Hello, Guest.
With the recent attacks against members, and lack of care towards their mental health we have started a fundraiser to help fund the life saving charity the Samaritans. Without their support and efforts many people we know wouldn't be alive.
If you're able to help, you can donate via our fundraiser on GoFundMe Link
Thank you.

Thank you!
In the past I imported a lot more than recently. I try to import only LRG games. The rest I try to buy here or when I travel abroad.
There are some games that are usually cheaper here than in the US like AES games.
Including Tectoy stuff, those are crazy expensive outside Brazil.
Even here they are expensive if you want them complete.
Got some great things: game number 71 for the AES, an original Super Mario World box (and it even came with the game with a lot of stickers on the cart) and a Brazilian Playtronic CIB Final Fantasy copy for the NES. This was the first time that I saw this version of FF and had to get it even though it isn't in the best condition. It was also my first CIB NES game.
How about peripherals, newly made master system hardware and so on?

Is that sticker on FF for real? Just that?
The new Mega Drive is still a bit expensive for my taste (around US$90) and the Master System goes for around US$ 50.
It would be great if it was but it's not.
It's an old sticker that I'm afraid to try and take it off.
Oh I see Haha that makes sense
I got some Brazilian versions of games that I already owned but I like to replace the US versions for them if possible.
It took a long time for me to find this CIB Harry Potter but at least it's in really good condition.
Cruis'n USA was a good find. There was one on Mercado Livre for cheap without the manual but a friend had it and gave it to me.
Sonic 2 has a terrible printing quality on the box art but that's usual for Tectoy releases, specially those that had the red label. I decided to buy this version since it's a bit more uncommon than the regular version.

It's been awhile since I last posted what I got but here are the ones from February:
Well, I got something that I wanted for a long time: a MVS arcade cabinet.
This one is also ready to play CPS2 games.

As for the arcade, I bought it from the owner of A Casa do Videogame, a retro game store in Sao Paulo.
I don't usually buy things from FB groups.
I don't think the selection is very good. You'll find better games online and probably better prices too.
Yesterday I got a nice lot of Tectoy Mega Drive/Genesis games.
They are all complete except for Shinobi, which is missing the manual.
I also got some other games, including Rally Championship but I payed a lot less than what it's going for right now and it's complete.

Got some new things. I've been on a PSP kick lately and picked those two games that I wanted and never played.
I found the Playtronic DKC 2 for a very good price and couldn't let it pass. The same goes for the 32X Doom (I sold my US copy after buying this one from Tectoy).
And I couldn't believe when I found the Spiderman game on Mercado Livre. It was considerably cheaper than on ebay so I had to buy it even though it was still very expensive.

During this last week, I managed to find a lot of CIB Mega Drive/Genesis games. I bought some that I was missing in my collection.
I finally added Outrun and Lightening Force. I'm also very happy to add those Tectoy titles.
My Vasara games finally arrived also and I found a Star Wars Chess from Tectoy.
Sadly Tectoy was cheap and the boxes of Sega CD games are really weak.
I already owned the X-Men game but this one is the Brazilian version from Gradiente, released after Playtronic was dismantled. The condition isn't very good but the price was.

On the box of Phantasy Star III it says it was translated to Portuguese.
Also found a CIB Playtronic copy of DKC and had to get it. Now I'm missing the Playtronic version of DKC 3.

I've never seen those blue star wars cartridges, they're funky.
