Then I got a few indications back here in Sweden about a few game PCBs, like Guwange and Esprade, which I am considering parting with as well. Clearly the price of these boards have increased so keeping them on the shelves is kind of a waste.
The simple fact that you’ve uttered the word Guwange means you’ll get at least half a dozen offers to buy :lolno:

Yes it seems so. I was notified it was an expensive board these days. Even though I like the game I think I may sell it.

For more modern shooters, nothing beats ikaruga. It's quite unique, cool combo system, insane to master but different methods, the music, and those boss explosions are *muah*

I could understand ikaruga being mental money. Thankfully it isn't :)

The fast section of level 3 is like a natural evolution of level 2 airbuster. Short but brilliant.

That fella makes it look calm and easy!

All spurred on by mention of cave btw

Ikaruga is like trying to trying to watch a movie and talking to the wife at the same time while balancing upside down. Radiant silvergun is so much more relaxing. :awe:

Oh yeah, if you lose concentration for a second it's just pure chaos, who's that, what's this, where am I.

Little known fact about ikaruga: the developers didn't like the message of Michael jacksons black or white song, so they set out to prove him wrong by making ikaruga.

If ikaruga is overrated, I don't know where that leaves other shooters going for thousands upon thousands :p

I'm thinking about letting go of my Camel Try as I don't think Ill ever have a hori cab with a spinner again and should just settle with the SFC version.
I have the single big board. Has anybody seen the sold in the last 12 months or so?

Thanks!

€399 here from an ebay-typical overpriced seller (ie: €279 Flying Shark, €200 bootlegs).

250 seems very low. I bought mine 10 years ago for around 200 GBP I think and the board is not that easy to come across. At least not here.

Aye, its definitely uncommon but I don't see people clamouring for it. I'd be very surprised if it went for a lot more, but happy to be proven wrong.

Not everything has tripled in price!

When I had some spinners it was high on my list of games to get, but not at the price Japan wanted for it. :shifty:
