I found an N64 lot at a yard sale this morning for $45:
N64 Atomic Purple set (2 controllers, all hookups, and instructions, no box)
Namco Museum 64 (new, sealed)
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (gray cart, complete)
Xena: Warrior Princess (complete)
Mario Kart 64 (loose w/ manual)
Goldeneye (loose w/ manual)
Madden 64 (loose)
Star Wars: Episode 1 Racer (loose)
Nintendo brand memory card (new, sealed)
Official carrying case (used)
Somehow, though, I still feel like I got gipped. I didn't have anything listed here except another N64 system. However, I also went to 3 thrifts and a moving sale and didn't find anything. I'm just not sure that I didn't buy this stuff because I didn't want the day to go to waste. I don't want to post another thread on this, but can I get some feedback on whether I got a good deal or not?

Figure it this way, you paid $5 each for 9 N64 games and got a free N64 thrown in that you can probably sell for $10-$20 if you don't want a second one.

Sunday at the flea I picked up 8 TG-16 games for $15 (talked the guy down from $2 each). They were sitting in a pile of music CDs. Thank goodness for the rather distinctive spines of TG-16 games or I may have passed right over them. All with case and instructions, but unfortunately they're mostly sports games:
Bonk's Adventure
Final Lap Twin
Jack Nichlaus Turbo Golf
Moto Roader
TV Sports Football
TV Sports Hockey
World Class Baseball
World Court Tennis
Then on the way home I decided to stop at Gamestop on the off chance they had Metal Slug X for Playstation (I've been wanting this bad recently). Sure enough they did! I didn't get as good a deal as esquire though (paid $20 new).
