I wouldn’t even sell my copy of ‘Night Trap’ for over $100 still have my Megadrive and Mega CD along with dozens of original classics. Shining Force#, Landstalker, The Immortal, StarFlight, jungle Strike,Desert Strike and dozens more I can’t be arsed remembering
Just seen virtua racing. I have that also. When it first came out it was priced £70 in the U.K. It had some evolutionary chipset in the cart which is why it was so expensive. Up their with the arcades at the time. Still, you had to live it to appreciate it. Loooong before mobiles, satellite TV and a 100 channels of junk! Life was so much fun and simpler. Out on your bike, play football, just get out with loads of mates. Now I only see groups hanging out doing drugs or whatever, but never playing.
I mean who would think there would be Electric Cars and fossil fuels would be banned |

Wow.
I know NONE of those games. NEVER played on that console.
I've been playing games since the C64 so I know games. I thought I knew them all but these games and this console ive never seen.
I've heard of it but never seen it, never played it and know none of those games so I'll be getting it... nope. No thanks.
Too many lame "minis" these days. All they are is a small box with an emulator in it. I can get an emulator on the xbox which will play all those games so why bother with buying a new box and take up another HDMI port and power port and spot on the entertainment unit.
If those "minis" actually did what the original did then they might be good but no, they are just a box which looks like a small version of the console its emulating. The C64 mini is just a box. It doesn't even have the OS.
I believe the Amiga mini does have the OS, thats kinda ok but was told a keyboard wont work and the unit itself isn't a working keyboard, its just there for looks. Pathetic.
Just get an emulator for whatever device you have and run these old games that way. Save your money and space and ports. |

It’s because it’s a North American exclusive. That’s why you haven’t seen those games.
Elsewhere they were released either Europe,Japan or imports.
I just filled grooves in the cartridge slot, both sides, to play imports
