move mind benders - lemmings, echochrome 2, tumble - $20
initial d - $30
wangan midnight - $20


How are these import racing games? I saw an Initial D game at a local store a while back but I figured my system couldn't play it. Wondering if I should track some of them down?


haven't tried initial d yet, wangan midnight is just like Tokyo Drift on ps2 for the most part. PS3 is region free as far as games go and there are a few import games out there that include English as a language or in subtitles. Also there are some games that were only released on PSN here but released on disc other places.

Found this at a yard sale thru craigslist. They wanted $200 and I got them to sell for $160, it works but needs some work and a good cleaning.

Wow, you're on a roll, girlracer. Two great finds in two days.

Well played, ma'am. I tip my fancy hat to you.

I know, I really didn't have the cash to be spending (house payment week) but its hard to pass up a deal where I may kick myself later for it.

Got Panic Restaurant today. It was priced at 275, but with trade of mostly doubles (or I had a stupid amount like 9 NES decks), I got it for the whopping total of free and they gave me 125 dollars in store credit to go with it. So an extra Sega CD model 2, NES, and master system and a small selection of DS games I got to knock off a rare game off the list.

I figure I had about 70-80 bucks in the stuff I traded in, so I did well I do believe.

Local retro game store was having a 15 percent off sale. None of these were huge deals, they obviously check eBay for prices, but all the game discs were in really clean shape, no shipping and 15% off made it worth while to buy as much as I could.

^^^ $3-5 for unbroken Saturn cases is a good deal by itself!

Found a complete Symphony of the Night stuffed between some sub-par games. $2

Girlracer, if you decide you ever want to get rid of that plus, I'll give you at least double what you paid for it. I have a pac man cabaret and I'm trying to collect all of the Pacs in that style of cabaret. (Pac, Ms Pac, Pac Plus, Super Pac)

My wife was browsing a local Facebook group's listing and come upon a guy asking for Old video games and blah blah "top dollar" blah blah. She looked in the comments and saw a gentleman selling a Turbografx 16 with 2 Turbopads, Turbotap, and eight games which included my personal favorite TG game SplatterHouse (all games CIB). He was asking 150 for the lot, after the guy offered him $50 (trying to say the TG is not that sought after) I sent him a message with a $100 offer.

Personal note
I played this game as a kid (5) at my cousins house and had my mind blown! The games where awesome, bright and fun. I played it a couple of more times but never got the chance to own one, Now 18 years later I can finally call say I have a TG16 of my own. To sum it all up I'm extremely happy to be able to enjoy SplatterHouse and all the other awesome games this console offers anytime.
