I didn't technically find these at the weekend, but i have been too busy packing to be able to post it before, so here is my whole week's worth ... one of my better weeks!!

Megadrive - boxed, £2 each

Vectorman
Alisia Dragoon
Mutant League Football

NES

Duck Tales (complete) - 4.99
Rollergames (complete) 2.99

SNES

Krusty's Super Fun House (complete) - 4.99

N64

Zelda -Ocarina of Time (box and cart) - £3.99

PS1

Speedball 2100, Rogue Trip: Vacation 2012, Tekken 3 - all complete for £10
Warhammer: Dark Omem (complete) - £8.99

And ... my personal favourite find of the week ...

Two Shadowblade arcade sticks for the PS1 / PS2 for £15 each. I have not seen these before, but there was one in the window of Gamestation, so I went in and asked if I could try it out. They are *really* nice!! Heavy duty arcade sticks, with a brilliant design - curved so that they sit in your lap beautifully, solid as stone, metallic, clicky buttons and stick. Looks the bomb, feels the bomb, plays the bomb!! And there is even a cable tidy in the base of the stick, so that you can wind up the cable and hide it when it's not in use. And then the guy says "Actually, I think we've got another one out back ..." :D MmmmmmM!

Slim pickings until I hit the Goodwill today to look for stuff for my parents. They got in a slew of loose NES games and after sifting through the stuff I got:

Journey to Silius
Skate or Die 2

and, as if it was a glowing beacon amongst the pile of cheesy NES football and basketball games:

Tengen Tetris.

No box or instructions but the cart is near mint.

Paid $3 a piece.

I is one happy guy.

I'm not as hardcore a collector as everyone else is on here, so I merely have one item to report: Castlevania: Lament of Innocence. And He did say that it is teh rool. :D :D :D :D :D

I didn't technically "find" anything this past week, but I got both Castlevania: LoI and Ninja Gaiden for the SMS.

Ah... I knew you had it, but not that you just got it. :)

It's a little hard for me to focus on VG collecting when I also have a music collection to build.

Weekend Finds..I don't always list my weekly finds due to time allowance.
Every week I do find lots of stuff..

I pass a lot of things up..If I have it already,if I don't get a great deal on it,or if it's not profitable if I was to sell it.

I always see Nintendo carts..but crazily this week I didn't see one.

Best. Weekend. Yet. The drought is over...

I went home this weekend and swept 3 EB Games stores, a Target, and a thrift. Between the 3 EB stores after the GMR card, I got these all complete:

Super Nova - SNES, used - 4.49
Grid Runner - PS, used - 1.79
Contender - PS, used - .89
Invasion from Beyond - PS, used - 1.34
Hooters Road Trip - PS, used - 3.59
Colony Wars - PS, used - 2.69
Cardinal Syn - PS, used - 3.59
Iron Soldier 3 - PS, used - 4.49
Hoyle Casino - DC, used - 5.39
Rayman Arena - Xbox, new - 4.99
Extermination - PS2, new - 6.99
Home Run King - GC, new - 4.99
Nyko Playcube accessory - GC, used - 4.99
Inspector Gadget - GBA, new - 6.99

After trade-ins of crappy material and using the card, I only spent about 24 dollars total. 8-)

Then, I got Aces of the Air, Sorcerer's Maze, Austin Powers Pinball, Spec Ops: Airborne Commando, and Mortal Kombat Trilogy for 4.99 each at Target.

Finally, I found Mighty Bomb Jack and Arkanoid for NES loose at a thrift this morning at $2.00 each.

Incidentally, I passed up a pristine Mortal Kombat for Sega CD and Kartia for PS at EB Games. Kartia was gone this morning when I went back. Stupid moves?

On Kartia, yeah. That game has NEVER come into my store in the year or so it's existed. I've gotten Xenosagas, FF Chronicles and Anthologies twice, and even saw a Final Fight Guy come in before Kartia. Might just be my bad luck.
