Alas I also once unknowingly passed on a unopened copy of Keio Flying Squadron for the SCD for $5 because a friend talked me out of it, saying he had played it and it sucked. I bought Earthworm Jim SE instead. I could kill him to this day although this was probably 5 years ago.

Although I don't have anything really special like Prototypes or Turnament carts, finding great classics I enjoy are my best finds.
#1: Galactic Attack (Saturn)
An awesome shooter I had been hyped to get for a long time. It ended up costing me $8 to buy at a local used game store and loved it as much as the screen shots I drooled over. Instant classic and supurb game in my collection.
#2: Paper Mario (Nintendo64)
Got it for $8 at a pawn shop and was SO happy to see it. I had always wanted to get it and check it out since I saw people playing the second one for the Gamecube. Although I only played a few hours worth I'm sure one day I'll dedicate time to go all the way.
#3: Prince of Persia 2 (Super Nintendo)
For a special price of $2, this decently rare game got baught and placed in my collection. I love the Prince of Persia games because of the puzzles and time limits. Finding this made me so happy because I already had the first for the SNES.
There's plenty of other games in my collection but these 3 games were the first to hit my mind as great finds personally. I guess it's also great they aren't SUPER amazing finds compaired to others on the forum so I have plenty of room to still shoot for the moon and find something nice.

1. Crazy Climber for $2.50 along with the system and 5 other games.
2. Suikoden II for $16 at a Toys R' Us.
3. Cubivore for $40 at a GameStop.
1) A PS1 with 14 games and a boxed analogue joystick for £7. It turned out two of the games were worth a £9 trade in each at Gamestation. I don't really collect PS1 games, so I traded in the console and 8 games for £35.
2) A Megadrive 1 with 9 games for £10. It turned out the console didn't work but I opened it up and wiggled some stuff, not knowing what I was doing. I managed to make it work enough to trade it in for £9. Then I sold two of the games for £2 each. So I got 7 games and £3.
3) I haven't had many great finds so my 3rd one is a bit so-so. I got a boxed clear blue GBA with a light, battery pack and charger for £8. I was pleased with it, especially considering Gamestation is selling the same style, boxed, for £35.
1. Bought a fully functional Sega Nomad for $50 from one of our customers (I'm the web/ebay guy at a comic book store). It's in primo condition too!
2. Found a Half Price Books with a HUGE stock of Sega CD games. Nothing super rare (no Snatchers, Keios, or anything like that), but what they had was super clean with unbroken cases. Yes, I bought them all.
3.Randomly walked into an EB and found Secret of Mana and Final Fantasy III, carts only. They were averagely priced. I couldn't pass them up of course.
