Classic Video Games / Re: What are your most wanted or top ten wanted Sega Genesis games

« on: July 21, 2023, 05:45:35 pm »

Ooof, I'm a total Mega Drive/Genesis fanboy, and still forever kicking myself for not picking up the big wants on my list when they were relatively sane in terms of price. I'm in Scotland but I've got games on my wants list from all regions, so I guess as it is right now:

1: Twinkle Tale (JP)
2: Pulseman (JP)
3: YuYu Hakusho (JP)
4: Spiderman & Venom: Separation Anxiety (PAL)
5: Dragonball Z (PAL)
6: Humans (US)
7: Landstalker (PAL)
8: El Viento (US)
9: Cadash (JP)
10: Spiderman: Animated Series (PAL)

There's so many more on the list but this is just off the top of my head.

Got A Short Hike for Switch and the Super Rare Mixtape 3 from Super Rare Games recently. I think that's about it.

General / Re: What console is still on your wish-list?

A 32X. I know they're rubbish, I know the good games are horribly expensive, but the Sega Fanboy in me just desperately wants one.

Also some sort of PC Engine Turbo Duo system. I've got a GT (and a PAL TurboGrafx) but I want one I can plug into my TV, dammit!

Other than that, there's just a bunch of different console variants that I have on my wants list. And there is a lot of them I want.

Records. And to a lesser extent, tapes, CDs and MiniDiscs.

General / Re: Do Cheap Priced, Fake Games That Seem To Work/Play Matter To You?

I do have a couple of dodgy pirate games that I keep around for novelty value, however the rise of the fakes masquerading as real is getting really annoying as a big fan of Mega Drive/Genesis collecting. Sure, I'm glad to have a repro cart of Pulseman (that is obviously a repro and was sold as one) and I do love my terrible Russian pirate copy of the unreleased Itchy & Scratchy game (complete with weird small box and truly terrible/amazing artwork) but if they're pretending to be authentic copies then that's considerably more annoying.

Video Game Database Discussion / Chiptune albums on a cart?

« on: August 14, 2018, 08:05:08 pm »

Just wondering if adding chiptune albums on cartridge would be acceptable? Because I guess they're technically homebrew?
