@Arasoi: awesome ! I once had the Capcom Game Syndrome and the Scitron NG Anniversary LD Box. Good stuff !

Maybe I ask you paid for the bunch ? What's exactly on the Gal's Island LD ? Can't be superplays of all the titles on a single LD...

The Gal's Island LD has footage from the listed games, showing some skilled gameplay through the various levels and it shows the alst boss and ending. Not a superplay LD by any means, but still pretty amusing. This one came in a lot with the SF2/Racing LDs that I bid on for the Capcom Game Syndrome.

My favorites at the moment are the SNK LDs, they have spoken dialogue from the voice actors on them and show the full playthrough for each character or team.

I'll be ripping some of these with the holo3d's svideo input soon for youtube most likely.

They're fully adjustable rearsets. I bet they cost a pretty penny! In the States, you can get cheapy vortex rearsets for $350 or so, those look more than a tad nicer and probably cost in the $600 - $800 range. At least, in the States!
What more can I say I wouldn't be here today if the old school didn't pave the way.

Great, now all you need is a few questionable characters to hang around the place and you'll be all set.

I thought it was for a steampunk fishing rod.

As for this... when I saw your first picture I thought that you were going to post the fact you bought some M&Ms from a vending machine! That would have been hilarious!

Kingbuzzo, nice pickup on the Lemans. Played that to death when it came out. Great racing game that actually is way better on DC than PS2. I've heard the same team from Infogrammes did that Looney Tunes racer on DC as well.

Caincan, great pickup on Flintstones. I played that over the weekend at Pinball Hall of Fame in Las Vegas. First time I'd ever seen it, pretty good game. For some reason I had it lumped in with Gilligan's Island, but Gilligan's Island is SHIT. I still remember begging the local operator's route guy to take it out of the bowling alley where my mom bowled. He was like it sucks that much? I was like yes, bring back Whirlwind, so he did, haha.
