Now selling old Mac games.

I'll reveal a bit more:

I am a fan! Here's a new one:

Haha, I was going to post a picture from that game on my next turn! It's Pinball Quest.

Not looking for anything in particular. I'll check trade lists.

Another import lot for sale. Also taking offers on Lunacy.

Although it looks like something that should be part of a larger game (my initial thought was it was going to be some sort of Wii Music sequel), I think it looks kinda fun. It seems it's already available on PC and was well received. I played it a few times. The trailer got me hyped, but I was disappointed after playing it. It delivered what it promised, but a 99 player F-Zero game just didn't feel as exciting as I thought it would. It just made me want to play the SNES or GBA games instead. I'm sure I'll give it another shot at some point though.

I didn't care for either of them. I consider them among the worst RPGs I've played. If you want to give a BoF game a try, III, IV, and Dragon Quarter are all much better.

Pac-Land is done. Wasn't crazy about it.

It is! Also, here's the same scene as it appears on the cover art:

While it certainly isn't a mainstream game, I think revealing too large a portion of the screen would give it away. That's not even considering that the name of the game is displayed on the screen for the vast majority of the game. As a side note, I was just looking at the game case (it happen to be right next to me) and noticed that the screenshots look significantly different from the actual game. Maybe they used a prototype for the screenshots?

Even bigger?

Would revealing a bit more of the screenshot help?

Not that. Time for a hint? It's a Genesis game, released in North America and Japan, but not Europe.

No correct answers yet.

Try this one:

Thunder Force VI

Finished Dungeon Explorer. Kinda boring at times, but not a terrible game.

Yes, it was the American version. What about R Type? I hear that one is pretty tough. I played a bit of Timeball, but couldn't get into it. I could see it being a pain.

Lot still available. Added another game (Vanquish), kept the price the same.

I beat Project Horned Owl not too long ago. I think Irritating Stick can be considered done too. I cleared the TV and Arcade course and there were credits at the end of the Arcade ones. I did not clear the AI courses though. Clearing a course in that mode isn't enough to move on the next one. I cleared up to 49, but it won't let me move on to a higher one. It seems if you're not quick enough, it won't let you move on. I actually did all this last year, then did it again fairly recently. In case they're interested, I'm going to tag @Splain, @Jeevan and @RH for this post because they were participants in the N64 contest from a while back where we played the Japanese version, Ucchannanchan no Hono no Challenger: Denryu Iraira Bo. The PS1 version seems a lot easier than the N64 version. You don't select the speed of the stick at the beginning. Instead, you can change the speed at any time with the X and square buttons. It almost makes the analog control pointless since it's a lot easier to change your speed with these buttons than with the tilt of the analog. It also give you a bunch of extra lives and continues. There are 3 difficulty settings, but you still get extra lives and continues on hard. Several of the segments seem easier to navigate as well.

I haven't posted here in a while. I've beaten these since my last post: Avicii Invector Encore Edition Horgihugh and Friends Later Alligator Mad Rat Dead Nickelodeon All Star Brawl Rising Hell (physical release only in Europe) Rivals of Aether Thumper

I'm running out of games to play, so I'll be slowing down soon. I did play through Fantasy Zone though. Also tried to beat the second loop of Deep Blue. I get the feeling you can be put in an impossible situation in the last stage though. I'm not into it enough to keep trying and find out, so I'm done with that one for now.

As @Bearcat-Doug said, it's good to start the game with the center stopper on the lower screen. Don't even try to start scoring on the top screen at the beginning. Let the ball fall to the lower screen and flip all the cards first. You can sometimes aim the ball to fall through to flip the jack, queen and king, but I haven't found a reliable way to flip the 10 or the ace. Keeping the side stoppers is important too. If you lose one of them, it's usually a good idea to try to get it back before trying to get back to the upper screen. Doing so can be risky though. Depend on which stage each of the eggs/chicks are in, I may not bother and I'll just shoot for the upper screen and hope for the best when the ball falls back down. Other than that, it's just getting a feel for how to hit the ball to minimize the risk of it going somewhere you don't want to. Always be mindful of where the moving bar in the upper level is when taking a shot. It's usually good to try to hold the ball with your flipper so you can make a more controlled shot, but be careful when trying to catch when it's moving fast. Doing so may just make it bounce where you don't want it.

You got it! It's Dragon's Fury. You wouldn't be able to recognize it as Devil's Crush from the first two pictures. The first one is from the high scores screen, which is less elaborate in Devil's Crush and doesn't have the image of the woman. The second one is from one of the bonus stages that doesn't exist in Devil's Crush. Only the third picture would be similar in both games.
