Okay so i need some help deciding, also may need some help with covers as i have found some but mostly they have been horizontals or they are wiggys which unfortunately i started my snes covers not using his but using the customs in the database. also found a thread about repro covers with some games i needed but it was posted so long ago i guess the links are no longer connected.... i am looking for vertical customs for these if anyone has them but thats not really the point of this thread. the point is i need help deciding which 10 repro carts to get. the site is having the normal special where if you buy 10 its $300 and im going that route. listed will be the top 14 i believe i want i need it narrowed down to 10....please help me decide

-Final Fantasy V (must have and is the main reason i even looked to order repro's)
-Bahamut Lagoon
-Burnung Heroes
-Dragon Quest 1&2
-Dragon Quest 5
-Dragon Quest 6
-Emerald Dragon
-Zelda : Parallel Worlds
-Zelda : Goddess of Wisdom
-Secret of Mana 2 (an obvious must also)
-Metroid Zero Mission
-Metroid Phazon
-Metroid Redesign
-Treasure of the Rudras

please give me any opinions you have on which 10 i should choose and even your opinions/experience with repro's in general as these will be my first. im also sending in 3 donor carts somewhere else to get nes final fantasy ii, final fantasy iii and tecmo super bowl 2015.

I've played all the Metroid one's and Phazon and Zero Mission were really fun. Redesign does a lot of cool things but they changed the mechanics of wall jumping and It ruined it for me.

^^^ same here. Fuck redesign. What a miserable game. Parallel worlds is the same IMO. If you must, make sure to get the "remodel" version. It's virtually unplayable otherwise.

The nes games from X and they require you to send in a donor cart to put the game in

The snes games from X and they do not require a donor cart but are definitely more pricey unless you go the bundle route of 10 games at once then its a bit affordable per game...

Im assuming i can reply the website names on this forum if not please delete...
