Getting classic gaming stuff isn't easy these days...

Ever since Game Station X went under, it's been getting more and more difficult to find Atari Jaguar merchandise. 'Course, there's always Ebay, but it can get pretty damn costly, once you add together all the annoying charges. Mail order is always an option, but shipping again can cost more dough than you're willing to spend.

For instance, I just got the game Power Drive Rally in the mail from an auction on Ebay, and due to Canada Customs, I had to tack on an extra $10 bucks to the pre-existing $50 from the cost of the game, the money order, the outrageous US to Canadian dollar exchange rate, and finally the shipping. Ouch...

And the game isn't what I expected, yet it's still pretty good - but I wouldn't have payed $60 for it...TurboGrafx-16 stuff is hard to find, too, but I have so much of it I'm not sure I'd want much more (well, mayble a bit...). At any rate, it's still cheaper (sometimes) to get old games as opposed to new, but when the prices are this expensive, I dunno...

But I'm not about to give up on my older consoles, no sir! Some of my favourite games are for the Jaguar and TurboGrafx. Tempest 2000 and Galaga '90, for instance...
