    Default Rare SMS US Titles?

    I'm about to head to a shop with some SMS games, they're all priced at $6 but I was wondering if there were any rare titles I should keep a lookout for, and on the same note some really great ones as well. I'm picking up Fantasy Zone regardless even if it's a R1 - $0.50 title, I can't believe I forgot it the first time around.

    heh, thanks, and I have said I will get one as soon as I get paid, which is tomorrow. But, I got a small $20 gift from a friend and I figured I'd grab that Fantasy Zone and some others. Thanks DP

    I've never agreed with Fantasy Zone being a rarity 1, It's gotta be at least a rarity 2.

    Well, here's what I got for $16...

    Wonder Boy
    Montezuma's Revenge
    Zillion I
    Zillion II
    Space Harrier
    Fantasy Zone.


    I've also learned that I flat out suck at Fantasy Zone. Heh. Wonderboy is fun, and I haven't tried the others yet.

    Power Strike is not only uncommon, but a great shooter too. Zillion 1 was the first SMS game I ever beat, and it's great too. PS is much like the later Robo Aleste for the SEGA CD.

    I believe ShinobiMan's Website SegaMasterSystem.com has a rarity guide.

    I'm not sure how acurate it is but hey it's there!

    Rock On!

    DP, I really am beginning to think nobody knows about the online lists.

    Everybody on this board ought to own a DP guide. No *real* collector is without one. Not even being sarcastic here.

    Sure the online lists are cool, but you are missing so damn much if you don't have the guide.

    This is not true, because here there are a lot of people from other countries that donīt have enough money to buy one and are real collectors...

    Why would foreigners not have the money for the guide?? amazon.com ships it to Europe for $10.

    AD is from Argentina though, and... I don't know perhaps shipping there is a huge hassle. *shrugs*

    I have a guide. However, being a Canuck, I spent nearly $80CDN on the guide and shipping. The exchange can be nasty. I love my guide to death, but it was a splurge. I get paid in canadian pesos. :/

    Iīm From Argentina like AdamG said, and shipping here is very expensive and also... $US 1 = $ 3 (argentinian pesos), so it costs three times the price :/ , the economic situation here is a shit.

    Ouch, AD. And I thought I used to have it hard in Canada. So... basically we're talking around 100 argentinian pesos for the guide shipped. Hmm. Maybe I should order two and ship one to you in a trade, lol.
