Holy hell. Talk about being at the right place at the perfect time. 10 minutes later and who knows if they would have been there or not. Nice find! If you dont collect sealed games, sell them on ebay and make a couple hundred bucks! @_@

I may have a nice find... I'll see after work! My boyfriend left a message on my phone (He's off today and likes to go to Pawn shops looking for cheap DVDs.) He said something about "Dreamcast shakers" in a box at a Pawn shop up the road, priced at $20. He's not real knowledgeable about videogames, but this sounds like the Samba de Amigos maracas! I hope it's for real!
EnemyZero... awesome find, by the way!!! @_@

I'm finally a happy boy.
Found a very clean Dreamcast yesterday.....with a brand new drive and controller ports installed. The controller is mint as well. (in for service...never picked up). Even had the box and hookups.
Somebody dumped their DC games so I bought used copies of PenPen TriIcelon (one of my favorite DC games)....Sega Marine Fishing....Jet Grind Radio....the original Phantasy Star Online (character maxes out at level 100 instead of 200)....a PS2 Action Replay Max (really cheap, no packaging)....Ridge Racer PSX GH (used mint).
Spent half the evening starting a new PSO character and the other half playing Shenmue again. Found stuff in his house that I never found when I initially played it at launch.
Man, I missed the Dreamcast.

I finally find something at a Pawn! The "Dreamcast shakers" turned out to be a complete set of official USA Dreamcast Samba de Amigo maracas!
$20 plus tax. The box is a bit tatty, but its complete. It's got the game with it, too. I didn't have time to play it, but I'm taking it with me to my parent's house for Thanksgiving.
Happy Holidays

Haunted Mansion (XB, complete) - $5.44

I think I'm going to do the trade-in deal with the PSX plus 5 games for $35 store credit. Grudge Warriors will probably end up in that pile of games.

I know how you feel. I've had this game on pre order for the Cube since September. I would order it online but then I would loose my pre order credit. The girl at EB told me they MIGHT get it in Friday though.
Anyway I picked up a brand new copy of Beyond Good & Evil for the PS2 for $4.95+tax for a total of $5.23
EDIT* Just got back from a Salvation Arm where I picked up an Emerson 13" color t.v and a model 2 Genesis for $8.03 after tax

Goodwill, which is usually 'meh' at best, had a buttload of NES games in, many still with the sleeves.
Double Dragon 3 - $3.50
Star Force - $2/50
Base Wars - $2.50
Jordan Vs. Bird - $1/50
I also found a grey tin box with a black lid w/ the nintendo logo that holds ten games. I also noted there were ten NES games in the case, so I'm guessing someone decided to give up his games.
I also found a black Sega Sports Dreamcast for ten bucks.

Okay, after working a 15 hour shift for black friday, I decided I owed it to myself to stop at a game store on the way home. I hadn't been there in a little while and I was surprised to find they had reorganized. To my delight they had added new NES shelves so there were more games to peruse. My sleep deprived eyes quickly scanned the shelf and I didn't notice anything special until I reached the bottom and found a copy of Pro Sport Hockey in mint shape. This got me pretty excited and I was about ready to leave when another cart caught my eye. Yeah, it was Flintstones: Surprise at Dino Peak. All in all, the two carts cost me 7 bucks. Also, as this is my third copy of Flinstones, this one will likely appear in the Buy/Sell forum in the near future.
