Wow, nice on the SuperGrafx and the SMS stuff!

I have a couple carts with a sticker that says like Sega for the 90's but that is the only weird SMS stuff I've got.  I've been slowly trying to pick up US games for the system but prices are really going up now for some reason!

jeffhlewis that is cool info and I love the SMS, I think I am just missing about 10 games myself but I don't get into variants but cool info man.


For me some local old school bits and pieces...Love the odyssey game artwork and packaging, oh I also got a vadar 2600 with it.

Variant collecting is completely retarded - *technically* the "Sega for the 90's"-stickered games are also variants, but they're so impossibly hard to identify via auction, and there are no other differences except for the stupid sticker, and maybe a copyright or trademark on the back of the manual.

Most people don't consider them part of a "complete" set, but you can drive yourself mad trying to collect every single version and variation of things like this. If you think that's bad, there are an insane amount of variants for the Genesis and SNES (stuff like Castlevania Bloodlines Konami Clamshell vs. Majesco Cardboard  version 1 vs. Majesco Cardboard version 2...et al).

I decided to draw the line at the full NTSC set and "official" variants, and call it a day, haha.

Hahaha.. Ya goosebumps voice changer/screamer and that other thing is called a europet from 1990, whatever that is, but it is f*cked up looking and will look great on my desk at work

Edit: ha it might be a dog toy, hahaha

[SuperGrafx]

Arrived home yesterday evening and found this at my doorstep.



Thank you so much beamer!! I can't believe I finally own one of these systems, and with all the games! 

Wow, that's great! Instant collection!
Now you just need that Darius game that's enhanced for SuperGrafx.

Are those Neo Geo carts expensive?  That is a system I have always been wanting to dabble in, but just never did.

They appear to be loose MVS carts in Shock Boxes.  Shock Troopers is like $25 and Windjammers is like $30 loose.

That SF2 turbo kit is the sexy as hell

And it's totally possible to make fake stickers and make your own variants, same with the Sonic, Golden Axe Warrior, Spiderman and Strider UPCs.

Not sure what world you are in where you find $25 shock troopers and $30 windjammers but sounds like a great place to be!

Yeah Bernie they are MVS carts, these are just cases made up for them and the are HUGE. MVS carts are a lot more expensive these days but you can pick up a multi cart if you wanna get into neo games and still use real hardware

[Mathius]

One of these days when I am no longer feeling up people's dirty filthy cars I'll be able to afford me a CMVS so I can partake in some MVS action. Until then I'll just keep playing my non-expanding AES library loaded with commons. Which, sadly, has been ruined by shitty resellers along with the more popular and expensive AES titles. Thanks a alot Ebay!
