Not Turbo but I was so dumbfounded by this listing that I had to share it. That game? $95? Really? I mean, it blew my mind when I was young. But that doesn't mean that it warrants blowing my wallet on it 25 years later. Sheesh.

Uh what? I got that game boxed for like $2 not even a year ago. What kind of crack smoke are these people smoking? It looks like someone wants 13 grand for a complete magical chase. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Magical-Chase-TurboGrafx-16-TG16-COMPLETE-CIB-MINT-HOLY-GRAIL-NTSC-U-/311012474307?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item4869c9bdc3

According to this guy, yes:


Oh wow, I wish I did, some a$$hole reseller sold me CIB Valis II, cib Valis III, CIB Ys book I and II, CIB Legendary Axe II and CIB Bonk three for $1,100a little while ago. XD


This is why "a$$hole resellers" hold out forever, waiting for that one sucker to meet their profit projections.

Four of those complete aren't easy to come by, and a CIB Bonk 3 is getting up there in price, it was just some local guy, five mint games like that can't compare to nearly $200 for a Blazing Lazers. XD

I never stated it was a sweet dea lol, could have been better, could have been worse, I was just starting out a few months ago, the attitude with some of you people are f*cked, if a games going for seventy on eBay, and I buy one for fifty, I'll still have f*ckers like you going on about how retarded I was because you searched for months and got it five bucks cheaper, the point is I got good games, I'm enjoying them very much, and you guys are blowing shit out of proportion constantly because my first ever pick up I could have saved money.

I say we scrap book this as your first noob mistake.


I think mine (on these forums apart from my grammar spelling and so forth) was when I posted that I bought two sealed Cosmic Fantasy games...


Then I called it a "preverbal virgin" that I plan to use as trade bait for other TG-16 stuff.


I think Nully had a few choice words to exemplify my statements.
