What do you think the Hacker/GE games are worth?
« on: July 22, 2007, 06:24:08 PM »
It's meant to be both philosophical and economical.  I have some I'm unloading, so I'm curious what people think fair prices are.  Also, I'm wondering what people think the gameplay value is.  From personal experience, Strip Fighter II was god awful as the hit detection is terrible and the animation is wonky.  Shinsetsu 2 is what it is.  The game is meant for one thing and that it does well.  AV Poker is alright if not a bit boring, but it's not any worse that comparable official games.  But with the others, as RPGs, I can't really judge since I can't read/speak the language.  Thoughts?

Specifically, these:
Shinsetsu Shiawase Usagi 2
Hi Leg Fantasy
Lady Sword
AV Poker World Gambler 
Strip Fighter II
Body Conquest II
AV Tanjo (GED-1015) 
CD Mahjong Bishojuo (GED-1010)

Hi Leg Fantasy is no good. As much as I tried to get into it, its clunky, half the graphics look NES'ish and it erased all my save files. :x

I think Lady Sword & Hi Leg are the most decent out of all their games personally.

They're worth a combined total of one shiny nickel, but I'm feeling generous so I'll give you a whole dime for 'em.  :lol:

Seriously, I have no idea what they are worth, but here's my thoughts on a couple of the games.  AV Poker is pretty solid, but it is a poker game and therefor, kinda lame.  Lady Sword is a dandy dungeon crawler that is much better looking than Double Dungeons (and I ain't just talking about the nude ladies).  Body Conquest and Hi Leg Fantasy look all right to me, but I didn't get very far with my nonexistent Japanese language skills.

PS - Good luck with your sale.

Yeah these games seemed decent to me.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

I've played the first two levels of Lady Sword and thought it was pretty cool (dungeon map really helps). I heard some of the GE CD games were getting pricey, but that was on the assembler forums so I can say for sure.

I'd say that they are worth from $30 to $50. Thats what I see them going for.

How rare are the GE cards themselves? And which version(s) do you have?

No more rare than the games they came with (they weren't sold separately).

Personally I remember seeing the Hi Leg Fantasy consistently in the $100+ range and the other typically $25-35.  Has anyone seen any of these for sale recently?

Each of the games I have has the card that came with it.

YJ recently (like, in the last week) had a copy of Hi-Leg Fantasy that got up into the 10,000 yen range.  I don't know what it ended at, I forgot to keep an eye on it.

Philosophically speaking they are worth whatever it takes to recycle them. Economically I'd say $25-60 depending on the title.

Lady Sword was a great dungeon crawler, it gets really hard though.

Hi: The game Lady Sword is quite amazing game. it's very similar with swords & serpents (nes). The monsters look great. the music is very apropiate to the storyline. the dificult thing here is the languaje. Some rpg's like y's & dragon knight are playable with japan languaje, but this game its very dificult. all options & controllers are in pure japanesse. I payed 35 dollars for this game in ebay but worths every penny. Great game.
Strip fighter II is not so bad. it's just playable jejeje.
