February 2014 pick ups, purchases and hauls

[noemann]

I will wait to see what Arseen is using.
I am going to focus on completing my scan collection. I'm starting to buy boxes since so many collectors are idiots about sharing scans. what's the big deal? right? just scan the freeking thing, loser. i get sick of these people.

I am going to try to complete the NOE boxes myself unless i can get some Germans to contribute scans. I got one guy to scan a few boxes for me. I recently got a Turbo Toons manual cover scan (small scan but it helps with my cleaning. the guy is on ebay)

edit:
i think that some of the people that post pics but no scans are not in it for the gaming/art pleasure. i think that they are like pawn shop owners - in it for money, so they could care less about scanning.

My scanner you mean?

Canoon MP-190.
Was 40 or 50 Euros new when I bought it, not even on discount, just low level scanner/printer.

[noemann]

yes, your scanner 
i will look for that one and see if i can find it here.
otherwise, i'll see what is available.
Thanks Arseen

@larryinc64: will you please scan that Mario's Time Machine box? please. I have no scans of this game.

Thats the reason I bought it.

Super Larry to the rescue  you're awesome!
I asked a French guy for a scan and he never answered me. I can't find a scan of the box anywhere.
I'm excited to add this to the collection.

That's weird, I have this game cased so I know I got it from someone on here, but now I can't seem to find it in the forums.
Here it is with custom spine (I think Larry made the spine template) if anybody is interested

SNES - Shadowrun, Zombies ate my Neighbors, Beavis and Butthead, Bart's Nightmare.

NES - Bill & Ted

N64 - Shadow Man

Gamecube - Geist

I know I over paid for Geist, but it was an impulse buy, and I really like it. I also found Shadowrun in a retro game store. I was pretty stunned they even had it. I'm super pumped to play it for the first time.

Another user made that one a while back, and I made the spine, the front is from a bad source and is very blurry. I'm going to make a better cover. I may update my NES one as well.

Not too much bottom of the barrel stuff there. Metal Slug 4 and 5 as well as GUN are excellent titles

[wiggy]

Gun is good, but it's a $1 game at this point. At least at local stores in my area it is.

Yeah I remember playing GUN back in the day when it first came out and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Not quite sure how the title as aged, though

Considering I paid only 35 cents for it I'll call it a win. lol
