....subjecting myself to the world of Neo Geo. Or possibly a twisted world of empty wallets and stock market trading (Price Guides). Hope i can be of help in the NGPC arena....... Although i have become one of the insane and purchased an AES with MS3 as well. The slippery slope to poverty.... such is life.

Just make sure you aint one of the guys that buys everything up ASAP and then gets bored real quick, sells and fucks off! But, hey, I'm sure you're not like those guys :D

A fellow mancunian? You found anywhere local to buy games? The gamestation in the Arndale centre sold out ages ago...but I still visit every now and again with high hopes *sigh*

Sell up and Fuck off.....me, nah. Although i do buy and sell NGPC my hope is to collect and play this console like when i was a lad...... hmm, the good old days. I got 2 Consoles and 4 games for the NGPC from Gamestation in Manchester 2 weeks ago. But i think i was a bit lucky as they had only come in that morning. MOTM for £7..... lol ..... well, i did at the person who sold it to me!! I keep looking but it is getting hard to find any. I have even considered advertising in the Loot!! Desparate Times....... :(

DAMN you got something from Gamestation?!? Lucky!

You tried Loot yet? Personally I'd skip it, but you never know, I guess...the only source I hold any hope for is the internet. But we have to pay top dollar there <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[Crying]" />

Manchester SUCKS for games shops. Even Stockport is better...unless you want copied games, which Manchester can provide pretty well :D

Yeah, Manchester is a bit of a non starter, and the loot is pish. i tried putting a wanted advert in a few time but with no sucess. i even tried ringing around the different Gamestation shops but with no success. :mad: <img src="graemlins/annoyed.gif" border="0" alt="[Annoyed]" />

The internet it is then. I dont suppose you know someone that live abroad. EB of the USA is selling a few game for basically bugger all, but for some reason will not ship to the UK!! :mad: <img src="graemlins/annoyed.gif" border="0" alt="[Annoyed]" /> :mad: <img src="graemlins/annoyed.gif" border="0" alt="[Annoyed]" /> :mad:

That's probably because they have their own branches over here...which suck really bad! I don't know anyone in the US who would ship it over for us, but you could try sweet talking one of these guys into it ;)

Here's a UK site that still has some NGPC games for sale: <a href="http://www.chipsworld.co.uk" target="_blank">http://www.chipsworld.co.uk</a> Be careful though, not everything they list is in stock! No discount either :(

Thanks for the Info Huxley. Buggers <img src="graemlins/veryangry.gif" border="0" alt="[Very Angry]" /> , they list load of stuff, let me order it, and then tell me it is out of stock. Seems a good setup at first, but you'd have thought they would update there stock every so often!! Why say it available when its not....... :mad: :mad: ..... and Faselei for £17 as well....gggggrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!

Ahh sorry about that! Do they have ANYTHING in stock? The lying gits should take the NGPC section down if they have nothing to sell...

i know they should....... i have emailed them and they should get back to me sometime in the next millenium, oh hum, bugger it...... it takes the fun outta finding stuff anyway..... i am a bit worried actually Huxley. ;)

I have a question, and don't take offense, i am sure you are of the man type but you have a female avatar and signature...... tell me it is because you like looking at women....... <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[LOL]" /> <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[LOL]" /> <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[LOL]" />

....as i said though, no offense intended.... :D

No problem, I'm not afraid to say that I like to play as women in games! Why? Difficult question...maybe it's my feminine side coming through, but more likely because I like the eye candy ;)

I've actually read up on the subject (for an essay I'm doing), and found this interesting research from womengamers.com: <a href="http://www.womengamers.com/articles/gender.html" target="_blank">http://www.womengamers.com/articles/gender.html</a>

That's too bad. If anyone gives you shit about it, remind them that John Romero (Doom, Quake, ect...) drives a Ferarri. :D
