Nice!
Bought the following PAL games for dreamcast (yet again!):
-Kao Kangaroo
-Metropolis Street Racer
-Sword of the Berserk
-Phantasy Star Online
For PSO, it did not include the Sonic 2 demo, which i'm pretty annoyed about.
I'd also like to know if its worth getting Fear Effect PAL for PS1. Anyone any opinions?

Omg i never knew PSO came with a Sonic 2 Demo! LOL Just checked mine now to see it sitting there in Minty condition :)
Good find on Kao Kangaroo, hard to find in my opinion, same for Sword Of The Berserk!
Fear Effect is quite good IMO too, possibly worth it if its nice and cheap!

During my lunch break I stopped by the Salvation Army and spotted some CD cases that were orange and black: TG-16 games. I NEVER see these in the wild. So here's what I snagged (all complete except two):
Keith Courage
China Warrior
Military Madness
Veigues Tactical Gladiator
Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective (doesn't have the extras like the news papers and such)
World Baseball: Case, instructions but a TG-CD system card inside.
All for $6.
Now I gotta find a TG-16....

This is gonna be a long one...haven't had much time to post so I'm gonna throw in this, and last week's scores...
I'll start out with today:
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/somuch001.jpg
Goodwill
PC - Quest for Glory III (complete) - 2.50
Sweeeet! Gotta love old adventure games.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/somuch002.jpg
Bookman's
NES - 10 Yard Fight (complete) - 3
NES - Monster Party (complete) - 3
NES - Target Renegade (complete) - 3
NES - Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego (complete) - 10
Last week was pretty damn swell. A trip to a different Bookman's earlier in the week unearthed an exciting find for me:
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/somuch004.jpg
PC - Full Throttle (complete) - 6
PC - The Dig (complete) - 6
PC - X-com: Apocolypse (complete) - 6
All awesome pc titles!
Then at Game Zone, they got in quite a slew of stuff so I did some work on 5200 and Saturn:
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/somuch003.jpg
5200 - Berzerk (complete) - 5
5200 - Countermeasure (complete) - 5
5200 - Dreadnaught Factor (box only) - .50
5200 - Galaxian (complete) - 3
5200 - Pole Position (complete) - 2
Tim was nice enough to sell me the Dreadnaught box he had which I needed.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/somuch005.jpg
Saturn - Battle Arena Toshiden URA (complete) - 8
Saturn - Hyper 3-D Pinball (complete) - 5
Saturn - NHL 97 (complete) - .99
Saturn - PGA Tour 97 (complete) - .99
I also picked up Blazing Dragons for 4 bucks but I didn't remember previously buying it, as it was a dupe. There was one saturn game that I was on a pending list for, and luckily for me, the guy never came and picked it up. So when I went back to return blazing I scored:
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/somuch006.jpg
Saturn - Dragon Force (missing manual) - 40
The game had a tiny scratch on the edge and was missing the manual so it was discounted 20% to 40 bucks. They tested it for a while and said it seemed to play just fine so I took the chance. I've had a loose manual for the game for months so I didn't mind that it was missing it at all. Saved me about 50 bucks from going through e-bay ;D.
Ohhhh yeah...
and:
Genesis - Dynamite Headdy (complete) - 6
PS2 Guncon - 8

It was just another reason why PSO was an essential purpose. I was so excited about getting it, me and a friend even splashed out on keyboards, and then there were the phone bills... Anyway, the Sonic 2 demo was fun, introduced grinding, not as impressive as the 1st Sonic Adventure level. I guess thats why I've never played the 2nd game despite absolutely loving the 1st

Finally picked up an item that's been eluding me for years. Back in the early 90's when I was just starting up my collection, I passed up a boxed 5200 at a rummage sale because the guy wanted $25 for it and wouldn't haggle at all. Been regretting that call for years, as I haven't seen one in the wild since. That changed today...I walked into a Goodwill at lunchtime, and this beauty was sitting on the floor in front of the display case:

A relatively minor bit of shelfwear on the outside, but a mint and complete 4-port 5200 on the inside. Also had 3 complete games (Pacman, Galaxian, & Kangaroo). It was overpriced like before, but I was able to get it for $19.99 with a discount coupon, and I didn't want to wait another 15 years for a chance at another one.

Finally found a copy new and sealed. Had a good time trying to find it, since everyone I spoke with thought I was crazy and was under the impression it was on PC only

I received a couple of GameCube games this past week that I won via eBay auctions...a used copy of Pac-Man Fever (but complete) for $2.99 and a new copy of Animal Crossing. I don't recall what I paid for that. That one's a Player's Choice version, but who cares?
