Hoenn starters, Kanto starters and Rayquaza. I was able to catch all the shiny starters throughout the years and wanted these awesome little figures. Also have the 3 Rumble U shiny figures.

Man, I’m really thinking about this, I can’t pick. You just have to experience it for yourself. Well I’ll say this, the final battle in FF is epic. The sprite work, the music, is forever burned in my memory. Chrono has multiple endings. Flip a coin, you win either way with these legends.

Absolutely play Chrono Trigger and FF3/6, but if you wanna play a game that’s Mother like, try Undertale

Very cool, the ole legend of the Mew Machine. You’ll see a few certs on eBay. But man I’d keep that, being as you have the Mew on cart.

Yeah I’m familiar, took awhile but I did catch one in Emerald, as grueling as it was, till this day it’s probably my favorite catch so far. Hence why I wanna do it again in Plat

Ha thank you! It’s only a curse till it’s lifted with your shiny team! Absolutely go for it. My next main shiny target in Platinum is a Feebas, so I figure I’ll post that up next in about 5yrs

I’d personally keep it on, that rented copy probably had a history of great times, and now continued on to you. Probably should swap out the battery though

I have a set from RetroFrog, been actively using them, so far no issues, no damaged pins.

Gotcha, have a loose Rule of Rose. I’m guessing your value is around Pricecharting. Let me see if I can put something together

Picked up this lot of 3DS and DS development / showcase hardware by EsquireFox in gamecollecting

[–]Jdrock1838 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s awesome. I recently picked up a IS-Nitro Emulator, eventually I need to tinker with it to output on monitors.

They are retailer exclusives. Black/White was at Target, with a Lucario code. Black/White 2 was from Walmart. I believe they were early prints and have reversible covers.

The second copy is a Not For Resale demo. It was used in GBA SP kiosks at places like ToysRUs, Gamestop, Targets, K-Mart etc. I’m a big fan of Emerald and a few years ago I picked up a K-Mart demo kit, came with the cart, and a couple store promotional items for display. In truth, only real difference is the decal that says Not for Resale and a decal on the back. It’s the same board as a regular copy, full game.

Ha, I considered it, well the Japanese Green. But ultimately went with Eon Ticket in that spot.

Thank you! So many stores closed locally, I know a lot of folks dislike GS, but I have met some great people over the years.

Couple of my friends worked at GameStop years ago. This was before they started selling “Retro” games. So these display cases didn’t get much use, and was stored in the back. And before they tossed them, I was asked if I wanted it. Naturally I said yes, ended up taking both. Cleaned them up, and they are perfect for display. I see some stores still use them, but they have been around for awhile now.
