Oh man, you got Papuwa too? Great call on that one, it's among my favorite SFC  games now.

My latest additions.



Ghost Sweeper Mikami (Undoubtedly my favorite of the bunch, just loving it. Definite top 10 SNES status.)

wholeheartedly agree on Ghost Sweeper Mikami. That's the SFC game I play most frequently. Nothing ground breaking, but it executes the classic action plaftormer style so, so well. It also helps that I was a fan of the old anime and the overall theme of "ghost bustin" / "supernatural horror" in general.

I too have grown fond of the anime, I started watching it while I was waiting for the game to arrive, and I adored it almost as much as the game itself. But yeah, the gameplay seems to me like a cross between Choujin Sentai Jetman, and Kabuki Quantum Fighter. Near-perfect game.

I remember one of the Ranma 1/2 fighting games is cool; I made a video of it. But don't remember which it was. You can press L to taunt the opponent, hehe.

I have to show this find, "Case Boy"

In the box is a screen protector that makes the screen more brown, LOL. Makes my game boy heart pound.

The case boy sounds interesting. I'm going to have to keep an eye out for that.

A bit more from my recent haul

You can get a Case Boy relatively cheap these days - I know someone on Instagram that bought one just for their Castlevania colection (look at the screen on the box)...

less than 80 bucks? I'm also surprised I don't see any on YJ.... at least the other day when I checked.

Pretty sure I got mine brand new for less than that - I'll do some digging.

There's this one you could get for 60 but it's not new:

I assume you're talking GBP  ;D

Yeah that one is pretty worn out. Maybe the pickins are just slim right now.

No it's USD, 70 bucks but I think he'd take 60 as it's crumpled.

I think I have mine at far too low price...  :-[ Thanks for the link, I'll raise it.
Think is, these things don't sell, it is too much niche. No matter how rare.

But they ARE hard to find. I have not seen one in my 2-3 years of buying/selling. You can find it at hit-japan because no one buys it.
Also, the box should contain the screen protector, straps, and other things. I can't tell if hit-japan's has that.

I'm surprised you say that, I've come across quite a few just in the last year.  You're right though - they don't sell.  Nice collector piece but as a product back then they were pretty redundant.

Nice, I don't know what it is.

I was never into bot things, although I remember I actually did own a transformer but I got tired of it soon.
