    Ever since I picked up a modded Playstation I've been wanting to try a PAL game and see if it would play. I've always liked the screenshots I've seen of X2: No Relief, so I grabbed a copy off Ebay for $3. I put it in the Playstation and was pleased to see it started right up. As the intro was playing out I thought it was a bit cliched, but interesting none the less. Too bad it was a roller. I reached behind the TV to adjust the vertical hold knob. When did they stop putting those on TV's??? Oh well. I'm not having much luck with PAL games, but I realize it could be much, much worse. I could be over there trying to import!

    As I was reading Greg Wilcox's column "The Name Game", I realized that I had every Assault Suits game except 'Assault Suits Valken 2' on the Playstation. That's even if you considered SNES 'Metal Warriors' to be Assault Suits Gideon or not. I knew this one was a strategy game similar to Front Mission instead of being a side scrolling action game, but completing the entire series with a $5 BIN on Ebay seemed reasonable. Of course I'll miss the whole story in the game as it's in Japanese, but the action part of the game was mostly in English and pretty managable. The game has great camera control and looks pretty good in my opinion.

    Lastly, I spotted "Metal Fangs" on an Ebay auction. I was the 7th bidder and took it for $15 and change. I guess that means six others felt I over paid for it. I've had my eye out for this game for awhile now and it's nice to finally have it. Sort of a wacky racer type game but you control a team of racers against another team of racers in a destruction derby kind of event. The game is probably %90 in English so it's really easy to pick up and play. Odd, because it's a Japanese exclusive as far as I know, so I can just picture some Japanese kid wondering why English is in the game. The auction was from England, so this game's gone around the world to get to me!

    My newest cab to the arcade collection as of yesterday. Thanks BIG! Since it's a japanese
    cab I suppose it counts as an import? haha. Also got a very large shipment of console games for several systems from yahoo japan, though haven't had time to sift through them yet due to the local asian film festival, an LA trip and some meetings... hopefully sometime next week though.

    Managed to snag myself a PCEngine (working) along with the power adapter, RF adapter, two original controllers, the games Dragon Spirit and some HudsonSoft Mahjong game for $20 Canadian.

    Interestingly, it seems like the system has been modified. Instead of a switch where the 'channel selector' is, there are two wires coming out of the side: one yellow (for video) and one white (for audio) On all pictures of the unit I've seen, none have had this modification.

    But then again, I haven't done much research on the PCE until now ;)

    - RS.

    You guys who are keeping up to date on this thread are awesome! Thanks for all the pics, but man I would love to hear some mini-reveiws. If any of you have been playing these games I would really like to hear your opinions, to help with future purchases.

    And I do apologize that I haven't posted any reveiws (I haven't had any $$$)....soon my collection will swell again. Maybe I will play some of my older ones and post some reveiws.

    I guess the last 'import' i've bought would have been Trizeal for Dreamcast in the spring.

    All Saturn imports, all complete...

    Darkseed
    Dragon Force
    Fighters Megamix
    Hanagumi Taisen Columns
    M (emu) Kimi wo tsutaete
    Magic Knight Rayearth
    Vampire Hunter
    Virtua Fighter
    Virtua Fighter 2
    Virtua Fighter Kids
    Virtua Fighter Remix

    About $20 after shipping, I only picked up the VF games (with the exception of VF Kids) since they were six cents a pop, mass eBay win. Hanagumi Taisen Columns is the ONLY Columns game I actually enjoy, couldn't tell you why however - maybe because the presentation is nicely polished. Also going to be nice to finally play the unedited and properly voiced version of Magic Knight Rayearth. Dragon Force is going up in my B&S thread soon.

    More Saturn imports are en route right now - Fighting Vipers (Pepsiman unlockable in JPN version) and Sky Target.

    Here's the sample panorama cotton - or I think it is as I cannot run this one at the moment. My Wondermega is with someone else at the moment...


    When I get back Wondermega hopefully I will find out more abou this one...

    In the mean time any idea for which console this cart is for?


    Can't say what's on this one as it was given to me by someone and he has no idea either... ???
    My guess is it's some kind of test cart for MegaDrive???
