He is selling a Jaleco Mega System 32 motherboard only for $125, plus $14 shipping. That is more than double what gwgat charges, and they are almost always overpriced. Double what gwgat charges! Talk about price-gouging.

He just thinks its something special since you dont see alot of US resellers offering this. Mega System 32 boards and games litter Yahoo JP.

That's a shame...

I got GOUGED on my Jaleco board because Rinkya wound up charging like...$70 shipping and handling ($20 service charge, $15 in domestic shipping, $35 in overseas shipping).

I still got a motherboard and tetris plus 2 for $90.

Thats why it is always a good idea to buy in a group order with some friends, or buy a bunch of boards at once.

I bought my JMS32 board with Tetris Plus for $50 plus about $15 shipping from gwgat. Normally, I don't buy from them because they are overpriced, but on that one, they gave me a good deal. Even so, $125 for just the mobo alone is a ripoff.

Mine was $60 shipped with Tetris Plus from NCSX (I think they still have some). $125 for MoBo alone is insane...

i actually think his prices on his mvs carts are great..

never heard of that board mentioned in this thread but compared prices overall to 3 years ago and AES value is DOWN and MVS value is WAY UP..

i imagine the same can be said about jamma boards aswell.

AES value is not down. Look at what people want for any Metal Slug on AES, $350 up to well over $1000. Thats high to me. I guess thats why a bunch of people went MVS.

Aren't these things cheap as balls? Shame on you for using Rinkya though. They suck.

If I'm not mistaken, I have one of these lying around. Is this the system that plays Game Tengoku?

Yep.

I'm actually pretty happy with it. Same thing with the Kaneko Super Nova. Not a ton of games, but, charming in it's own way.
