FIFA 96

[Genesis Knight]

Let me just make sure. The PAL version of FIFA (indeed, the only version) can be played on a US Genesis and 32x with no probs, right?

Does anyone know where I can get a copy?

[Zebbe]

Here (http://www.tradera.com/auction/aid_35932878) is a copy. I've heard it works.

You'll have to translate this for me. I can't even read how much it costs. 25 Swedish Kronor... Isn't that like $3 US?

If it's that cheap and shipping isn't outrageous, do you think you could purchase it for me (since you know the language and have an account at the auction site already) and then I'll pay you back for all the expenses?

Please? I'll name you 'Nicest Swede I Know' if you do. :)

EDIT: Just checked out Wikipedia and it says it'll work, too. So I'll take it if you're willing.

From Wikipedia:
Most 32X games cannot be played unless the distribution region of the game matches the region of the console. A few games are not locked and can be played on a console from any region (e.g. Fifa 96).

What are your sources?

I can make a bid on the auction for you and then ship it to you. Just tell me how many Swedish Kronor you are willing to pay for this item. 1 US$ = 7,12 Swedish Kronor.

"What are your sources?"

What do you mean? I didn't write the article. But you said it would work, too, so I'm willing to take the bet.

I can make a bid on the auction for you and then ship it to you. Just tell me how many Swedish Kronor you are willing to pay for this item. 1 US$ = 7,12 Swedish Kronor.

I'd be willing to pay up to 50 SEK for it, *not counting shipping*. Any idea on how much the shipping will be?

[Zebbe]

It will be 33 Swedish Kronor to send it to me. Then sending it to you will be 50 Swedish Kronor I think.

The auction ends in 15,5 hours. If we can't make it on this one, there will be other auctions.

[Genesis Knight]

I gave it some more thought, and I'll probably look for something more 'local' before I go this route. Thanks for the willing assistance, though, Zebbe.

[Zebbe]

Anytime :).

[David J.]

But yeah... this will work with US 32X's.

[Mr Smith]

If you buy it would do me the honour of playing your first game as Nottingham Forest? We were actually good when that game was made.

[Zebbe]

No, play as Djurgårdens IF. If the Swedish league Allsvenskan is present in the game, and if Djurgården was in that division back then, I actually don't remember... :D
