Others
Total Carnage SNES (well it was cheap o_o)

Total Cost with various shipping (from various places in usa and canada): 62 for about ~40 carts, a few boxed and some pretty obscure titles (Quatro Adventure and Pasa Medes)

I must say this is a pretty good haul considering the fact that locally, people charge 5$ a title, and thats actually IF you find nes games locally..

COMMENTS?!

 

[demi]

That is a good haul! I think.

I bought some games off a guy at work the other day:

Final Fantasy
Adventure Island
Metroid
Kid Icarus
Rad Racer

Only $20! I thought it was good at least.

I only have 76 titles, only two of which are complete (Star Tropics 1 and 2).

[captainbiotch]

Skyshark was one of my favorite games as a kid :lol It's still pretty fun actually. Love the music.

 

[Kobun Heat]

demi: That's not bad. Any come with box/manual?

I'm still building up my NES collection, while fennec fox got rid of his just last year (and I cashed in on that deal, lemme tell ya!). It's a funny old world.

 

[demi]

Nah, as I said, they're all carts except both Star Tropics (because they are just that awesome).

 

[fennec fox]

Jesus Chris, kobun, are you already home?

 

[shuri]

The big games are incredible easy to find, so for me, its all about hunting down crap titles that are virtually unplayable. I played the big titles to death back in the days, and I just have no interest in paying extra money for them, unless its a special personal cult title.

My next targets for acquisitions are Archon, Clash at Demonhead, Deja Vu, those damn Carmen San Diego games, the first gen titles (galaxian, urban fighter, Golf, Soccer)

I actually sold almost my nes titles back in the days to get STAR FOX when it came out. I couldnt find a few titles, so they were spared the humiliation of being traded-in. I had about 30 games too

 

[Kobun Heat]

Jesus Chris, kobun, are you already home?

No. I'm POSTING FROM THE TAXI.

Anyway: still not bad, demi.

 

[Do The Mario]

Is wizards and warriors II any good?

I could have picked up a copy for $10au ($7US) today.

 

[etiolate]

- Werewolf : The Last Warrior (Includes Booklet)

I have this game! Never got past the second level I think.

 

[Screenboy]

Shit Titles:
- Talespin

HOW DARE YOU?!

[mosaic]

Someone set this man up an NES intervention.

I remember back in the day when my NES collection was upward of 700 carts... so many I didn't even know everything I had. It wasn't easy eBaying / giving away most of those, but thank goodness I did... no one but no one should be found owning an entire Wisdom Tree / Color Dreams library complete with color variations. Then again, I rather enjoyed tossing baby Moses into the nile.

The only thing more addictive than NES collecting is heroin.

 

[FortNinety]

If you want a really bad NES game, get Who Framed Roger Rabbit or Bart vs the Sapce Mutants. Those two are total shit.

 

[Justin Bailey]

Also Ghostbusters, that game sucks ass.

 

[sprsk]

Wheres all the color dreams games?

tsk tsk tsk

 

[Shouta]

Crash N'the Boys Street Challenge rocked. Shuri = WORTHLESS

 

[The End]

Games i need to pick up (most of which i once owned) now that i have a working Neo FC Super Console

Guardian Legend (god, i'd love the FC version of this)
Stinger
Life Force
1943
Zanac (FC)

 

[shuri]

You have a neo fami? How is it?

 

[The End]

i've got the "Yobo" version, which has the convert that sits almost-flush, so it's pretty nice.

It's a solid piece of hardware. It's pretty tiny, like a little bigger than a discman and twice as thick. It plays everything i've tried on it (mario, abadox, tetris) just fine. The composite out seems to be about as clean as the NES is capable of outputting as well. The non-standard controller ports are kind of a letdown, but otherwise it's pretty solid. I found mine for $30 at one of those As Seen on TV stores at the mall.

 

[Zelda-Bitch]

HEY! TIGER HELI was NOT a shit game BUSTER! >:|

 

[shuri]

Neat. I'm going to get one

 

[Zelda-Bitch]

Is wizards and warriors II any good?

I could have picked up a copy for $10au ($7US) today.

YES! Wizards and Warriors 1 and 2 were awesome!

 

[The End]

i must find my copy of Blaster Master.

 

[Link316]

Shit Titles:

- Ninja Crusaders
- The Adventures of Gilligans Island
- Talespin
- Crash 'n the Boys: Street Challenge

COMMENTS?!

give those games a try, they're not shit titles

 

[Forgotten Ancient]

Base Wars is a shit title?

Man...I used to have a blast beating the shit out of my brother with the "battle gimmick" when he tried getting me out at first.

I think your list needs a bit or re-evaluation. You appear to have gotten a lot better titles than you might think.

 

[RevenantKioku]

Crash 'n the Boys: Street Challenge totally rocks. Get the four player adapter and go to fucking town.

 

[FortNinety]

Also Ghostbusters, that game sucks ass.

This man speaks the truth.

 

[djtiesto]

What's P'Radikus Conflict?

Oh yeah, get Mighty Bomb Jack (that game is badass) and definitely get Wrecking Crew... I *LOVE* that game for some reason! And get some of the Lolo games. Those are some random NES suggestions for you

 

[Sho Nuff]

For shit, you need

MASTER CHU AND THE DRUNKARD HU

 

[CO_Andy]

Roger Clemens : Major League Baseball iz one of my favorite games (although i've played only like 3 baseball games in my entire life).

You know the game was rereleased on the SNES.

 

[Sp3eD]

Tecmo NBA Basketball was the greatest basketball game on the system.

 

[Kobun Heat]

Bart vs. the Space Mutants wasn't THAT bad. Was it? I remember actually beating the game, no cheating or anything. I even completed Bart vs. the World.

 

[Unison]

Palamedes is not shit at all!!!! Try it in two player mode. It's kinda like Bust a Move, but the object is to create good poker hands with the dice that you shoot (i.e. a full house, four of a kind, etc). Very recommended!!!

(That's the arcade version)

Another unhearlded NES puzzle game I recommend is Krazy Kreatures. It's a game where you match Kreatures before the screen fills up with them. Different types of creatures need different numbers touching to trigger a match. Sounds retarded, but it's a great game. I'd love to see a DS version!

Boy is it ugly! :lol

 

[DDayton]

My NES collecting is getting rather scary, but I have managed to get all the titles I've actually wanted.

If there are any classic game collectors with a Palm device, I've thrown together a rather handy NES (and other) game database -- it's great for keeping track of what you own, the condition, etc. Before I carried it around with me, I relied on my memory... which resulted in multiple copies of "slightly obscure sounding" titles. Extra Dungeon Magic games.... 5 copies of Final Fantasy (yeah, I know, EB sells it for $35, but that doesn't help me).

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

If you want a really bad NES game, get Who Framed Roger Rabbit or Bart vs the Sapce Mutants. Those two are total shit.

No way! I loved this game when it was first released, and still play it occasionally. True, the game is insidiously easy once you know how to search for the missing pieces of the Will, but it's always fun to just drive around in that yellow cab to see if you can outrun the Toon Patrol.

Believe it or not, this was one of the earliest games developed by RARE.
