I have one of my favorite games on it: Final Fantasy IX
I'd like to get the original Resident Evil, but the PS1 version is super expensive now
Final Fantasy IX always intrigued me, I love the look of the game to bits but idk whether I could get through it
Trust me when I say; The video game market went up during Covid, and now it just denies to go back down. I’ve bought a couple consoles from Japan just because they’re cheaper, and some of them are region free.
I used to have a N64, GameCube, PS2, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance, and Wii, but I gave them away. I never thought they'd go up in price so drastically.
I’m fairly sure all of those except the PS2 and Wii are region free (without modding). If you ever go to wanting them back, grab one on eBay from Japan. Significantly cheaper, and you can play the same games!
Thanks for the tip!
