If you want to just send me that art book, feel free  :P



I also already had Prime 1 2 and 3, but I figure I'll probably just turn those into trade fodder now.

stopped at a couple local game stores and picked up a few games I didn't have.
All games cart only but all are in excellent shape and cost me about $15 for all 3.

"Happy game hunting!!!"

I got a VGA Box for my Dreamcast and an Xploder cheat device to boot certain games into VGA... and play imports
A VGA Box does wonders for the Dreamcast! Welcome to the club :D.

Did you get a Hanzo out of curiosity? Here's a link to one if you've never heard of it. It's great. The scanlines really make everything smooth.

I been meaning to pick one of these up.  What does the extra scanliner do?

No I wanted to but sold out and wasn't going to wait anymore. I got the Retrobit one which works great. The scanliner is just a filter to make it look like it's on a CRT TV.  Sonic's ultimate genesis collection has an option for that if you want to see how it works
Like redblaze said, it really helps smooth out some of the jagged edges you get playing on a modern TV that wasn't present in CRT TVs due to the natural scan lines.

Sorry you didn't end up getting a Hanzo, it can definitely be a bit of a wait between batches. I'm waiting for him to get the Kenzei back in stock. I just got an XRGB Mini upscaler a week or two ago and I'm itching to get my Dreamcast hooked up to it  ;D

Nice NEO GEO score! Makes me sad though since my system just went out on me.

Had been searching around online on ways to fix it, but with a newborn in the house not sure when I will have time to actually try anything.

Wow, I can't believe you found that AES and all of those games in the wild! That's pretty wicked man; I still need to find a reasonable price to get one of those although thats not gonna happen anytime soon.

Congrats!  I'm so jealous :)  I've wanted an AES since I first drooled over them in the pages of EGM in the early 90's.  Where did you find it?  Get a good price on it?

Nice, welcome to the Neo Geo AES Collecting club, games for this console is stupid expensive, in fact my most ever paid for one game was for this console. ($300) I have about 70 games myself. I'd love to know the story behind you getting this even if it's I saw a lot on ebay and got it all for $500. BTW in case you didn't know, if you got a US system it will play "most" all Japanese carts in English. If it's a Japanese system then US carts will be in Japanese. Or is it a Japanese system with hacked bios and does both? Great pick up no matter how you got it. 

Turf the day I find a Neo Geo AES lot at a garage sale, I'll be dancing the whole way home especially if there's games in there I don't own. I'm shocked when a local game store gets something Neo Geo in, I've only seen 3 games ever at my local stores, and a few in the downtown Chicago area.
"Happy game hunting!!!"

:) I sold prime 2 and 3 when I pre-ordered trilogy but I kept 1 because I love the title screen. Now I wish I'd kept the other 2.

These arrived today from the ebays:



Only Zero Mission and Other M to go and I'll own every Metroid game!

I just got Issue #2 too.  It was the last of the NES era for me... I think.  It may be time to do an inventory.

Very nice! I've come across the HotD 3 game a few times. But never have I run across a light-gun for the original XBox. Do you have one?

And sweet find on those Nintendo Power mags! The Castlevania cover is awesome! I loved the first few covers of the first few issues due to those cool photo covers.

The Zelda one was really cool, too:
