XBox Monster Component Cable - $4.00 Swap Meet
Due to my recent find of a stack of 28 XBox Games including CONKER on the cheap posted a few pages back, I am gearing up to buy an XBox. Saw this laying on the table, figure when I do find an XBox, it will likely only have composite cables.

PS2 HDAdvance 2.0 - $2.00 Swap Meet
CIB including instructions. Actually, the owner cut out the cardboard sleeve and placed the whole package inside a DVD case. Another spare set of CD and DVD boot discs for my Fat PS2 hard drive installed games. I prefer the pressed disc over the memory card route. CD, DVD and Dual Layered games that are installed with 3.0 boot just fine with 2.0. A seamless way to play the original PS2 games including CD versions, right off the hard drive.

PC Commanche 4 - $2.00 Swap Meet
The seller also had this PC Flight Sim. Played the older Comanches in the series, nice to get an inexpensive update.

GBA DotStream DigiDrive - $2.00 Each Swap Meet :shock:
A series of games under the Bit Generations label, there were a total of seven games. I wonder if any relation to the Bit Trip series on the Wii?

DotStream
Similar idea as Tron Light Cycles racing except just scrolling to the right. Go around obstacles that will slow you down. There is a WiiWare version called Light Trax.

DigiDrive
This is a strange game. Direct the ships to different tracks to keep the the disc at the right floating higher.

No matching boxes just the game carts. Ah well, these are a rare find here in the US.

The company isnt called Bit Generations, that's the series. They're Nintendo published games made by either Skip ltd. (who made Chibi Robo, Captain Rainbow and Giftpia), except for Digidrive, which was by Q games (who made Starfox Command and the Pixeljunk series).

They have nothing to do with the Bit.Trip games. The Bit Generations series basically became the Art Style series when it was bought to Wiiware and DSiWare. Many of the Bit Generations games have ports available on one of the download services.

Boundish - No port
Dialhex - became Rotohex on WiiWare
Dotstream - became Light Trax on WiiWare
Coloris - No port
Orbital - became Orbient on WiiWare
SoundVoyager - No port
Digidrive - became Digidrive (NA) or Intersect (PAL) on DSiWare

In addition to the 4 GBA ports, the art style series also includes 2 unique WiiWare games and 6 unique DSiWare games and they're generally all fantastic. I think the whole series is pretty underrated. Just avoid Zengage/NemRem on DSiWare - it's not so hot.

Picked up complete copies of The Suffering(Xbox) and Yu Yu Hakusho Dark Tournament(PS2) for $6 at my usual place.

Sadly it looks like they are having trouble moving their inventory :P. Some games have been sitting there over a month and I haven't noticed a single wii game (other then the few I picked up) sell since I started going there :P.

Ok here is what I stumbled upon today locally. The timing is a bit coincidental as I just bought a consolized MVS yesterday :shock:

Image
AES console with S-Video and stereo audio mods

Image
The balls all seem cracked. 2 have issues. One wont register back, and the other wont register down. I am hoping I can open and clean them.

Image
Samurai Shodown
Samurai Shodown 2
Soccer Brawl
Art of Fighting 2
Fatal Fury Special

Image

I originally went for the AES and he also had the 64 in his trunk. I paid $500 for everything above.

I'm not too up with the price of AES consoles and games, but that's a good price, right?

I thought so, or I wouldnt have gone through with it heh. I know the gold 64 has gone up a bit, along with the CIB majoras.

JP Console, yeah? Bout' $200 console/cables, could be a bit more w/unibios mod. Good working stick about $40, cracked balltops are common and will need replacing, but they're relatively cheap. The games are pretty common at $15-25 apiece, but even common AES games add up in a hurry. Soccer Brawl is the rarest in the lot, but it's less coveted Dog Tag version, or id'a pm'd you already for it :)

I believe it has unibios mod. Total Neo Geo hardware noob, but when game started up, some bios options flashed up on the screen. Would that be typical in an unmodded system?

I've only ever played on a modded system, my guess would be that is not standard. What were the bios options? Region / cheats / etc? Take a gander at the bottom of this page and if yr seeing these things, it has a unibios, the version should be listed right on startup, I believe ver3.1 is newest, but not positive.

I would love to have all of the bit Gereation series on the GBA. Eventually I'll get around to it soon who knows. It'll be cheaper to look for cart-only so that's what I'll do. The Art Style series are phinominal games. I liked all of the DSiWare games. I suggest getting into them.
