Hero's Shade:
I don't have the money on me right now. Can you hold on to those items until at least tomorrow?
satoshi_matrix:
Sure. How do you intend to pay twilightwolf77? Your total is $45 US
Hero's Shade:
I wish I could send a money order, but I can't. And I can't use Paypal, so that's out of the question. It looks like I'll have to risk sending cash. I just need your mailing address. You can note that to me, if you want.

Reproductions of commercially available games is illegal. If I were to be selling a reproduction of SMB/Duck Hunt for 50 cents that would be illegal even though the original is probably only worth that much. The difference is that these games were never commercially released in North America or elsewhere. As such, no profits are taken away from any individual, company or corporation. These games can be easily found on the Internet for free in .ips patch form, and I encourage you guys to download the files and try them out in your favorite emulator. the roms are free and its not the games themselves that I'm selling. Instead, I feel the gameplay experience with a monitor, keyboard and savestates just isn't as real as holding that clunky rectange controller playing on a tv on your real hardware. And as mentioned, I had to buy these games in the first place, I didn't gert them for free. They were also orignally other games (Faxanadu and Megaman 2) so I had to buy those. Plus the time factored in to created high quality cart labels (the tallest building scene took quite a while to do for Ultra!) So I don't much problem here. Both of these games are much much more than simply graphical hacks like Super Zelda Bros. or something dumb like that. All the levels, music, graphics enemies challenges and even gameplay are completely different from Megaman 2 or any other Megaman game for that matter. Factoring all of this, and $30 each isn't a bad price at all. I really like these games, but I throughly played through them both and I now want to share them with someone else. If these games somehow don't sell on ebay, I'd gladly sell them to someone here. These are truly awesome
