Three good games, how much did you drop on all of them? I'd love to be able to find Saturn games in the wild. I've never been lucky, though. Grolt no good game stores in Flames land? Maybe Iginla bought em all up! Kidding aside Ive only found a few cool saturn games in the wild. Its more fun than b...

$40 is a good price for a complete one. It's one of the most expensive games for the system, since at this point it's still the only Winning Post game to be converted and playable in English NTSC. It's a cool sim game, too, definitely a game worthy of the price if you're into that sort of thing. Co...

It doesnt stack to Mario Kart but if people stop comparing it to that and take it for what it is, its really fun. Well, it's certainly a prettier game than the sprite-based Mario Kart 64, and the A.I. is much more realistic and challenging. It's not that stupid "catch up no matter how good you...

Does it work with games like Myst? That would be good. I've never tried it with Myst, but I imagine it's the same thing. The mouse keys are just A, B and C on the standard control pad. There aren't buttons for the three others because, well, that would be redundant for surfing the net (especially a...

i had dark savior for a while and didnt enjoy it quite the same. i mean, it is a really nice looking game, i love the graphics and everything, i think it controls pretty well but the battles are weak. its like one on one fighting and it's not very balanced. the battles really took me out of the gam...

That's quite the haul, Derek. Nicely done. I never played the original Panzer Dragoon as a kid, either. When I bought my system I sent away for the free demo, got it, played it to death and then decided to wait to spring for Zwei instead. Well, Zwei was and is amazing, but after getting the first ga...

I know we have a number of European forum members... but off the top of my head I can't remember who lives in the UK.
segadreamcaster does, and he's a long time member. Give him a shout, he may finally get his match!

Personally, I'll go as early as 16-bit. It's very difficult for me to deal with 8-bit systems. There are very few exceptions I can make for anything older than SNES/Genesis/etc. Then you're missing out, my friend. The Sega Master System is filled with an amazing catalog of games for a system with s...

Shame that you're selling, maniac! If you hold out a little longer I'm sure there will be more practical ways of playing users long distance. Trust me, the thrill of this thing actually working is one that you won't soon forget!

Sonic R is a great game - probably one of my favorite sonic games next to the Master System version of the original and Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast. It really "gets it" when it comes to what makes Sonic such an interesting property. I know it is made with a racing container in mind, b...

This is definitely an uncommon system, but there isn't much demand for it, so really, anything over $100 is too much. There have been mint and sealed copies of this same package that haven't even sold for the $125 Buy it Now. Honestly, I'd say something like $80 plus shipping would be a reasonable p...
