Picked up Movie Musical Madness for C64 (.50)
They had 4 other C64 games (Kickman, Kindercomp, Buck Rodgers, Blueprint) , but they wanted 2.00 each, so I passed.
Also saw a Commodore Terminal VIC(Plenty of numbers after this). Anyone know what it was?

15 boxed intellivision games with instructions and overlays and two unboxed intellivision game--the rarest was demon attack--around .80 cents apiece. And a mad katz steering wheel and pedal for the n64 for $2.50. To funny as I just paid $3.00 dollars for just the steering wheel at the same goodwill just over a month ago.

Friday I found a nice Suikoden at Gamestop for $20 something after the 10% off deal. Yesterday I found 10 complete Genesis games at a different Gamestop. Most of them were older uncommons like Sword of Vermillion, but I also got that Magic School Bus game complete. That's the first time I've seen a complete one before. Today I found a complete Star Control for PC (which will hit eBay sooner or later). I also picked up Battletech for Genesis for $4, and a complete copy of the Sonic 1 label variant for $5 (see my post in the collecting forum where I try to figure out where the hell these came from).

Where do you guys/gals find this stuff? We have GameStop/Funcoland and EB Games places around...and they are selling their usually common overpriced things. Then we have Record Exchange's which sell games also, but really much doesn't show up. Flea markets?
Flea markets around here just have old furniture, knives and guns, and tons of stinky immigrants (perhaps?) with their semi-trucks full of counterfeit batteries from China and other goods (for dirt cheap prices....but no way. Fuck them!~)

HAHA! What a find this weekend. My son and I hit a church fair while on our yard sale rounds. The sale looked pretty lame, nothing of even remote interest except a lifejacket that some old lady yelled at me was already sold when I picked it up. We were about to leave when my son says "hey we didn't go in that door". There was a tiny sign with an arrow leading to a back room. In there I found a complete and possibly unused Odyssey2. The box is pretty nice though one flap has partially rotted away from a basement or something. The console is pristine. I brought it up to the old lady covering that room and she asks, "so does this thing take cartridges?" I tell her it does and she says "hang on there's some in the back that may be right". I'm standing there like, hey cool, maybe they have some atari carts or something, I never find those anymore. She comes out with a box of what are possibly NIB Odyssey2 carts. They are all complete, there are probably 20 of them, and they are all in original retail condition. Some of them look unopened. She wanted $5 for the whole lot! I didn't even look through them, I just handed her a $10 (my son found some stuff he wanted) and we left. When I got home I looked through them and at the bottom of the box was Quest for the Rings. I don't know much about the Odyssey2 but this sure as hell got my attention as the box is huge and beautiful. Inside are ALL of the pieces, in the original plastic bags, with the original resume quality paperwork and the gameboard that is absolutely glossy and perfect. I am convinced that they did open this game but sure as hell never played it.
Oh, and I also found an SNES (works well but filthy) with 7-8 good games and some random Genny games for $5.
