The Ebay Topic
scarmullet:
I recently picked up another 360 on Ebay due to some games I would like to play like some of the exclusive cRPGs and some of the Danmaku games. $90 with no controllers but 2 games; C&C3, and Lost Planet.
Jeeze, another system bought without controllers, I'm on a roll.

I think it is becuase the seller is from HK, Hong Kong?

Fake.
And here's the pic from the auction.

When I used to work at a Game Crazy one of my employees once traded in a copy of "Pokemon Emerald 2" for GBA. If you put it in and played it, it worked for about 5 minutes and was a sidescroller, not an RPG.
(Solid first post if I do say so myself.)

and I'm watch at least another half dozen systems.

I've been doing something similar - I recently picked up:
NES - $20, plus 2 controllers, 2 gray zappers, and SMB/Duck Hunt
Sega CDX - $125, plus 17 Sega CD games including the Not For Resale Sonic CD, Ecco and Sega Classics 5-in-1 (kind of a steal, the seller though it was busted, but he/she had just plugged in the composite jacks wrong, works great)
Sega CDX bag - $30, I'm actually using it a lot :P
Game Gear - $25, plus a few games, occasionally has powering on issues, but great otherwise
I'm currently watching or trying to track down:
GB Pocket (blue)
GBA SP AGS-101 (graphite)
GB Micro (silver, black faceplate)
Neo Geo Pocket Color (stone blue, black or silver)
DS phat (my original was borrowed and lost...)
DSi XL (blue or black)
I hadn't even heard of the Pocketstation until your post. :P

Nice!
It doesn't sound like we're watching any of the same auctions, which is good ;)
I wanted a Pocketstation for so long. I've kicked myself for years because I didn't just buy one when they were available at retail. But, it seems the prices for them have sorta bottomed out, so I grabbed one :)
As I understand it, there are a few US games that still have support for the device built in, including Final Fantasy VIII :o
I'm going to attempt to make a SwanCryatal LIGHT with the 2nd one. It's the same color as my other one, so it's not nearly as exciting to get it as I am some of the other stuff, I just couldn't pass up the price. They usuall go for 60-70 loose with no games.

On the topic of eBay, I have some PlayStation 3 games up for auction. Please check it out if interested.

I also recently purchased a fake game on eBay. I am usually careful about paying attention to certain giveaways but this one was different. The game was Tetris DS. The picture was not what I received. The cover was completely different, the game case was poorly pieced together, and the cart was not authentic Nintendo. When I put the game in, the DS reads the game as a Star Wars game from Ubisoft. I think that is a problem with Tetris DS, there are a lot of fakes out there of it.
