Lol, a system that does both Turbo and Super CDs?

CD games are not region locked. If you mean CD2 games when you say "Turbo", because of the TurboGrafx CD System Card or something, the Super CD and Arcade Card system cards are backwards compatible.

So for what you were looking for, any Duo system does and there's probably 100 for sale on eBay at any given time.

You guys are crazy. His posts are too damn long for me to read!

I also need games so you guys can PM me as well lol! I will discuss any game whether I played it or not. If I havent played it, I will base my opinions strictly on the box art and the description given on the back lol.

I also except hucards wrapped in tissue paper!

To have only started playing Obey for a year and then to drop thousands in one swoop scares me. That might be more than I've paid entirely for Obey in the years, yes years, that I've been buying them. Granted when I started there weren't as many mentally ill Nintendo Age members getting bored and jumping ship onto the next hotness, so prices weren't quite as ridiculous, but yeah. Buying too much too soon can kill anything... maybe. Eff.

Your actions certainly point to you flipping your shit at the drop of a dime in the future. And not here, as has been said before.

*sigh*

Dont listen to this noob! Take it from a long time member like myself. To play imports on the america turbo or duo system you need to first load an american CD. when the game boots and the CD is spinning its fastest you have to open the door and remove the american CD then put in the japanese disc. After a reset it should play fine. Classic disc swap trick  :P

Plus, if I listed all the stuff I got, i'm sure most would agree the games are quite good, I'm not personally sure if the system has expensive bad games, but if it does, I have no desire to own them. This is something that I think does separate me from a lot of collectors, you have people wanting to spend 5k on a copy of cheetahman II, but i'd not want that in my presence, scarcity is only neat when it's applied to something I enjoy. Again, just me though.


I personally would be very interested to find out what games you dumped this money into. Esp. after, Ill bet .....a lot of those games (at least 1) was available as a pressed repro, and Ill bet you turned your head at the thought of that.
Switchzx's amazing quote -
"I was starting with the hardest to get games first. I realized I was never going to get Magical Chase so gave up on it all, sold up and got out."


Blueraven's quote - "it begins."

Based on the excellent TG16 game art, we know every review will be 10/10.

I don't do repro's unless the game didn't release in the US or at all, and even then it's quite rare (I believe I have 2 or 3). The only repro i'd consider is magical chase and I've never been made aware of one just yet.

Here is a picture of the order, all but 2 of the titles came from Jello, so thanks again man. I'll start with New Adventure island :P



Worked out good, thanks again!

Did that Exile: Wicked Wild West come from JelloCutie? I might start crying. Might.

It's sad that 1/2 to 2/3 of what you paid was for the cardboard boxes. :/

Yes exile was one of his, Dead Moon and Dungeons and Dragons was from another seller, but the rest was from him. While not likely relevant here, I actually first learned of the TG16 when I realized Working Designs had published titles on that system, it's why I wanted to get it in the first place since I love their games. I managed to snag vasteel with the slip prior but, Exile will have to live shirtless :P

And I agree, the cost of the cardboard is sad, but it sure does look kinda cool.

I'm glad that I don't much care for cardboard, as that shit is ridiculously overpriced. The only ones I have aside from the two Sparky repros are Cosmic fantasy 2 and Sonic Spike. They will probably get raffled at some point... unless I run out of toilet paper some night, of course. :3

Give me your Exile.

Oops, double post. Sorry.

Please accept this hot picture as a formal apology:
