I just finished the Purgatory Mode hack of Phantasy Star IV, it was great to have a challenge for one of my favorite games, it wasn't without its flaws and glitches, but overall it was a great hack :)
Now I've finally decided to strike up Chrono Trigger for the first time, so far I'm really enjoying it, the battle system isn't my favorite, but the story is really good :)

I'm still on my Namco kick, and I picked up Namco Gallery Volumes 1 and 2 (japanese only releases for the original Game Boy) at $10 each!

I recently scored the japanese-only Game Boy version of King of Fighters 96 (my favorite KOF game by far) for $9.99.

Just started playing Kirby 64. Found a copy about a week ago for $20, played it for the first time today by hooking up my Nintendo 64. xD

The NES version of Fantasy Zone 2 via Emulator. It was release by Sunsoft on the NES which is rather interesting considering it is a Sega game; and back in those days Sega and Nintendo where not to friendly towards one another.

Tengen brought some of the Famicom ports of SEGA games that Sunsoft did over to America, such as Alien Syndrome and After Burner.

Wow, that's an amazing find. Master System games in that kind of condition must be extremely rare after all this time.

El Viento. Genesis action game that doesn't get nearly enough love.
