The original (and best) Gameboy. That looks to be in great condition mate. Well done, a good buy! I remember Chirtsmas 91" was a great year for me with that original Gameboy (and box), Tetris, Quix and Double Dragon as my starter games!

My Castle Of Illusion and World Of Illusion games arrived yesterday. Once Quackshot is here I will post a pic of all three.

right thinking about getting into dc/saturn collecting.
a question: does anyone know how common fake vmus and controllers are?
i keep on looking around ebay and see loads of people selling boxed new vmus and controllers? surely there cant be loads still around in bulk?

Regarding this:

Mine arrived today and it's an official completely new boxed controller. :) Epic bargain. Almost tempted to get a load more. :p
 
Hello orderoftheflame mate.
Just out of interest, I noticed the same ebay seller is selling them in packs. I.e. 2 controllers for 7.99 odd and 4 controllers for 16.99.
But surely the 4 controllers price is more expensive than buying 2 x 2 controllers?

You get me?
 
Just ordered 2 x 2 controllers for under £16. BARGAIN! :) Thanks for your feedback about the seller btw mate :) I probably would not have bought them otherwise.
Yea saw the VMUs too! But not beige colour :( Was there matching controller colours?

Just got 4 x Dreamcast Pads and a 1 x Vibration pack from the guy being mention above. (went for 2 x 2 x controllers if that makes sense) Just need to get a console and some games now.... ^_^ Not bad for £20 to be honest. How much did they used to retail for new?

Would like to get Crazy Taxi, Chu Chu Rocket and Sonic Adventure as well as Shenmue 1 & 2 as I never played them when they first came out :)

bought £30 new if i remember correctly.
with the auctions and consoles just be patient, play your cards right and dont bid stupid amounts, a console will fall into your lap at some point.
ct, chuchu and sonic adv are all super cheap to pick up, shenmue not so much and expect to pay £30+ for shen2
 
Aye, I'm in no rush to get anything so will just keep my eye out and bid within reason. I noticed most of what I wanted was al pretty cheap thankfully and had a feeling the Shenmue were going to set me back a tad more. All just a case of waiting it out.
 
I have my N64! 2 controllers with rumble packs, mem expansion pack, 7 games, 2 of them boxed and all for £30 :D

Just need to get a DC now lol
