[LargosMaximilian]

Loved the eBay story and awesome pickups mate!

[adfot1]

@LargosMaximilian Thanks dude :)

Another excellent video! I've had those bits of wanting to madly collect something, only to realize a few hundred in that ... meh ... not that interested. The problem then is that the items sit on the shelf, staring at me, tempting me to collect more. "No, Sega CD! NO MORE! ... Maybe just this copy of Sonic CD."

[adfot1]

@TGApuleius Cheers man, yep i'm all over the place at the moment need to focus on one thing.. the shelf staring is an issue might just box the lot up... Never :)

Excellent pickups mate, awesome selection of games...nice one with the Nomad, it's a great handheld...bulky,but great :) Funny drunk ebay story. :D Great video mate.

[adfot1]

@1msx2go Thanks dude, its going to be a Sega year i feel, still waiting for my pricey Star Wars :)

I ended up finding a Nomad for 6 bucks at a Goodwill here in Cali. I flipped out when I seen it under the glass case and scared the crap out of the lady behind the register!

[adfot1]

@kristioconnell311 Nomads make me flip out also .. awesome machine :)

[syphic]

Thats an awesome drunk ebay story. Awesome pickups overall!

[adfot1]

@syphic Thanks dude..

[bluetonic78]

Great video Adam, Christ on a bike - $1,200 LOL The wicked side of me wishes it had sold for more but ultimately i'm pleased you got away with it for a decent (ish) price! ;)

That's interesting to hear you're not into your boxes SNES gear but if you're not into it as much as you thought you were and/or the shipping is outrageous or the games are too pricey then ultimately you have to prioritise your collection. If you've still got them in the summer maybe we'll organise a trade. Good times! :)

[StigsGameRoom]

Cool stuff mate. Love the Nomad and the story behind it haha. Nice GG bundle there, some quality titles there for sure ! That drunk bid on the NES game could have went very wrong indeed if another drunk person had bid a grand on it LMAO

[adfot1]

@StigsGameRoom cheers John, bring on the GG and Nomad going To be a sega year this year i feel.... yep Star Wars was a lucky escape, e bay should have a breathalyzer test I've said that for years... Ads

[gashead66]

Cool video dude, keep it up :)

[adfot1]

@gashead66 thanks man

[krebalo]

That drunk bidding story was fun. This is quite dangerous to go on eBay after drinking 10 or more beers. I've bid on a game I forgot I have this way. But I was lucky, someone else won that game :)

[adfot1]

@krebalo its a serious horrible affliction - drunk ebay ruins lives :)

[Spectrezz]

isn't it ridiculous to buy boxed NES or SNES games in Australia. Everything is $20 plus

[adfot1]

@Spectrezz I know Aussie prices are criminal, bargains are rare

[Spectrezz]

another entertaining video. keep them coming.

Great to finally see some sydney retro gamers

[adfot1]

@Spectrezz Thanks for your nice words dude, yep the Sydney retro scene is sparse to say the least

[ukretrogameaddict]

Nice pickups there Adam - i've got a couple of nomads wicked but one beatly unit - and mega crap on batteries, even the lynx is better than that thing lol! some great game gear bits there dude to....thats gonna be a good challenge to get a full set of game gear titles, great video as always man : )

[adfot1]

@ukretrogameaddict Yep all about the nomad, PC Engine next. Feel treacherous to the Lynx by collecting for the GameGear but i know she will understand, thanks man

[TheSecretGameRoom]

Brilliant pickups , was looking into getting the Nomad myself , it looks awesome.

[adfot1]

@TheSecretGameRoom Thanks dude yep the Nomad is awesome started playing all these megadrive games i have hanging around :)

[PSI236]

Funny ebay story, cool pickups!

[adfot1]

@PSI236 Thanks man

[LeBossu77]

Great video mate, I had to laugh. You've had a busy few weeks, what with meetings in car parks and uber ebay bids, that was a close call! I like the look of the Wii sniper rifle even if the game is cobblers. Landstalker is a great game, a bit like the Mega Drives answer to Zelda with a bit of Alundra thrown in, not too shabby.

[adfot1]

@LeBossu77 Cheers dude yep going to play Landstalker today and give it a whirl...The Wii game is truly awful the controls are all over the place you are just waving a very silly plastic gun everywhere with no real understanding of where you are going or what you are doing... cardigan

[28steryan]

Looking forward to the GB top 10.

[adfot1]

@28steryan yep its finished just have to do voiceover, you wont agree with half of them though... you should have your package tmw or next day :)

[28steryan]

@adfot1 Sweet, I'll let you know when the postman drops it off, I expect some awesome artwork also.

Just won a seven fold multiplier at the bookies on the togger, provided Aston Villa won.

Makes no odds if I agree with your list, I love vid's like that anyway, Idid one a while back so my list is already up, I chose a racer, shooter, fighter etc. rather that just a top 10.

[28steryan]

Is that Wrestling game online?

[adfot1]

@28steryan unfortunately not that would make it worthwhile if we could play online - macho man VS Warrior ooohhh yeah

[marioandsonic1986]

Hey Adam, I would happily take Landstalker off you :D

great stuff and damn would love to have the nomad too.

Mindblowing!

[adfot1]

@marioandsonic1986 Cheers man, Landstalkers yours just PM me your address and i will send you a little package.. No nomad though that buggers not going anywhere :)

[Snestastic]

Crackin pickups Adam, the Nomad was a great find, I had one years ago and loved it :) That sniper rifle is mental lol. Btw is that a LCD/PLASMA or a CRT in the back? Only asking as Goldeneye looks really good and I'm assuming t's LCD/PLasma which amazes me that it looks so good.

[adfot1]

@Snestastic Cheers Pete yep thats a Panasonic Plasma surprisingly the 64 looks rather good on it, i have a CRT but cant fit it in the room...pesky space issues... yes the Nomad is the dogs bollocks :)

[handheldretro]

You can take that manual inlay out from the back of the case if it's annoying you dude, i have shit loads of manuals but i don't have Resident Evil unfortunately :/ If i did i would of donated you the back cover manual. Kool controller. I am also a MASSIVE fan of star wars aswell, i mainly collected the lego version of it but none the less all six movies are like my favourite movies of all time! 1,200? HAHAHAHA LMAO!!! lol take kare

[adfot1]

@fgv112 thanks man.. Star Wars is the new obsession, not getting into the lego stuff though theirs just to much to collect :)

[fgv112]

@adfot1 haha yeah but the lego versions look really cute though

[fgv112]

haha lol not gonna buy me that WWF game, thanks for letting us know! Nice pickup of the Nomad and interesting seeing what GameGears you picked up off that dude, is that magic 19-in-1 game a pirate game? Because "and i know this may sound stupid to ask" but if you don't want it would you trade it? I'll be uploading a trades video soon after i'm done making the new logo for 2012. Let me know dude. Alot of games in that gamegear bundle, was that a bargain? lol haha funny pic from Ste!

[fgv112]
