(Mods please delete my post in the early week finds)
Just had one of my best non-CGE hauls of Atari 2600 goodness. Closer scrutiny of the oft-overlooked 2600 pile at Replay Games netted the following treasures at $2 apiece.
Gunslinger
Cannon Man
Krull
The Challenge of Nexar
Gangster Alley
Infiltrate
M.A.D.
Bridge
Not too shabby given that this is the first time in six months I've bought 2600 titles.
:D

You mean the system with the sword and the point is to slash the enemies with the sword?

Toys R Us is having a SALE this weekend on GBA titles, and quite a few of the sale items are retro compilations. Picked up the following NEW today for $9.99 each:
Pac-Man Collection
Namco Museum
Konami Arcade Advance
Also got a GC-GBA link cable at Wal-Mart last night - an official Nintendo one, not a third-party accessory - for $7.99.
I also picked up both of the Star Wars Jedi Council action figure sets on the same visit, but that's a matter for another time. Hell of it is, I still need a GBA. LOL

Went to a local flea market, picked up a boxed and complete 3D Glasses with adapter for the Sega Master System for $5. They look like they've been rarely used, not a scratch. They were even wrapped in their original plastic wrap inside the box. :D

Picked up a Super Joy III 76000-In-1 unit new in box with 2nd controller and light gun for $29.95 at Robotica in the Grapeville Mines Mall (see other thread for details).
I noticed the bottom of the unit has a cart slot. Anyone know what it's for? The guy at the store said it was for other game collections, but I heard it would take Famicon carts -- does that include US NES ones?

I'm guessing that you can play Famicom carts, or Nintendo carts with a convertor in there.

I just plugged a regular ol' Nintendo cart in there. It fits either way (forwards or backwards). Neither way seems to do anything. Hm.
