Nice, looks like you finally snagged up Buster Doug. Grats on that one :D

[fishsandwich]

Gamestop is still having the half-off sale (at least in some stores) if anyone is interested. I just picked up a bunch of complete games for $5 each or less. Mostly pretty commmon stuff like Chicken Run and D2, but I did get Grandia 2 and DOA2 for $5 each.

Cheers

[ChronoTriggaFoo]

Let's see. On Friday evening I went to EB Games and snatched up Uncharted Waters: New Horizons for the SNES for $3.99 and then got Mick and Mack: Global Gladiators for the Genesis for free with a coupon. I also got Sega Bass Fishing for the Dreamcast for only $1.49 :D Now I can finally use my Dreamcast Fishing Controller! Last but not least I picked up SOCOM: US Navy Seals with the headset in box for $9.99.

Later on that evening I stumbled across five complete Sega Genesis games for $1 apiece at Half Price Books:

Super Monaco GP
Altered Beast
Math Blaster Episode 1 (R6)
After Burner II
Super Thunder Blade

On Saturday, I found Mario Party and Mario Party 3 for the N64 for $4 each.

That's it for now!

[Cauterize]

I think this is the first time I've had a real find,

Gamestop 50% sale

Marvel Vs Capcom (usually $20 here got it for $10)
Rainbow Six Rogue Spear ($7)

The shop where I live has a couple Midways Hits Vol2 for DC, its semi-rare, I'll pick them up. Does anyone know how small its run really was? The guide stipulats about 2000?

-Tritium

[-hellvin-]

Thanks grayfox, I'm glad to have finally gotten that game outta the way.

All these people picking up DC games at gamestop...I don't even think my locations carry em anymore =(.

[krbrunn]

First the sad: I went to a local pawn shop, and they had like 10 sega saturn games, most crap, but a few good ones like Panzer Dragoon, Shining Wisdom etc for only 8.99. They take cash only, so I had to run to a bank machine, get money, and come back. I get back, and ask to check them out before I buy a bunch of them.

Basically all of them were ex-rentals that someone ripped the stickers off of the disk, tearing part of the top off of them. So they were useless. Except the Shining Wisdom. So I got that. I was sad, I wanted Panzer Dragoon.

Then at my local VV they had a Panasonic Real 3D0 FZ-10 for 9.99, as well as the American Lazer Games Gamegun for 4.99, so I bought them both.. There was no controller for the 3D0 or a A/V hookup, as well as no games, which was weird. Oh well, I'm happy with what I got anyway.

[evilmess]

I went to the GW on my lunch break and ended up buying a loose Dreamcast console HKT-3021.

I grabbed it for spare parts to fix a DC I have with a faulty controller port but then I noticed the "Demo-Kiosk" label on the bottom. A quick google search revealed this info. http://www.dreamcasthistory.com/kiosk.html

@Helvin: Awsome score, man.

Thanks a bunch. One of the pawn shops also had resident evil 2 and 3 for the gamecube but they wanted 30 & 40 respectively. With current ebay prices that's a pretty good score but it was outta my price range for the moment.


Silent Bomber for the PS1 complete

Nice score there. A shop nearby me has it for the same price, I think I gotta run down there and grab it. Heard it's a great game.

[DigitalSpace]

Not a bad haul. Though I think Rad Racer is missing a pin, something I forgot to check before I bought it. And the pawn shop does not do returns. x_x Oh well, I should always check the pins, lesson learned.

A few of my nes games are like this, I think they may have been made that way.

Seriously, kick ass snag man. That's some nice Ebay-watching when you snag a BIN like that. I mean, Shadowrun is even in there as well. Kick ass stuff.

You must be right, because I popped it in my NES and it works fine. It actually seemed to work quicker than the other two I got, both of which took me a while to get playing properly.

Ok....I got off work around 5pm today and headed to a local pawn shop where I first bought the Family Guy Seasons 1-3 for $30!!! That was awesome in itself.

Then, I headed to the other pawn shop in town where a friend had been holding The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker and Legend of Zelda 2 Disc Bonus set for $10 each :D

After purchasing that, I had to go change my oil at Wal-Mart. On my way I passed a Goodwill and was like "Hmm, just maybe"

Sure enough, I had myself another great find !!!
