February 2006 finds

[The_Kodiak65]

I got another tattoo!!!
$100, color, when i take a pic, ill post it!

Cool stuff. Being in Erie, did you happen to get it at Buddha's by any chance? Used to be one of my buddy's favorite places when we made it up that way.

And to stay on topic.. uh, NBA Hoopz for Dreamcast. $10 wasn't a great price, but kind of sort of rare, or so I hear. Plus, it's mildly fun to boot. I hadn't planned on that.

accually, thats where i got it!
great place, im probaly going there again when my friends come up to visit

I got my signed copy of COD 2 today from Gamespot.

I didn't know it would be signed.

So, did you win that in a contest or something?

Yeah, they had a COD 2 tournament two weeks ago and during the broadcast they asked trivia questions. The question was, Where is this map located? The answer was Caen, France.

Chris

And I already got blazing star on the way :D

Probably a lot less painful than paying $650 for the home cart like I did a couple weeks ago. Ouch! @_@ LOL

Enjoy that Phantom.

[AFGiant]

some stuff as of late:

Legend of Dragoon - PSX (greatest hits) - complete - free (from a friend)
Super Mario 64 DS - CIB - $29.99
Ms. Pac-Man - genesis - $0.99 (it was the only game left at a thrift, but it was in a Sonic 3 box. The person who bought the rest of the games prolly never checked :) )

Some free stuff from an EBGames that my bro picked up (I have trained him well LOL )

Onimusha Dawn Of Dreams art cell
PSP Syphon Filter Dark Mirror demo
PSP Pursuit Force demo
Xbox Full Spectrum Warrior: Ten Hammers demo

also, he got this little X360 promo thing that was like a little wheel with a string that snapped back when you pulled it out. He was spinning it and it hit a chair and it broke :(
I was kinda sad, but hey, it was only a little cheap promo item I guess.

[josekortez]

This is all stuff I picked up within the last week:

Target

From what I can tell, the prices for the plug & play system are the same across all Wal-Marts. The Ms. Pac-Man wireless one is also $5, but I couldn't find it at either of the Wal-Marts I checked...

Son testing it out..
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v21/Chris1/Play1.jpg


A game vendor I deal with often just didn't feel like putting out his games today..(IMO He was being a D...)
..I was looking to buy several SNES games from him but he just was being lazy so he lost that sale.
By the time he got 70% of his stuff out it started to snow...



Flea Market was dead..I guess it's just to cold for the vendors..
I go with enough clothes on that the cold doesn't bother me at all.I was at the Flea market for several hours and didn't even get bothered by the cold.
My Dad however was freezing his butt off.. x_x

A vendor I know tells me of a Pinball machine being sold at the end of the isles..I run to see this and I find nothing.
Asking the vendor of the spot that I was sent to he says it was a vintage slot machine/not a pinball machine...and it was sold to a friend"vendor" of mine..
I go see him and he's packed to leave..He never set-up due to the cold and just bought some stuff .
He had the huge Slot machine in his van..
So I took a look at it as another guy wanted to see it too..
This slot machine stood about 5 foot tall,had a big arm on one side and from looking at the front I could not see the rollers..It looked like one big sheet of paper behind a Glass.
The machine is not working and locked with the keys missing..
IMO he got it for $50.00.....I would of bought it for that price if I would of seen it first..
Now that he had it he offered to sell it to me for $200.00.....
I don't have any room for it and who knows what it needs/it would have to go over to my dads..
.....I told him if he doesn't do anything with it to let me know....I do think he'll even bother with it and wind up wanting to sell it to me later for $100.00.. :/

[djbeatmongrel]

i got lucky and bought marvel vs capcom 2 for ps2 from a costumer for $22 :^D

[jcheatle]

It wasn't my very best find ever, but it was pretty darn close today.

Went to the flea market, picked up the following NES games, complete and in VERY nice shape for $40:

Ivan Stewart's Super Off Road
Last Starfighter
Snake's Revenge
Iron Tank
Cabal
Astyanax
Bomberman

and the 3 that made it worth it...

