Good job. I have to collect all my old SMS games again. My SMS blew up, and I CAN'T FIND MY OLD SMS GAMES! Ghostbusters, Rampage (much better on SMS than the NES), Astro Warriors, Transbot, Quartet, Fantasy Zone, Safari Hunt/Hang On... The list goes on and on... All gone! I haven't found much buys, lately, but I was in an Unreal Tournament tournament (uh...), top ten players get two copies of the game, and there were only 7 people when I entered, so of course I signed up! Same tournament, there were raffles, and people put a dollar here, a dollar there. I smacked down 30 bucks, and walked off with, literally, 10 games, a ring, a pendant, a couple of T-shirts, a long sleeve shirt, three hats, 3 posters, and a mouspad. Returned a majority of the games for 50 bucks each, and made out like a bandit. Economics: it can work for you!

Good find, eh! :) I played the Brazilian Portuguese version a time...

SMS *still* (believe it or not) is very popular here in Brazil. It's easy to find many new games here, including several titles never released anywhere else (Street Fighter II, Virtua Fighter, etc)... And the console itself still sells a lot too...

Yep, you got an AWESOME deal there. Phantasy Star is such a great game for the SMS. I remember purchasing it new at Toys R US for $79.99 I believe. It was the most expensive SMS game released, and quite rare nowadays as well. JUst make sure that when you get to fight Lassic in the sky you either have the teleport do-dad or you keep your cat friend alive! :)

I'm thinking we're going to use you as our "contact" in Brazil for SMS games :) I've looked online down in Brazil for online stores carrying them, but I havne't found any.

Or at least save some magic points for Alis' escape spell. I think that works as well.
