Ugh, I actually scooped the same game as that tiny-handed douche in Korea this week? ;)

Well, regardless, here's a couple scoops from the last few weeks.

Wow... that's redonkulous. You can probably get the real version for 600 bucks from some warehouse somewhere... WOW ... haha

.


It doesn't make sense as I bought the same one together with a mini Virtua cop for € 30,- on Ebay a couple of months ago, no way they are worth that .:scratch:

I was so excited lol. Can't wait to test it out today :D.

Post impressions! When I got mine one of the techs at work gave me a junk mainboard and I stripped it bare in minutes giggling the whole time.

I just looked up what a Hakko 808 is, and HOLY CRAP I need one now.
Especially considering the fact that I'm sick and tired of using a simple desoldering pump...

I have a busted genesis I'm gonna test it on :D. And my buddy who owns a local game shop has a vectrex that needs repair lol and a recap so I get to get it on it :D.

Exactly the reason why I bought it. I've been trough 3 of those pumps.

That Hakko 808 is no joke. Was at 300wins' house a while back and he desoldered a few caps in about 20 seconds off of a test board. My jaw dropped.

And, I'm extremely pumped to have gotten an awesome deal on one of my fave neo games on homecart. Blasting away with Ryu now. ;)

When I saw a youtube video of someone unsoldering a 32 pin eprom in about 20 seconds I knew I must have one. The wife knows and even went to buy me one, but was short and refuses to pay with card and cash at the same time. So until she goes back, im stuck with a penis pump....I mean soldering pump

Congrats on Ninja Commando Teddy! That was a big milestone for me too with that game.

On a side note, a little SEGA today

Sorry to disappoint... but it's not a Shinobi record. It's a record for a live action tv show called Kage no Gundan. I used to watch it in the 80s. For years I've been saying that they ripped the cover of that show and used it on Revenge of Shinobi. You know how the Japanese like to steal photos/art to make game covers haha

Thanks, I had to be patient. Basically took cold calling (emailing) people, word of mouth etc. etc. until I stumbled on someone dumping most of their collection. A lead popped up and worked out a nice deal. Still need a Viewpoint but I'll be patient like this one.

And damn you StealthHoarder... this pic reminds me I need that Sega Sports Pad. It works well for Marble Madness on the MD. ;)

It's still pretty cool though. With one disappointment, numerous surprises and delights were made. I especially liked that gold Mario statue that you've gotten in one of your hauls. Keep them coming man, I can't wait for the next set of photos!

Yeah it was quite an effort to track down on my side also... which surprised me a bit because it seems everyone is all gung-ho about MVS stuff now instead of the ol' AES. You really do have to take your time with AES games.

That didn't occur to me about the trackball. I'll have to try it out. Thanks for the idea.

I'm saving the "best" for last... at least I think it's the best. Imho it will be the crown jewel of my old plastic junk pile so far.
