Good, "Cheap" CD-Rom and Super CD games?

[lukester]

Hey all,

I have 2 CD games. That's it. Not even Super CD. 

I don't have much knowledge of the CD library. What are some really good games, that can be had for a fair price? Thanks.

I do want to get Rondo at some point though...

Insanity and Pyramid Plunder are cheap!



but, most PCE CD games are fairly cheap honestly.   Check out like, legion or l-dis for shooters?

Just go to Hit Japan's site (GameofJapan.com) and sort by price and start buying shit!

You have to specify what you consider "cheap" or a "fair price".

Most CD games aren't expensive.

If you want to avoid the shipping fees associated with importing and you like the action/puzzle genre, then get Splash Lake.  I often see it for sale under $20 shipped and it is one of my most played CD games.

$30 or less. Up to $40 for something outstanding.

I used to own splash lake. I thought it was ok, not my cup of tea.

I do want to get ys I and ii again. Amazing, but I never got past the mines...

It's also a must-own IMO, along with the also-reasonable Buster Bros/Pomping World.

I love Buster Bros. However, I may never beat it.

I ONCE got to the Moon level, and instantly was annihilated.

Maybe I'll try it later.

30$ or less?  That's most of the library!

If you like Fighting games, you can find FF special, Flash Hiders, Kabuki itto Ryodan and Asuka 120% burning fight at very cheap prices and they're all very good. FF special, exept the parallaxes, is nearly Neo Geo perfect.
