A few portable games I bought recently.  I snagged Tails Adventure for $5 + $2.60 shipping on Ebay - it's normally a $20 - $30 game.  I've never played the Mario Land games for Gameboy so I got them from Gamestop online.

You're in for a treat.  Seriously, those are great games.  Fantastic music, awesome graphics and great game play.  SML2 is somewhat easy, but cranks it up to 11 at the end.  SML3 is a little more balanced, and has a lot of replay value with the different endings. 
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

Am I the only one who thinks Sega CD cases are like the sexiest game cases ever made?

When they are in good condition, they look amazing.  Especially a big collection on a shelf.  But again, only when they are in good condition.

"Yours" are nice, but the ones we had over here where simple jewel cases... :-/

Only Sega Saturn used this format, but also there it was crap > they were made of cardboard without a protective foil...

Some of the early Mega CD cases used this format in EU too - I have Sewer Shark and Ground Zero in PAL long box releases.

Don't want to go too off topic, so.. :)

Didn't expect to find this at such a great price, so I jumped on it. Of course I made a stand for it right away :P



So jealous ;)

Hard to believe that Sony went through 3 different long box variants during that short period before the standard sized jewel cases.
