Nice find and generous of you to do a raffle.  Finding new old stock now days of almost any old game is quite the score.   

the box is cooler than the contents.

kidding (sort of), I wanted to love sonic spike, but it's a bit too choppy for me.  I love Super Spike V'ball on NES, but that may just be my rose tinted glasses and memories of playing it with a good friend I don't see anymore.

I loved Super Spike V'Ball.  :D I never made it past the US Navy team (I always called them Mav and Goose) but the game was a great way spend a lazy Saturday afternoon. There should've been an OST for it as well.

Me too, I love Super Spike V'Ball.  I used to played this game a lot.  If I remember correctly it features the Double Dragon twins, Billy and Jimmy. Technōs Japan at it's finest.

PRO TIP: Diskounters has been selling these for ten bucks on a little-known site called for years. Jesus christ, you guys.

Jesus christ, you guys.

Nobody's pissing down both legs about this being the find of a lifetime, and we all know you can buy games on the internet, but how often do you see 'em still in the master carton?  Were we supposed to tell jelloslug to f*ck off?

I'M A DICK

Come on, you know that finding a sealed box of turbografx games in a random brick and mortar is way different than buying a copy off the internet... besides not everyone knows where all deals are sitting idle anyway.

No dig on Jelloslug, it was clever of him to realize that Diskounters would still have their original stock in original cartons, but it's surprising that three of you guys couldn't figure out where they came from.

I'm tempted to buy 6 more and just keep them sealed up....

thats cool only thing like that I've got is for the atari lynx
I bought some Neo-Geo aes games from japan and they cam packed in a Japanese Majora's Mask shipping box.

Lol, I got stuff from Japan one time packed in a GameCube box.  Eventually I picked up a Spice Cube to stick in there because I couldn't bear to throw it away.

I almost bought The Sopranos game from him until I found out I played the game before and how bad it sucked. The guy has a lot of new sports games thats for sure.. Oh yeah and lots and lots of cpu heatsinks. Anyway a good deal indeed, always have suggested Amazon was a good place to get turbo games and even a few Saturn games from time to time.
