Nothing really too exciting. Came home today with:
2600
Commando Raid
Omega Race
Gunslinger
Target Fun
Tac Scan
Galaxian
Auto racing
Finally went and bought a N64 - they are all of $19 around here. I sorta felt sorry for it since it was in a big pile of other N64s. Is there any good games for it besides the obvious Mario ones?
I picked up Forsaken for $5 NIB to try it out on.
Also, I got Starflight in the mail from the GOAT store. I loved it on the Amiga, now I'm gonna play it on the Genny.
Lastly,
The game stores near me have a sale on either new or used Saturn games (complete) for $6. Anyone looking for anything?

My trip to the fleas netted The Krion Conquest for the NES. I paid three bucks, but I found it to be a rather fun Mega Man clone.
The only other thing I found was the manual for Wardner on the Genesis. Anyone need it?
For some nice N64 titles that don't involve Mario or Zelda, try Jet Force Gemini, Ogre Battle 64, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Conker's Bad Fur Day, and the import Sin and Punishment.

Very nice what condition is it in? Are you willing to sell it or trade it?

@ickbr: I'm looking for both the Panzer Dragoons, Burning Rangers, and also Guardian Heroes, Virtual On, Shining Force 3, Fighters Megamix and Darkstalkers 2.
I've already got Guardian Heroes, but it's loose (disc only).
If they have any of those for $6, I would be forever in your debt if you would pick them up for me :D . Also, I've just been basically trying to build up my Saturn collection...if they have any good, non-sports games, I would most likely be interested in them. Truth to tell, I know very little about what games were good for the system, and the ones above are just the ones I've been looking for recently.
Anyway, thanks in advance for any help.
P.S. Sorry if this message sound incoherent...I've been sick all day.

I did good today..got:
Suikoden 2 (complete, manual missing cover)! Already sold it (within about 3 minutes of mentioning it on one of the message boards I hang out on) for $50! :) I can't believe sealed copies are hitting $175 on eBay now, and used mint ones over $100!!!!

A few months ago I stocked up on Suikoden 2's from some local stores ended up with about 8 copies for around $30 a piece. It's insane what people are paying for these on ebay. When I bought them I started selling them off at $50-60 each but now they just keep going higher and higher, I'm not sure why buyers are paying that much for it. I haven't had a very hard time finding copies locally.

The only thing I got was a copy of Joust with manual for NES for $4 CDN (about 2.50 USD).

Not much to find really, hasn't been for a few weeks. But I did pick up a complete MIB copy of Hurricanes for the SNES this morning, it's about time I found something good outside of ebay for my collection.

I can tell you offhand, that any of the harder games to find (Guardian Heros, Shining Force, etc) aren't there or I would have picked them up :) I will look for the rest however.
Of the two stores that have Saturn games in stock, one has about 30 different titles, the other one about 60 so if it's fairly common, I'm sure they have it.

Bought Resident Evil for GC for 19.99 with a gift card I received for X-Mas. It seems someone was trying to hide it by putting it in the PC department, but I found it. LOL

@icbrkr: Thank you. I don't really know too much about Saturn games (I bought my staurn for $15 when they were throwing everything related to it away at FuncoLand), so I just listed the ones offhand that I had heard were great games and that I didn't yet own. I'm pretty much looking for good, non-sports titles. I have:
Baku Baku
Darius Gaiden
Clockwork Kinght 2
Guardian Heroes (loose)
Metal Slug (which I can't play because I haven't yet been able to aquire a ram cart)
NiGHTS
Prikura Daisakusen
So I'm looking for any other fun, non-sports games. I can probably afford to buy (and pay shipping on) about five at that price, so if you see any good ones I didn't mention, I'll trust your judgement. :D

I got a Coleco Ms. Pacman tabletop for $5.99 CDN. :)

It's in really good condition, from what I can tell. The plastic film overtop of the control panel has some bubbles in it, and it's peeled about 1 cm up at the corner, but the film is still there. The battery cover is there too, and none of the labels are ripped or anything.
It even came with a DC power pack, though I'm sure its an aftermarket thing. Actually, it's the Coleco brand one... cool. :)
I'd really prefer to sell it, and I'm probably going to put it on eBay. But if you want it, feel free to email me an offer. ;)

Kid Fenris:
Still have the Wardner manual? :) I'll take it, I don't know if you want cash or something for it. PM me back with your address and what you would like for it.

It has been a slow week for me as well... All I found was "Tokyo Xtreme Racer" for the DC complete for $7.99.
@Chunky - I would be interested in one of the battery packs...

Most recently, I found Antarctic Adventure and Choplifter for the ColecoVision, along with Chump Norris Superkicks/Artillery Duel for the 2600. These were pretty exciting finds when you consider how tough it's been to find ANYTHING lately.

P.S. Now I'm even happier that I bought a copy of Suikoden II. It's a rental copy and probably not in great shape, but nevertheless, it's a good game that's worth keeping. There's a reason people are clamoring for copies right now.
