Today I decided to make some room in the closet for a bunch of empty Genesis boxes of no real value to me. While making space for this crap, and sorting out random x-men comics I have no interest in, I happened upon three long boxes. One was the case to Descent (which I bought for the skinny puppy related soundtrack), another a complete copy of Cybersled (hurray?), and this little gem...
A complete copy of Popful Mail, that I had bought for $5 and totally forgotten about! The case was a little dirty, but doesn't appear to have any cracks at all. I've since wiped it off, and even managed to get most of the sticky off from the sticker. Sadly, the sticker no longer sticks. The disc itself is in excellent condition. I think I must have separated it from the games I actually play, and thusly forgot I had ever bought it.
I thought about selling it, but I'm going to keep it. I'm pretty sure it's one of the only long boxes I have left for the Sega CD. Not to mention the fact that I've already gone on record, along with the entire planet, of saying the Sega CD kinda sucks. I already own all of the Make my video games except INXS, Kids on Site and NFL's Greatest to remind me of that. I could use one good game. Also, I enjoy action RPG's, so who knows, I might even play it... And to think I was all excited for paying $3 for this sweet Ryu endorsed controller just itching to be used in mame. Super Baseball 2020 was probably the better bargain at $1.50...

Anyone else manage to forget about owning something special? Is this a sign that my collection has grown out of control? Will Popful Mail be the magical fantasy adventure is claims to be?
