@Arenthor Just search for the rom, there are plenty of sites that have it as well as Sega Genesis version.
@RoxasKennedy How much was the seller asking for? If the game collection includes AVP, Doom, and Kasumi Ninja, and a different controller I would consider getting it. Oh and "where did you learn to fly?"

I can't remember, but since the console & games were in perfect condition (even the boxes), I would guess it was sold for 400$ or smt.
Of course, I was just browsing, not wanting to buy anything.
Speaking of Ebay, I noticed how some sellers offer stuff like this for, like, 20 bucks, and when I see shipping for Croatia, it's like hundred fucking dollars. And I'm like what the fuck!?

They do that all the time there, that's why I stick with Amazon.

I've seen some pretty amazing stuff on Amazon.
Altho another thing I noticed is that there are New and Used versions of an item and the New items are like million dollars, and Used ones cost, like, 2-3 bucks.
This makes so much sense.

I normally buy new unless it's too expensive. I just don't want to deal with returning something used because it didn't work. Some sellers don't make it easy on you.

Yeah it's the shipping fees that are the main problem, not to mention depending on the package contents, weight etc, more fees in import taxes (FAAAACK YOU!).
I don't buy from eBya much anymore, hell it's been a few years. Amazon is great that's for sure, and should there be any problems, I find it's much easier to sort it out with them and the separate sellers.

Yeah, I used to buy stuff off of ebay all the time. Then I gave amazon a try and never went back.

Yeah prices are always good and even then between Amazon or the 3rd party sellers themselves, sometimes not alot of difference, and availability is easier.
Of the Used games I sometimes buy, most I've had are in decent quality and priced just right too.

Who the hell would buy this? I could understand the price if it was the arcade game, but a Genesis game?

LOL! No one is that desperate!
I remember how awesome the arcade game was and when it came to the MegaDrive one, I was like, this isn't what I played!!!
Apparently it was actually kinda decent according to some people so...........
