The blurb on the back says, "Corporation is the first 360-degree 3D Role Playing Action Adventure for the Mega Drive. Infiltrade the futuristic defences of the powerful Corporation in a mission to expose its evil experiments in Genetic Mutation. And watch out for Freddy!"
Does that help? :)

These arrived in the mail today. Yeah, I know those don't really count as finds, but I was looking for Spanky's Quest for a while and I'm glad to finally have it. I've wanted to see how it holds up to the SNES version.

Found a new thrift in the area. Picked up Megaman 2 for 1 dollar. Had quite a few other NES and Genny games, but descided to wait to see how easy their price was to remove from the label. Quite easy as it turns out. Probably will return to clean the rest of the games out and pick up the two mint Atari 2600 joysticks for a buck too.
A wierd collecting day today.
First I purchased 2 Xbox games: Very Weird for me anyways
SVC Chaos $12
Burnout 3 $16 An EA game I haven't purchased one of these since populus (GEN)..

Thats sounds badass!

Cannon Spike is a truly awesome game. It really slipped under the radar but I think this one is going to become more sought after once people realize how it has so many Capcom characters in a beat em up game. I think you can be megaman too. I like to play as the little red riding hood chick with uzis.

I finally caved and bought a DS today. Blue, with a free copy of Mario 64 DS. Not nearly as fluid as the N64 version, but fun nonetheless, with some new areas to check out. Also grabbed Zoo Keeper. It's a fun little puzzler and worth the $20 I spent on it.

I went into Gamestation today. There wasn't much to buy as it was all highly priced. I saw some sealed SNES games and considered buying one but thought I may as well get a game I'm going to play. Then I realised it was obvious they resealed them as they keep the games behind the counter. I decided to go for Mortal Kombat 2 with a nice mint box. That's a very hard game, at least for me. I keep dying in seconds. LOL
Then I got some megadrive games
Jurasic Park Rampage Edition for £1.99
and Batman Returns for £1.99
It turns out Batman doesn't work. It comes up with the initial "licensed by..." or whatever it says then it just stays on a blank screen. It's not worth taking back because the car park costs £1.30/hour :/ I'll probably take it back next Wednesday when I see War of the Worlds.
EDIT: Batman works now, it must have just had dirty contacts
Now I'm debating whether or not to break the seal on Mortal Kombat 2, even though I know it's a reseal. Keeping it sealed would keep it nice and mint, but I need to read the manual for combos and what have you.

Well, I hit another mall around here and checked the GameStop and EB. Like the GameStop before, this one had a ton of PlayStation games and a fair number of N64 games, but yet again, the selection was poor and I couldn't find anything worth buying.
However, at the EB, I found a bunch of N64 games at fairly reasonable prices, so I loaded up. It's nothing too spectacular (I almost didn't buy anything, but I really wanted Star Soldier), but they're all games I'd like to give a try and figured I couldn't do much of any better with eBay prices:
1080 Snowboarding - 3.99
Milo's Astro Lanes - 2.99
Wave Race 64 - 3.99
Star Soldier - 2.99
Extreme G2 - 2.99
Glover - 2.99
S.C.A.R.S. - 1.99
Turok: Rage Wars - 1.99
Hopefully I'll get some enjoyment out of at least a few of these. :)

