Nice! I might be interested in Ghosts and Goblins and Blaster Master if you ever sell. Here is my collection - including the ugliest Cobra Triangle I've ever seen (also the only Cobra Triangle I've ever seen)

I've been casually collecting Korean NES games for about 10 years now - casually in that I would get one if the price was not crazy. There haven't been very many online sales to go on, so pricing them will be hard. Some of them have only ever been seen in ads, so they could command a pretty high premium. The Zeldas should easily be 1000+ each, others much less. Are you looking to sell? Do you have a list of what you have?

Pretty sure the Alamo is the only place in Texas with a basement. -

@Sam NES Litmanhad his up for offer on Facebook for around 10K a week or two ago - did it sell? -
I got one for my kids when they were pretty little, it's a great first system. Wii Sports and Lego Star Wars got the most plays.

Why Do People Collect outside their region?
DK replied to fcgamer's topic in General Collecting Discussion
I can relate a little bit. I have essentially no connection to Korea, beyond being on Korean Air flights that pass though Seoul. However, I really like Korean NES games, and get them whenever I can for a non-crazy price. I just think it's neat seeing US box art in a different language. That's the same reason I collect Brazilian Playtronic. I'm not going for a full set or anything, but if it happens just due to paying attention then, that's ok with me. I don't have an Instagram or show the public the weird things I have, so I'm probably not the person you are complaining about, but I can understand being interested in another region's games with only a minor or maybe even no connection to the area. -

I collect Hong Kong NES because when I was living in Asia I visited Hong Kong 3 times. It's really great city and I have good memories of it. So, when I see the word Hong Kong on a NES classic that I love, it makes it just a little more interesting to me than a regular US copy. Plus, purple NES boxes look pretty sweet. -
Since I don't actually get to play too many NES games that much nowadays, I'll go with the one with the most memories from childhood: RBI Baseball. I played it a ton with my best friend, we even had rules like you couldn't be the AL team because Brett Saberhagen's slider was basically unhittable for the first 3 innings. I brought it to college and had a Japanese roommate who absolutely humbled me with his skills. I still remember bringing out the cart and getting destroyed with the 10 run rule.

What are the cheapest games that you love the most?
DK replied to Lynda Monica's topic in General Collecting Discussion
Grand Theft Auto III for PS2 is super cheap and has great replay value. -
What do you do when you've completed your collecting goal(s)?
DK replied to inasuma's topic in General Collecting Discussion
Hitting a wall in my main collecting objectives turned me on to variant collecting. It's never-ending and new stuff keeps getting discovered. -
Blue border? Got a pic?

Amazing collection! Is there any piece you happen to be looking for? Do you/your group have doubles/extras of anything for sale?

I would way prefer being named General Booty over Dick Trickle. General Booty sounds like a nickname for a stud. Dick Trickle sounds like a serious medical problem.

Are there multiple Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt cartridge variants?
DK replied to RH's topic in General Collecting Discussion
Since we're expanding outside of the US, I think that the Korean version is the only non-North American version to use the North American artwork - is that right? -
Volume of ebay items today vs decade ago
DK replied to final fight cd's topic in General Collecting Discussion
As someone who collects Asian games, for sure. Covid really messed up international shipping. Some countries STILL aren't shipping to the US 2.5 years later... -
This seller on Ebay just listed several Asian front/Samurai back carts from Australia: https://www.ebay.com/itm/284865148772

I think it's been a while since my last one of these. What the hell, I'm in.
