Been super busy lately so I've only been able to pick up handful of games. Complete with manuals and the best part of all is they were free.

PS1 Final Fantasy VII
PS1 Chrono Cross
PS1 Cool Boarders 3
Wii Mario Sluggers
Wii Pikmin
Wii Pokémon battle 2

Been seeing lots of og ps1 consoles in the box but I don't have a use for them since they're pretty much obsolete due to the ps2 and ps3 backwards compatibility.

Some good pick-ups. No reason to the get the PS1 unless you're a purist or a console collector as the PS2 probably has the best compatibility/authenticity (with the PS1 hardware being present) while the PS3 has software emulation and HD connectivity.

The PS1 had my full attention when I was in my mid to late teens but I'm not nostalgic over the console's og shape. I'm passing on those left and right. I agree, the PS2 is the best one for backwards compatibility.
 
I still have all my PlayStation's. 1-4. The 1 is boxed up though. I use the PS2 to play PS1 games.

Still. FFVII might be a better deal for free. :wow:

Yeah, my 1 is boxed up too collecting dust under the bed lol.

You're right, that one definitely sells for more since it also happens to be the og black label release and not the green greatest hits version.

Was posted in the Playstation thread, but this thread's way more appropriate as this game appeals to us older cats. I'm a bit mixed on the art style, pixels could've worked.

Is this officially licensed by SEGA though?

And they need to bring back Yuzo Koshiro for the BGM (provided it's not the garbage he created in SoR 3) and Adam as a playable character right from the start.

Agreed. All us older guy's ears stood up when 'Streets of Rage' was heard, lol.

I wish they'd release S.O.R. 1 through 3 on one disc for the Ps4. That would be super cool.
 
They are cool, I went to one in Chicago. Played some street fighter 2, wrestlemania, Simpson’s and turtles and a couple pinballs...but I wasn’t down with the beer selection lol it was all craftish beers. The mixed drinks were awful as well no regular drinks. This was the downtown location I believe there is 2 tho

Craft beer been trash once it became mainstream. Now there's far too much ovepriced beer that's barely distinguishable from one craft brand to another.

Btw, how much was each play on those arcade cabs? 25 cents?
 


Best Mortal Kombat gave ever. Deadly Alliance was such an advancement for the series. 9 and 10 were great too, but Deadly Alliance was middle school/early high school. Gameplay was on point, story was quality, and extras were the best out at that time. Better than some extras games have today.
