Classic Video Games / Just got an Xbox... what games should I get

« on: March 28, 2013, 05:46:43 pm »

My friend gave me his old original Xbox but there were no games and now I have to buy some. I completely ignored the Xbox platform when it came out so I have no idea what is available for it.
I plan on picking up Halo 1 and 2 since i've never experienced them but other than that I don't know what else to look for. I'm really into JRPGs but am willing to try anything if its a great story and good price. So I ask you for your recommendations; What are some good exclusive titles that I can pick up for a good price.

Classic Video Games / Whos buying a Retron 5?!

« on: March 24, 2013, 02:32:12 pm »

Hyperkin recently announced their newest console will have a GBA slot and a Famicon slot making it the Retron 5.
It's got HDMI and will upscale all your retro games to 720p!
I've been using the Retron 3 for a while now and am really looking forward to this new one.

Modern Video Games / DS game shrink wrapping

« on: March 19, 2013, 01:30:50 am »

I just purchased a "New sealed" copy of Radiant Historia and when it came in I noticed that it had generic heat sealed shrink wrap seams. Every DS game i bought before this had nice folded seams. My intention was to leave it sealed but at this point im not even sure if the game is in there...   Is there any chance that this is legit, or did someone reseal this copy?

Marketplace / DMG-01 Gameboy with Backlight

« on: March 08, 2013, 12:18:38 am »

Hello! Im looking to sell my DMG-01 Gameboy with custom backlight. This unit has been fully cleaned and a new lens has been installed. There is a small scratch in the backlight itself in the bottom left hand corner, you should be able to see it in the photo. Also the camera makes the lcd look a little washed out when it isnt. Please make me an offer if you are interested.

Classic Video Games / Strange ebay find? or just crap?

« on: January 16, 2013, 07:09:23 pm »

I just got a copy of X-Men on the NES from ebay. The label and cart are in pretty good condition, however when I go to play the game, it's Double Dragon II. Anyone ever hear of anything like this? The seller replaced the game, but I still have the weird X-men/Double Dragon II cart just laying around. I have no idea why someone would want to swap the board in the cart.
