I don't even own the Turbo port of Ys III. Shiz is mad expensive. Plus I have it on SNES, Genesis, and PS2.
is it? or did this guy just get really lucky? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ys-iii-Wanderer ... 35e0491d55

Well that is still what I'd consider "mad expensive." :lol: It's more than a new current-gen game.

But yeah, certainly a much lower price than most BINs. I'd say he did well.

Nice! (The Vectrex game is particularly interesting.)

Where did you find them?

The internet. :lol:

So I guess they aren't true "pick-ups." More like a delivery. Got 'em nice and cheap.

I also snagged a couple of Atari 8-bit games... but I don't yet have a system for those. I won't add games to my "Collection List" until I'm positive that they work.

You can play the Vectrex when you're here! The vector graphics are amazing. So smooth.

I run across these from time to time (and they are usually very, very cheap). Are there any particular title you are looking for?

Nope!

As far as I'm concerned... any cheap Atari game I see = instant buy! :lol:

Of course you're under no obligation to pick up games for me. :lol:

I was planing on getting an 8-bit system soon, but got distracted. Damn PC-FX. It'll probably be the final Atari system I buy. The price and rarity of ST / Jaguar / Jaguar CD stuff is a bit too much for me.

Oh, and in addition to the whopping one official Vectrex game I now own, I also have a great flash cart I got from a member here loaded up with a bunch of games (including homebrews like Frogger). We could sink some serious time into this thing.

Bull Moose Music (a ME / NH chain) has become one of my favorite places to go game shopping. Got all this for about $20 today. I have the best luck finding obscure strategy guides there.

I've been virtually going back in time and buying old RPGs I missed. Recently got Evergrace for PS2 and Summoner: A Goddess Reborn for GC. Trying to find a good deal on Forever Kingdom and Wild Arms 5 now.
PLAY KING'S FIELD.
