The three carriages are meant for transporting bread rolls in my bakery, which I have now used... well, for a purpose originally not intended...
The old-style cases lie on black aluminium tins. Enjoy!
No fading on those spines .
First carriage on the front... english AES. Old-style cases lying like fresh buns inside - looks nice and avoids cracking .
One of the crispy back sides. Did I hear the silent reproach of 'hording'? Well, it's a collectors thing, I guess... nothing sinister, though .
Be it as it may with this dog-tag mascott straight out of Watts (it has a definite Menace II Society feel), I am quite fond of the deep black framework, as if some unprocessed crude oil became vector graphics...
...and believe it or not, WH2J was actually the toughest one to get. I put so much attention on finding a copy, that I ended up having ...two. But no "Death Match" in either of them.
The japanese side of things, ...the spines, it seems, are like neons on an ovecrowded street in Osaka... cheap but effective .
To paraphrase Francis J. Underwood: "You know what I like about old-style cased games? ...They stack so well."
Second part out of three for the jpn carts. Careful though, last one is a kraut in samurai's clothing.
Slug 3's as in first and second run...
The carton-box run, along with some unplayables, due to the obvious language barrier. It's a pity, cos the NGMJ-0 is ready to go...
Still got my first game I purchased and, nothing less, played to death. No 1cc, still, I managed to beat the last spideresque boss... God save the memory card .
If you think, that this insert comes a bit Too $hort, then you're right... I cut the whitened slack off in the name of questionable aesthetics... back then I wasn't a collector, those were the days...
So, the insert's mutilated, the case's fallin' apart from cracs and bruises in- and outside, the label's coming off and don't let me count on those insertion marks, hell, let there be fading, too... what can I say, that Viewpoint is a Rosebud of it's own.
