I've Gone PAL

[legend]

Since I live in the U.S., where Nintendo monopolized the market, we didn't get as many awesome games like everyone else. I decided to fix that...by collecting PAL games.

I do plan on playing them (at least the games that won't glitch), but I also want to collect them. I have ordered a few games already and can't wait to get them.

I will admit I bought Mortal Kombat. Yes, I have played it on emulator...but I had fun! And I paid 15 Pounds (which I guess is good for CIB considering eBay wants 50 or more).

I don't think I will go for a complete collection...just focus on games I have had fun with testing on emulator. However, if I see one that's too good of a deal, I will go for it. If I see local games priced well I will go for those as well. For now, my goal is PAL...and I already have a few games I will be looking out for.

Yes £15 is reasonable for MK in this day and age, MKII will cost you more though.

Yeah I have seem some crazy prices for it. I have to wait on buying any more games. If all my purchases go through I should have 7 PAL games coming my way next few weeks. I am very excited.

If you ever want to buy UK games and have them shipped to me and then when you have a few you can send me the money for the postage and I will post on to you.

I do this for another guy on here, he uses my address as one of his ebay shipping addresses, he recently bought 7 games over a period of a few weeks then I sent him all 7 and it only cost him £18.50 in tracked postage.  Most of the games he bought had free domestic P & P so it saved him quite a few $'s.  :-)

Appreciate it. Recently I had Land of Illusion, Asterix and The Terminator come in. Got The Terminator today and haven't got to play.

Asterix is so much fun. I knew LoI was, but I play Asterix more when I'm able.

Terminator is awesome, harder than the Mega Drive version but not as stupidly hard as the GG one.

Tetminator is hard at first...going to take some practice. Took out the HK first round...that was fun!
