TDIRunner:
They just opened a new Vintage Stock not far from my house. So I've got that going for me...... which is nice.

Megatron:
Nice pickup on Siren. I hope you got it at a good price. A really underrated horror gem.

Yeah, based off VGPC, Siren and XIII were a little under market. However, Ultimate Spider-Man LE was super cheap. I think they priced it as though it wasn't the LE. It included the slip cover, case, manual, comic and disc so overall pretty happy.

I played each game for a little while last night. I was really impressed with XIII despite the fact that the controls leave a little to be desired. It has potential to be a really enjoyable game. I also really like the cell shaded graphics for both XIII and Ultimate Spider-Man. But I need more than just a few minutes of playing time on Siren to give any kind of opinion.

Picked up a Sega CD for cheap on EBay as a parts unit. Replaced the fuse and C118 cap and it was as good as new.

Decided to modify it by changing the LED to match my personal Genesis unit. Also put in a CR2032 with ultra slim holder instead of a CR2016 so that I don't need to use a soldering iron to change the battery in the future. Now I need to get two more Sega CD units (one for model 1, one for model 2) so that I can have stock setups besides the ones I change for my liking.

Also finished up replacing caps in all of my consoles (didn't touch the Sega CD as I was waiting to see what I'd need).
