Not sure if i should mention the place on this site, but on a certain auction web site, i recently picked up a NES, 10 games and light gun for a *tiny* 30 pounds.
With pleanty of cheap games available from the same place, i'm looking forward to finding out if my retro memories are really accurate. Duck hunt, mario, original zelda! The possibilities!
And they'll make the gamecube look even better in comparison when it finally arrives : S
Original zelda baby!!!
> I think i'm addicted to ebay!
Join the club, I bidded for a game one weekend just too try it out, and now i'm hooked I must have got about 10 games in the last few months from them.
(But I still think Earthbound for Snes is better!)
I suggest you all get this game, although finding it may be difficult and like you found out very expensive. Shame really, it's a damn good RPG.
I was bidding for a game, placed a highest bid with about 6 minutes to go. Checked back every couple of minutes to refresh. With 1 min, 6 secs to go I was outbid. Figuring it'd be last bid wins, i held my nerve, waited, placed my bid. Highest with 5 seconds to go!
I love it! Problem is the bidding completely overshadowed what i was buying!
Just the winning the bid, man. This could become an expensive passtime!
But they tend to cost up to £15 each!
I'm not gonna pay that price when I can get N64 games for 3-4 squid!
:)
I've never played the thing, but i'm going to take a vast number of bidders' words for it that it'll be worth buying for anything under HUGE amounts of money if i get to buy a pal version! It still had ages to go before the deadline aswell. I'm still in shock!
www.ebay.co.uk
for loads of people selling stuff including retro consoles, Snes, NES, Megadrive, Game Gear, and others! Or you can download emulators.
PS anyone with a Snes or a Snes emulator get Earthbound. It's an incredible RPG that teaches Final Fantasy a thing or two about ... well RPGs actually!
Oh, but its not mature enough is it? Its colourful and unrealistic looking! Oh, but the battle scenes' backgrounds look like the designer had a bad LSD trip or something!!!
