Not turbo but yea... http://www.ebay.com/itm/RetroUSB-AVS-HDMI-Nintendo-Entertainment-System-NES-Prototype-/191946138624?&_trksid=p2056016.m2518.l4276


But the HD NES kit and Analouge can do 1080 where this can only do 720?


The NES originally output at 240 so wouldn't it be better to output at 720 since its an even amount of additional lines being scaled (3x) compared to 1080 (4.5x)? I don't know squat about that stuff but it seems like that would make more sense..

$54.44 for 25 foam blocks from original TG-16 boxes, and there's more than 10 available.  :lol:

That Turbolot is sketchy city, but the last Bonk 3 CIB sold at $900 open auction (pretty Minty) and Soldier Blade sold at $700 in about 11 minutes.  Considering that is $1600 right there, $2k doesn't seem like a stretch for the rest of the lot?

Way higher than I'd pay personally but I bet someone would bite at the opening bid.

Soldier Blade is not legitimately selling for $700. Shill bidding and scams, sure.

But not legit.

Sorry if a tad old, but I also find it hard to believe. The last boxed soldier blade I seen on ebay sold for $225 this past winter.
Edit... wait, I just looked at ebay sold...$1200 for a sealed one. Jesus maybe someone really did pay $700.
Who are these ppl. that pay these prices anyways?

I see the next round of retard pricing is up on Adventure Island and Neutopia 2 now, weee!

It's like these clowns make zero effort to check completed listings before posting their crap. "Why buy a copy in better condition for half the price when you can buy mine instead!"


Condition:    
Very Good: An item that is used but still in very good condition. No damage to the jewel case or item cover, no scuffs, scratches, cracks, or holes. The cover art and liner notes are included. The VHS or DVD box is included. The video game instructions and box are included. The teeth of disk holder are undamaged. Minimal wear on the exterior of item. No skipping on CD/DVD. No fuzzy/snowy frames on VHS tape. See the seller’s listing for full details and description of any imperfections.

Heh, it definitely ain't me.

A new Ghost Manor for $1207.04 shipped..... and he's got four of 'em.  My offer of $100 shipped was declined, so I'm upping it to $102.50.  Wish me luck!

I traded some of my sealed TurboChips, including Ghost Manor, here for loose copies + misc. Guess I could've traded Ghost Manor for a second copy of Magical Chase. :roll:

Dang, $102.50 didn't fly.  Time to go the other way and try $97.50.  :mrgreen:

Shoot, I crapped out and ebay won't let you make more than three offers.

I guess I'll have to keep looking for ze Manor von Ghosts.
