You are a pinball machine owner, you can call them flippers now.

Now for the disclaimer...my response is tongue in cheek and not meant to sound sardonic. I'm more bewildered than anything as my post on that site is near identical to this one sans pictures (which thanks btw, I'll be sure to supply the imgur link on that post). On that site you replied to that thread with "No pictures, no buy" and yet there are photos on this site but instead of possibly working out a deal here, I'm getting put on point for missing a small detail that no one else seems to be following in their posts either. 

I saw that post before seeing this one. Also, I often say that there. But there is not here. So my post here is a friendly reminder, try your best to follow the market rules. Oh the day when we need to strictly enforce vgcollect market rules, best stay ahead of the curve as they say.

Add [KO] for Korea I'm guessing

It is [KR] for South Korea. I will update the first post.

I dunno, the listing on GameFaqs for South Korean games have it as [KO] They could be wrong though, I have no idea personally.

Well KR is legit the TLD for Republic of Korea (South Korea) besides, we already use [KR] for Korean releases for some games, like this PS2 category:
http://vgcollect.com/browse/ps2kr

KO is the TLD of Kosovo from OpenNIC/New Nations but has no actual designation in the "official" ccTLD list.

Hello Hikaru Ichijyo, the market rules say you need something with your name on it in the picture!

A thrift store is a good description of a dump store

or Garage Sale Store

Such as for me, a flea market is "the junk dealers" like I'm on a Star Wars planet or something.

PSN I won't bother putting because I haven't signed in for a long time.
Steam is Tripredacus

Which seems to be partially down right now.

Too many hobbies, not enough time. I'd say 3-4 times a week I will do 3-4 hours per day.

Classic Video Games / Re: Classic Video Game Soundtracks?

« on: March 21, 2016, 06:50:39 pm »

I know that Sega released game soundtracks on CD called Sega Tunes. I have one, X-Men 2 Clone Wars.

PS: egad, I didn't know these were expensive.

EDIT: Oh you can find some sites that have uploaded video game music tracks. One I used to get tracks from was Hardcore Gaming 101.

Yes I have confusion about the PSN categories to begin with. For example, I have only a PS3 and I can buy Vita and PSP games with it on its market, even though I have neither of those systems.

Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 Portable

http://vgcollect.com/item/58566
http://vgcollect.com/item/18203 - wrong category
http://vgcollect.com/item/58568 - also wrong category

I do not have an understanding of these categories to make the correct decision.

http://vgcollect.com/item/46169 might be a fake cover. If so it can be merged with http://vgcollect.com/item/28525

The PEGI-3 one doesn't appear to be correct. It could be one of those cases where a country's release gets a different PEGI rating, such as some games in Portugal get a PEGI-4.

I put the picture from 28525 onto 46169. Both games you put are in different categories. I think that 28525 has the wrong front artwork if it is a digital game, it should not have the physical package artwork. But I do not know how this shows up on PSN. It needs that image. If no one knows, we can remove the front image.
