Stadium Events box (not mine)

Don't get too crazy over it, though: it's PAL.

I was in Tokyo!!!!

But now I'm back.
And I'm posting this seller:
http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZtobe100
He has one of the most interesting ads collection i've ever seen. Almost all ending in 6 hours!

Dunno how many here that care about it, but i can mention that this is the SCN (scandinavian) release which is much harder to get than the german release. So unless you're a region collector it probly does matter much.

You sure? Didn't the scandinavian ones have english text all over?

Yep, 100% sure. I know the seller. No, even the SCN manual have german text on the front page for some odd reason hehe.

I think it's good if I write some auctions that I find pretty intriguing:

This seller has some of the coolest patches ever!

12 prints-artworks from a soon-to-be-released RPG by Darkskull
Has already ended, but I find strange...these are prints...and went for so much...

You should keep an eye on this seller. It looks like he has bought many Midway items...

What does this seller means with "This auction is for gamers like myself not collectors"?
Will this ET unreleased game for TI 99/4A be actually enjoyable?

I believe what he means by this is that it is the game ROM on an ordinary disk (in effect, a bootleg/pirate)...

Sure does.

I bought some TI games from him. Several hundred dollars worth. I only got a half shipment and all the games were MINT. Really really Mint. In fact they looked like they were just put together. Wait a second... these WERE just put together. I think the glue used to keep one of the carts together was still wet.

HUGE fiasico. Paypal got involved ,I got my money back (most of it) and he got his bootlegs back and he acted like I was wrong. I told him the bootlegs were not collectable and thus I had no interest in them. He said he only sells games to people who want to play them said no one complained so I was an problem bidder. He even admitted he made them and said he was doing the community a service providing these games. Whatever.. buyer beware thats all I got to say.

Also of note... Ianiod had problems with this guy as well.

PlayStation Museum liquidation sale

my...heart... THUD! wow.

while eBay pulled that (fake for me) Phantasy Star IV Genesis proto, many other interesting items have surfaced. I'd like to point out some auctions:

there is a seller who is selling many NES protos and this unreleased Hit the Ice

Jaysmith2000 has always crazy Atari stuff, and this Atari 2700 wireless label that looks wonderful

But now, tell me, what is this?
A real Exertainment modem or just a piece of hardware that was used to connect different Exertainment units?

Thats the part that communicates the bike data to the SNES not a modem to communicate online or anything. Just a part of the whole bike system we have all seen before.

SNES Maximum Carnage LE

Why is it that so many of these don't have the game?

[rik1138]

I just saw this on Gamesniped:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=130121455903
NES Donkey Kong Classic demo/promo cart.

I wanted to make an observation on it (since you can't really leave comments on gamesniped in a sensible fashion)- The question is, is this real?

The on observation I can make is the numbers on the stickers applied to the chips. Those numbers usually reflect the checksum value of the data burned on the EPROM, right? If so, they would have to be either 4 or 8 digits. And what are the odds that the two different EPROMs would have checksums that are so similar?

Anyone noticed this big lot of GB protos?
The looks immaculate...I presume that these are empty, but, was a BG prototyping cart given by Nintendo with an EPROM already socketed?
