That's it for the month.

Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness - $5
Army Men: Sarge's Heroes - $5
Army Men: Sarge's Heroes 2 - $5
Dynamite Headdy - $9
Decap Attack - $7
Sonic the Hedgehog (nope, it's European) - $20

Nothing spectacular, but I've been wanting Legacy of Darkness for some time. The Army Men games are childhood memories, but haven't aged too well, it seems. Sonic is nice to have, even if it's the European copy. I actually like the 8-bit Sonic games more than the 16-bit ones.

These 3 for $5.00 starts my nes collection.

Got a classic football hand held by Mattel for 5.00 but it ended being a 2000 issue. I feel taken on that :(.

Did some trades and sold a few things and picked these up at the NAVA show ($1.25ea)

Yup it pretty much is. It is a Pong-like game console manufactured from 1976 through the early '80s and made by Tandy. Distribution was handled exclusively by Radio Shack.

[theclaw]

$10 each. I guess I'm planning toward Wii U after all. No console yet.

Epic Mickey Collector's Edition, sealed (Wii)
Assassin's Creed 3 (Wii U)
Call of Duty Black Ops 2 (Wii U)
Batman Arkham City (Wii U)
Tekken Tag Tournament 2 (Wii U)

Final Fantasy Tactics, Puzzle Star Sweep & A Generic PS1 Memory Card - 1.25

Puzzle Star Sweep is a great little puzzle game and if Boardgame Top Shop wasn't so addicting, it would easily be the best of the A1 line.

Worth almost nothing though...

Nice find on the PSX stuff, Luis! Also, what is up with those NESes? Did someone paint the shells, or did the cart doors just go really yellow?

[FamicomFreak]

Yeah, they were painted white! The only thing they need are new pins which is an easy fix. Both consoles work well. I think if I can't sell them locally I will just buy the pins, mod them, finish the paint job and sell them for profit. :p

Who ever did the refurbishing job probably didn't want to ruin the official Nintendo decal lettering so they left the tray lid alone and that's the results.

That's why I don't mess with cosmetics of the console unless it's a custom paint job. Who ever did that job spent a lot of time for some pretty bad results.

One of those is so bad the plastic looks like it was bleached and the tray door is yellowed as can be. Personally I would have rather just had the yellow tinted look all around and just clean the console with an antiseptic.

Good to hear, I was actually just going to get FFT at first but looking over the PS1 games again while waiting to pay I noticed and decided to also grab PSS.

[The Adventurer]

Its been really thin on the ground the last couple of months but I've finally got enough stuff together to talk about. I decided to try my had at making a video of my finds, where I can talk a bit about them. So this is an experiment, one I do hope to do more of in the future.
