just a couple of retro bits for me this week. Been after that Jazz Jackrabbit for a while. It's pretty difficult to find complete copies these days. This one's mint. Lovely jubbly :)


Good stuff mate. That jazz jack rabbit is a bloody nightmare to get on PC.

jazz Jackrabbit on GBA is a different game to the PC version.

Yeah, was aware off that, just reminded me off how hard the pc version off this particular title is to come by.

Yup it was from France, very nice fella who was selling it agreed to ship over to the UK, I offered him a price he couldn't really refuse though :D

I thought you already had Civilization?

Too wet for car boots up here today, but I managed to pick up a few things during the week.

Image

The Game Boy styled device is actually a two in one LCD game/Famiclone (pirate NES) with TV out. The best bit about it is that on the multicartridge is a cute Mario hack called Pandamar.

Gulp for the CD32 was from eBay, as was Sheep. The GBA SP was found for £3, but the backlight doesn't work :(

As for Azure Dreams, well...

Azure Dreams for 49p - would have been rude to just leave it in the shop now, wouldn't it?

Went to saturday morning market, but no carboots other than that throughout the weekend due to the horrendous weather all weekend especially today.

still managed to bag some real nice pc games, and with them all costing approx 25p each i was still quite pelased with the weekends result. Shocking to believe someone tipped all these games away......

I got these yesterday. All complete in box unless stated otherwise. Im starting my collection with games i am the most interested in.


£0.50 - 1945 I&II
Image

£1 - The Getaway (map has been ripped)
Image

£1 - The Getaway Black Monday
Image

£2 - Onimusha 3
Image

£0.75 - R-Type Final (slight water damage to cover)
Image

Finally i got a sealed copy of Lord of the rings, the third age. Picked that up to replace my other copy that was a tad tatty, set me back £4.
Image

Hope to pick a lot more up soon, but where i live i only have CEX, chips and an indipendant shop to go, slim pickings atm im afraid, plus i don't think ppl here look after their games since most box covers are foggy (how does that happen and how can i fix it?).

I've always wanted the complete box set Lunar games but I just couldn't justify the rise in prices. Paid £42 inc for all of the above so I'm extremely happy.

If anyone stumbles across a Valkyrie Profile case + possible manual only in the future please let me know ;)

Nice lot, i was bidding on a G7000 on ebay all complete in the box and in good nick, but i only bidding £30 and it sold for £65 +p&p (within the last 3 sec it when from my £30 bid to that £65, so i was not happy), which was a little too much for me.

Still i am sure i get my hands on one soon :D
