Picked up some more Nintendo Power today.

Issues 68-79 amazingly all with posters and with rip out cards in the back of many issues.



Also found issue 100



Also with poster and what not. Now I have issues 1-46, 68-79, 100, the last two years what ever numbers those are and the finale issue. Maybe I can get a complete set?

The mouse guard looks nice and was $6 at a half price books store. Might be fun to read to my son once he gets a little older. Plus it is mostly pictures with little text so it could also be a fun beginner book for him as well.

Then there is the Zelda guid. A personal favorite in the series as well as far as GB games go from my childhood.

Thought I'd post a few pictures of the comic art. Sorry for the glare.










Cursory glance on the internet tells me there is also a few hard bound collections of his series. Might track those down as I just like hardbound books and TPB more.

I know I have a few of the individual comics of this series but I never really got into it. Mostly due to the difficulty in finding single issues and my lack of knowledge when the issues would come out. Granted I first saw these comics maybe seven years ago? 

Based on the art it always seemed like something that would adapt well as a animated feature.

Just a Genesis cart. Found at a garage type sale.
The cart is not in the greatest shape (looks like it was a rental) but Alisia Dragoon is a top game.

At one point the price for a copy COB had jumped to something like $100 or more.

I wanna say it has finally gone back down as I visited a retro game store in my home town who had two copies. One for $35 (bought it) but no Manuel and another copy for $50 CIB.

The Arcade Duo card I bought finally came in yesterday.

whats the deal with the AV box coming out of the Genny 3?

It takes the consoles RGB signal and converts it to S-Video.
That XMD-3 device works with a whole bunch of Sega systems.


These are a couple comparison pics of the game Flashback on the Sega CD.

majors sent me a nice IDE hard drive for my phatty PS2 to use along with hdloader, plus some random swag too



And, I got some Neat PCE magazines and a Super Famicom mag about Popful Mail. The PC Engine Fan ones are from late in the life of the system and cover pce and pc-fx games so they have been super fun to look through! The SFC one has some cool Popful Mail promo art I've never seen as well, one more thing for the Popful horde!
