I laugh at you with derision!

Prototypes are supposed to be ugly, so I personally wouldn't.  Those labels are cool though so I would figure out something to display them together. 

So true!

I can send him a text and let him know you miss his smiling face if you'd like.

I’m part of the never heard of her crowd.  I’ve realized so out of touch with the young people and their music that they don’t even know the music that I’m too old to know any more.  

That is a great van fleet!  10/10

I've never heard of her/him/them/they/she/he either.

You're lucky.  The one I printed up was Etler's list.  Passed on some really rare shit back then in favor of much more common fare because Etler said it was rare.

Gotta track down those Aladdin Deck Enhancer games! 

Everyone misses Johnny Nunchucks...sigh...

Wow, getting really close! 

This is the only game I have ever brought to work and snuck into an empty room to play. Once I was done with the game I was definitely done though.  Still it is a great game. 8

I stopped reading at "I hate Pikmin 3"

Booooooo on you! Booooooooooo

that is crazy! whether they mark the case as reproduction or not, that is just nuts.  they will literally grade anything.  i would love to see a graded wata game graded.  or even better, a wata graded VGA graded game.  it makes me wonder their true motives.  is it to serve the gaming community or is it strictly to make money? it sounds like all they care about is making money.  and with their gold rollies they all wear, it def shows that's what they are doing. 

Right from the start their website said front and center "We Grade Anything!"  so long as it fit into one of their premade cases of course.

We need to separate grading from authentication.
 

You can assign a number based on condition to anything, period. It doesn't matter if its real, fake , counterfeit, pirate, bootleg, whatever. 
 

 

That's right, it says right on there that it's a bootleg. They are telling you how pretty the plastic wrap around the bootleg is. Why that is valuable to anyone is beyond me, but to each their own and all.

I had it pre-ordered and bought it the day it came out.  I completed it then but didn't really care for it. The few times I have tried to play though it since to see if I can find what I'm missing since it gets so much praise, I quickly lost interest.  Does nothing for me.  

NA is long dead and anyone still clinging to those old grievances is just wasting energy.   I think at this point there is a well established separation between NA and VGS.

This thread has made me oddly interested to see if I can build a bicycle generator.

Awesome work man!  Count me among those who 5 years ago thought there was no chance you would see this to the end.  Seriously impressive! 

I ordered because I am a sucker for GPK, $100 shipped with tax was a kick in the nuts though! 

The first game I bought with my own money was Tiger Electronics handheld Double Dragon.

I have a CIB of Earthbound and I really need to play through the entire thing. 

Same here.  I have had it for probably 10 years and still haven't played it.  It's probably because I like my RPGs to be old timey fantasy type with swords and magic, but it's high time.

Same, lol. But sometimes at family gatherings she'll consider maybe picking up a controller for a short round of 4-player Dr. Mario on N64. That game has more power than Tetris Attack in my experience.

Though to give my wife credit, she can name Mario's brother! Take that @Reed Rothchild! 

I'm going to list the best video games my wife will play with me, here goes...

I'm done! 

We should try a game where the card turn in cap is low, like 10. Too much luck involved with cards.

The collector's edition of Octopath 2 is up for pre-order:

https://store.na.square-enix-games.com/en_US/product/769560/octopath-traveler-ii-collector-s-edition-set-switchsel

Seems to be pretty pricey IMHO for what is in it. The game itself looks impressive though.

YIkes!  $180, pricey indeed! 

All bangers so far, pick something for me to get mad about already!
