Shit, I just won Crisis Force CIB for the Famicom by accident. Didn't think my bid would even be close to enough at the end. I'm done buying for the week!

I giggled at this.  I've done this several times, thrown in a bid you thought was dirt cheap and where you never think you have a shot at winning, yet you do. Although pleased at the good bargain, you think to yourself "shit, I really didn't think it would sell that cheap"!

Just bought a new soldering iron to replace the one that recently died. Gonna pick up a couple of 40 pin sockets at the local part shop to install into my AES and Neo CD front loader for when I can pick up a UniBIOS for the AES and a Debug chip for the CD. Already got the AES BIOS out. It's what killed my old soldering iron.

Thrifting...





Also grabbed this last night.  It's a dupe for me, but thought the price was right.  It will make a good bargaining chip at my local flea market.

Working on expanding my home arcade collection

With bootlegs?

[whisper2053]

Who cares?

I bought them with the full understanding of what they were, as well the full understanding that a bootleg plays in my system (in this particular case) just as well as a non-boot. They work, I can play the games. What difference does it make to you if they are not VGA-sealed-forever-in-a-plastic-box-on-a-shelf worthy?

Edit: Wow, that came off awful dickish. Had a bad day and that just was terrible. Still, the point is, I bought them to play. Boots suffice just fine man, that's all I need.

I'm with you, my slug 3 and 5, super dodgeball, and drift out share the same qualities. They work and they were cheap.

Finally caved and pulled the trigger on an $80 BIN (free ship) for this one.

It's an awesome game, and it was worth every penny!

Well yeah that was pretty retarded and overly defensive. I'm the guy raffling away a Sapphire boot, you think I care about the morals of you buying the stuff? The main reason why I asked was because the Atomiswave bootleg stuff last I heard was buggy as f*ck all. Unless the bootleggers ironed out all the bugs I don't see why anyone would want to drop serious money down on the stuff yet.
