AU or US or UK...

Shenmue 2 is worth all of it...
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

= / I dunno about all that. $150 AU for one game?.. and people complain about friviolity of Tekki for the Xbox? No game is worth that much unless you\'re a collector and absolutely must have it for your set. Bob may not even like Shenmue... it\'s a niche title for a reason ya know. It\'s brilliant.. but most people just don\'t care for it. I\'d say find another copy to bid on.. look at the EU auctions since I\'m sure you\'ll find it more readily and alot cheaper since there\'s more of them over there. The money you\'ll pay for shipping, even overnight, will be chump change compaired to $150..

I only payed 50 bucks for my copy too.. slightly used but looked mint in ALL respects. Probably just played once.. cept as a conversation piece.. and sold to buy an Army Men game or something. :rolleyes: Oh well.. least I appreceate it and she has a decent home. :D

Good luck on the bid Bob.. hope you get it so we can finally let you into the Elitist Bastard club :)

You probably don\'t buy as much as me though...
Within the last month, I\'ve bought...

CastleVania: HoD
Star Fox : Adventure\'s
Paid on RE:0
Shenmue 2
Traded for Shemue (import)
Sly Cooper
Sonic Adventure 2: Limited Edition 10Th Anniversary Pack (import)
GunGrave
Animal Crossing

And I\'m now in the process of bidding on Ebay for a white import Saturn with 10 games.

And don\'t even get me started on the month of August....

Basically, what I bring home for a pay check goes for car payment ($450 ) and the rest goes for food and games. I spent at least $350 on games a month, I know I have to.

LiC: I envy you!

Well, I can\'t say I do much different. Virtually everything I buy is electronic if not a game/console-related thing.

mm is turning into his ex-girlfriend ;)

And yah, I got it.  Everything works fine.  The guy actually DELIVERED it right to my house. (He lives in the same city as me) and I just paid him cash.  Everything was in their original boxes.

Pity the games (MSR, Toy Commander) suck... damn you mm!!  ;)

Oh well, not long before my collection starts building.

One thing that surprised me was how bulky it was, it\'s a solidly built little unit, and I love the controller :)

Cool...MSR is a tad to demanding, and Toy Commander is fun...but not for everyone.


You have to be nice to it...mine won\'t play some of my games now.  I\'ve kept them all in perfect condition too.

/me thinks I need to get another one.

It\'s a bit loud when loading, isn\'t it?  Or is that just mine?

Or get a regular memory card which requires no batteries.
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.
