Haven't gotten much in a while....took a hiatus from collecting in the last few months. But it seems I started looking again not a moment too soon!

Today, I picked up a couple of Microvision games (Alien Radiers and Star Trek Phaser Strike) with box and instructions at the local Salvation Army for $1.50 each.

Unfortunately, I don't have the Microvision Console so I will just have to imagine what it would be like to play them!

Anyone know any history (websites/links) about Microvision?

I got some manuals for Gauntlet, Rad Racer, Double Dragon, Bases Loaded 2, R.C. Pro AM, and rad racer 2 plus 10 nintendo dust covers, and a plastic nes game briefcase of some sort with nintendo written in gold on the front (metal).

All for.... $5 Canadian.

Pretty good if you ask me since I wanted the manuals for $1 each. He just kept on shooting free stuff at me.

[Dobie]

Complete, in minty-fresh box, with all the posters and everything, Chrono Trigger for SNES. $25.00. Plus I had store credit, so I walked out of there without paying a dime of my own money. 8-) Its not the find of the year, but I'm pretty happy.

Should I go back for the Super Mario RPG (same condition) for $15.99? It seems like a good deal.

[brandver3]

Got

Toki Tori (GBC, Boxed, New)- 9.99
Breath of Fire 2 (cart only)-20.00

[Darth Vader]

If it is as good as the chrono trigger, I would say yes!

Walked into a game store today, and found that someone had just traded in a Sears Video Arcade II (htf) and about 50 carts.
