Topic: Your latest retro purchase

Yeah, that does seem to be a very high price to pay for ToP. I got mine many years ago, but then it was like $30 complete.

I looked less than a year ago. Could've sworn it averaged around $30-$40, with the PSOne version averaging less than $20.

i feel sorry for you that you got an orange one XD i have an orange controller though, so it's a pity i have that on it's own.

@0LD_SK0OL_PUNK - What's wrong with the color orange?

it looks like a child's building block! the silver ones just look so cool.

I have the Silver Limited Edition Gamecube.

The orange is cool though.

I always liked the orange and purple ones. Liked them cause they were obscure colors for a console.

I got an orange Game Boy Player with my black GameCube.
I didn't even know the orange GBP was released in the US (I thought we got black only) but it apparently must have (judging by the FCC sticker on it).

My latest? A few Rare games. Perfect Dark N64 CIB, Perfect Dark GBC new, Conker's Pocket Tales cart+manual.
I'm surprised both PD games are still pretty cheap even for new, though I wasn't quite interested to pay the extra bucks for a new N64 PD over used.
I thought I heard something about it, but does Conker actually have gameplay differences in monochrome and color modes?

I too had an orange controller untill I discovered the beauty that was the Wavebird. Because I could get the orange controller in NA I just assumed that the orange GC was available in NA as well. I had the silver GC btw.

I searched EVERYWHERE for a silver wavebird, got that grey one in the end..

I have both the silver and the grey one. The silver one I found at Gamestop years ago back during the GC era and the grey one I got from Gamestop shortly after I bought my Wii. Now that Gamestop doesnt carry GC stuff anymore your best bet to find a Wavebird is either online or a thrift store.

Those Wavebirds never lasted for us. They all busted, yet our Wired ones (which we've had longer and used almost as much as the Wavebirds) are in great condition.

I have always had the opposite problem, the Wavebirds last for me but the corded ones always die quickly. Of course the big thing that bugged me with the GC corded controllers was how short the cords were compared to the PS2 and the Xbox cords.

im thinking of going as a current gen gamer for halloween, after all, youve got to dress up as something youre not on halloween

i feel sorry for you that you got an orange one

dont feel sorry, ive also got black, indigo, pearl white and three platinum Cubes. With matching controllers of course

mind if i (permanently) borrow some platinum controllers?

Been waiting for a "reasonable price" to get these two SNES must have's for my collection.

I am probably one of the few that have never played Chrono Trigger. Final Fantasy II was the second RPG I ever played with the first being Dragon Warrior for the NES from Nintendo Power promo which still to this day has to be the best magazine promotion ever! RPG's aren't really my thing but I did spend a lot of time with Final Fantasy II and would like to get back to it again sometime.
