    Shenmue 1 & 2 are the greatest video games ever made. If you know the history, and you realise that Shenmue 1 was released at the end of 1999, not only were the graphics mind blowing, but also the amount of detail is staggering. Just one playthrough you won’t even have touched the surface of some of the layered details throughout. We’re even still finding unique things about the games even today. Yu Suzuki was a genius back then. I’m excited for you to experience them, it’ll take you to places you weren’t even expecting by the end of the second game :)…and then understand the pain we all went through for 18 years haha! Really hope you enjoy them Ryan! The remasters have a few little quirks and bugs that weren’t on the Dreamcast originals, like some strange music audio issues for certain tracks, unecessary extra compression on the VO…i’m sure it was an accident to double compress them for a Bluray disc haha. The PC versions have had some fixes from the fans, such as an audio restoration project, adding widescreen to the cutscenes, Shenmue 2 in particular display cutscenes in not just letter box but also 4:3 black bars, so considering all of the cutscenes are ingame engine, the widescreen mod really makes the whole game look incredible. If you do play on the PS4, just be mindful of those flaws in the remasters !

    I started collecting again. Doing it while I’m young with no family of my own yet. I’ve cut out GC, DC, NES, SNES and Genisis. I’m fine with just emulating them with a retro usb controller for each emulator. All the PlayStation consoles, Wii and Nintendo switch is what i collect for now. I love retro games so much 🤤

    I've recently reflected and had the realization that I was collecting more than playing and paying dumb money for games that I KNOW I would never play.
    So, I've started selling on eBay and moving forward will only pick a game up if I have full intention of playing it.

    Man, if it's expensive to collect retro games out there, you can't even imagine what it's like here in Brazil. I recently bought Castlevania SotN for PS1, I had to buy a version with a reproduction of the manual and inserts, with just the original CD, it was about R$400, as the complete version is worth about R$1500 (R$ is the Brazilian currency, R$5 = $1 ), and the average salary here is R$1500. That's what I also recently picked up Parasite Eve, without the demo CD precisely because it's cheaper. My collection is growing, but slowly and with sacrifices like repro manuals.

    Just out of curiosity here for the complete box unopened versions ... how do you know the games still actually inside? 😳
    Couldn't they carefully remove it and seal off the box and you're paying $320 for an empty box? 🤔
    I'd assume this happens to make a quick scam sale, but what assures you it's actually still complete? I'd be on edge spending that without knowing.
