My good buddy Mark (mkm) has enlightened me that I should've stated 
that I am not willing to pay a ridiculous price for this system, so 
please don't email me saying you have a system for sale for $300 unless 
it includes some games with it or something to justify the price.
I do not consider this a fair price for this system, and anyone doing 
any sort of research on what the system is currently selling for will 
learn this.

As a rebuttal to my condescending friend, (Jason Nicole Hartley), The truth
of the matter is that the PC-FX system I offered to him is by all intensive
purposes as close to new and perfection as you are going to get.  I am a
dedicated Turbo collector and have been a member of the list since it's
inception.  The package also included an extra, brand new controller.  Since
Mr. Jason Nicole was insulted by my price he decided to take our private
conversation public.  Being a reasonable person, I also mentioned that I had
quite a few games I was willing to sell.  If he had done what most of the
fine people on this list would have done and tried to negotiate a deal,
instead of firing off a bunch of insults,  he could have probably had a
really nice system with games at a deal both of us could live with.

To support his bitching and whining he proceeded to send me links to evilBay
auctions that displayed PC-FX systems selling for his price range.  So it
begs the question?  Why is he not buying a PC-FX from evilBay?

So, while I am writing this, if any one is interested in purchasing a mint
condition PC-FX with extra controller and games please let me know.  I will
be happy to entertain offers from those who appreciate an avid collectors
sale.

Regards,

Mark (mkm)

For the CD/SCD/ACD poll, I have too many favourites for such a broad 
category.  It would be easier if these were separate categories, but I'll try.

1. Ys 1&2
2. Panic Bomber
3. Kabuki Itoryodan (the fighting ACD game)

There are several shooters and action games which follow these at positions 
4 though 10...

And here are a couple of honorable mentions which would have been somewhere 
in the top 10 (possibly the top 3) if my Japanese comprehension were better:
Emerald Dragon
Legend of Xanadu
Far East of Eden 2

Since I've been watching so much subtitled anime the past couple of years 
(and transliterating song titles from some J-Pop for my CD database), maybe 
I should give these another try to see if they're any easier now.

Mark, I'm not sure why you felt the need to send this to the list and 
lie when I simply did what you stated and posted that I'm not looking 
for a PC-FX system for $300+?. There were no insults there, not like 
the hate mail you sent me. So stop trying to act like you're such a 
good person here when your so two-faced in the public eye.

You system being in perfect condition and an extra controller did not 
justify the high price, I also attempted to negotiate with you when you 
simply told me "good luck" finding one for $150. I then followed up by 
showing you how ridiculous your price was by sending you ebay links as 
well as a website (http://www.wolfgames.com/) and personal offers to 
back it up since you found me so out of line here. You were not ready 
to negotiate at all and simply ended up telling me you're just gonna 
wait until the market is better again. That's great, your choice and 
fine with me, but posting this simply because I did what you told me 
to? Who is the one really whining here?

Why is it because you're a collector you feel you should get more then 
the average price?
