If you've ever dreamed about owning some really crap old game boy carts that were once owned by me, then now is your chance.

in the same vein
if anyone wants a 150o VDo gauge to measure engine coolant temperature, commonly found in MkI Golfs, then just let me know.

I've got that Simpsons game somewhere.
Terrible at it, I was.

I've never played it
it came in a job lot of other carts, but googling it, it looks completely dreadful

I'm not condemning it, but
why do people buy old computer games?

Can someone please explain this strange pastime?

As soon as a newer, better graphics/gameplay sequel of a game comes out, all versions are forsaken to the bottomless pit, never to grace my console's microchips again.

nostalgia
and newer isn't always better.

people still watch black and white films too.

I've bid a fiver on the Mario DS thing
and will be keeping an eye on it.
