Is there a game that you're trying to get your hands on but it's no where to be found? You're looking on Ebay, online stores, trading forums, etc., but it just seems to be avoiding you. Despite the fact that you've turned over virtually every stone, the game does not appear.

I'm looking for a few Japanese Gameboy titles, and I've searched everywhere, but no luck so far. I'm sure GB Genjin and GB Genjin 2 are out there somewhere.

What games are currently evading your efforts to obtain them?

Well, it's hardly evading me, since there is a copy of it on Ebay right now with a $14.99 BIN...and there is only one copy of it there...

Anyway, Psychosis for the TG-16 is my new holy grail. It was one of the top 5 games I wanted when I got a TG...it's my #1 TG want now. The temptation to go get it on ebay is immense...but if I went to eBay everytime I had the urge to find a new game...I'd never leave the house. So I'm hoping some lucky TG collector can get that game...and I'll go searching all my favorite thrift stores and indy video game stores for the same title that I could own in less than 3 mouse clicks...

What's wrong with me???? THE TG-16 game I want most is only $15 and I'm passing it up???

Go get it Scooter! Think about it, man!

I'm searching for the 3 Woody Woodpecker discs for 3DO. I can't complete my collection without them, and they're unbelieveably difficult to track down.

I'm STILL looking for a complete US version of Galaxy Force for the Master System. The only times it ever seems to show up are when it's in a huge lot of games I already have, or is stolen away from me by a rich sniper who's simultaniously sniping it the same time I am. :(

well both games i want most right now can be had pretty easily, they are just expensive. Radiant Silvergun and Metal Slug 3

ive been tryin to trade for RS for awhile now, and it seems most of the people over at gametz.com either want way too much for it, or just list that they have it to brag.

as for MS3, i want to get the us version since there werent that many made, but 235.00 is a bit steep for me right now. of course if i find some games cheap to resell for a lot, ill probably pick it up.

There's a lot of games I've been looking for, but two games in particular come to mind:

Super Star Force w/ box + Instr for Famicom
Faxanadu w/ Box + Instr for Famicom

I've never seen the SSF and once saw the Faxanadu...shoulda bought tyhat Faxanadu, but I dodn't haver the $ at the time.

Bandai Arcadia "Macross" & ""Gundam". Had three 'maybe' shots at them, missed them all.

I actually just found one of the games I've been searching for. It was Viewpoint for PSX. I just got it at a video rental store for $5 bucks.

Another I've been looking for is Azure Dreams for PSX. Nothing rare, just a couple I've been wanting.

Well, I found my copy of Azure Dream for PSX at Toys R Us about a year ago. An OK game but I'd probably unload that one for something more useful.

As for what I'm really looking for at this moment: it's the Chess game for Lynx. Seems rather hard to find and I'm usually sniped out at the last minute and yes I've been putting big bids. The last one a sniper raised the bid amount by almost $20:P

I've been looking all summer for an Atari 7800 Summer Games. Everyone has it listed as a common game but I have every other common game and this one has been real tough to track down or even find listed on eBay. I'm sure I can get it NOS from some retailer out there for $40 but where's the fun in that?

Someone find me a complete copy of Alter Ego for the Apple II and I'll die a happy man.

I've been trying to land quite a few games that keep evading my radar, and most of em happen to be for the PC Engine: Soldier Blade, Sylphia (rare), Super Raiden, Gunhed, Spriggan, Spriggan Mark 2, and Kare Kiri. I'm also have my eye on Alien Soldier for the Mega Drive. Most of these can land heavy coin on eBay, so this broke college student will wait until after graduation (in Dec!) for the -official- hunt, when $$ will flow more freely.

Not a game, but i'm looking to get a Neo Geo cart system.

I'm not really searching for any one game- need a bunch to complete my DC collection. I am waiting though for Steel Battalion for the X-box and that imense controller set-up. Hey its either that or a used Raidant Silvergun for $200! I think SB is a better buy. :D

I can never seem to lay my hands on a copy of Tales of Destiny for the PSX. Every time i find it used, it looks like someone cleaned it with sandpaper or wiped their ass with it... how do people mess up their games this badly?!?! :mad:

I can't find a PAL copy of Ogre Battle 64 anywhere. A..n..y..w..h..e..r..e.

For me, it's mostly a matter of "I don't want to spend the $ right now" rather than I can't find it. Currently, I'm in search of a US Guardian Heroes for the Saturn (anyone want to swap for 2 copies of the Japanese one, mint complete?), Radiant Silvergun (Saturn), Batsagun (Saturn), Battle Garrega (Saturn), Neutopia 2 (TG16), Splatterhouse (TG16), Ogre Battle w/stickers (PSX), Super Raiden (PCE), Mega Man: Wily Wars (MD), and a few others.

By the way, den68, I have a MINT Azure Dreams, been opened and played once, then put away ever since, that I might be able to be convinced to swap off... :)

Scooterb23, I have a Psychosis, US version, complete - box that I also might trade..not sure yet. I need to pop it back in, but if I remember right, that wasn't one of my favorite TG16 games. Just get ahold of me :)

Currently, it would be Legendary Wings (NES), Breath of Fire 2 (SNES), Lufia 2 (SNES), Einhander (Playstation), and Tobal 2 (Playstation, Japanese).
