This happend a few weeks ago. I just rejoined so I just wanna share my rant.

I went to Goodwilla few weeks ago. I was going to see the movie Mr. Deeds and Goodwill was right next door. So I went in they had a slew a games for 1.00 a pop. So I dug around. I found Crazy Climbers. I had to look twise before I belived it. I picked it up but for some reason it was a bit light. I looked into the bottom of the game and some jackass made off with the entire insides of the game! All I had left is the damn shell! Till this day I think Gods messin with me...

When I told the lady at the register that it was missing it's umm... insides, she gave me the shell for free. I don't wanna sell it cuz it's like a memory of torture. But you know how idians sacrafise people for rain? It's weird. Once that happend I found 17 games for 00.50 each. And my grandmaw gets a seinior citizens discount so I got em all for 15% off. So I got em for about 5.00 for all 17 games. I got 1 rarety 5 and about two 4's.

What is the rarity, and what do you mean by two fours?

AtariAge.com has a rarety database that can tell you the rarety of a game. Like...

Rarety 1: Common game that almost every collector has.
Rarety 2: This one varys among collectors but most have it.

It keeps going. Go to www.atariage.comto find out more.

I found a Decathlon cart for the Colecovision once with no insides, and the weird part was that there were no screw holes in the label. It's almost like it came that way from the factory.

Crazy Climber was only available through the Atari Club via mail order, so it's a tad on the "hard to find" side...

At a tag sale earlier this year, I spotted an SNES gun sticking out of a box. When I looked in, I quickly spotted Secret of Mana and Illusion of Gaia boxes! I was extatic, until I realized that the cartridges were nowhere in the box or at the tag sale, nor were there cartridges in any of the other SNES game boxes. The guy actually managed to lose all of the cartridges, but not any box or manual!

My Crazy Climber cart has two screw holes in the front too. Right thru the label! Two infact. And they tried to do it with a screw driver.

Man Atari Guy, that sucks! I went to a thrift once and foud a Chrono Trigger game but no Chrono Trigger.

AtariGuy, did you pick up those empty SNES game boxes? I could use a box and manual for Illusion of Gaia.

I need Chrono Trigger. But I think the Game Trader has it for a good price. I might go get a copy.

I would have bought them and got the games later. That way I would have completed the games. Anyway, what kind of dumb ass idiot would rip the entire chip out of this game? And why this one of all games???!!!
