I'm not able to locate most of the ISOs I had. Some may have been on a laptop that died years ago. I've got about a quarter of the list.

This tread is awesome. I'll second Deep Fear. IIRC you have to get creative with your save file & the 2nd disc on a US SS with your AR cart.

So there's a JPN game that's a 2D arcade shooter with you moving forward like Space Harrier. You're in a silver flying car driving through buildings. It might be a movie license game. Ringing a bell for anyone? Name escapes me.

Edit: found it

This would kill my wallet. Need to look up some of the reasonable titles.

I think the only one I own on the list is Deep Fear. My JPN SS collection is mostly titles also available in the US with a cheaper JPN release.

Only other exclusives I can think of that I own are early MvC games & Zap Snowboarding.

I've picked up most games for >$10 so far. Dxhird, Daitoride, Wrestling featuring Virtua, Hyper Golf, Blue Seed and about 10 others - just scour ebay, their are frequent auctions on these common titles - get 'em for $0.99 and $4-6 shipping. Get 2 or more from same seller and combine shipping of course...

The shooters - yeah, they are gonna run some change, but at auction most can be had for $15-30 under the buy now prices. Worst case scenario, you can just "rent" it - pay $80 for Sengoku Blade and then re-sell it. Even if you re-sell for $70; you paid $10 for the rental. Just some thoughts...

His sale list would likely say yes, and he's trying to get others to participate through extras. I'm still participating, but it starts next week, right?

Next week - yes, still doing. I bought a handful of extras along the way, mostly for noise, but he's out of console completely, so...my dups are available...

I didn't read through the whole thread (just the first post and the last few pages) but is anybody thinking about putting together an overview of the games you are covering? I'd like to get into Saturn and this thread is getting me more excited.
