All of those games range from mediocre to terrible, and they're all overpriced on top of that. Don't bother.

Thanks to everyone for the links.  I've managed to find the names to all of the games in the pictures. 

As I suspected, there aren't too many titles that I would probably be interested in, BUT the employee at the store said that if I could help him out with the titles he would cut me a nice discount.  Probably not with these games, but they have a pretty decent selection there.  Hopefully we can work something out.

Thanks again.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

First picture, bottom row, second over. I have that one, can't remember the name but it's a decent platformer. I think I got it complete on eBay for cheaper then that though.

I've been to the new Game Trader. Completely different guys and stock. They had some decent stuff but prices were a little high imo. I would say it's still worth checking out though.

And sorry, I didn't have any doubles at the moment that I can think of.

I have another related question so I'll just ask it here.

If I do a region modd to the Core Grafx, will I still need an adapter?  I've read online where you need a region mod WITH an adapter and I've read online where you only need the region mod. 

Just to clarify, I'm talking about playing US games on a Japanese console.  I already understand that it is different going the other way around (Japanese games on US system).

The JPN systems are region locked via a chip in them, the US systems are not.  So when making a US system region-free, you can use an adapter, or make a switch that swaps the pins around.  To mod a jpn to play anything, besides the pins, you need to ground pin #29 of the Hu6280 CPU.   

If you used an adapter, a US system can play anything, a JPN needs the CPU grounded before it can use an adapter.

Thanks.  I think I going to just do the straight up mod with region switch and ground pin 29 so I don't have to worry about an adapter.  From what I've looked at, grounding pin 29 is the hardest part and it has to happen whether or not you get an adapter.  So as long as I'm opening the system up and making changes, I might as well do the whole thing and skip the external adapter.
