Correct me if I’m wrong but that’s a real smack in the face to BigMak:-( who was so generous to give us the game and the smiley’s. If we really wanted to I guess we could translate the descriptions language to find out where this guy was from and we might limit the culprit as to who it was. Also this guy was probably a purchaser of Faceball Remastered to narrow it down. I know I know he has the right to do this after all it’s his game but it just doesn’t settle well w me. Maybe it’s because he got his for free. It’s guys like this that make MineStorm decide on not making any more hard copy games that are at one time commercial. they just ruin it for the rest of us.

Brand new Chalvo 55 game. The seller has noticed how quickly these go and upped the price $8 from previous ones he sold (one to me =D). Still, hard to find without going to japanese sites that rarely ship Stateside.

That Faceball auction really bothers me. As morintari said, people like that, and the person that sold Bound High after Minestorm was nice enough to make carts, ruin things like this.

If anyone is looking for Chalvo 55, try typing “super puzzle action gameboy” on ebays search bar. Sometimes cheap copies are listed as “Super Puzzle Action”

He writes in the auction that it is a reproduction and started at 30$. The game also sold out a while ago so it’s not like he bought it and resold it. I think that is everything we can ask for.

It sold for 120$ which is very low taking into account that the game sold out. Of course it’s not nice seeing them pop up on ebay. However, the people who donated have never been told they would receive a physical card. If they don’t want their copy why shouldn’t they be allowed to sell it? It should be ok as long as they are not telling lies.

I’m fine with it..hope they enjoyed it while they had it. Just caught me by surprise 🙂

Pamphlet promoting various games, including “Goldeneye” and “Wario Cruise”. The latter becoming “Wario Land”.

Sadly, no new screenshots for “Goldeneye” — only the same one as already known.

Price $59.99 American (Brookfield, Wisconsin), on sale for 2 more days $53.99 10% off.
Shipping $4.
3 available.

I was amused, then almost uneasy after reading this description. It seems like the seller has some grudge against eBay- two recent negative feedbacks could suggest that maybe he tried appealing them, was subsequently dismissed, and now he’s got a score to settle? Also, if my negative feedback theory is correct, he’s just asking for more aggravation by saying “it has to work” but that it’s untested and he can’t tell if it works.

In case someone is looking for a Christmas present for me… I really would like to try out this thing:

as always someone should watch this guy for DH and or ZR! Or maybe even go and ask this guy about them.

That’s a really nice copy of Virtual Bowling!
Would have bought it, but unfortunately don’t have any clue how Yahoo Auction works… :/

Higher then I would have thought..no inserts for the sides it looks like. But, if I only had room for it 🙂
