World Driver Championship (N64) - mint condition, $9.95AU. Bought it to replace my icky ex-rental copy.
Thunder Force IV (Mega Drive) - complete, $19.95AU. A bit pricey, but it's awesome enough to be justified.

Today was quite the score. I had bought a used DS to replace the top screen of my recently received Mario Kart LE (that my fiance had gotten me online) due to a stuck pixel that was in the middle of the screen (sucked). Made my repair, but could only return the DS for store credit. Not as good as I had hoped, but what I got with the resulting credit more than made up for it:
Hori Onimusha Katana - display, but complete - $30 (!)
DragonQuest VIII - PS2 NEW - $30 (!)
Hori Slime Controller - PS2 NEW - $30
Needless to say, I am very, very happy. A fixed DS AND a bunch of stuff I have wanted for a decent price. :D

ourchased the 20th anniversary Micro and used the $10 coupon that came with it on the DK King of Swing... but apparently they took the coupon off twice, once on the system, once on the game. i didn't even notice until i was out of the store. no real loss for me :) also picked up the thunderforce and shockwave assault at the same gamestop.
snood 2 came from best buy, and clue and cliffhanger came from a local thrift.

NFL Quarterback Club 2000 - .99
Major League Baseball Featuring Ken Griffey Jr. - $2.99

Are there threads like this in the Modern Gaming forum? I don't see any...and people still are listing games they get for the new systems here...so I guess I'll just list what I got here.
Metroid Prime Pinball for the Nintendo DS
The Pac-Man Plug & Play TV Games joystick (also featuring Bosconian, Galaxian, Dig Dug and Rally-X). This is only my 2nd of these joystick "systems"...the other being Ms. Pac-Man though I like to call it The Mappy Joystick since what I mainly play on it.

just got back from Toys R Us with a brief stop by Funcoland (had to pick up some gifts there for a friend). Everything was $10 except for FD18, which I gladly paid $25 for since I'd been looking for it forever. I was a little sad when Psychonauts was out of stock at TRU, as I was really looking forward to getting some PS2 copies of it for friends.

Not really a find so much, but I exchanged presents with a friend of mine today. I finally got a Dreamcast along with 10 games. Cost: my gift of about 30 of my NES doubles.

Devil May Cry 3 - 14.99
Toys 'R' Us
Final Fantasy Dawn of Souls: I & II - 9.98
Shin Megami Tensei Digital Devil Saga Deluxe Box Set - 9.98
Killer7 was a good snag, Devil May Cry was so-so. I had been wanting Dawn of Souls for a while and it finally hit the right price. Oh, and Digital Devil Saga just hit me out of left field -- as soon as I saw it I snatched it up.

From Noble Collectibles:
Colecovision w/all hookups, 2 Super Action controllers, 1 Spectravision controller and 13 carts - $60.
I already have a Coleco and Super Action Controllers. The reason I bought this system was for the cart titles I didn't have, which include:
Illusions
Alphabet Zoo
Fisher-Price Linking Logic
Frontline
Centipede
...It was the 3 R5's in this stack that made it a worthwhile purchase. The rest of the carts, controllers and system will probably wind up on Ebay soon. Nice way to end the year. 8-)

I've been lurking on this site for a couple of months now. It's sad, but it took the Toys 'R Us sale to get me to finally register and post because I'm overjoyed with my haul, and I owe it all to this community.
I picked up the following:
Alien Hominid (PlayStation2)
Bomberman - Classic NES Series (Game Boy Advance)
Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles (GameCube)
Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls
Metal Slug 4 & 5 (GameCube)
Pikmin 2 (GameCube)
Resident Evil 4 (GameCube)
Samurai Western (PlayStation2)
Tenchu: Fatal Shadows (PlayStation2)
For about $100.00, this is a ridiculously good deal. I'm planning on taking a small road trip to other Toys 'R Us stores, as I really just wanted Zelda: Four Swords Adventures for dirt cheap... Wish me luck.

Today I was able to score:
Xbox 360 Premium
Wireless Adapter
Play & Chrage Kit
Perfect Dark Zero Limited Edition
PDZ is pretty kick ass. Only thing I wish was better is the backwards compatibility. Some games lag up too much and a LOT of the ones I own, don't play. Maybe I will still have to buy another xbox. I don't think Microsoft is gonna put forth a great effort in making more games compatibile and/or play better.

Yaa-hoo!
Bira Bira provides.
I picked up a 3DO FZ-1 w/ two controllers for $30 at Bookman's!
This is especially wonderful because it was my last-ditch effort to find something cool before Xmas, in my budget range. Now I have the holiday to enjoy the 20 or so 3D0 games I've picked up over the last few months that have just been waiting for that console.
So....for good or for ill, don't bug me this weekend because I'll be playing AD&D: Slayer, Starblade, Gex, Corpse Killer, Monster Manor, Psychic Detective, Guardian War, Incredible Machine, Hell, Blade Force, Shock Wave, and quite a few others....most of them for the very first time.
I love that new console feeling......

12-23-2005, 09:21 PM
