Collection Holy Grails

[bjork]

I never finished that game. Maybe I'll play it this weekend.

I really feel like at the time, if it had different designs, it would've been more popular. All the enemies look kinda silly but the areas are fun to explore for a light 3D platformer of that era. :)

Must not be too many, or I've never seen them anyway. Just because the few Switch games I have with reversible covers all still have the red spine.

Yeah it really depends on the game, the region you get it from, and which version you buy as some games will have a "retail" release and a special one from a specific publisher (like ININ Games for titles like Wonder Boy Asha in Monster World). Sometimes it's a first print thing too like with Sonic X Shadow Generations or releases that come from a box set. You have to go out of your way a bit to get some of them but I think it's worth it.

I've been collecting Switch games for a while so I'll try and post a few that I know of:

This one is red for a good reason LOL

Not a reversible, just a misprint

Pre-order bonus for Asia version:

Slipcases:

EDIT: I'm adding this as a fun bonus, it's another misprint

Maybe I just have to look through my collection a bit more then. I have a bunch of Switch games too, but most of the reversible covers I am actively aware of are for my PlayStation games.

I did get Sonic x Shadow, but for PS4

I have never played nor owned a Dead Cells game, but this looks awesome

Posted this in the other thread, these with my Neo Geo AES.:

"Oh? You like KOF and SNK eh?" Why yes, yes I do.

Yes, whenever I can, if I'm really hyped for a game I'll get the special editions if possible. Got others for PS2, Gamecube, PS 3, too lazy to get em out.

I'd gotten the digital of this and forgot I had this.

The white whale for me is Dracula X for the Turbo Duo. I don't even have a Duo, but if I ever found a complete Dracula X, I'd then buy a Duo and other stuff. I don't give fuck about the cost. Yeah I got the PSP version, emulated this and the PSP, etc. I'd like to own the real thing.

It's got to be either Blood Omen 1, Tombi!, or Rule of Rose.

They're not all huuuugely expensive, but still, these are the games I want the most.

I remember having fun with that one, but I returned it because I got stuck on some weird wind fortress level.
The dude shouting "Continue!" in the tutorial is etched into my brain but I barely remember the game at all. You kicked a lot, right?

 

[PhrawzT]

I used to rent this all the time as a kid. I would love to add this to my collection, but I am not paying over $200 for a copy.

 

[FrootyLoopsSamurai]

I want a Vectrex.

It's a 1982 game console with its own built in CRT made to display only vector graphics. They way it draws the graphics works a bit differently than a regular CRT. It gives things a super unique look. They're pretty rare and expensive. Would be super cool to have.

You could do melee, yeah. Some punches and kicks and when you finally wore an enemy down, it would go into slow-motion while they fell back. Then you had the boomerang thing that doubled as a hair clip. Later on that would get like a first-person view where you could control it for some puzzles too. There were those weird little pink blob things that you could kind of lure around areas to open paths and stuff. It wasn't the most complex thing in the world, but it was pretty fun.

That said, when you say "weird wind fortress level" I think of multiple spots, so they maybe did rely on wind a little too much overall, heh.

So I am also someone who likes Zelda themed 3ds models like Tonberry. This one has the coveted dual IPS screens that only certain models were shipped with, and is also hacked

I also have this model

I also have this variant cover, only 100 exist. Literally the only game I keep in an acrylic case.