This week, so far, has turned out quite good for me.
On Monday, I got home at 4pm and found these waiting for me in the mail:
http://www.cs.utah.edu/~goldberg/randompics/mail-mon.jpg
The Saturn and the NSecret of Mana/KOEI NES games are from DP members (thanks Kuros and dave2236) and the complete Mega Man 4 was won off eBay (for only $10.75 shipped!).
I then headed out to the thrift store where the following items awaited me:
http://www.cs.utah.edu/~goldberg/randompics/di-mon.jpg
The games were $3 each (OOTW is complete) and the Genesis 2 power adapter was $1
I decided my luck was high today so I decided to do a run of the west side game stores. In the national chains I found these:
http://www.cs.utah.edu/~goldberg/randompics/otherstores.jpg
One GameCrazy had a near-complete Lunar 2 (just missing the pendant) in great condition (only the box is a little worn/slight tear). For $30, it was mine. That one also had the Ignition Factor which I've been looking for so I snagged it for $5.
Another GameCrazy had both Final Fantasies and, though loose, I don't know if I'll ever see them for $20 a pop again so I grabbed them both (the guy at the store said the guy had traded in every single Final Fantasy - I saw all the PSX ones (non-GH), the NES one, and the three Gameboy Final Fantasy Legends - they looked to be sealed).
At a GameStop I found some games I had been looking for - Silent Bomber for $15 (with book, but not original case) and GBA Tactics Ogre for $18 (both prices before GameStop card discount).
Another GameStop had the used but complete GBA games you see on the right. I thought $25 for complete Aria of Sorrow and $13 for complete Metroid Fusion were quite fair prices.
Finally, an independent used game store has had that Herzog Zwei for $15 forever and I have always been considering it. A few months ago when I first discovered the store, ti had two copies of HZ - one with the box (also $15). I had only just started collecting Genesis and thought that wasn't a good deal without the manual. It was gone the next time I went and I've been kicking myself since then.
But my best haul of the day was found among the two stores of a local used music/game/movie chain. They always have Buy 2 Get 1 free on their games $5.99 and under (which is most pre-PSX/N64 games). So, here is what I got that wasn't in that category:
http://www.cs.utah.edu/~goldberg/randompics/graywhale-regular.jpg
ZOE 2 and Jedi Starfighter were $8 each and Mega Man 4 was $6 (I always find games I want in the wild after I order them online). Those prices are after my discount card.
Here were the B2G1 Free games I got:
http://www.cs.utah.edu/~goldberg/randompics/graywhale-b2g1.jpg
Best of the lot are the Aerobiz Supersonics (too bad about the sticker on the label of the Gen one) and Shining Force. Though Dynamite Headdy, Alisia Dragoon, Space Harrier II, Thunder Force III, Claymates, and Super Metroid are nothing to sneeze at. Since the most any of these games are stickered for is $6, that means the most I paid for any of these if $4 ($3.33 each is probably a better average).
So I spent a lot of money on Monday and was happy.
Tuesday, I head to a different thrift store and find this load:
http://www.cs.utah.edu/~goldberg/randompics/di-tue.jpg
Okay, so nothing of note except maybe General Chaos and Wonder Boy (which , of course, I just bought online a week ago), but for $3 a piece, I'll take these extremely complete games (many had registration cards/advertisement posters inside as well as the manual). There were maybe 6 other games, but they were either incomplete, sports games, or ones I had.
Today, I head back to the thrift store I went to Monday and found these:
http://www.cs.utah.edu/~goldberg/randompics/di-wed.jpg
Okay, selection definitely going down as week goes on, but for $2 each, I'll take 'em.
This definitely looks to be my best week in a long time!

3 Saturn Promo/Pack-in discs - $0.50 each at The Exchange
Ikaruga GC - $16 at the Exchange
Donkey Kong Jungle Beat GC - $30 at The Exchange, I was about to buy a complete copy of Mario Golf: Advance Tour for $14 when I noticed this box in a case on my way out, I asked to look at it -- it was used, but the bongos looked they had never been played and everything was there, so I couldn't resist! (sorry mario golf!) This game was just so damn fun on the kiosk demos, I love it!
Gundam Side Story and SFIII Third Strike DC - $5 each at The Exchange
Xenosaga II Limited Edition Strategy Guide - $2 at Gamestop
MGS2: Substance (2 Copies) - I was trying to get a deal on this forever. I finally found one I was happy with on eBay, and when I got it, the cover insert looked like it had been soaking in dirty water for a day or two, so I returned it. Almost the next day I saw a nice copy used at GameStop for $25 so I just broke down and bought it, then a couple of days after that, I saw a copy at Cash-In Culture for $8, which I had to buy out of spite. I'm just glad I'm done with this game now.
Best for last:
Master of Monsters Genesis, Complete, and MINT (the manual looks like it has never been touched) - $5 at The Exchange
A good bit of this stuff is going to be up for sale/trade, I'll link once I make the thread. (And please feel free to inquire about anything!)
This is just the 'wild' stuff I've found, I've been buying a ton of NGPC and GBA complete stuff off eBay and forums, but I figure I was cheating already, so this will do for now. ;)

Got a RGB modded PC Engine today, but it doesn't display orange/brown shades :( The lot also included Moto Roader and TV Sports Football, both Japanese versions.
