Weekday finds - July 25-29

[felix]

Nobody put up a weekend finds thread, and no using in starting a new thread now that its sunday..

I finally got my Legend of Zelda. Its pretty minty, but not quite complete. I need to find a manual for it (if anybody has one that they would be willing to sell PM me).. Other than that it in great condition other than a minor chip on the game's paint.

I did create a Weekend finds thread, Felix. It just didn't get any love, and probably slipped down the page. Oh well. That's life. Lets move on.

£3.50 shipped

[walrusmonger]

Lots of good stuff. Although everything but the CV games were for a friend, it ran me $300+ for all of this stuff shipped.

interest in selling any of that?

[walrusmonger]

No chance, it took me a month or so of looking to find a Dracula X in this condition/CV IV. And the Batman/Contra/2 Earthbounds are for a friend.

I got luck with the Drac X, BIN was $175, I did a high offer of $80 and he accepted! The seller is awesome BTW, had a lot of great stuff and is very friendly.

While $80 might be high for the game, the condition is brand new except opened on one side ;) I love it!

I won these two yesterday. Seems like quite a bit for just some guides, but the two sell for quite a bit more.

Battle of Olympus, NES, complete: € 3.05
http://i2.ebayimg.com/03/i/04/90/f0/99_1_b.JPG

Wrath of the Black Manta, NES, complete: € 4.05
http://i10.ebayimg.com/02/i/04/8e/ae/17_1_b.JPG

Bram Stoker's Dracula, NES, complete: € 21.17
http://i14.ebayimg.com/03/i/04/88/e1/4a_1_b.JPG

All from the same seller. Bidding on Dracula rocketed from 2.09 to 21.17 within the last 2 minutes, or so. I just went with the flow. No idea, what it's really worth.

Normally German sellers state if a game is NTSC and imported, but this seller didn't. I think Dracula and Black Manta could be US games or at least UK PALs, as the text on the box is English. Couldn't really find any info on Dracula, so, if anyone could enlighten me pretty please?! :)

And yes, I know that there's red permanent marker on the Olympus packaging. Saw it too late. @_@

My postman delivered seven parcels this morning... in a big ol' sack. I feel like I am abusing Royal Mail, now...

Anyway... my mint and truly complete NES arrived, as did my excellent condition copy of Zelda II and Super Mega Key.

Forsaken, Lemmings 2, Risky Woods, Micro Machines 2 Turbo Tournament and Super Skidmarks complete the other bog-standard, mint games.

Shadow Of The Beast, Talmit's Adventure, Sonic 2 (sealed) and Revenge of Shinobi (Sega Classics - sealed) were from dojar. Cheers, buddy.

And, thanks to our very own bazariah, I now own a rental copy of Treasures of the Deep (PS1), promo copies of World Rally Championship (PS2) and Heart of Darkness (PS1). He also chucked in a copy of the Worms 4 Mayhem demo for PS2. Thanks!

French NES boxes are usualy in english. They are also PAL-B, as you use in Germany. If you wonder what region the games are you can see it on the cartridge, box and manual.
It is a number infron on the cartridge that looks like this:

NES-XX-NOE

You can see it on the last 3 letters. The PAL-B games usualy have a "B" on them too.

Here is a list of the country codes I can remember atm.

EEC = early european releases. Usualy german games have DAS code labeled at the back.
NOE = Germany (NOE = Nintendo of Europe)
SCN = Scandianvia (Bergsala)
UKV = United Kingdom
ESP = Spain
AUS = Australia
USA = USA
CAN = Canada
FRA = France
SWE = Sweden (Games with swedish text. Maniac Mansion, Shadow Gate and Deja Vu have SWE on them)

Not sure if ITA excist, but if so its Italy. Same with FAH. Some french games have FAH on the back, but FRA on the front. I think some german and netherland games also have FAH on them.

Hope it helped :)

I have been looking for this in the wild for awhile and finally gave up. Just over $11 shipped is good for me!

Now to see about Street Fighter Alpha 2 for PSX...

[jajaja]

Nice find on Gekido. Dont know how rare it is, but I used to play it before. A decent beatem' up :)

[ChronoTriggaFoo]

Oh yayous!

Even though the Buy It Now says $24.99, I bartered it down to $20 shipped. It was a game that she had relisted a few times (well at least once since I've been watching).

This is much better than sealed to me! I can play it and its still very collectable being complete :D
