Finished this subset with the inclusion of the Famicom Rolling Thunder.

Image

Two things of interest here:

Whoever did the US box art for Rolling Thunder 2 and 3 must have been given the original art for the first game as inspiration since they all use Maskers in the foreground.

and

Namcot Famicom cases are ADORABLE!

That's weird, a game with 2 sequels I've never heard of. I didn't play Genesis too much when I was a kid though.

They're both pretty great if you like Rolling Thunder. The second game has really fun two player co-op. I absolutely love the series.

Each console has exclusive very good games, here are a couple great exclusives for the PS2.

PS2 Trapt - $20.00 BookOff
A bit pricey for a BookOff game, but well worth it. Love staging traps thru the rooms and hitting my remote button set off the booby trap on the enemies running up the stairs. The explosion bomb and the wall crush are very satisfying when timing the hit just right. :D

Image

PS2 Guitaroo Man - $7.00 BookOff :shock:
Took a few years to finally find this game in the wild and at an unbelievable price! Move the analog stick to aim towards the pattern, time and hold the corresponding button to send a guitar riff attack. Defend mode similar to Bust A Groove, the music is very well done!

Image

PS2 NTSC-J Gitaroo Man Wan - $5.00 BookOff :shock: :shock:
This was right next to the Guitaroo Man game above. This came out before the official release and is a playable demo of a couple of levels along with a exclusive mini game. Different music from the US release. A very sweet bonus!

Image

Both games were displayed were in the Japanese section even though the other game above is US version! I suspect the games were traded in by a music game collector, there are also a few other different music games including PS2 Space Channel 5 Special Edition which I already own.

PS2 NTSC-J Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+ - $10.00 BookOff
Another very nice find, the PS2 game was only released in Japan. There is a PS3 HD version of this, but still a very cool import with Japanese soundtrack! I already have the US text language patches downloaded so I can have the entire features of both Kingdom Hearts 2 and Chain Memories with ALL the cinematics installed in the PS2 hard drive. :mrgreen:

DVD Jim Hensen Story Teller TWO DISC Complete Collection $30.00 BookOff :shock:
This includes the expensive second season of Greek Mythology, a very very pricey set on Amazon and Ebay. This was a short lived TV series that have interesting folklore tales, the first season is narrated by the great John Hurt.

SNES USB PC Controller Adapter - $3.00 BookOff
Play games on the PC with a SNES controller. A very nice price; the SmartJoy series of adapters have great reliability. I suppose the controller listed below could also work as well, but would be silly considering the PC has a laser mouse.

SNES Mouse/Ball Cover/Mousepad/Mario Paint - $23.98 Shipped Ebay :D
No yellowing at all and all the hardware is pristine new condition! Mouse appears hardly used and is protected by the red cap pictured, the rarest part of the SNES Mouse. Oh I had to get this for my SNES SupaBoy and the following game!

SNES Arkanoid: Doh It Again $12.99 Shipped Ebay
Ooooh yeah and mouse compatible. Dare I say this is a much better game and control over the Vaus NES version set of which I also own. Yes, the SNES Mouse has a very crisp response, love this game now played right versus the Commodore 64 version I have first played decades ago.

Even create custom Commodore levels! :idea:

Image

I also have SNES Lemmings and Mario (Japan) Picross which are compatible with the mouse, though the Picross style of game play works better with the Dpad.

SNES Godzilla - Birthday present from daughter
She bought this crappy game as a gag gift to supplement the SNES SupraBoy she had bought for me in the past. This game is really really bad terrible! :lol:

SFC Super Gussun Oyoyo 2 - $22.99 Shipped Ebay
Regulars know how fanatical I am of this game. The second in the series, this puzzle "reverse Tetris platformer" is more forgiving then the first game, the water at the bottom does not rise as quickly.

Image

SFC Super Genjin 2 CIB from Smashed Brother
I forgot to put the box in the picture, Bonk on the SNES! I placed a small laminated level code list on the back, Bonk has almost as many weird powerups as Kirby!

Arkanoid: Doh It Again is one of the best affordable SNES games right now. Probably my favorite version of Arkanoid too. Even with the controller it manages to be extremely playable.

Some nice finds there, CRT. Nice to have a store that actually sells imports like that. I'm very jealous. I actually didn't even know they had Bookoff stores in the US haha.
