High quality conversion, uses Lastblade as sac cart (no messy wire conversion) has the Japanese gold warning stickers, high quality insert. Looks 99% like the original without the manual.
???
Thanks

Buy the aes or the mvs game or simply don't play this game!

Thats your oppinion and a debate for another day. The only other converted cart I have is a Metal Slug by Mr Kurtz which cost me 1/5 the price of a genuine aes, thats an extra $1200 to spend on games and I aint made of money!
Dont get me wrong, I by no means agree with poor quality freaked carts. Im of the view that if a cart is extremely pricey and you can get virtualy the same thing for half the price then thats a good deal.

If it is a last blade as a sac cart for Blazing Star, I know who it belong too and I seen it, it is real high quality stuff, you won't even know it is a conversion except for the fact it has no manual. With the manual, it will pass for the real thing!

Last Blade SAC???? Say it ain't so. I've got a hard enough time dealing with SACing a common FF3!

You must consider the price of the sac cart ($150 for a Last Blade), the price of the MVS one ($80 for a Blazing Star), the job needed for the conversion ($50/100) and you get $280/330...

Nevermind, the cost of it, ask Superpang when he get the blazing star, he will know it is very good quality, I still can't get over looking at the seller conversion. All look original, right to the cart sticker.

Unless Dr. Frankenstein lives in asia and got his materials from the yahoo japan graveyard. Then I'd say $80 for last blade 1 and some dirt cheap amount for last blade bootleg chips. After that the money used to make a high quality insert and sticker would be less than $40.

Plus 20 $ for the job (Asians usually work for less money) and then we are at 140 bucks.

Minus 100 $ sentence makes 40 $ for it!

what would you do with the homecarts? Sell for money? Use the money to make a sweatshop in Thailand? Don't exploit us, you rich Singaporean mogul.
