A True Start To A Console Collection
A few weeks ago I parted with £9 and picked up a Neo Geo Pocket Colour, I then ebayed Dark Mist and Sonic Pocket for it and played the hell out of them. Well, Sonic anyway. Dark Mist has yet to be started, I'll correct that at some point. However, today on a routine mission to talk my roommate out of buying Facebreaker (successful by the way) my keen retro eye spotted this behind the counter.
FUCK YEAH!! I found a mint condition Turbografx-16 in its box with everything. Also I'm redownloading the RFGO episode on it in hope of getting some game ideas. Any suggestions? Or hate?

EDIT
By the way, this whole thing was £30. That's about $55. The guy behind the counter said "Its actually pretty cheap for what it is" so trust me, I was bracing for a much higher price.
