Retro console and games thread

Knew I should have kept my mouth shut.
Guy I bought the game from, just sent out a general message, his storage place has been flooded. Apparently everything's fine, but doesn't look like I'll be getting it this week. :(
 
Seen this lovely 42" Sony CRT with TV stand and freeview built onboard.. Just a dam shame I've not space for it in my gaming room as it's only £30 pounds..

EDIT: On brighter news, I've got my master everdrive today... it's great; well worth the cash, it doesn't mean that I'll stop collecting master system games, just means that I'm not in a rush and won't be paying stupid prices for them now. I'm going to get a SNES one asap. :)

Just posted some pictures on the Neo Geo forums, just want to make sure she's the real deal, and not 1 hell of an expensive bootleg.

Edit update - Finally beat the 1st level on 1 credit!

Awesome, I didn't know they made CRT's that big! Re your everdrive, I love my N64 one!
 
Its becoming a problem, shouldn't really buy anything else considering I haven't stopped playing Guardian Heroes since I got it and won't stop anytime soon, the music in Panzer Dragoon is awesome though.

Nah haven't managed to win Zwei at a sensible price, I basically made a list of about 25 games I really want (all of which I owned 10 years ago....) and then I applied a set price I won't allow myself to exceed for each game, the highest I gave myself was Guardian Heroes at £20, managed to get it for £14, the rest all range from £3 to £10 including Zwei, so far the cheapest one went for £9.50 but had I not forgotten to bid I'm sure it would have went higher.

I did the same with the Snes and it worked well just have to setup your searches on ebay so it emails you when something has been listed and pray someone undervalued a game with a buy it now price :P
 
The spine is a little tatty, but I think the main reason was he had spelt it Gardian Heroes, so unless you did a Saturn wide search you would miss it, I believe its the same reason I got Panzer Dragon (not Dragoon), for a decent price too.

Shouldn't give away my secrets.... still after Dark Savior, Bomberman, PD Zwei, Children of the Atom, Sonic R and Story of Thor, I would love PD Saga and Dragon Force but I am realistic and never gonna see them for anywhere near what I would be willing to pay.

I bagged sonic R, panzer zwei and winter heat for 20 quid I think it was from a mate. Children of the atom was a total fluke on ebay for about 6-7 delivered on a random lunch time auction

Bomberman is top of my wanted list with dark saviour not far behind. Panzer saga is a wish but as you say just too much money!

One of my friends still has his original Saturn and has saga, burning rangers, dark savour amongst a list of about 50 games he bought when new! Soooo envious

Was there not a website that did all the possible miss spelling of an item on eBay automatically for the user?
