New Get City, post here when you get something new

Sometimes it's worth taking a chance on eBay:



Finally picked this up after 5 years of hunting for it. This game goes for insane prices from Japan, I only saw one copy over there for North of 400 euro. What some people don't realise is it got a very limited German release. It's much harder to find but much cheaper and was about 80 euros about a year ago. Then Jeremy Parish did his Gameboy World Series and mentions this game a lot there and on retronauts and the price is on the up so decided it was time to finally get my hands on it. Before I kept having such bad luck, last minute snipes spoiled by the seller forgetting to allow international bidding and other crap but I finally own it.

You can also get it on the EU 3DS virtual console but that is for peasants!

My local charity shop has Red Dead Revolver on PS2 and I forgot to run back and buy it after visiting the bank. I never played the game in my life and I have been so curious to try it for years. The game has never surfaced anywhere, not even in CeX and I won't buy it online. My next visit shall be next week and it better still be there :P

Will post a pic if I get it!

Thought Revolver was kind of meh to be honest, another kind of meh rockstar game. Was surprised how good Redemption was considering how meh revolver was.

It certainly looked meh to me back when I first saw it in a magazine article (oh those were the days). Probably is completely meh. But, meh. It'll be nice to have in my collection, seeing as I never got to see the likes of it locally, ever.

My controller fetish continues.. Negcon new in box and a Ascii Grip



Grip needs a good clean though, as its a onehanded controller I can't be sure what the previous owner was doing with their other hand while using it..

Update on that NTSC-J dreamcast, your man said he was playing it fine on the Irish power supply, Do the power supplies look any different from eacother, ie could I open it up and confirm visually that the power supply is the PAL one ?

Last few bits arrived last week, Seireki 1999 and Shadow of the Tusk.




Picked up Double Shienryu and joined the ranks of the perverted with The Daibijin.



Mr Driller G and Ciderman furnished me with a network adapter at the weekend. I'm still on the hunt for a suitable hard drive.

Thanks, I get most of my stuff from a guy in Japan, most of his stuff is very reasonable. He tracked Tusk down for me, the cards are still sealed, I also got 1999 and Shienryu from him. I must post a link in the sales link thread. The rest came from Yamatoku on EBay.

I see you're moving the SNES on, fair play. I have a SFC in work that I don't use, it's fairly discoloured but it works okay, may need a clean though. There may be an empty SNES box lurking in my attic too. I will check tomorrow to make sure it's still there and you can collect them on Friday if you want them.

Got some nice gets arriving tomorrow, here's a clue to what they are :pac:

The Sniper 2?

Steve X2

Well, I guess a good few of us have this by now :0)

I've promised myself that even if I get a WiiU, I'll never get any Amiibos, because once I start I'd be worse for collecting than Ryo Hazuki & Ash Ketchum combined.

So is shadow of the Tusk any good? The art is very reminiscent of Ghouls N'Ghosts.

I didn't even get a chance to try it out, tried 1999 and it plays really well. There are some nice lighting effects going on, and it plays nice and smoothly, possibly better than the ps1 version. I'm a few hours into Chronotrigger on the snes and want to keep going on that at the moment, started and stopped before but I'm determined to give it a full play through this time. If I'm not working too late I will try Tusk, as far as I know most of the menu's are in English.

Was on the CEX site there and they have Yakuza for just a 6 quid, albeit about a fiver shipping, so lash a few copies of FIFA 05 into your basket to make up for it.
Snagged KOF XI (never seen this in the shops when it was out) and CVS2 for myself, and 2 bogey 3rd party controllers because I'm too cheap for dualshocks
