It’s been a busy week.. first I got this huuuge package of games from Japan:
Sorting, cleaning, organizing and trying them all out has been taking some time. BTW, I really love the japanese store stickers, they are always so easy to just peel off without any effort! :D And from this Ebay seller the stickers even had a corner folded in so it was really easy to grip and rip ^^
Apart from that I have been updating my Famicom Collection, now I am finished with “S” which was the largest letter! 64 games just starting with the letter “S”! I also added a few other new additions like Lot Lot, Mississippi Satsujin Jiken, Madara, Maniac Mansion, Meikyuu Jima (Kickle Cubicle), Ninja Jajamara Kun, Obake no Q Tarou, Paaman, Perfect Bowling, Puzslot, Quinty etc.. You can check them all out in my Famicom Collection >>
Some games I would like to highlight:
Paaman
A really fun platformer, where each boss battle is like a boardgame race to the finish line, even though it’s in japanese it’s quite easy to follow ^_^
Puzslot
A fun puzzle game, kind of like Columns where you have to match colors and shapes falling down in pairs, except here you first have to stop the slot-machine-like pieces so it’s quite random what you will get and if you don’t stop them fast enough you won’t have time to place them correctly.
Salamander (Life Force)
I love this shooter!! Great music, great gameplay ^_^
Kyattou Ninden Teyandee (Samurai Pizza Cats)
Another game I added today. A really fun platformer where you can change between different cat characters that have various abilities :)
Seikima II: Akuma no Gyakushu
An entertaining platformer based on a heavy metal band. It’s really hard though.
Seirei Densetsu Lickle (Little Samson)
A great platformer that I think most people know about already. It looks really great, and sounds really great and it’s fun to play ^_^
Shufflepuck Café
A really interesting air hockey type game. I’ve made a review of it here >>
Splatterhouse Wanpaku Graffiti
A really cute but still brutal platformer! I’ve made a review of it here >>
Star Wars
Gotta love Star Wars ^^ This one is a platformer. It’s really hard!! AVGN mentions it in his Star Wars episode >>
Street Fighter 2010
A really challenging and well made platformer. AVGN has a great review of this one as well, check it out here >>
Super Mario USA
And of course I have added all of my Super Mario games for the Famicom as well. Super Mario USA is the Japanese release of the PAL/NTSC Super Mario Bros 2 :)
I remember playing Shufflepuck Café on the Amiga.
Cool! I didn’t know it was ever released for any other systems ^_^ did it look the same? Was it just as hard?? :D
I feel the same way. It’s really nice when price tags and any other stickers peal off easily and cleanly. I’ve also received a lot of games from Japan and in my experience these sellers really do understand this.
I need your job! Whatever it is you do I need that money. I love how fast and furiously you get games!
How often do your neighbors see a truck backing up to your home? :P
You’re collection is awesome. I don’t think it will be long before you’re out of Super Famicom games to collect!
Once upon a time I use to think our collections were close in numbers. Now I’m sure those days are long gone :)
You keep me inspired!
They sure do!
Haha well, I am just lucky finding most of the stuff quite cheaply ^_^ All the games on the picture was a total of about 300 USD, which is good since almost all of them were complete and in excellent condition :D
Well they don’t deliver it like that ;D I get a not to go pick it up ^_^ My neighbors see me carrying home large boxes every other week though haha
Yeah, there’ sooo many Super Famicom games out there.. I only have a bit less than 100 right now, but I have established that I only want to collect boxed Super Famicom games since they don’t have end labels and the cartridges are ugly and difficult to store. It’s easier when they’re boxed ^^
I bet you still have more Sega games than me though! I collect for everything so that’s probably why I’m getting a leap ;D
wow, these are cool!! i would love to find a copy of plok on sfc. Ebay is far to expensive and Australia has nothing lol
I’ve actually never heard of Plok! But after googling it I recognized your avatar ;D
It wasn’t that hard to find on Ebay though ;D Check this one out >>
wow that metal band game looks rad!
It is quite cool! I played it a few days ago with a friend and we got pretty far ^_^ You have to save your bandmates, and paths unlock when you’ve collected everything on a stage, but there’s many directions to take so you will end up running back and forth with health that is continuously decreasing. It’s tricky ^_^
sounds like fun!
It is! But still the music is kind of crappy ;D haha
