PS1 imports
Reply #106 - 30. Jun 2007 at 21:15

While it's not NES, it's still game related. Found6 PS1 imports today while thrifting. They were $2.99 each.

Kingsley's Adventure
Psychic Force 2
Final Fantasy Anthology
Fisherman's Bait
Toshinden Subaru
Mighty Hits

Funny thing about them is when I look them up on the net, the covers and labels on what I have are mostly different than what I find online. So they may actually be counterfit imports. However, they are real discs that have been pressed, not copies. I know that because the names of the games are pressed into the ring on the back, and you can't do that with copies. And they all work fine.

I ended up getting quite a bit of stuff in while I was on holiday, so I decided to take a pic of all of the NES accessories as it's been a while since I've practically received this many all at once:

For those wondering, the Stereo Sound zapper clone has a built-in speaker that makes a shooting sound when the trigger is pulled Wink

I found something that at first glance seemed worthless, but now I'm not so sure.

Inside a boxed Fester's Quest, there was a Sunsoft Player's Guide for Fester's Quest. It was printed with a price f $1.95 which implies to me that people who owed Fester's Quest could order these through mail order from Sunsoft directly.

I'll try to remember to scan it in and post it.

That's awesome! Was it folded or how large is it?

I've only had two good finds in my life. Several years ago I was lucky enough to snab a still-sealed copy of Tengen Tetris for $35 on Ebay. I held onto it for a couple months, then sold it for $150. About a year later I bought another still-sealed Tengen Tetris for about the same price and sold that for $150 as well.

It's amazing how low an Ebay item will go when there's no scans or details to the description.
