Still taking BOXED RETRO GAMES for commissions. Got some?
12 years ago
Sup guys. Writing this up just before I go to bed. x_x
Just a reminder: I WILL take good condition copies of NES and SNES games, with their original boxes/instructions in exchange for art.
Naturally, I will cover the shipping costs myself. If you have these games and their boxes/instructions, PM me and maybe we can make a deal.
Oh, and FYI. If anybody is willing to part with a physical copy of Earthbound:
THREE COLOR COMMISSIONS.
And if you send me a BOXED COPY with the guide and everything, you get TEN COLOR COMMISSIONS. Or three "Masterpiece" quality pics. (Yes, I am actually serious.)
I must ask that you only offer games that have the original boxes in passable condition, or come with instructions. Not trying to be a dick, it's just cheaper and more efficient to buy the cartridges locally. The games themselves are less rare than the extra pieces. Some people around here sell cartridges for like, a buck each.
And don't worry. The games are not just going to sit in a box and collect dust. I will give them a good home. :)
I am currently building a "Nintendo Shrine" in my office, where I will be able to play all these old games I loved. Complete with an old non-flatscreen TV. A quality one too.
Might even share my games with a local retro gaming club.
Or maybe start one of my own. With blackjack and hookers.
Lord knows this pissant one-horse town I live in could use a retro gaming scene...

I know I have some NES and SNES games. I kept the boxes I know. I'll see what I still have.
But uh... don't bother buying Earthbound at the store. The cartridges alone cost upwards of 200.

those things are pricey. even back in the 90s, they were being sold for a hefty penny x.x

Sadly you'll have to look elsewhere for the boxes, as their selection is relatively low on those. Good luck on your hunt, though! If I had more expendable income, I'd be building a similar collection of SNES, Genesis and N64. x3
but it belongs to my boss so no guarantees
Also, I wanna commission you soon so I'll be noting you soon.
