it's a bootleg.

Wow, I love your bootleg/unlicensed/repro haul. Always good to see a fellow knock off collector, seems like we're getting pretty scarce these days.

I've got a Power Player/Super Joy, a Virtual Station, a Power-Joy, a PXP Slimstation, and a couple bootleg controllers and carts. Stuff like that is hard to come by in my area, and I can't order things online unless I can pay with a money order, since I don't have a credit card. As for repros, only Earthbound on the NES, which I ordered through a website.

Ooh I'd love to see pics. Have you thought about PayPal? You don't need a card for that.

Here are some pics of the stuff I have with me at the moment:IMG_0260.jpg

And here's a pic of my only reproduction game, which happens to be my favorite game of all time:

I did make an ebay and PayPal account for this kind of stuff, but there were problems with connecting my bank account to it, and I haven't been able to get it fixed. Oh well.

What's on that Famicom multicart?

I ordered this early last month and it finally showed. It's in great condition and I love it.

Nothing special. The usual suspects that you find on most famicarts: Super Mario Bros, Contra, Battle City, Kung Fu, Donkey Kong, Space Invaders, Adventure Island, etc. I think the best game on it is a really buggy version of Kero Kero Keroppi no Daibouken 2: Donuts Ike ha Oosawagi. The fact that it's all messed up makes it even funner than it already is! I'll see if I can find a complete list of the games it has. These kind of carts came with the Virtual Station.

Aw yeah, got another bootleg console for my collection!! And from this year too.

I collect music games!

Video Games are so inflated in price right now, that nobody can possibly get into the hobby, unless you choose to collect the most unloved, unappreciated, over-saturated genre of them all Big Grin

I started two years ago, researching, catalogueing and collecting all of the Konami games, which quickly led into collecting all of the Playstation and Playstation 2 games, and then before I could even set myself a goal, I was just cataloguing and collecting every music game I could find. I got pretty lucky with most of the big-ticket games, and I'm holding out for the retro game fad bubble to burst, before I pick up the insanely rare and expensive ones, but so far I'm over 300 games, with an average cost of around £2 each.

Here's The Monolith when I last photographed it around a year ago. I'm hoping to put the collection to good use, once I can raise the funds to catalogue them all, and provide a history of the genre.

Rad display dude. I really like seeing the pic and reading the collection story.

And yeah prices still be crazy. I've been wanting to buy back a bunch of my childhood SNES & N64 games/consoles for about three years now but those prices are still to much for me.

Prime time for buying up Disney Infinity junk if anybody is so inclined. Retail stores like Wal-mart and Toys R Us have been pricing those things to get out of their brick and online stores ASAP. I think the games leave a little something to be desired, but I do love the distinctive styles of the Marvel and Star Wars character toys.

Brand new SNES fighting game from ex-SNK staff members. US release just came out today (Japanese version's been out since April I think)

[Ninjinister]

My power went out today, so that gave me an excuse to do some cleaning

Found Master System games! I also have a loose Virtua Fighter Animation somewhere....

[oldmanwinters]

Nice, Ninjinister, I'd say you really mastered Spring cleaning!
