I've never seen one of these locally before. The 'cash crusaders' store wanted the equivalent of $10 for it.
As soon as I get the chance I'll test to see if it works. Either way it's more than a decent find in this neck of the woods.

If you have a nes rf and a Genesis 1 plug you can use those to see if the tg16 comes on.
Trust me when I tell you that system is very expensive to collect for. This is the one time I really recommend an everdrive for it


Thanks for that. :) But I do have a decent hardware collection that I've imported as far as the Turbo/PC Engine is concerned.
So I do have a bunch of power supplies and RF cables I can use on it.
It's just that it was so weird/strange to see one of those over here. That's why I picked it up.
You literally have almost a zero chance of finding one on these shores.

Ugh. It's been so long since I've posted here....got sick last week, and I don't even remember getting anything during the first week of November. Probably didn't, so screw it. I'm just gonna list what I remember off the top of my head.

First up; 2 weeks ago, I used GameStop's website for a pretty decent deal.

For like, $350, if I bought the Uncharted: Nathan Drake Collection PS4 bundle, you automatically got a free copy of Fallout 4 for free. That was just a no-brainer for me. I've been loving it so far. Got a couple of really neat games for it (which I'll mention soon). That controller is comfy as all get out....

The day after I got my new system, I went into town to pick up a couple of games from some game stores. I got;

GameXChange:
Alien: Isolation (PS4): $19
Warriors Orochi 3: Hyper (Wii U): $10
Cowboy Bebop: The Movie (PSP UMD): $3

GameStop:
Shovel Knight (PS4): $25
ZombiU (Wii U): $12
MewTwo amiibo: $13

Unfortunately, I got sick during my running around, so I wasn't able to play most of these games for a couple of days. Alien: Isolation is pretty fun, but I get lost in it way too easily. Tried Warriors Orochi 3: Hyper and it was good. Not the best ever, but good. ZombiU and Shovel Knight were the best out of the entire pick up, IMO. Named the MewTwo amiibo Frieza, because why not?

The day after my paycheck, I got these off PSN and the Wii U eShop:

PSN:
Sword Art Online: Re: Hollow Fragment (PS4): $20

Wii U eShop:
Freedom Planet: $15
Typoman: $11
Gunman Clive HD Collection: $4

Only really got SAO, because I was going to get the Vita version, but I got a PS4, so it was kinda silly to get the Vita one over it, tbh (especially since the Vita version has a garbage translation). That and the trailer looked interesting for it. Freedom Planet is freaking great, and the best on here. Only got Typoman, because of a discount I have for it, because of some demos I got during e3 this year. Got Gunman Clive HD, since I have the first game on my 3DS, and loved it. $4 for both isn't that bad, IMO.

My brother also got me a Charizard amiibo. Also $13. Named him Shenron, because I guess I was in a DBZ mood or something.

That's about it, tbh.
This user really likes SEGA Saturn. Avoid at all costs.

This is what I got today at my local wednesday fleamarket called Las palmas! Went with my good buddy and we looked at many places. This is what I eventually got! Three dvd’s at $2.00 each of Poltergeist, Gangs of New york and Bruce Willis Collection. I also got the original two disc collection of Final Fantasy spirits within and both those PS1 tomb raiders! Paid $2.00 for them. I also got for two bucks That bust a move n64 game. But the highlight of the day was that PSP rpg (that i’ve never heard of) called Shepherd’s crossing and JPN Panzer Dragoon Soundtrack for $4.50! And then the deals kept coming. I got a fill a bag deal for $5.00 (where one crams all you can into a bag) and I filled it with all sorts of stuff! Those games and Dvds were dirt cheap since they fit in the bag! Plus my friend added stuff to it and in the end he gave me $2.00 for the stuff he put in it. So in the end I paid $3.00 for the whole bag. A few of the movies are staying with me, but the rest will be traded in soon for some sweet store credit!

It's especially nice now that I have a Retron 5 and never really had a Genesis collection. That's 6 quality games in 1 cartridge.

The DS game was Ford Racing 3 BTW. Now I read it's got pretty bad reviews. :oops:

I've got that 6 in 1 cart boxed, it's nice.

I picked up the Rust 7 in. single for 15$ with shipping straight from el heurvo. Got Madvillainy by MF DOOM, Gorillaz (self titled) and some album mounts from amazon coming in the mail for a total of about 50$, picked up Magic Sword Vol 1 Limited Edition Vinyl pressing for 40 or so with shipping from Magic Sword's site.
Also got a Mega64 mystery shirt, and altered states soundtrack and silence of the lambs on laser disc from half price.
Got some good stuff, lots of records.

Guerrilla war was a good pickup as well. I'm surprised it's not a more popular hidden gem on the NES because the action is absolutely bonkers. It's the best top-down run 'n gun on the console in my opinion. It's like Ikari Warriors only good.

Bonus points: It's called Guevara in Japan and you're actually playing as Che Guevara and Fidel Castro in the Cuban Revolution. :lol:

Real Arcade Pro V3 SA- $31 after discount and $3 credit at GameXchange.

Well worn where the right thumb would sit, but otherwise, very good. Not sure if I'm keeping it (hint hint 8) )
