T.A.P. Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 It's taken me years to do, but I finally did it! The last two games I wanted for the system arrived in the mail today, putting me up to 25 cartridges and 8 CD games. All of them are complete, and a decent chunk of them were even still new when I purchased them. It's just nice to finally have everything I want for the system. Although maybe I'll reconsider some of those games I thought were duds... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's what I have: Cart: Alien vs Predator Breakout 2000 - The last cartridge I purchased Cannon Fodder Checkered Flag Club Drive Cybermorph Doom Fight For Life Flashback: The Quest for Identity FlipOut! Hover Strike Iron Soldier Kasumi Ninja Pinball Fantasies Raiden Rayman Ruiner Pinball Super Burnout Tempest 2000 Theme Park Trevor McFur in the Crescent Galaxy Ultra Vortek Val d'Isère Skiing and Snowboarding White Men Can't Jump Wolfenstein 3D CD: Baldies Battlemorph Blue Lightning Highlander: The Last of the MacLeods Hover Strike: Unconquered Lands Iron Soldier 2 - The last CD game I was after Myst Vid Grid I've had a Jaguar since the mid 90s, when my dad got me one and a handful of games on clearance. That's how I was lucky enough to get some of the really pricey games like Rayman. I used to have a few more games over the decades at one time or another, but sold them off for one reason or another: Attack of the Mutant Penguins - had a junky cart-only copy. When I first played it as a kid, I had a ton of fun with it, when I tried playing it years later, it just felt too complicated and not very fun. Brutal Sports Football - had a junky cart-only copy. I've considered getting another one, although the prices for it now make me reconsider that. Evolution: Dino Dudes - had a junky cart-only copy. The game gets very dull and frustrating for me really fast. Although I still think of getting another one from time to time, when I see the going price for one, I stop. Missile Command 3D - I wanted to like this one, it just doesn't click for me. Power Drive Rally - It gets too hard, too fast for me, and just ends up super frustrating. Towers II: Plight of the Stargazer - I wanted to like it, it just feels too clunky to me now as an adult. Troy Aikman NFL Football - Got it on clearance as a kid in the 90s. Was never really into sports games, so I sold it off in the early 2000s. I considered picking it up again, although the curret prices make me reconsider that. Zool 2 - Got it on clearance as a kid in the 90s, and just never really liked it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.A.P. Posted September 20, 2023 Author Share Posted September 20, 2023 If I could find cheap, complete copies in nice shape, I'd likely pick up Brutal Sports Football, Evolution: Dino Dudes, and Troy Aikman NFL Football again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never even seen one in real life! It's a fun system for me, since I have a lot of fond memories of playing one as a kid (my older brother got one in early / mid 1994 and collected almost every game for it, and I ended up getting my own console in 1995 during the grand clearance), but with the prices they go for these days, I can't really say it is worth hunting down any more. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Congrats on reaching your goal. Time to move the goalposts!!! You are missing some of the best games on the Jaguar. Check out the "indy" games in the AA store! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alucardX Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Congrats! I'm like you and was able to get much of my stuff as a teenager when things were clearance. For years nobody wanted to hear about my Jag collection or come over and play it. Now we're the cool game collectors 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machine Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Power Drive Rally is a great game for the Jaguar. Very fun and challenging but still beatable! I still play Missle Command 3D and NBA Jam also. Those 3 games are good ones to have in the Jaguar library. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Nicely done, that's a pretty respectable selection of Jag carts. As Machine said, check out the games in the AA store and also what Songbird has, I'd recommend Protector SE which IMO is a better buy than Defender 2000. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Editorb Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 In 2020, a friend (who is within five games of completing NES collection) noted my "sweet Jaguar collection," which had Defender 2000, Iron Soldier, Missile Command 3D, Hover Strike, Raiden, Ruiner Pinball, Power Drive Rally, Val d'Isère, Super Burnout, T2K, and Wolfenstein CIB, plus a few loose. I thought, crap, this is nowhere close to sweet. No CD, but I rectified my pitiful state by having all official releases save Aircars and Atari Karts plus a slew of homebrews/post mortem releases. It had a fever, and the only cure was more Jag games. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.A.P. Posted September 23, 2023 Author Share Posted September 23, 2023 (edited) I wish someone would make more Battlesphere carts. I hear only good stuff about that game. Edited September 23, 2023 by T.A.P. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Congrats on meeting the goal. Jag is a fun system to collect for. Jaguar High Score Club is a fun introduction to more games. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 I'd also like to take a moment to appreciate this guy posts he's completed his Jag collection and we all rush in and tell him about more carts he needs to buy. 2 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
