Hi guys!
Names Marcus
I am a small 17 year old xD haha.
I have been collecting old Nintendo games since I was about 12 with all the allowance money I would get from my parents for cleaning the house and mowing the yard.
I have roughly about 450 Nes carts from unlicensed to licensed. The biggest prize in my collection is a cheetahman II cart.
I have always been fascinated with pirate games like somari and world heroes 2. BUT I never knew where to go for them I would type in where to get them on google just out of hope to find one to buy thats not a thousand dollars on ebay haha.
I came across this site and in a week I spent a good 300 dollars on here lol. I seriously just exploded with excitement,
So yeah, hi haha.

How did you get Cheetahmen II? Is it loose/CIB/sealed? How much was it?
I like to glitch old VHS tapes and turn them into visuals for live music events. Check out what I'm working on - www.instagram.com/tylerisneat

Loose
My fathers friend had it and my dad pretty much just asked for it and he gave it to him.

Hi guys. My name is Agustìn and I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Famicom Clones and pirate carts have been my thing since I was a 5 year old. They are really really easy to find here in Argentina.
I ended up being a collector when I became a teenager, and having all sorts of Famiclones, pirate carts, Sega clones, Atari clones and licensed consoles and Home Computers that were made in Argentina such as Coleco Vision, Commodore, MSX or Sinclair.

Nowadays I'm starting to offer my services as a middleman for foreign people who would like to buy articles like the ones I've mentioned before on Argentina's eBay: Mercadolibre.com.ar

Nice to meet you all. The forum seems to be pretty good. I promise to participate as much as I can.

Hello Game.Genie.

I'm a big fan of famiclone consoles (the older ones particularly) and collect them, along with pirated carts.  I look forward to any possible future dealings. :redcart:

Hello FW! Some of you may know me from PCFX. It's great to be here and I just finally got a working Twin Fami after years of waiting. I originally bought one from Japan back in '09. The system needed a belt replacement as is common with these machines, but it tuned out that the drive was damaged beyond repair. My friend Opethian from PCFX hooked me up with a fully functional model and I am awaiting my first batch of discs.

I already have on cart Contra, Wai Wai 2, something-or-other' Fantastic World (weird game!), Kid Drac, Crisis Force, and Donkey Kong Jr.

My system will be on display at the Midwest Gaming Classic in Milwaukee this March. I was part of last year's Turbofest with some PCFXers but this year we are expanding our reach into the main museum hall. The show is getting bigger and bigger every year and I advise anyone who loves retro gaming to come and join us!

RetroGamerTMD

Why hello there everyone!

My name here is RetroGamerTMD, but on Sega-16 I'm known as 16-bit, and a whole lot of other places as 16bitfromSega16. I've chosen this ALIAS here because to me it sounds better.

I've been interested in the Famicom for a while, and I finally got an AV Famicom and a Disk System recently and whilst I don't have many games as of yet, I'm really enjoying the system so far. Hoping to do an S-video mod on it eventually  :help:
