[norkusa]

As of today, I'm lifting my self-imposed ban on frequenting pawn shops . I though I just got lucky the past couple of times I hit them, but it looks like the pawn's around here are starting to lower prices on PSone games (finally!). Today I picked up the follwing complete and mint for $15 total:

Castlevania: SOTN (non-gh version)
Brigandine (map included)

Not bad. I've been holding off on purchasing SOTN for a long time now hoping to score a good deal in the wild. The funny thing is, every time I go into pawns now, they have ebay up on their computers and are checking prices. Guess they don't care about PSone titles anymore.

[dreamcaster]

Sega GT for Dreamcast - $10 AUS

[Masco73]

At a F.Y.E. store I bought:

Gauntlet Legends n64 $9.99 new

Soul Fighters $4.99 new


They also had like 5 copies of alien front online for $4.99, but I had it already.

[ManekiNeko]

I'd mentioned this already in another thread, but I scored a Bally Astrocade at a garage sale I visited yesterday. I paid four dollars for the system in its original box, with three games. Not a bad deal if I do say so myself.

Busy day Saturday.

At the Trenton Computer Show (an annual event at the Raritan Expo Center in NJ):

22 select PlayStation games (there were many more but I chose good titles, games I needed, or rare ones) including Intelligent Qube, Radiant Silvergun, Breath of Fire IV, Ghost in the Shell, FFIX, and more... $5 each! SEALED.

N64 Pokemon Snap, some RPG whose name escapes me, and Lode Runner 3d... $5 each. Sealed.

Not game related but picked up 8 laser disc movies including Caddyshack, Tron, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Revenge of the Pink Panther and several others, all original prints in superb condition, $8 each.

At the NJ Classic XXVII last night, all through trades:

Aquired via trade with Kid Ice, Two N64 systems, one boxed; at least 4 controllers, 4 memory cards, rumble pack, 25+ games.

Also from Kid Ice: Saturn Radiant Silvergun. AT LAST.

From TV's Hasselhoff: the coolest standee I've ever seen, and one that I didn't have the heart to break down after everyone left last night: Grand Theft Auto Vice City, the one with the hand-drawn girl in the pink bikini holding a martini glass. Too cool.

From Portnoyd: a dozen boxed Genesis games, including some really good titles like Sagaia, Gaiares, and Wardner.

From CX2K: a sealed Sega Mega Jet! Damn... I'll probably open it. If you're not sure, think "Mega-Drive Nomad but without a built-in screen".

[Queen Of The Felines]

Not much today...

D and Power Serve 3D Tennis complete for PSX, $15 total.

Pools of Radiance for C64, complete, $1.

I couldn't go garage saling today, as my synagogue was having a garage sale of their own, and I volunteered to help out.

However, I did buy some stuff there, so it worked out:

* A child's BMX bike, in pretty good shape, with training wheels.
* 3 Bootleg audio cassettes: Jackson Browne - 10/73, Jackson Browne - no date, and Billy Joel - 1976
* SNES - Mario Paint- bare, label in decent condition, but with 'Video Towne' barcode label affixed to the corner.
* Genesis - Sega Club - The Berenstain Bears - Camping Adventure, in box, no manual.

* 14 TI99-4/A Cartridges - These are all pretty dingy looking -
-- TI Addition & Subtraction 1
-- TI Addition & Subtraction 2
-- TI Early Reading
-- TI Beginning Grammar
-- TI Car Wars
-- TI The Attack
-- TI Early Learning Fun
-- TI Tombstone City
-- TI Multiplication 1
-- TI Division 1
-- AtariSoft Moon Patrol
-- AtariSoft Jungle Hunt
-- AtariSoft Ms. Pac-Man
-- AtariSoft Picnic Paranoia

--- All For $11.

Anybody here collect for the TI 99 ?

[AB Positive]

something else to come into the store today:

It's a PSX controller, but for only one hand. Apparently it'e perfect for RPGs as the X and O buttons are on what I can only call the 'trigger' finger of the controller, while two sets of the rest of the buttons are on the left and right sides of the D-pad. That way both leftys and rightys can use it. It's a neat little device that I'll be nabbing for 5 bucks.

A few more things on Saturday. Nothing great, just inexpensive games I need.

DREAMCAST

NFL Blitz 2000 (used complete) - $1.99
NBA 2K (used complete) - $1.99
Sydney 2000 (used complete) - 1.99
Blue Stinger (used complete) - 2.99
Seaman (used complete) - $2.99

[digitalpress]

Anybody here collect for the TI 99 ?

*raises hand*

Hey, you DEFINITELY want to check out that Picnic Paranoia you scored. It's a really fun game... reminds me of the game Rip-Off, except there are all different kinds of bugs trying to swipe your food. It's like Atari's dirty little secret or something, the game wasn't released in cartridge form on any other system, which was quite unlike the AtariSoft line. Try it out!

[scmsx]

This weekend I got a HandyVision, a extremely rare NES clone. :D
A photo of a HandyVision can be found here:
