Select Dreamcast and then Dreamkey from the link below and send them a request for the Dkey 3.0 (if you're in one of the countries they will send to).

I found some sort of music CD for the game "Legend of Mana". I just said "Selected Music". I dunno if this is the OST or some sort of promo deal, but it's neat whatever it is. Haven't had a chance to listen to it yet.

I guess I also passed up a Samsung Mega Drive (R8) which was just the system itself. I didn't quite know what it was, and thought it was some sort of odd MD/Famicom pirate system. It sure is odd. :/

Now all I need is 60hz modded saturn to play Cotton 2. (someone give me one...please!)

if you feel confident enough to do it yourself, goto:

http://users.skynet.be/DuNe/Console/saturn/saturn-model2.html

[Xexyz]

For roughly $30 I got the following PS1 games to beef up my collection:

http://img217.echo.cx/img217/9771/im0002974ot.th.jpg (http://img217.echo.cx/my.php?image=im0002974ot.jpg)

Final Fantasy Tactics (again)
Vandal Hearts
Bushido Blade
The king of Fighters 99 (was brand new)
Gekioh: Shooting King (blinded by the flash :angry: )
Sol Divide
Mobile Light Force (thanks alot for ruining a classic XS...)


Some notes and questions:

- Gekioh kicks unholy amounts of ass and sort of reminds me of the Raiden Jet games.

- XS games staff should be assassinated for butchering Psikyo classics such as Gunbird and Sol Divide.

- Did Vandal hearts come with a promotional disk? All I got was the actual game disk, but on the inside of the front cover is a big advertisment for Suikoden and a CD holder. Was there a promo disk there or something else origionally?

[SKVermin]

- Did Vandal hearts come with a promotional disk? All I got was the actual game disk, but on the inside of the front cover is a big advertisment for Suikoden and a CD holder. Was there a promo disk there or something else origionally?

From what I recall, no there wasn't. A lot of PS1 RPGs used the double-CD cases simply because there was more room to store the thicker instruction manuals. Vandal Hearts was one of these. And if they could use some of that space to plug their other games, why not, right?

[robotriot]

Got Switchblade for Amiga in the mail today, was looking for that title for quite some time ^^
