Damn that felt weird, writing the date the wrong way round :/ Month, then day? Crazy, if you ask me ... anyways...

Not sure if this counts as a mid-week find, technically, since I paid for it ages ago.. but it's been shipped surface mail so it was almost like finding it again when it arrived this morning! A nice big load of Megadrive imports:

Ghostbusters, Fist of the North Star, Dick Tracy, Thunder Force 2, After
Burner 2, DJ Boy, Rambo 3, Crack Down, Tatsujin , New Zealand Story, Super
Shinobi, Valis 3, Golden Axe, Super Thunder Blade, Wardana's Forest (Wa-dana no mori), King of Peacock 2 (Kujaku Ou 2)

All in absolutely MINT condition, for $70 shipped. Sweet :D
Oh yeah, and I got three Genesis games with it - Eternal Champions, some football (soccer) game, and some hockey game. Also mint, but I don't really give a monkeys about them, to be honest :-D

oops!! edited price. forgot how much i paid. still, $70 for 20 games, that's less than $4 a game, which would be good even for domestic games if they were half decent and in mint condition ...

I got a few eBay Vectrex finds this week:

For $50, the following carts arrived:
1. 3D Crazy Coaster
2. 3D Narrow Escape
3. Armor Attack
4. Berzerk
5. Blitz!
6. Hyperchase

Unfortunately nothing but the carts. I don't know if I'll ever have a chance to test out the 3d games :(. A boxed / complete 3D imager was going for over $700 on eBay!

Separately for $10 I won a Heads Up Soccer with overlay.

woohoo!

Gamestation -

Bloodshot (Megadrive) complete, £2.00
Dreamcast Arcade Stick - £7.99 - brand new

I love Gamestation for two reasons. One, they are the only game shop in town that still stocks used 16 bit and 8 bit games. In fact they are the only shop in town that still stocks used Saturn games. But also, all the stuff that gets traded in sits in boxes that are clearly visible from the counter. So I go in, check the shelves and then lean over the counter and scope the trade-in boxes! Got lots of deals that way!

That's how I picked up the DC stick yesterday. I don't know why it was in the Trade in box, but I asked about it, he ran it through the till and it hadn't been priced .. so he made a price up. Which was fine by me!

Super Mario Brothers 2 and 3 Complete - $5
Sonic 2 and 3 Complete - $7

My town has to be the worst place to try and find games. There are barely any at yard sales/flea markets/ect. Yet when you do find them they are pretty cheap.

Welcome to the boards Viper! Those are some decent finds, as far as I'm concerned. Hope you enjoy it here ... don't forget to introduce yourself in the "Introduce Yourself" thread at the top of the board.

We're a friendly bunch, and we always like to hear about new community members!
