Finally dropped some coin on this guy.

One of the last good expensive nes games I needed

I am wondering if it worth it for keep the Metal Gear Solid HD collection PS3 if I am getting the Metal Gear Solid Legacy collection?

How much could you even get for the HD Collection? I picked it up for only $20 new and that was before the Legacy Collection was ever even announced. No point of dumping it if you can't get anything for it.

I am not sure how much I could sell it for but, it's still sealed.

Nice pickup on RR2, glad I got mine for cheap when I did lol.  Just after power blade 2 for a while now but feker keeps going up in price

Not much. I was eye-balling used copies for around $8 the other day that were piled on new copies for $20.

[Maben]

I am considering getting the Metal Gear Solid Legacy collection as well.  I was thinking about selling my original copies of MGS 1, 2, 3, and 4 but I realized I'm gonna get diddly squat for them at this point.  I might as well just hang on to them as a collector's item.

I have no interest in the Legacy collection. I already have the HD collection with 2, 3, and Peace Walker (better than playing on PSP), I also have 4, and MGS1 downloaded off the PSN. I do wish they had a remastered version of The Twin Snakes in the set rather than the PS1 version..or both.

But I ordered Breath of Fire 3 on PSP from the UK, waiting for it to come on over. I am surprised the game isn't more expensive.

Picked up something a little bit different over the weekend while I was visiting some friends out of town... Bloomington, IN has this really cool underground / local music scene and a lot of the local bands release their work on cassettes.  Yes, thats right, cassettes.  Well, one local label released some NES soundtracks on cassettes. From there site "Transferred directly from the NSF files found inside all NES cartridges for the utmost accuracy in reproduction, then duplicated onto analog for nostalgic recreation of childhood environment."  I missed the first batch that came out a couple years ago but they just released a second batch and I was able to pick up the 2 I was looking for.



Got the LOZ for myself and the Castlevania for a friend.

You can find some more info on them here: http://aurisapothecary.org/NEWS-ARCHIVE.html#051513

damn i want some of these! The store is pretty much sold out though on the link you provided ; ;

A couple of games from a local used game store. Price 0 € after I traded in some PS1 stuff. The previous (original?) owner of Astyanax is Nick Perinovic judging from the backside. Thanks Nick!

If it's marker and won't come off you can always swap the back part of the cart out with a better condition one from a double game if you have any

[Azazell0]

I don't actually mind it too much. I like the fact that these carts are old and seen the world, if anything, it would be really cool to know who all have owned this particular cart and where in the world it has been.

[Blueprint]

Finally got my mega cart lot pick
$155 for 120 games, a few gems , but i got a lot of genesis games i didnt have yet. will eventually sell some games that i already have, not many sports

I have been wanting a remastered Twin Snakes for a while as well. I have the HD collection as well as Peace Walker on PSP, the original PS2 games, and the original PS1 game. The only thing I don't have that the Legacy Collection does is VR Missions (digital download only) and the digital graphic novels. Is that worth $49.99? Nope. I can probably grab that as a PS1 disc for like $5, and I don't really care about the digital graphic novels. If they had released MGS1 in HD, I may have considered it.
