I know the week hasn't started yet, well it will in approximately three hours for me :D
But I was so happy with this 'find' that I had to start this topic a bit early... :P
Sega Master System 2 with two controllers, Alex Kidd in Miracle World built-in game and the following cartridges:
Wonder Boy (cart. only)
Columns (boxed with manual)
Super Monaco GP (boxed with manual)
Super Space Invaders (boxed with manual)
Arcade Smash Hits (boxed)
All for the low price of.......NOTHING!!!!
Ahhh, gotta love free games!!!! :D
I know it's not exactly a rare find, but the 'free' factor I think is more than enough to boast about!!! LOL

Lode Runner - NES - $1.75
I don't know if it is rare.
I really don't care...I played the hell out of that game on my parents Apple, the NES version is very fun. Good memories and simple, classic gameplay.

Lode Runner is an old time fav of mine, and I too remember playing it on my Apple II. Excellent game!

Rockman X7 (new) for free -- sort of. I bought it with points. I had $50 worth from when I bought my DVD-R there some time ago. VERY mediocre game though. :(

Good old Gamestop
Sonic and Knuckles (complete) $5.99
Gunstar Heroes (complete) $4.99 :D
And wouldn't you know they end their sale and all of a sudden a lot of good price used games show up. I would've walked away with a lot more if it was still going on.

First finds in quite a while for me:
Mash for the Atari 2600 $1.49
Frogger (Complete, w/Box) for Commodore Vic-20 $1.49
And the following are complete with boxes, except where noted, and for the Intellivision. Each was $.99

Pretty good finds. I now have about 15-20 games for the Intelly, but no system, so I think that's what I am looking for next. I found these at two thirft stores.

i'm not much into the 2600 but today i hit up goodwill after work and snagged up two carts. they aren't the regular type 2600 games i usually see around, and for $1.25 each i said what the hell. maybe they are worth a million bucks.
Vidtec - word zapper
US Games _ M.A.D.
on a side note, i did see an article in my paper (may have been syndicated) about a woman who was married to a video game addict.. thought it was funny.

Found a whole slew of Jaguar games at Noble Collectibles hidden on a bottom shelf, just when i thought they'd never be able see beyond the Sony/Nintendo dichotomy. Helped myself to a loose Defender 2000 for only $10.
Think I'll go back and get I-War for the same price. It's not a a great deal, but since I'm not making it to CGE this year :( I'll have to take my comforts where I can find them.
