Another Super Haul!

It seems as if all I am doing recently is posting about massive shopping sprees… I promise I will get back to indepth posts regarding retro gaming soon, but at the moment I have to use what little time I have to get out there and snap up these bargains before this plays runs dry! I cannot express in words the feeling when I walk in there, and even more stock is being added – this place is a gold mine at the moment!

So what did I get this time? Well, everything I could get my hands on within 20 minutes is the answer. πŸ˜€

Saturn Games:

I cannot believe the bargains I am getting from this place!! They have workers putting gear out as fast as it’s going off the shelves though. In fact while I was there this time, there were guys just waiting with baskets as things were being put up. All those PCE HuCards were grabbed even before they hit the shelves – the woman putting them up was a little shocked as I didn’t even look at them carefully before throwing them in the basket.

Ahhh Japan, you’ve done it again. πŸ˜€

Another Day, Another Game Console

Well, Japan does it again! Recently it seems that every trek is yielding gear that I rarely see, and to top it off the prices have been great. πŸ˜€

So what have I come back with this time? Well before getting into that, I should tell you that what you see bellow is only a small part. I did end up buying more games as well, but as I put them with the other 500 or so I bought recently, I can’t tell which were from the last lot, and which were from this lot.

Anyway, some gear:

A V-Saturn (can’t believe I got another Narf!), Virtual-On Twin Stick, and Saturn Virtua Cop set.

The Saturn would have to be the pick out of the above gear. It was a really lucky find.

Now onto the rest…. Managed to get a Gameboy Light, and for those of you that don’t know what this is, it’s basically a regular Gameboy, but it has a backlight built into it. I believe these are a Japan exclusive? Got a few Famicom Keyboards too – these allow the user to create software to run on their Famicoms. I am on the lookout for a Tapedeck for the Famicom if anyone reading this has one they’d like to sell/give away. πŸ˜‰

So like I said, there are actually more games included with this run which aren’t shown, but even without those pictured above I seem to have cleaned up. To Sean @ Retro Otaku, you have to hurry over my friend – at this rate I will have emptied these places out!! πŸ˜€

Some Good News and….. – Part 4

So the final day of the Golden Week Holidays has come (which isn’t actually a full week if you’re wondering), and another car load of games and gear arrives at home.

My brain is totally fried from going through thousands (yes, thousands) of games, picking out which I want, then carting baskets back and forth. It’s a hard life for a game hoarder in Japan. ?

As I thought, this shop did in fact put out another heap of games today, but I definitely cleaned them out in relation to NeoGeoCD, PCE, and 3DO the past few days as there weren’t any new ones today.

Anyway, now to today’s load!

Dreamcast.
I was pretty wrapped to find MvC 1 and 2 there today, plus I got another copy of ChuChuRocket just to make sure Frank can have one.

Saturn.
Just a few gems.

More PCE stuff, NeoGeo controller, some PS1 disks, and a few other grabs.

All up, this holiday break has been freaking amazing for gear! The wife is freaking slightly, but I have reassured her that at least the triples will be sold off. ?

Some Good News and….. – Part 3

Well…. I went back, and they had new stuff out!!! As the shelves are emptied from frenzied hoarders, it seems they are putting more and more stock out. Golden week holidays have never been so good for this old retro head.

I don’t know if this is the end for this store or not, but I am really making the most of their last dying breath if it is. πŸ˜€

So today’s haul…..

The Dreamcast.

The PCFX, Saturn, PS1, MegaDrive, and a few other bits and pieces.

Some loose PCE HuCards.

NeoGeo AES with some games.

dscf8707

NeoGeo Front Loader CD with games included. I have wanted one of these for ages!!

So all up another great haul! Am I going again tomorrow? Yep, you bet your arse I am! πŸ˜€

Some Good News, and…… – Part 2

So as you know, yesterday I managed to score myself quite a large haul of retro gaming goodness. The only trouble was that the store I got them from seems to be abandoning their retro gaming section – this totally sucks, but I am not here to talk about at the moment.

I am here to show you the games that I got yesterday all spread out! πŸ˜€

First off here are the Saturn games. Not a huge lot, but there are a few that I didn’t have before.

sega-saturn

Next up, Dreamcast. Some interesting titles in this bunch, but the pick would have to be the three Pop’n’Music disks for me.

dreamcast

Sega MegaCD. I love getting my hands on MegaCD games for some reason. I think it’s because I wanted one so badly back in the day, but I sort of missed the boat and jumped straight to the PS1.

sega-megacd

Loose NEC HuCards. I was a little surprised by how many doubles of the HuCards I snagged – that’s what happens when it’s a feeding frenzy I guess.

nec-hucard-loose

Now to the cased HuCards.

nec-hucard-cased

NEC SuperCDRoms. Fighting Street made its way in there for some reason, but that should have been in the regular CDROM photo. Turns out there are two Fighting Streets though.

nec-super-cdrom

NEC CDROMs.

NEC Arcade and one lonely SuperGraphics card.

nec-arcade-and-supergraphx

NeoGeo CDs. I am always asked to get these so I bought pretty much all they had left. The ones I missed out on that I saw last week though will give me nightmares for months though!!! πŸ™

neogeo-cd-snk

Panasonic 3DO. I was really hoping to find a stray RoadRash in the frenzy, but it wasn’t ot be. I did expand the 3DO collection pretty well with this bunch though.

panasonic-3do

Playstation 1 and Playstation 2. Some great titles in this lot – specially for the PS1. *Click on the thumbs to enlarge.

playstation playstation-2-ps2

Missed these yesterday when I took the pics. A Gameboy Pikachu printer, some NeoGeo Pocket games, and a lonely VirtualBoy cart.

Finally another one that didn’t show in the pics yesterday – an Epoch Hang-On. I actually got this for HairballNick as I thought he might like to have a matching pair. Let me know if you’re keen Nick.

epoch-hangon

Well, it was fun actually having the time to dig through this latest haul today. I must have been glazed over judging by the amount of doubles I picked up though. I am sure there are those of you out there thinking six SFII HuCards are a bit much, but then I am sure there are those of you out there that are thinking why stop at only six. πŸ˜€
