yeah, i know, i spent a lot. it was all the Super Famicom's fault: i just couldn't help but buy it. and yes, i do think it was a little pricey (though the price was haggled down a measly 3 dollars, from $45), but to be honest, this was the first one i've ever seen "in the wild", and the 4 games it came with were such great titles that i couldn't resist. the only downside?
this:
a small inch (or so) sized missing piece that chipped off at some point. even so, everything works great, and is in really great condition, aside from that chipped piece. Parodius is really fun, and noting all the differences in Super Mario Collection (aka "All Stars") was neat. i'm happy to add this little group to my collection. i already have some Super Fami titles which i had previously been playing on my SNES, but now i can play them on their original system.
oh, and the Genesis/Sega CD stuff: okay, so, nothing too amazing right? when i picked up the CD games, the guy selling said that the Star Wars disc was missing and there was a different game inside... i open the case and find...
this:
he tells me he's sorry that the wrong game is in there. i smile and say, "aw, that's okay, i'll still take it." each of the games was a dollar, and i didn't bother haggling. that was plenty cheap for me. the only downside to Shining Force is that the disc is
immaculate. i mean, spotless, scratch-free, factory-fresh perfection, which makes it extra sad that the case is MIA. oh well. still worth a buck any day!
not a bad day in all.
