Nice haul! Especially the Congo's Caper. It's a decent game on it's own but being part of the Joe and Mac trilogy means that it's got excellent collector demand.

Is there ANYONE who can tell me what the MCD/32X lot would be worth? Purchased it nonetheless after asking everywhere for an estimate :p
More than half of them are sealed. One of the 32X games looks like resealed, but the rest is genuine.

Either way, the Xbox lot was from Marcus and very pleased with them! Cracking bunch of games right there!


Lots of lovely spinecards there! excellent!

It's difficult putting a price on the 32x CD games. Some people put them up for over £100 each on BINs (but don't get sold) - sometimes they end at £40-£50 bids. But, it's been a while since I looked at Mega CD or 32x games (I finished my MCD collection a while ago - with the 32x MCD games, so I stopped looking) so I may be well out of date.

Thanks mate. Seems like the price was right then. I'm thinking of trading them in exchange for the same games but unsealed or at least games for the same platform. Didn't buy them because they were sealed as I wanted to play them. At the moment, I don't have a 32X nor a working Mega CD. :(
But good to know that I didn't overpay with my 150 Euro including shipping :D

Are they all sealed?!! :o

If yes, would you be interested in trading all of them (only one required where you've got a duplicate) for opened versions of each and 120 Euros? :D

Excellent - you've got the big box Speed Machines III. Was there anything else in the box other than the game in a standard blue case with manual? I've got one myself as you know but there was nothing else other than the game in a bigger box

My copy was factory sealed but I opened it. Inside is an inner cardboard tray holding the regular blue box version of the game, factory sealed.

@ewjim

unfortunately both NES games are missing the manuals, but at 2€ each I certainly couldn't pass them. Finally my chance to try DuckTales 2. Owned the original as a kid, certainly one of my favorite games back then.

Some Japanese Goodies came today!

Image

A few more GBP to the collection, got the silver console to go with the gold console i have in the same box, it was relativity cheap and came with all the games shown, so not too bad.

The Green and Pink consoles came from the same seller, needed to buy a new screen for the green one, I'm really surprised by the quality of the replacement, it looks identical to the real ones! However the pink consoles screen had been re-glued on years ago by the looks of it and you could see the glue on the screen. I pried it off and cleaned all the glue of and now i just need to reapply it nicely. :D

I've also just bought another GBP (been buying a lot recently lol!), It's yet another silver console but with the black screen cover, it comes with 27 mediocre Japanese games so i will post pics in a week or so!

Most of them are yes. Ideally, that would be the kind of deal I'd be interested in. The problem is that shipping would be a killer and so I hear in pm's and locally here, I'd probably get more out of it. Don't want to suck every penny out of it either but I'll look into it further.
