This just came in the mail today! Box is in really good condition but unfortunately it's missing all the paperwork.

How much might this be worth? The box is in great condition, maybe a solid A-. Everything inside is in original plastic bags and untouched.

The  right one (without the MiJ) looks extremely sketch to me.

Why? I have one just like it. Seems like a 3-screw sub-variant.

Yep just as I expected, the game is now going for $30 brand new. RIP all the fomo buyers who got it for $80+ lol

There was a graded one as well on Facebook from Vegas. Asking price was $20k.

With the TV mounted so high up doesn't it hurt your neck?

I've seen some games like this where the board has the capability for saving but missing the hardware components. Don't remember them off the top of my head.

Bump!

is it the sticker? Looking at the others the red one looks very dark

The packaging, the sticker, everything

Those are 100% fake

I heard Deal Tavern ordered a reprint of Attack on Titan 2 Final Battle. It's hilarious how people were buying them up for ridiculous money and now they're all screwed.

Also, did Code Of Princess Ex get a reprint? I suddenly see tons of them on eBay. Does anyone know if it comes with the launch edition goodies inside the case?

I think eBay has been doing this shit since around 2018 where they limit results based on your location inferred from your IP address. I have friends in India where the search results are severely constrained until they connect to a VPN based in US and suddenly boom all the results appear.

You can also try clicking on the search filters and setting the "item location" filter to "worldwide" but it doesn't always work.

Bump

I did a recap on one of these recently with SMD style replacement caps and it was a royal pain in the ass.

Yup I found my Adventure Time for DS on Mercari last year. I hear it's the only steelbook for DS. But that's somewhat questionable since it appears to be exactly the same as the 3DS one. Only difference is the outer sleeve.

So someone mutilated a Star Fox NFR? How much is it worth usually? But if I was an NFR collector I would probably pass on this.

It's a bad idea to buy up retail Switch games based on "rarity" because they can easily get reprints at this point. It has already happened many times. Examples are Atelier Ryza, Ys VIII, etc.

Korg Gadget was a "limited Japan exclusive" and had people scrambling to buy at inflated prices until an ESRB version suddenly dropped and crashed the price.

Then there was the Walmart release of Tiny Troopers XL rumored to have a "limited print" and people were tripping over themselves buying from scalpers for $60+. Now there's a seller on eBay sitting on tons of copies trying to sell at $30.

I'm sure there are many more examples like this. I almost bought into the hype for some of these but I'm glad I refrained.

That's a pretty sweet setup, I was thinking about going the projector route too.  How's the input latency on that thing?

It's supposed to be around 50ms in game mode. Should be good for most gamers.

Geez looked that up, $6500 projector?!  That's nuts, but it does look great.  Shame there isn't a class of projector 10% or less of that cost that does solid quality and close in to the wall too.

I actually got a good deal on it. $4500 shipped brand new.

Imma need some details and first impressions!

The projector is a Samsung LSP9T ultra short throw. This style of projector is also known as a "laser TV". It sits on the TV stand right in front of the screen.

I paired it with a 120" gray screen and 5.1 speaker system. Initial impression is I'm blown away . The projector is Samsung's flagship and is supposed to have colors equal to an OLED TV. Contrast is great but not as good as an OLED. Brightness is excellent since the light source is right next to the screen.

Here's another picture of a scene with vibrant colors. It has a little too much red tint that I later fixed.

Overall I'd say it's a massive upgrade in all respects. I can't get over the 120" screen size. No TV today can match that.

Picked up an ultra short throw projector and screen for the game room!

Updated my OLED TV to a full projector setup! Massive step up from my (now seemingly puny) 55" TV to a 120" screen! 

Got an ultra short throw projector to avoid a bunch of wiring in the attic and drilling into the ceiling for the mount. It just sits there on the TV stand right in front of the screen. Also got a receiver and 5.1 speaker setup.

Some games I tried out:

Need 2 of them. I'm leaning towards the Mini but might consider the Pro too depending on price.

Are these better than Sony's official component cables?

Samurai sold. Added Indian exclusive PS2 games!
