    Default Not really

    If you're patient, you can pretty much find anything. As for the GBA SP Famicom version, you need to put away around $1K for one. They have been showing up on Yahoo.JP auctions and they have been selling for right around $1K US over the last few weeks.

    I'm still trying to find decent games and a VMU for my DC.

    Only $1K for a 25th Anniversary Famicom GBA SP? That's not as high as I'd expected.

    Personally, a white Game Gear with case and TV tuner has been on eBay, $650 or $700. I'd rather get that, but I can't vouch for the price (they overprice other things) or their "only 1000 made" figure. Still looks awesome, though.

    Something I've been looking for forever: Contra and Hinotori (Firebird) on MSX 2 :( I've seen two copies on eBay of both and lost every auction.

    Probably will take longer to find NEC PC-XXXX (6001, 9801, etc) games, though.

    That solid gold, jewel encrusted Gamegear..... They only made like 5 of them.

    Of course, if I ever find it, I'll NEVER be able to afford it.

    It'd look pretty cool in the CGE museum though.

    Well... lately I've been looking for the Pigskin 621 A.D. PCB for my arcade... and I've been having a hard time finding one. I remember playing that at Chuck E. Cheese... great game! It's not that it goes for THAT much, I think the last one I saw went for $70, but I just didn't see it until it was already gone .

    Alright in the spirit of the thread, I will bring this up. I know I could get one on Ebay or from one of you all, but I am determined to find Hellboy for the PS1 in the wild. This game has eluded me at every place I go and I am beginning to wonder if it was only released on one of the coasts!
    It might not be a grail, but it still bugs me. x_x

    An affordable NeoGeo. So basically, I'm looking for a higher paying job.

    I'm looking for Golden Axe Warrior for SMS. I bid on probably 10 eBay auctions for this game in the last year and lost every one of them. And finding SMS games in the wild in my area is not really an option.

    The white Game Gear just sold on Ebay for $300. No lie. As for the 1 grand, it really high, but worth it to me. I think I am goign to start saving up. You don't know how bad I want this thing.

    No lie, yeah, but that's not exactly the one I was thinking of:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=49237

    Still, was it identical to this one? Pisses me off that this seller is apparently so clueless as to what things are worth.

    I remember reading about the diamond encrusted game-gear in Gamepro way back when! GOod luck finding even a picture of those...


    As for me? I'm looking for the Japanese version of Starfox 64, complete in box with rumble pack. It's gotta be japanese.

    And a white Sega Saturn, but I think I might let that one go, no reason for me to get it other than the fact that It's white.

    Heh! http://www.ntscco.com.hk/md.htm

    See how much the same white game gear (and look, it's got papers, the TV tuner, and the hard case, too!) is going for here? Can't say if it's new, but it doesn't seem to have anything wrong with it (at least at this resolution).

    Is there something about it that makes it different from the North American version? (Other than japanese text of course).
