That is one nice looking console. Looks like a something designed in the 80s as a prediction for what things will look like in the year 200X

Saturn cases are so freakin fragile, I've got games in the mail and the hinges have literally broken in my hands went I went to open them up.
My worst experience ever was I got a copy of Sonic 3D Blast for Saturn off eBay. It had some sort of crust on the spine. I opened the case and it smelled, so I opened the plastic holder and underneath was what was cat/dog urine all inside the insert, I presume that what was on the outside was dried. I couldn't believe some dirty ahole would even send that thinking it was ok.
I threw the case away and reported the person. I decided after debating it to clean and disenfect the disc, and it actually came out in better condition than another copy I won later on.

Yes I really dig the design of both the normal and duo pc engine. Such a pleasing aesthetic and really doesn't look all that out of place in these modern times. I'm kinda surprised by how good the music is on the system and how well the CD works. Very little loading times between levels, music loops without missing much of a beat. This is exactly how Sega should have utilize the cd capabilities of their system and not with stupid FMVs. And all the games i own are fun. The system kinda reminds me of an NES 1.5. Looks similar in graphics but it is able to do more.

That's what I love about the PC Engine in general, to me it fits between the eras of 8 bit and 16 bit, I get 8 bit gameplay with better graphics than the nes

Yeah, that's all it is. A big case that opens like an old cassette tape case. Has Mario off to the right which can't be seen, kinda cool. No idea why the seller sold Kid Dracula in it though.

They used to sell them individually as a way to protect loose carts. There are also bigger cases that hold more.
Totally. I have a bunch of those cases in many various colors and I always try to match them up with carts of the same or similar color.
And you waited this long to get Money Idol Exchanger???
Anyway, the second you finish your MVS collection we're legally married. That's the law.
