I have a complete copy of Shenmue I might be able to let go of, depending on what's being offered...

I found a complete copy at the shop for $15, what were you looking to get, maybe we could trade?

I was just looking at your collection, to see if I could make you an offer on anything. And truthfully, there's not much there I don't already have that's not Pokémon (I don't play Pokémon).

[torvez]

That's cool, I just started collecting, so I don't have much yet.
Thanks for looking!

Sorry we couldn't make a deal.

yeah, Poker Night's a good deal right now!  looks like it should be fun, and I've been wanting to try out Don't Starve for a long time now

I think I got a good deal guys!
I had an ad on Craigslist searching for Saturn games.
Somebody offered me these a long time ago and told me to make a cash offer, but I had none.
Today, I got an email from her saying she'd take $20 for all of them!
Still no cash on me. And then, just when I was going to say I can't, someone gave me an offer on some worthless old computer parts!
Got $40 from the junk!
Got a pretty damn good deal (I'd have paid $20 for Astal alone)!
Ended up taking the remaining $20 to a shop that had retro games for 30% off and got
Maximum Carnage - Genesis
Sonic Spinball
and Castlevania - N64 (I'm coming for you, Scott!  )

I was out of town again today for work.  Went into another game store as I do.  I found Astro Warrior/Hang On and Choplifter on the SMS for $7 each.  Both were boxed and Astro Warrior and Hang On had the manual.  This has been pretty awesome.

That's a pretty nice Saturn starter set of games. Congrats!

Thanks! Just wish the awful long boxes came with them!
Cover Project, here I come!
So happy to play Astal!
I'm not very content with the games I got from the shop, I'm not sure they were worth my $20.
Oh well, live and learn I guess.

Honestly, I think cover project cases would be > original cases anyhow. The chances of getting a complete Saturn collection with totally unbroken/not cracked cases would be about the same as finding SE in the wild.

If I was collecting US Saturn games I would definitely use the cover project. You can find loose Saturn games cheap. People will have a CD book full of them and not be able to sell them. Moreover, the cover project covers look NICE! There's a part of me that still wants to have Sega CD, Saturn, Dreamcast, Xbox, 360 games all on a shelf. It would look clean and sharp.

Yeah, they look pretty amazing, next time I get some cash I'm going to kinkos or office max to print some covers.
The only thing is that the Saturn manuals are too long to fit in a DVD case.
Also, instead of using universal game cases for n64 games, I was planning on using those black plastic vhs cases.
