Today was quite a nice day:
I was going to head over to a goodwill I was at earlier this week to see if they still had some common 5200 games I found for their half off saturday. Before I headed there though, I went to go waste some time at a nearby swap meet.
First thing I found from a dealer was:
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/weekend002.jpg
Atari 7800 - Water Ski (loose) - 4
Not bad...slightly rare.
Then as I neared the far back of the lot I found:
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/weekend001.jpg
Colecovision ADAM computer - 14
The guy wanted twenty for it, but I offered him the rest of my cash and he took it. The system is CIB and comes with all the foam dividers, every single part, absolutely everything. Included is:
The cassette player deck.
Keyboard w/ Coleco Game controller & docking bay.
Printer.
A ton of complete cassette games, a few loose ones. Mostly applications, but there were two games.
Unopened Ribbon Cartridge.
CIB Adamlink Modem.
Now let me tell you my fellow dpers....hauling this thing back to the damn car was one of THE MOST strenuous things I've done in quite some time. This thing was HEAVY. Basically bearhugged it and walked it to the parking lot, lol.
Afterwards, I went to that goodwill and they had no 5200 games left surprisingly. I figured they wouldn't sell at 4 bucks for common titles but they sure did. So, in the end, my "killing time" stop turned out to be rather killer.

Killed time until 10 am this morning by hitting a few rummage sales and Goodwills...at one rummage I got mint, complete copies of Gamecube Kirby's Air Ride and Xbox Ninja Gaiden for 5 bucks each. At a Goodwill, I found a loose N64 Paperboy for $2.99.
Then, once 10 rolled around I went to a few Gamestops after hearing yesterday that new N-Gage games were going for $6.99 each in the 50% off bin. Sure enough, found 25 different, complete N-Gage games at one store in the 50% off bin, along with a pair of headphones at the same price. Went to another, and they had pulled their selection off the floor, but the guy went and got the box, and I found 8 more I didn't yet have. He was surprised to see them ring up at $6.99 each, and then I asked if they would be 50% off as well. He said he didn't think so, but I showed him the reciept from the other store and he said what the heck.
So that makes 33 complete games plus headphones for just under $120.00 (Felt good to blow some of that cash I made at Sean's last week!). Now I just need to find the stupid phone! Here's the goods:

Bally's Fireball circa 1971:

My Dad bought this at a garage almost 20 years ago for around $200. He hardly ever played and pretty much it's been in storage. After his passing last year my stepmom said I could have it but I had to wait until we got into our new home because of limited space.
From what I've been able to learn I believe this was the very first pinball game to have the center spinner.
It's playable put needs all new rubber parts for the various bumpers. The cabinet is good shape and there is only some edges that show wear on them.

Well I haven't posted in a while, so this is the last couple weeks.
Yesterday at an auction
Comador :) computer, 1541 disk drive, Commodore Assembler, Starcross, manuals (plus a bunch of pots and pans) for $1. They guy just threw them in with the auction? When I saw it in the paper, I saw the Comador and figured it was Commodore, but was just listed as Comador Computer. Not bad.
First 39 issues of Nintendo Power for $.10 each :) Including the first issue in very good condition. These will be eBay (unless somebody here wants to make me a good offer). Don't collect Nintendo Power magazines. Never liked the mag.
Magnavox Odyssey Shooting Gallery Gun (only) for $1. Was listed on eBay all misspelled and for the Odyssey 2000 which was a pong unit. Need the games still, but finally got an Odyssey in the box which was cool.
Otherwise, not much else to speak of.

picked up a complete genesis mutant league football (my cards are "docken" and "joe magician") and loose NES big nose freaks out and a supervision 110 in 1 cart at the swap meet today for $8 total. sadly, i didn't check the big nose before i bought it, and didn't see that the contact board had a small crack in it, AND the 110 in 1 doesn't want to work after many cleanings. MLF however is fine and dandy.

i picked up a cheap omega fighter cabinet in southern mass sunday. needs cosmetic attention but it works. good monitor and it's vertical, so it'll be a good partner for my horizontal jamma cabinet.
the game itself is a decent enough 2d space shooter. 2 player simultaneous is always a plus.
