whats the mew bug?

It’s been done. He hasn’t offered any advice.

props for the dROMa thing.

Don’t get me wrong, DogP, I don’t have anything against anything you’ve done. You’re an honest guy.

The 20th anniversary edition of gameboy micro is sought after by some and rising in value.

People can believe what they want. You and me know whats true and what isn’t, Krisse. I’ve admitted to my actions but you have lied about yours.

I’ll agree with most of Krisse’s history of Bound High, except for a few wrongful assumptions about my past and a few clever omissions from his.

I did receive the code when he said I did. I did not start selling it then. The process to get the code was very difficult. Krisse lied to me all along the way in order to prevent me from getting the code. He even went as far as to get the creator of the game to promise not to share his own code with anyone else. Upon finding out the ware Krisse handled his code, the creator was very upset. Getting the compiled was just as difficult as obtaining it in the first place.

It was during that time that Krisse offered to sell me the four rare japanese roms that weren’t available at the time. I declined his offer. Once I got my hands on Bound High he gave them to me as a peace offering. I eventually used them in a trade and from there they were leaked. Krisse did ask me not to trade them but I can only feel so guilty for doing so see as how Krisse had offered me multiple items over the past few years which he had sworn he would not give out. Those same four games had been offered to be publicly dumped by private owners of the original copies, though Krisse would not allow it. He has done a great deal to control the scene for his benefit. He has deleted many posts over the years where people were offering to share Bound High or the other unreleased roms.

The deal I had for Faceball was very real. The word ‘was’ was chosen carefully because I am assuming at this point the deal will be off. As I stated to anyone who I gave Bound High to, the money was intended to help procure Faceball not only for myself, but for them as well. The asking price for the game was quite high. I never received enough funds to pay for even a quarter of the asking price. My deal with the Bound High crew is still valid, though I think it will be much harder to get the game for everyone now. I am out a few thousand dollars from bad trades or people who flat out lied to me. On top of that I have a rather large personal financial problem that has created a situation where I cannot afford to buy these games on my own. That is why I tried to gather a group to help fund the purchases. In making such a large deal out of this I think Krisse has shot everyone of us in the foot.

I would also like to mention that Krisse does not have the squeaky clean past he would like you to believe. Many people I spoke with over the past few years were offered various rom sales from him, including Bound High. He also tried to leverage himself as a needless middle man in many deals, including a deal involving DogP’s Faceball. Krisse also has created a few aliases, though I feel no need to name them seeing as most of their business was done privately. He has also used his abilities as the website administrator to read private messages in order to block trades. I have had multiple trades put together over the past few years but Krisse has stolen my sources and cut me out, even though he acted as if we were partners. He didn’t even know what many other members on here had in their collections because there was not enough trust to tell him.

If a few people are mad at me because more people now have a few games, I guess I can live with that. I think far more people have benefited from my actions then been hurt by them. I did not cross those I did business with, I have crossed the big collectors. I offered people a private trade that allowed them to play a game they would have never otherwise had the chance to play. I’m sure there will be a public release eventually but I know perfectly well that it wouldn’t have happened without this current upset.

I still hope we are able to discover more unreleased games. The value, whether financial or as trade, of Bound High has been hurt by this public outcry from Krisse. It is yet another attempt to stifle the trading scene. The community as a whole would greatly benefit from people working together instead of everyone sneaking around trying to have the biggest collection. Pride is not needed in a scene as small as ours. Neither is endless internet arguing and drama. I have only said my side of the story as a rebuttal. I do not intend to perpetuate anything.

I was not the one selling it on craigslist or eBay. I’m not the only one who has these games. Others have sold them in the past and will in the future. My deal for faceball was very real. I’m hoping this doesn’t end up being known to my faceball source or I’m sure the deal will be off. I understand why some of you are upset but I never ripped anyone off. Everyone who wanted the game from me got it. I didn’t steal. It took me thousands of dollars and hours of time to get these. A certain level of compensation doesn’t seem unjust. Surely I was not given these items for nothing. It takes skill, time, money and proper contacts to procure such rarities. Before I did this there was not a known working version of the game and very few people even had the shit version. So while some of you may be upset, just be glad to have gottn the game out of the closed hands who were not willing to share.

Is this “good version” you claim to have the same version you tried to sell me last month, which you said was a cart dump, and which you said you’d never offered to anyone else?

It is, and at the time I hadn’t offered it to anyone else. I certainly wouldn’t be giving it to some guy on craigslist, I can tell you that much. Keep that stuff in the community. I’ve since found out its not a cart dump and that I paid $3000k for a compiled game 8-O. At least it runs perfectly.

[jojobean]

You should probably not but things like that on craigslist.

And krisse, you should really get your facts straight before you start blaming me and using paypal dispute services to steal away money you gave me. The last person I would trust with something like that is some random guy on craigslist. No offense, OP.
