The Target B2G1 sale is live! I got these! They had the new TMNT game on the deal which was a nice surprise! So I guess $21 for a pre-order isn't bad even without the CD.

The    version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge get's a free CD, we always get taxed for this stuff!

They are like that?  They sent me a Japanese cover Pocky n Rocky but the game is in english.  Is your Asia-English Klonoa mailed already?  Maybe, just maybe depending, I could buy you out of it as i don't give a crap about the cover, as long as the game is in english since people are too damn cheap to make manuals anymore it's just a sticker and paper sleeve at this rate.  I've got Pocky like this, and years ago I Am Setsuna too.

I thought Klonoa was up for a US release, what kind of bullshit is that?!

Sounds good game releases 07/07 but I also got GrimGrimoire OnceMore on this order which releases 07/28 so its going to be middle of August before these arrive.

Is Klonoa getting a North American release????

Not announced and not looking like it's going to happen. I preordered from Play Asia, ended up having to buy two because the first one I bought was not the English cover and you know Play Asia  is no returns no refunds

So is that amazon, best buy, walmart, something else? Theres no store logo or anything on the images 

My Bad, Yes Target! I also got another Circle offer to stack with this. Spend $100 3 times and get $30, that's another 10% and Redcard gets you another 5%.

Starts Sunday!

Picked up a couple Active Life: Outdoor Challenge from Target today for like $12 each. Cool thing is that it comes with two Nintendo leg straps, same as the one included with Switch Sports. This game MSRP was $70 bucks because they are charging $10 for each leg strap and its a $50 game on eShop. Maybe worth a grab just to score a few extra leg straps cheap especially if you have the 30% off coupon like I used.

Mulk is slacking posting this Sword of Vermilion "small grid" variant, so I'm stealing it from him.

Wow NICE catch! This reminds me of the Phantasy Star II reprint. Is there any noticeable difference on the case spine art?

Will target have a steelbook bundle release? I haven't seen it, they are offering a free journal with preorder though.

That's going to be on the news.

 Noticed the listing right away because it's box is unique to this variant, box is not great but it has the correct B&W manual. 

Finding that Bio-Hazzard battle has me going through this thread again and noticed the Lightening Force print variant is not on the spread sheet. Made in USA cart, It has different style cart top label art, the cart code on the bottom is a sticker and not actually printed and the grid patter is much more bold. 

1st print top label

Here's a pick of my collection! Almost there just a few more holes to fill to complete all the known variants.

Yeah buddy found another one, #62 and one of the more obscure Genesis shooters no less Bio-Hazzard Battle! Been exactly 17 months since the last post, crazy to think how much the collecting scene has progressed since then.  

Bio-Hazzard Battle  found on ebay (224528235994)

I just beat Cyber Shadow, 10 hours and 500 deaths! Game is excellent, a Ninja Gaiden inspired light Metroidvania with some hints of Mega Man. Looking forward to the Physical treatment and undoubtly the Amiibo to drop alongside. I guess they need to sell a few million before they show us the physical goods though..Play the game on gamepass if you can before than it's fantastic!

Man the Switch is the King of Shmups!! They just released Crimson Clover yesterday and Shoot 1up last week Too!!

Just buy it on Amazon, pre orders are open now!

Great find!

Look at picture 3. I don't think it is a flip-top

No, picture 4 confirms it. You can see the sides of the flaps.

Hey guy, long time no post, I found a new variant for Sonic 3, apparently in addition to the two slide boxes, there was also a flip-top version:

Sure looks that way, great observation!

I got my $15 refund, they just sent it over without any email or notice. At first I thought they just cancelled my order but then seen it was just a partial refund.

This is not my auction but wanted to share as this is a hard to find variant for Phantasy Star II.

I assume there are some 2 button NES controllers that work on the Switch.  If so, which do you all recommend?  

Get the real deal!

Not my auction but this variant is hard to find so figured I would share.

Supergamboy this Phantasy Star II variant needs to be added to the spreadsheet. I speculate this is the Sega Classic release Advertised. I have run into serval copies in my search for the canadian variant as this is sort of a hybrid. It shares the same Genesis logo as the Canadian variant.
