Retro console and games thread

been changing around the nerd wall :) havent got enough wall space

Yeah, I think that's awesome, too. But I could never do it. I'd just be devastated if something happened like flood or fire and lost everything. So these days I'm in a Japanese frame of mind (i.e. minimalist) and have all my games digital.
 
after buying that street fighter pad, i found on estocks they had this listed

"Xbox;XboxXbox;Xbox Street Fighter 2 Controller: Akuma (Xbox VideoGames " that listed for £7.77 free postage but they had no pictures so i was hoping it was going to be the akuma version of the pad i have,so i ordered it.

This is what turned up today, fully boxed pad for £7.77 posted,think it was a bargain

I've got the Chun-Li version of that playstation pad all boxed etc too, got it from Ninja Games, west yorks.

Anyway, having to sell off a lot of my retro stuff (space, funds, new house etc)

Selling some of the rarer stuff separately, adventures of batman and robin for Snes up first. Used to love playing this back in the day :)
 
Anyone well up on the Game Trader page on FB? :)

Made a purchase on a A1200 the other day, but just seems a bit dodgy right now.

Paid via PayPal goods So should be fine?
 
i have bought a few things and had no problems, just ask a game trader admin if your concerned , most people post saying is this seller trusted and people willtell you if they are good to deal with.
 
Just join the group... there's a lady selling link: faces of evil for the philips on there. Not sure if she knows how much its worth or I should tell her. Awful game thou.

Seems Yodel were the let down, no show on collection day, seller rebooked delivery...I suppose if things do go badly wrong, I can open a dispute on PayPal.
 
Got a nice bundle from the same guy i got the megadrive games from last week, he sold me this lot for £50

Snes(nice and white) with mario kart,Battle toads, teris dr mario,spiderman, primal rage, and 3 pads and power hookups ect

Then i got a random box of megadrive games which i noticed splatter house 2 :) which i was planning to buy, also got loads lose carts think in total about 30 games and 6 spare black cases.I might have to print myself out a cover for splatter house

I notice you have 2 copies of road rash there ;)
 
What's the max I should pay for a used PS1 in reasonable condition with the basic cables and one controller?

Battletoads! such an epic game (so I'm a bit biased - brings back a lot of memories everytime I play it - stupid hoverbikes lol)

Two SNES console don't work the Nintendo logo comes on screen then the picture goes dark then fades away to were you can barely see it, its odd , using the same setup the other SNES works perfect was playing Dr Mario last night

Oh and noticed ultimate soccer on retro collect is coming up as rare and on eBay some sell for £30.

Think the next game I want for megsdrive is Boogerman: a pick flick adventure I am sure I had it back In the day

meant to be pretty hilarious too

I still need to locate the original Streets of Rage, Road Rash 1,2 and 3, Zero Tolerance and Probotector. my find of all finds would be any type of version of TMNT: The Hyperstone Heist cart only....tbf PCB only if it works lol

also need a box and instructions for Streets of Rage 2...just doesnt feel right to one of the defining games on the system as cart only :(

I've bought a few for a couple of quid each. Depends if its a DS controller, controllers for Ps1/2 (official ones at least) are the hardest to get in good condition.
