A tremendous score for me today....

SNES (complete):

Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasy III
Brain Lord
Secret of Evermore
Illusion of Gaia
Uncharted Waters
Wario's Woods
Star Gate
7th Saga
+ a few others I can't quite place at the moment

SNES loose:
Harvest Moon
Earthbound
+ 10 other commons

NES:
Final Fantasy (complete)
+ 15 other commons

Game Boy (complete):
Mario Picross
Space Invaders

Plus an N64, Playstation, SNES, and 2 NES Toploaders(!), the first 105 issues of Nintendo Power, and numerous strategy guides for the abouve mentioned games. Funny thing is, I didn't actually see any of this stuff until after I paid for it today. I knew what I was getting, with the exception of the toploaders. I saw NES on the list and just figured that they were "toasters". Imagine my surprise!

I traded off most of the duplicate commons I had to get Prince of Persia for the Xbox, and Mario & Luigi for the GBA. :D

Seriously. Oh, and the does suck... but I;m happy now, as we FINALLY are getting snow here in Athens! *hopes it holds until Tuesday so we get Monday off*

Woooo! Good weekend!

Went down to my girlfriends parents' house and cleaned out the basement and attic.

1 NES System Sports Pack box in EXCELLENT condition (no styrofoam though)
1 SMS box with foam in good condition

4 switch, pre-woody 2600 system with a few games. A cat peed on it though and it doesn't seem to be working.....yet

NES system and accessories with a few games

TRS-80 with a few games

Working on getting an SMS right now from her cousins....

[Duncan]

Finally picked myself up a Dreamcast. No, I didn't save incredible amounts of money, but I did pretty well considering:

Dreamcast console with hookups and 1 controller: $25
White VMU (used): $5
Soul Calibur (complete, quite good shape): $20

All this from my friendly neighborhood GameStop.

I have yet to hook the thing up, though...I'm debating which console I should nudge out of the way for the time being. It'll probably be the PSone, since I'm eventually getting the LCD screen for it (I should be able to get a killer clearance deal after the holidays...Target is starting to blow out the PS1 stuff).
