Makaimura was about 30-35 I think. I got it from a site called Gamebaz, looks a bit dodgy and took them about a week to post it but it arrived today and it's mint in box. Worth checking them out. They have it now for 50 dollars but it was there for 32 last week, cheaper than what I paid. It seems the prices fluctuate. They had Klonoa for 32 dollars as well but looks like the price went up this week.
Nice find of Pirates of Dark Water. It is indeed really rare and one of the hardest MD games to find!

My new Neo Geo Stick arrived.
I already have a full size AES stick and I wanted something else as a second controller.
I have had, and sold, Neo Geo CD pads, nice and all but not arcade-like enough.
The Neo Geo CD Controller Pro seemed like a happy compromise and cost around the €30 mark, with shipping.
Also, re the shipping, I went for the cheaper shipping option and had it in 10 days after purchase, not too bad!
I've waited longer for items from the UK!

My mam unfortunately managed to intercept these today but managed to save them:
Wonderswan games:
Makaimura arrived mint in box, was expecting it to arrive loose so that is a nice surprise! Tane wo Maku Tori is like new and in the tradition of great wonderswan boxes comes with what I can only describe and like a childrens book with the hard almost cardboard pages and is really cute. The pics here do it better justice: http://kimimisblog.blogspot.com/2011/09/tane-wo-maku-tori.html
Saturn games:
Wachenroder, Soul Hackers and Devil Summoner. Yes three japanese RPGS in japanese. However in the case of Wachenroder there's a full script translation on gamefaqs which makes the game understandable. Also it's mint and includes spine card, a fantastic artbook and promo inserts. It's a late Saturn game so interesting to see there is a Dreamcast advert in the case. A tenner for one of the saturns best strategy RPGs in mint condition? I'm not complaining.
As for Soul Hackers and Devil Summoner, I've no such excuse but they were dirt cheap. Soul Hackers packaging is really nice and has an advert for a Shin Megami Tensei card game and even includes an exclusive card for the card game... I better not start collecting them. Anyway maybe when I run out of SMT games to play I can bumble through these. Either that, learn japanese or wait for the fan translation and learning japanese seems to be the one that will take the least amount of time.
Also got Jam with the Band and Miles Edgeworth Investigations but they aren't really retro.

This chap arrived this morning, box and stick in excellent condition. I've become quite fond of the Namco stick lately, it gets daily Raiden use/abuse. :pac:
The seller also included this NES plaque thing, not sure if it has a specific use other than looking nice. Says 2008 on the back so maybe it's from the Nintendo shop or something. Nice surprise all the same.

You got two Namco PS1 sticks now? Very cool!
I have just the one but it's probably my second favourite console stick (after my beloved PC Engine XE-1 Pro HE).
It's just a great all-rounder. Well built. Great stick and buttons. Works with my PS1's, PS2's and with Joy2Key it works on my laptop for Steam, PC and doujin titles via a PS>USB converter.
Superb stick. Well worthy of a solid 2nd place on my personal list of console sticks. The XE-1 Pro HE lacks the compatibility, but it's feature set destroys every other console stick in the entire history of everything. Hence it's 1st place.
If the XE-1 Pro HE didn't exist, the Namco PS1 stick would be my favouritestest.

Yep the XE-1 Pro HE is super rare. Took me an age to actually find one. Lo and behold when I did the thing was BNIB, never opened. Struck gold, well worth the wait!
Ah I'd snap up that other PS1 stick but I'm paying for my Japan flights this month and putting in a beefy order for 'stuff' so alas I cannot purchase said stick.
Go get that PCB! 0 -

The rotating button setup is genius and I'm suprised more sticks haven't featured this.0 -

I picked up one of these, boxed and sealed, and it has the rotating button array.
Quickshot Conqueror 3
They also make a Snes version, the Conqueror 2
Of course, neither stick is going to win any awards in build quality and I seriously doubt many SFII competitions have seen them cross the threshold.0 -

It's a console arcade stick designed by God himself. Manufactured in Tahiti. I employ a team of slaves to fan it with palm leaves and feed it grapes.
On Saturdays I take it food shopping. Sunday's we take long walks in the park and paint Hummel figurines before abruptly morphing in to a sitcom clipshow where my XE-1 Pro HE spills cola on me, I look angry for a moment then we both laugh. The montage closes with my XE-1 Pro HE sat on my shoulders as we walk along Howth pier eating ice cream and sharing a joke.
*sigh* <3
My JB King Super Famicom stick has a rotate and that weird cart slot thing. 0 -

Sorry man, my nerd factor is obviously zero.
Which means I'm super cool yes? :pac:
No idea what it is, looks like something out of Star Trek or something.
/Edit: Lol ok Doctor Who. Been over 20 years since I've seen an episode. The Tardis and Daleks are about all I remember.0 -

It's the current doctors sonic screwdriver.
I'm a big Doc Who fan, and also a big Predator fan, hence I do things like this:

What did you make of the newer film, Predators?0 -

Surely though it was some form of redemption after the god-awful Predator 2? Are you eagerly awaiting Prometheus also?
All joking aside I did enjoy it but wished they'd done a lot more with it.
I'm looking forward to Prometheus all right.
As for Predator 2, that movie is almost as unforgivable as the pants Danny Glover wore in it. Go and find the movie or some scenes from it and look, just look at his pants.
Actually just did a quick search on youtube:
