I have a question, notice the mattel football cartridge, it has a white label with black letters, instead of the normal black label w/blue letters that mattel 2600 games normally have. Is this just a variation or is it supposed to be this way? Please help thanks!

You'll notice the 2600 Star Raiders complete I got today. Woohoo, its very nice too, only thing is, its missing the comic book :( , other than that its top notch condition. The Imagic game is Fathom.

[Felixthegamer]

After a couple of busy weeks without looking, I had some finds today.
At the flea market:
A Japanese Bomber Man game for N64, $15
Mouse Trap (w/ a sticker on the back saying, "Bonus Cartridge included with Gemini Purchase. Non-Refundable") for 2600, $2
StarGunner for 2600, $2
Beauty and the Beat for Intellivision, $2
Quickshot joystick, $1
Tandy joystick, $1
At the thrift store:
FF:Mystic Quest for SNES, $3.99
Drakkhen for SNES, $3.99
Dinosaurs for Hire for Genesis, $1.99
Also, for free I found a box with instructions for Demon Attack for the Vic 20. Unfortunately, no game inside.

[Ed Oscuro]

My game suppliers ran out of some item or other, so they let me have two pretty nondescript original MSX (i.e. 1985) titles AND

Gargoyle's Quest 2, Japanese Version (c. 1992--was there a reprint? That sounds late to me, but then again it doesn't seem to be)

in place of that. Basically, I got Gargoyle's Quest, complete with a perfect cartridge and manual, for $10.

Not a bad catch.

[scooterb23]

Not much...don't have any money...

Gekioh
Magix Music Maker

both for $10 total at Toys R Us

[Ed Oscuro]

Gekioh
Magix Music Maker

Do you mean Yu-Gi-Oh? Don't kill me if you hate that game and I don't know of Gekioh, but that's what it sounds like.

[hezeuschrist]

Gekioh is a new PSX budget title, it's a shmup.

[Ed Oscuro]

Gekioh is a new PSX budget title, it's a shmup.

Oh...quite good, is it?

[Quintracker]

I braved the rain this morning to see if there were any yard sales still being held. Picked up:

Boxed NES Action Set $8
N64 steering wheel and pedals $5

[scooterb23]

@ Ed - Just played Gekioh a little bit. Pretty good...not as frantically paced as some of the shmups I've played lately, but a lot of fun. I acutually enjoyed having more firepower than my opponents for once!!!

I definitely recommend it, especially if you get it in the 2 for 1 sale at TRU.

[Ed Oscuro]

Thanks man! Nothing quite like a stream of fire from your direction taking up a quarter of the screen to warm the spirit :)

[Sega Hitman]

I did lots of garage sales in the past few days. I found:

Oddworld: Abe's Odysee--complete $3
Legend of Zelda--loose $6 (it was in really nice shape. i was like "ah, what the hell")
SNES Sunset Riders--loose $2
SNES Super Metroid--loose $2
Gen Shining Force--loose $1 (!)
SNES Slam Masters--loose $1
SNES Lagoon--loose $1

I checked out Toys R' Us also, and picked up Parappa the Rapper 2 for $20, but got Tomb Raider 1 for free. Not bad.

Eh, my home town held a city wide garage sale today throughout the entire downtown area. I walked the whole thing, and only found one guy with anything. But at least, I bought something from him!

http://ourworld.cs.com/Gunstarhero9/gamestuff1.jpg

I don't know if its super challenge football with an alternate label or not, because I don't have super challenge football.

[coleco_chris]

I picked up SNES loose copy of Chrono Trigger for $4.99, an Atari 2600 6-switch for $1.49, a working original Atari 2600 joystick for .49, and a couple of loose NES games for a buck a piece. Haven't had a chance to check out the 2600 unit as it didn't have a power supply, but for $1.49, you can't go wrong!
