TMNT Movie Turtles are Epic!

By : famicomfreak
These are pretty awesome turtles, just awesome. I am so glad I was able to preorder them and get a set for my display. I am definitely getting way too many turtles! The set was Gamestop exclusive and quite tough to find. Preordering definitely helped but I hope they get re-released so that the people that missed out will get a taste of their beauty!

Yu-gi-oh! Finds 022: Ancient Gear Fusion is an Amazing Card~!

By : famicomfreak
This is an amazing card that I've been wanting to add to my Ancient Gear deck for a while. I am so glad I got the set in time before the prices doubled! Why did they doubled? Because of a Link Monster being released for them. Pretty awesome though, I'm glad the archetype is still getting some support. The deck is a lot of fun!

Finds 1210: Kikikaikai & Gunvolt Striker Pack

By : famicomfreak
Kikikaikai for the PC Engine is a very hard game, reminds me a lot of the SNES version just not as expensive even though it's still kinda expensive. Gunvolt Striker Pack is a set of two games in one. i thought it was very appealing and hey two for the price of one.

Finds 1208: Red Alert and Sherlock Homes as Gift!

By : famicomfreak
Two games in one post! This is a funny story, the seller took a little longer to ship Red Alert so he included Sherlock Homes as a gift for being sent out late. You bet I gave him five stars and will definitely buy from him again! Sellers like these are rare!

Finds 1207: Ys 1 & 2 for the Turbografx CD

By : famicomfreak

This is an essential game to have for the Turbografx CD and believe me, there aren't that many games for the CD add-on in the USA but if you are going to get some, this is one of the games you should definitely pick up. Try getting part 3 next although it's a little pricey!

Bootleg Turtles Acquired~!

By : famicomfreak
So that small set of wacky looking turtles is a set in which I totally forgot about till I did a search for bootleg turtles on eBay. I remember having the bootleg Leonardo and destroying the action figure in a matter of a week. Yes, they are quite fragile so can't really play war with them. So, going back to eBay I saw a seller selling the whole set which I jumped one. Apparently, he has a lot of sets of them so if you are looking for them, just search Heroes of the World Fighter and you'll see them show up!

Finds 1206: Gradius 2 for the PC Engine Super CD

By : famicomfreak
Now that I have a PC Engine with CD I can play all these games that came out for it. There are tons of them so I will be adding them little by little to the collection especially some of my favorite ones like Gradius 2. I played this one for the Famicom and totally loved it! This version is just as good except with a more arcade feel and CD quality music of course.

Finds 1205: Dracula X PCE Works, Psikyo Vol 2, and Others

By : famicomfreak
More Limited Run releases as well as Mercs for the Sega Master System. I think Mercs is a decent port although I've played the Genesis version which is superior. Psikyo Volume 2 puts another set of wonderful games into the Switch. Finally, PCE Works released a very special edition of Dracula X for the PC Engine/ Turbo Grafx CD with both Japanese and English version of the game as well as some extras!

Finds 1204: Fighting Street and Salt and Sanctuary

By : famicomfreak

I had to get Fighting Street because it was mainly a must have for the funny voice acting. The gameplay is just horrible but hey this is the original Street Fighter and one of the few ways to play it on a console, if anything, the only way other than in old PCs. Salt and Sanctuary is another one of those nifty Limited Run releases. They are always releasing lots of unique games.

Finds 1203: Prince of Persia for Turbografx and Super System Card

By : famicomfreak
Here is a pretty awesome game with a hilarious cut-scene. Prince of Persia is a classic game that introduced a very precise type of gameplay which made it extremely replayable. Of course, it needed the Super System Card in order to play on the console. It's one of the many additions that are coming in the future.

Finds 1202: Enter PC Engine Duo, an Exquisite Console!

By : famicomfreak
I finally got this console. It's one that I've been wanting for a long time. This is the PC Engine Duo and one of the best features of it was that it was modded to play Turbografx cards. It also plays Turbografx CD games without the need for a region lock. This is an all in one console! I have lots of games coming and I already got some goodies coming. This is another step in having a decent collection.

Finds 1197: Saturday Morning RPG, Antiquia Lost, and Cosmic Star Heroine

By : famicomfreak
Here are some limited run releases! Saturday Morning RPG was one that eluded me when it was released for PS4 years ago by Limited Run Games. Not this time around, although it would've been great to have the collector's edition but funds won't allow that. Regardless what it is, I am glad to have it for the Switch! I also picked up a couple of other games like Antiquia Lost and Cosmic Star Heroine. Check them out and find them if you can as they are unique games.

Some More WIP

By : famicomfreak


So to keep updated with what I have been working on is just more work and more assignments. I have been brainstorming new ideas on what to do about this blog. It's a pretty old blog so maybe shut it down and archive it? Then again, there is still a lot left to do about retro gaming and my collecting days aren't over anytime soon. I will have to figure something out! Game on!
