  1. I’ve decided to part ways with this collection. I’m just putting this out there for offer right now. I’d like to sell it as a lot if possible. I’m not in a hurry to sell. If I was I would just list it all in an eBay auction. Just trying to feel it out for now. Devil’s Crush, Dragon’s Curse, Bomber Man 93, and Blazing Lazers are all complete in case. Jackie Chan Adventure and Falcon are game only. All the rest are game and manual only. The Turbo Express comes with the TV Tuner. It’s been professionally capped and had an LCD upgrade mod. Soldier Blade Bonk 3 Air Zonk Bonk’s Adventure Bonk’s Revenge Turrican Side Arms Darkwing Duck Aero Blasters Parasol Stars Cadash Legendary Axe Legendary Axe II Night Creatures Veigues Gunboat Impossimole Alien Crush Space Harrier Super Star Soldier Vigilante Samurai Ghost Somer Assault Raiden Time Cruise Cratermaze China Warrior Dungeon Explorer Ninja Spririt Military Madness Bomber Man 1 Dragon Spirit Ghost Manor
  2. Chat GPT answered your question without fretting over your dubious use of the word “infuriating”: The prevalence of English on Japanese products and in advertising stems from various factors, including globalization, modernization, and the influence of Western culture. It started gaining traction notably after World War II when Japan opened up to the world economically. English became associated with modernity, sophistication, and global appeal, thus it's often used to add flair or attract attention in marketing and branding efforts, even if the primary audience is Japanese. Additionally, many Japanese people study English in school, so incorporating English words can also appeal to younger generations and those with some proficiency in the language.
  3. Well it seems that that market has decided this game is now worth over $2K… What a world…
  4. It’s about 48”x24” I love this era of Nintendo merchandising. So much cool stuff came out during the console wars!
  5. Sucks that I gotta follow the Crazy Taxi original art guy but here’s what I got lol I’d been looking for this banner for years. I found a couple during that time but the nice ones were too expensive, and the affordable ones were too ugly. Finally found my Goldilocks. The reverse is just as nice as the front. That is to say, not perfect but display worthy. I feel I got a good deal on it.
  6. I appreciate all the insights, fellas. I want to clarify a few things: I didn’t pay NEARLY the current asking price these items. I’ve owned them for years and they just happened to become desirable/valuable I don’t have some baller ass collection with tons of rare and expensive items. I’d wager I have a smaller collection than most of you One of the main reasons I don’t sell is because if I sold these items I would literally never get a chance to own them again. Not just because of the price, but because of their rarity. Over the course of my collecting journey, one thing I’ve learned about myself is I have WAAAAAAYYY more regret for the times I’ve sold than the times I’ve purchased
  7. I swear this isn’t meant to be humble brag thread—just want some perspective. I was at my local game store the other day and got into a bit of a pissing match with the owner and a couple customers. We were all listing off the valuable gaming stuff we own or have owned in the past. I mentioned that I own a single item that I was offered $9K for, and another item for which I was offered $7K. Store owner asked what I did with the money, I explained that I didn’t sell. They all looked at me like I was insane. Even kinda shamed me a little. On the drive home I wondered if I was being selfish for keeping these things. My family isn’t rich, but the truth is we don’t need the money. We live comfortably. But really, who couldn’t use extra money? Especially right now. My wife has NEVER asked me to sell anything I own and she knows about these offers. But still I can’t help but feel a little guilty now. Anyone else ever feel this way about their collection?
  8. Is there a tldr for this thread or do I have to plod through all the bullshit moralizing?
  9. Right??? I preordered mine the day it was available and haven’t heard anything since. Where’s the updates??
  10. I managed to get Jungle Green. I was going for Atomic Purple but it sold out… what I’m really trying to say is, let’s trade RegularGamerGuy
  11. My thoughts on Corey going from mod to public enemy
  12. I see the scalpers are already plying their evil trade, and yet surprising these preorders are still available. I managed to get one ordered at Best Buy and my brother got one at Target. Maybe demand isn’t super high for these? I’m sure lots of folks have multiple Switch consoles by now so maybe there’s a little buyer’s fatigue at play here. Or maybe Nintendo actually plans to meet demand? For the record I only own one Switch, and it’s the first model so I’m ready for the OLED upgrade.
  13. Also grabbed Pushmo Still on the fence about Attack of the Friday Monsters. Has anyone picked that up? Any good?
  14. Anyone else experiencing a bit of eShop FOMO? Got any last minute recommendations? Here’s a list of my recent purchases for 3DS Fantasy Life DLC Liberation Maiden Mutant Mudd games (currently on sale) Phoenix Wright 3DS exclusives (currently on sale) Gotta Protector Radiant Historia DLC
