New Swedish Guy (oh nooo...)
Hi everyone! I reckon most of you are from the US, well that's atleast my initial presumption
[Rant]
I got this site recommended to me through a guy who sold me some ntsc nes games.
You see, we PAL users have been fisted since birth with 50 hz, squashed picture, slowmotion video and slow sound.
I just woke up to the truth... What did I do ? Well, to start off, I'm selling off all my PAL games !
I'm going to replace the games and consoles from nes up to last/current gen where we europeans finally got 60 hz as a standard.
The funny thing is, my tv has 600 HZ! They could've done that @ 16 bit gen... What were they thinking ?!?!?
Anyway, the guy who recommended me to this forum said that it was the best place to buy ntsc snes games.
I collect games for most systems 8 bit and forward but the thing I want to focus on the most is the snes.
So in hope of some great auctions I came here! On to my personal presentation...
[/Rant]
So what am I ?
- Human, Male
- 21 y/o living together with girlfriend
- Gamer since 3 y/o and Collector of Games!
- Anime watcher (if that's even a term)
What do I do for a living ?
- Graphics in ads and catalogues
- Designer of program layout
What do I want to do for a living ?
- Steal rare games off of old grannys and sell em on ebay
- Create an indy hit like Minecraft
- Have the monopoly on every Terranigma copy in the world (evil plan)
That's me! Hope to get a good time here

Welcome Marcus!
You can't have my Terranigma so there goes your Monopoly
The only pal game I want! That's for sure.
Ir0nSlug: Yep! One Piece is actually my favourite anime (:

A few things: The metal (as in music) that comes from there and the fact that it's Scandinavian. I'd like to see the waterfalls that are there. I've heard they're quite nice.
Lots of people are willing to ship overseas if PMed and the details are worked out. It's always worth asking if you find something you are interested in!
(As a side note, I've also thought about visiting Sweden multiple times)
Thanks you all ! Can already tell this site is good !

I think you misunderstood me a little there.. I have no intention of working with grannys!
I don't really know what Kiddo means besides child ? 21 y/o counts as adult in most countries afaik

As in In Flames ? I live about 20 mins from their "home city"
Sure, that's a good example! They're not one of my favorite bands, but I definitely like them. Especially their "Come Clarity" album. A lot of great Metal comes out of Gothenburg.

If you want to visit Sweden you should go at the same time Metaltown is in gothenburg. Alot of great bands play there every year.
Welcome neighbor! We're in the same boat - I just started building NTSC SNES collection myself! There was actually a thread by a norseman with similar intents, come in to share your experiences here (yeah, I'm trying to mold that thread into nordics meetingplace here at NA .

I don't doubt it. Scandinavia has the best Metal.
