What's the blue Pokemon one?

[Duke "Tape" Eiyeron]

Which one? Alpha Sapphire (gen 6 remake of GBA Sapphire) or Pokemon X (gen 6)?

[CKH4]

Thanks, the one that I couldn't see was alpha sapphire.

Ooh nice collection Hayleia. Do you also have the box and instructions with the games?

And Eiyeron most Atari consoles are on Ebay but before buying one make sure it comes with all the cables. Also, the SECAM (France and Russia) Atari consoles have a terrible color palette compared to PAL (rest of Europe) and NTSC (America/Japan).

This is why in France and USSR the Atari 2600 had such a bad reputation back in the days.

Yeah, sorry, I had to save in 8 bit to save space.

I have the boxes yeah, since all those games were bought new, and I guess the instructions are inside. I never read them since the game always explains everything itself when you start a game

No problem. Just wanted to let you know. I wonder if PAL ones work in France like newer consoles?

Also, the story behind those two Zellers games (the red boxes) is that in the early 80's, Zellers, which is a Canadian store that used to be similar to Walmart, pirated some Atari 2600 games, changed the names and copyrights then resold them under new packaging with different cartridge labels. That was of course until Atari 2600 told them to stop. So nowadays those cartridges are quite rare and not well known, since they were only sold (illegally) in Canada.

There is a video explaining it, but it's in French:

I finally got around to buying Skyrim, since i was waiting for a steam sale . The Steam workshop has some amazing mods

[Dream of Omnimaga]

Cool to hear. I bought it a long while ago during Boxing Day sales for the PS3 but I didn't play much.

The issue with PS3 and XBox One games is that you are hyped about trying your newly purchased game, only to have to wait 2 hours for it to install, then the minute it's done you are busy again.

Oh, I havea Wii colection: Super smash bros brawl, fifa 15 Mkart nand just dnce 2014 for my sister.

It's a shame that they did not make FIFA 14 and 15 for the Wii U as well. FIFA 13 Wii U probably didn't sell well so they decided to just make a Wii version that can be played on both consoles, but apparently the Wii U gamepad features were really interesting in FIFA 13. That said, keep your copy of FIFA 15. If it happened to be the last ever Wii soccer game and didn't sell well then maybe it will increase in value in a decade. (I'm still curious about FIFA 14 PS2 NTSC value in a few years, seeing as it's even more rare)


Talking about game values, the Wii version of this NIS America title seems like it could be worth a lot in a few years: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodea_the_Sky_Soldier (unless the American Wii version gets canceled)

I'll be sure to keep it then!

[Snektron]

Looks like a fun game
Also i never really got the whole FIFA thing. I mean isn't it the same gameplay with more players and better graphics?
Though i never played it, so i don't really know. Never been into football/soccer games anyway

[Unicorn]

Its actually a lot of fun, sliding every player and getting red cards so that you have to forfeit
