Let's talk about your CPS2 Collecting + Price Guide

[mjmjr25]

updated the price guide to reflect recent sales over the past few months.

I've seen a few shops up the price on the most common games too - presumably due to the new darksoft multi-cart option.

thanks for keeping this current. this is a really useful resource.

Man... I saw those picture labels that someone made over on NG (can't check who, I forgot and I'm at work now) for the CPS2 boxes and now I want to make them all. I was just intending on using the text label option that you linked off Southtown, Mike, but that just blew them out of the water.

The good news? I bet I have most if not all of the marquees in medium to high edit: depressingly low resolution from my MAME Extras torrent, so this shouldn't even be that hard. I just need to turn on my desktop for the first time in months some day when I have some time off (...and am NOT already playing Tower of Doom or Hyrule Warriors. Or Bayonetta 2 starting next week)

Definitely need to dig up higher quality marquee art though

ninja's gonna check with Jasen Hicks to see what he can do and at what cost.

[KalessinDB]

Awesome. I'm already planning on getting a bunch of the Grizz labels from Jasen eventually (since they're flat rate shipping, might as well get a crapload), if he can do those too it'll be freaking amazing.

Edit: I strongly encourage the creation of one for A-Boards too. I mean, I can always make one custom, but I for one am going to store my A-Boards separately from the B-Boards, so having a label for that (as well as Darksoft's upcoming multicart) would just be a cherry on top.

yeah i need a A board label, too. i have some cardboard boxes but they aren't color coded or anything. but i'm at 4 CPS2 titles and 4 A boards, so, i should probably either thin the herd of A boards or box the extras up for a bit.

Ok guys I will talk to Jasen this afternoon about it, I need 16 labels myself. Anyone else please express interest here, and state how many you need so he can estimate a cost per label.

These are the labels he is going to do

Aww damn that's way less exciting than I thought Look at the picture labels that poodude (yes, really) posted here, that's the idea I was salivating over.

Regardless, I would still be interested in the basic labels predone, saves me the trouble. I would be in for 5 -- 2x green A-Board, 1x green Street Fighter Zero, 1x green Darksoft Multi-art, 1x blue DnD: Tower of Doom.

(I'm also interested in ordering 18 custom/replacement MVS labels from him if it makes the slightest difference, which I truly doubt it does, but I figured I would throw it out there)

[mjmjr25]

ninja - those southtown ones are decent but the main "problem" is they don't cover enough of the spine - I have these on my old boxes and don't love them. I can snap a pic. Do you think Jasen would be willing to do something custom if there were enough interest?

I could use 22 cps2 - and if he'd be willing, 8 F3 and 21 PCB.

[ninjainspandex]

Not sure if he would do something custom, he only agreed to print the southtown ones. I kind of like the simplicity of those, kind of like MVS kit boxes. Easy to see the name of the game.

I'll ask him to come and answer peoples questions here.
