no idea, seller didn't know, its getting power to the fan and lights but no video and I don't hear any sound like the game starting up with no video. i'm currently working on it right now. I sent the manual pdf to my dad for him to print it off.

my dad is usually the one that fixes my pinballs and arcades, so it will just take him to get over here and look over it.

Hmm hopefully it isn't anything too hard to fix, since it has no sound either it probably just isn't the old monitor which is a bummer. If nothing else you have a sweet cab that could easily be converted to a Jamma iCade in a heartbeat for about another $150.

Xbox Mortal Kombat Deception Kollectors Edition -
It's a toss up between Rayden and Scorpion for the rarest Collectors Edition MK Deception.
Melinna is easily the most common of the four. Think it goes:

1. Scorpion
2. Rayden
3. Baraka
4. Melinna

Dang, I thought that the Mileena one was the only one for XBOX. I could do a search, but I'm lazy and you seem to know more about it anyway CD Ages. Are the ones you listed only XBOX? I have the Sub Zero one for PS2, but I don't see that on your list.

So basically you can get each of these "characters" for each system? I've started to become a bit of an MK junkie lately, so this just adds fuel to my fire. LOL.

So it appears that only the "Kollector's Edition" is XBOX with the characters. And the PS2 only has Sub Zero and is called the "Premium Pack".

Dang, I like the setup of the PS2 version better. It would have been cool to collect other characters in that version. Oh well.

Spent another $38.67 at gamestop again today :P.

Pursuit Force Extreme Justice(Loose)- $1.79

Victorious Boxers Revolution(CIB)- $4.49
NEW Relable. Another Xseed game for the collection. Only need Victorious Boxers two to have a complete NA set.

The Last Story(CIB)-$19.99
Bought it "NEW" was a display copy with a Pandora's Tower Price Sticker

Onechanbara Bikini Samurai Squad(No Manual :P)- $6.29
They are fetching $17 for disc only on Amazon. Already got a CIB copy a few days ago


Wii Fit(CIB with unused 100 point Club Nintendo Insert :P)- Free
Was hoping to boost myself to gold but they don't accept duplicate game registrations :P. Oh well at least I can probably resell or trade it rather easily to someone looking for some extra club Nintendo points.

Rooms: The Main Building(CIB)- $2.69
Looked like a pretty cool puzzle game. When non-sports games enter the $3 or less zone I have a hard time passing them up :P.

Samba De Amigo(CIB)-$0.99
Poor Samba De Amigo I already own you, but I felt obligated to save you from the yellow sleeve of shame.

Also went ahead and picked up Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon and Pandora's Tower from Amazon new for $20 a piece with free shipping.

Hadn't even heard of Fragile Dreams but it looks amazing.

Edit: Was on the fence since I didn't know if I would get around to playing it anytime soon but also threw a copy of Lunar: Silver Star Harmonyinto my Amazon order it was only $15.99 new.

I was very sad to see the yellow sleeves on inexpensive Wii games at a local Gamestop recently... :(

Fortunately, this store placed the manual and insert at the back of the sleeve; so, I was able to rescue copies of Pop 'n Music, Rooms: The Main Building, and SSX: Blur for a grand total of $6. Moreover - and since the employee had just placed the games in the sleeves - he had plenty of extra white cases and was happy to give three of them to me for my new games.

It usually sells for $12-$25 :D
If you can find somebody who actually wants it. It's... well it was a better attempt at the Dredd universe than the Stallone movie maybe, but it's not very good.
this. and also, $12-25? on what planet? all versions of the game run about $5-9 from what i can see.

still $3.88 is a decent price for a decent FPS.
That's what It was selling for on Ebay. :lol: The bidding started at 1 cent and that's what I got It for. I was hesitant after I saw the review but for $3.88, what the hell.

"selling for" and "sold for" are different things. especially on ebay.

Bought this lot of from a college friend of mine over the weekend. Cost me $140, and I'm pretty happy with the deal. It included a Sega Genesis w/ two controllers, Sonic, Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles, Metroid, Mega Man 2, Mega Man 4, Castlevania, Ninja Gaiden, Ninja Gaiden 2, Gauntlet, and Super Mario AllStars. They all work, though Mega Man 2's label is in rough shape, and there's some marker and a few stickers on others. This is also my first time owning / playing any Sega Console, so I'm excited to see what I've missed out on for so many years.

I've got all my consoles hooked up to a newer HDTV via a composite switcher, but when I hooked up the Genesis, it looked far worse than any of my other systems do. The screen flashed a lot at first, until I actually started playing, and even then, it's fairly blurry. I figured you guys would be able to point me in the right direction in terms of some work-arounds for the video quality. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
