. Wild Arms Alter Code F was supposed to be in there, but the disc was in his PS2 at his parents several hours away. He did throw in 5 or 6 extra games.

The blank PS1 case is a black label Final Fantasy Tactics disc and manual in a jewel.

Those are some nice games!

I wouldn't mind a few of those, but I got a whole bunch of ps2 games too!


It looks like Gamestop has finally decided to end their ps2 stuffs! It's at 75% off

I got mostly sleeve games (ugh), but the price was okay. :|

$47.58 got me all of this; except the dvd and second sight for GameCube, those were five bucks(fleamarket).

The games are: raw danger, super monkey ball deluxe, sly 3, spyro the eternal night, time splitters future perfect, marvel nemesis rise of the imperfects, harvest moon a wonderful life special edition, sonic riders, secret agent clank, drakengard, midway arcade treasures, pacman world 3, and gauntlet legends.

Now is the time to stock up on ps2 memory cards! They were $1.57 each!

Oh and don't forget to ask if they have more games in the back, they usually do

Thats how i got the boxed ps2 games in the pic.

True crime new york city, grand theft auto liberty city stories, midnight club 3 dub edition remix, need for speed most wanted, and resident evil outbreak.

When the guy brought the stuff from the back, all those boxed ps2 games were in bundles of the same item. There were about six copies of true crime and at least three or four of the others.

Good luck if your store still has these!

I'd be interested in Castle of Shikigami 2 if it's for sale at a fair price.

Save for Vakyrie Profile, it seems like it's about at cost for $300. Maybe i"m missing a few valuable ones listed there.
