Today I got these items (plus one extra that arrived during the week):
1. Muchi Muchi Pork & Pink Sweets 'Limited Edition' [XBOX 360, NTSC-J, Brand New & Sealed]
NOTES: The 'bank manager special'. I'm actually worried about depreciation by opening this fecking thing.
2. Shooting Gameside Vol. 4 [Book, Brand New]
NOTES: Regular dose of STG goodness. No mention of the interview though, GRR!
3. Ibara: The Lunatic 'Insanity DVD Limited Edition' [DVD, NTSC-J, Brand New & Sealed]
NOTES: Limited because it comes with the 92 page strategy guide/art book. A thing of beauty. Standard edition is just the 2 disc set.
4. WipeOut Pulse [PSP, PAL, Brand New & Sealed]
NOTES: As mentioned elsewhere. Picked this up for €1 today in Peats!
5. Philosoma [PS1, NTSC-J, Used]
NOTES: Didn't actually order this. Seller gave it to me as a bonus. Looks a good game!
6. Darius Burst AC EX 'Tote' Bag [Brand New]
NOTES: Again, didn't order this, got given it as a freebie treat. Excellent treat it is too!
7. Saturn/PS2/N64 to USB Adapter [Brand New & Sealed]
NOTES: After one of these for ages. This particular Mayflash model must be in print again as it was out of stock everywhere for ages. Want this for using my Virtua Stick Pro on my laptop for Steam and doujin titles.
Also got some cool flyers featuring a lot of PS Vita stuff and a cool Armored Core 5 flyer.

OK so I called round to the chap I bought all the final fantasy stuff off. He said I could come in and see what he had and work out a deal. Really nice fella aswell who moved into a new house. So I picked up this stuff from him, had a load of Neon Genesis stuff but I'm not really into it.
Anyway
So happy to get that Monster Squad dvd! I love that film!
But yeah, fairly happy with this haul. Everything cost me 150, which is pretty good for some of the stuff thats there. Sword of Vermilion and FS III are the only ones without manuals
Since I already have Alien Soldier I dunno what to do with this one now, I'm sorry but I think I'll take a trip to the bay with it

Have you had a chance to test this chap out yet? When you do can you let me know if the Namco PS1 stick works with it? Guessing it should but just to be sure. Thanks. 0 -

Not yet, I was away from the gaf until today. I'll unpack it and give it a test run tonight. Make a video of it using the Namco PS1 and Virtua Stick Pro sticks for ye. 0 -

Excellent thanks.
No probs. I've just finished editing the video. I split it in to three segments.
1. An intro and product overview.
2. PS1 Namco stick demo.
3. Sega Saturn stick demo.
It's just rendering now so should be online later tonight. In answer to your question though, yes the Namco stick works flawlessly. The build quality of the product is also of a very high standard... which is odd considering.
I've no hesitation in recommending buying one. Very impressive product.0 -

I think my one had that problem as well at some stage. I cant remember the fix but it was something simple.
I have all the original manuals and disks if you ever need them.

Cheers for making that Pyongyang. Are you using Win7 64-bit and did it take long to arrive from that HK seller? Just ordered one now.
Yep I use Windows 7 x64 Ultimate Editon. Works Absolutey flawlessly. Seems the buttons are mapped out absolutely perfectly too. All one after the other, no jumbled mappings. I'm quite impressed with it compared to the two PS1 to USB adapters I have. They are significantly cheaper, but you need to use a key mapper, like Joy2Key and it's ilk, for every controller, which is cumbersome to say the least.
The shop I got mine from is well-known, they've been around for years so you shouldn't run in to problems. I think it took about a week, or just over, for it to arrive. They sell them on eBay too, but last time I looked the price was the same. I haven't found them on sale anywhere else (in stock at least as they carry the old model).
Well worth a purchase if you don't like the EX2 stick and want to use something else. Shame they don't make a PC Engine to USB adapter though... 0 -

Got a few bits from Infideals in the post this morning
Looking forward to a run off Micro Machines to see if it's as playable and fun as I remember, Bart vs the Space Mutants is a stinker though. And I got Mega Games solely for Columns, which I was addicted to on Gamegear.
Also picked up this purely for nostlagia, reading it this morning and I'm 9 years old all over again, reading it while I wait for my game to load. Bliss.

Sometimes when I visit Limerick I end up getting something other than mugged. Got a combination of late birthday presents and early valentines day presents from the lovely Sera. She got me some wonderswan games, namely, Buffers Evolution, Turntablist DJ Wars and some truck driving game I don't know the name of Also picked up Apollo Justice on the DS in Game Limerick. Only need And Justice for All to get. Also got myself an unboxed Klonoa for the wonderswan when it finally appeared on ebay for a decent price.

So all you've to do now is make it back through Limerick without getting pilfered. Survive a two hour train ride with other people, & then smuggle the goods past Sauron.

Well I doubt most Limerick people know what a wonderswan is since Call of Stabbie isn't on it, the M7 express bus is cheap and almost as fast as the overpriced train and Sauron is off in Spain on holiday so everything has come up retr0!
Also forgot to add the best thing that Sera got me. She made me a cute custom made box filled with cooling pads for my head just like Arino uses in Game Centre CX on particularly tough games. I think she knows how much trouble Castlevania on the NES is giving me!

Hehe, the sound of your voice totally makes the gear porn sound that bit more pornographic when you're speaking!
Unfortunately, the Irish accent totally does not make for a good broadcasting voice on the other hand.0 -

Therefore Ciderman had no friends in the arcade and he stood there with big tears in his eyes looking for someone, anyone to play SoR with him... anyone that was old enough not to make him look like he was a creepy old guy playing with children.
Batman Returns though was great because it was one player. Let the kids have their fun on Simpsons arcade and X-Men.
It's no arcade for old men.
............Speaking of the Simpsons Arcade.
It was released for X-Box 360 Arcade on Wednesday.
It scored 3.0 on gamespot...

Despite the fact it plays exactly like the original!

Blasphemous? I call it downright treachery! To the gallows with you knave! :eek:
Actually, Darius II on the Mega Drive is a really good conversion, certainly it was the best home edition that is until the Saturn edition was released. The Saturn edition is pretty much arcade perfect, even coming with different screen modes to try and compensate for the fact nobody likely has an 870,000 inch television to play it on.
Darius II on the Mega Drive also has one of my favourite cover art designs ever. Ahh that legendary Hawk! 0 -
