New SMS Stuff

The Sega Master System easily accounts for the largest part of my collection, so why has there been so little SMS stuff added recently? It's getting harder to find things I don't have... Sure, I'm not even close to having a collection as awesome as Rupert or Bock, but it is certainly no longer the case of buying a bulk lot and finding games that I don't have.

Due to owning all buy a handful of the European releases, I've been collecting the Australian and North American releases. A few years back, I managed to get quite a few Brazillian Tec Toy releases, but they've become a lot more expensive as of late...

As you can imagine, shipping from Australia is quite expensive, so my main focus has been on the North American releases. There are several reasons for this: postage only takes a few days (usually six), postage is pretty cheap, games are very easy to find and, due to the exchange rate, are also very cheap.

Anyhoo, enough of the talking - you want pictures!


The sharp-eyed of you will notice that they're not all North American releases; Cheese Cat-Astrophe, Fantasy Zone II and Alex Kidd In Shinobi World are all European releases (the former two being some of the very few European titles I still seek). The rest -- including the sports pad controller -- are all North American.

There are two interesting items here that are worth mentioning: the Alex Kidd In Miracle World re-release (red cart) and the Monopoly "Mono Poly" release.

A final point: they weren't all from one seller. :) It's a collection of stuff I've gotten over the past two weeks from five (I think) different sellers - some from people on forums and some from various auction sites.
