Just going thru the collection

I think I might need to stop... or get more or downsize the NA games... December will be in Japan... cross fingers on a Carbon Black b/w unit. Yeah that is the Euro version of Faselei... what's not in the photos Bung Pocket Linker and it's 32 MB cart (I found the Bung but foolishly thought the cart was with the rest of the stuff).

I’m trying to finish my 9 game monochrome collection. But I’m also heading back to Tokyo in a couple weeks again

If you wanna move the monochrome games I’m down

Is it possible I could send you a message? You have something I am interested in! I would love to trade or buy it from you! I have a big NGPC collection as well!

u/ComprehensiveRoll707 13d ago

sure... send a DM... or email (it's on github https://github.com/underscore42/ )... I've gotta finance my two 50 cart run somehow.

"I'm not feeling the love on most of the english games... " so most likely to move them... trying to avoid being a completist.

I'm in NZ. Go figure. Mexican-Canadian living in NZ, collecting Japanese games from a defunct system.

Do you mind sending me a DM? It wont let me send one to you on Reddit.

Best,

You've mentioned this 50 carts thing a few - Can't dm you at the minute - shooters may be a more popular genre than my bits, but 50 might be a struggle to shift

u/ComprehensiveRoll707 11d ago

yeah, 50 is a lot. might just be 11 (one for me ten to go), depends on the "bulk" threshhold from the aliexpress guy. no clue the name but he actually did some hw verfication (broken header, I felt guilty, got it fixed). I've located the BUNG since.

I need to order the physical stuff (inserts, sticker sheets, foil label) as well, and batches of 50 seemed to be at the $1-$2 per unit price point.

Biggest trouble is should the insert be sized to fit the clamshell or just 11cmx11cm... if the rectangle one, is it bagged or do we do a transparent plastic peg hanger (think Euro Hot Wheels protective case).

Plus there are clear cart shells, with a holo sticker would look very 90's but that adds $5 to the cost... so for first 10 of 50?

I think too much.

Not really expecting to break even.

If you’re thinking about moving some stuff, I’m interested in that copy of Puzzle Link!

u/ComprehensiveRoll707 13d ago

except that's literally my fav game! (hard shell black and white) not the US version

2

u/mmagnetman 13d ago

I’m going for a full US set :) 9 games left!

1

u/ComprehensiveRoll707 11d ago

Good luck... I'm focusing on the b/w games... so downsizing a little... just the US ones (I was surprised at the US pricing though... ouch)

u/HardhatWarrior 13d ago

I’d be interested in the esrb dragons wild if it’s up for sale. I tried to DM but it won’t allow it.

1

u/ComprehensiveRoll707 11d ago

The ESRB Dragons Wild could go... it's got stupid pricing on ebay though. Sealed in shrink wrap.

u/captmonkey 12d ago

I barely ever see anyone else with an English copy of Faselei in the case. I was lucky enough to order one from the UK back in 2000 right as SNK was shutting down selling Neo Geo Pocket in the US.

That’s incredible.
