Collector/Buyfag Thread: NEC Edition

We're halfway into March anons, what have you picked up or are looking to pick up?

Is a Nomad worth picking up without any upgrades? Can't imagine the batteries last long at all nowadays. Need a better TV since mine can't handle 60hz mode on my Mega Drive mark 1 well.

Finally found most of my super nintendo shit.
Also bought a copy of chrono trigger for "way too much, but still much cheaper than buying it off ebay.)

Already posted in the other thread >>9050542. OP, you've got like three of these up right now (not that I blame you given current posting issues), pick one and get the others deleted.


What, they were lost?

Part of why I'm glad the DS version's a pretty solid version, since it's cheaper than the SNES cart.

Still can't believe PAL regions had to wait 14 years for an official release of that game.

In my closet, yeah, buried under a mess of wires boxes and dvd. i just didn't really give enough of a shit to find it because my TV is too modern to use them, without something like a retron 5.

Ah. Never had an SNES myself (and much as I'd like to the prices on the games I'd like are way too expensive), but what sort of wires do they use in the back as far as connecting with a TV? Got me wondering if my TV could even connect with them (it's an HDTV, but still takes cords for stuff like the PS2).

I finally added a Dreamcast to my collection today. Got it along with 3 controllers, 2 VMUs, a rumble pack, and a good quality copy of Soul Reaver, all for $24 plus a trade of 4 of my Genesis games (they were shit).

One of the VMU's had a battery explode in it but I took some baking soda to it and cleaned it up and now it's working fine. The other one is just dead batteries, and the Dreamcast itself has a dead clock battery that I'll have to replace later.

All in all I'm pretty satisfied with the haul.

Here's >>9049743 if you want more ideas of things to look into. Just keep in mind that some of those never came west, or farther west than Europe on the system.

If you TV can accept RF or god forbid composite it can run a super nintendo in theory. In practice it looks like absolute shit because the snes to just too old, if i remember this right, the resolution snes runs at just confuses the fuck out of most modern HDTVs(or at least the ones with shit scalers?). The result is they take the 240i/p resolution and output it at 1080i/p which produces a jittery, stretched out and washed out mess.

There are tons of methods around this, the one that involves the least modding(unless you own a snes mini) are these custom made component cables

Thanks, user! The only games I really had in mind were crazy taxi and shenmue, but I forgot about chuchu rocket and some of the other ones on there that I've always been told to play.

How's your collection going?

Went to goodwill yesterday found a bunch of ps1 survival horror for 3 bucks each. I found silent hill 1 alone in the dark, resident evil survivor and resident evil directors cut. All of them in mint condition also found a vita tv for 20 bucks but i don't own a vita but still cool to see it that cheap.