Castlevania 2
Super C
Contra

3 of my all-time favorites which I had cart only. The only down aspect is that some guy / gal named "Conrad" owned these and felt the need to write his / her name on the front of each box. Oh well.

PS2 - Shadow of the Colossus (new) £22.99

[Kitsune Sniper]

Ok, Im jealous! :(
Me wants the Action 52!! :(

dan

It's not Action 52. Yes, it uses the same outside case... but the board is different - it has fewer roms.

Also, the roms say "CHEETAHMEN II".

And technically the game cost me $2.50 (it was $10 with three other games - Tetris 1, 2 and Yoshi).

*grins*

Phantasy Star Online - Free (Gift)
Power Stone DVD - £4
Wipeout 3 - £2
Wipeout Pure - £10
Wavebird - £19.99

Some hot stuff!
Is the Wavebird new?
I got mine for £15 used at my local shop. They usually have the best prices for used games and stuff. The cheapest current generation game I've seen in there was XIII on the Xbox for £1.50. I think they have about five stores in the chain all in Berkshire. I get most of my current gen games from there.

They're starting to do more old stuff. They used to just have a few PS1/Dreamcast/N64 games but last time I went in they had a Megadrive.

My gaming event of the day was a new shelf in my room. It looks nice and organised now.

[DarkStraw]

i called every other kmart in georgia after i found those, but noone had any, the ones in my kmart were on the top shelf and they were covered up by a 59.99 sign, but the lady said that was the christmas sale price, i asked if that ment the price went back to 150, she said she dident know how much they were but if i got one down she could ring it up.
she rang it up and gave us a kind of funny look, i asked her how much it was and she pointed to the price screen, lol 9.99!!! of course we said we would take them all :) heck i was planning on going home and looking them up, making sure they were worth at least a hundred and going back and paying 60 each. she said they also had a bunch of screens that got marked down to 12.00 each, but the employee's bought them up and put them in their cars :0
anyway i called just about every kmart 200 miles from me, i think they just dident sell because they dident have a 10.00 price on them, and they were kind of hard to see.

[DKTheArcadeRat]

So you were just buying to sell at profit?

(good job)

[Mattiekrome]

Game Boy Color - Perfect Dark (box and game, no manual)

[-hellvin-]

About a week ago, I was on "myspace" looking at the game collecting group and this girl from bookmans in flagstaff posted they got in a ton of stuff at their store, mostly never opened NES games. Apparently most of them sold, but I went there today to check it out and here's everything I picked up!

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/fsnes001.jpg

Genesis - Sonic the Hedgehog (cart variant, loose) - 1
Genesis - Virtua Fighter 2 (complete) - 5
Game Gear - Psychic World (complete) - 5
Game Gear - Revenge of Drancon (complete) - 5

Only found one genny game I needed...I was happy with the two nice condition game gear games. Especially Revenge, since it's Wonderboy on SMS, which is basically a clone of Adventure Island.

Then, I asked to look at all the freaking NES games they had in the case and picked up a horde of them. They were all in great condition and priced pretty well. I didn't have enough for the extras I wanted, so I'm going to see if I can have them transfered to my store in Phoenix. The ones I remember for sure were Kid Kool, and Challange of the Dragon. COTD was 20 bucks, but complete and mint, so I'm probably gonna splurge on that one. Here's the list. All are complete or factory sealed.

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/fsnes002.jpg

A Boy & His Blob - 6
Adventures of Dino Riki - 4
Castle of Deceit - 9
Castle of Dragon - 6
Conquest of Crystal Palace - 6
Demon Sword - 4
Ducktales - 6
Exodus: Journey to the Promised Land - 8
Faria - 8
Ghoul School - 6
Indiana Jones & the Last Crusade (Taito version) - 5
Mutant Virus - 6
Mystery Quest - 4
Whomp Em - 6

All of the below games are factory sealed, except for Deathbots which I'm not sure about. It's unlicensed, and I don't know what those look like sealed, so I'm unsure there.

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/fsnes003.jpg

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/hellvin/fsnes004.jpg

8 Eyes - 4
Deathbots ? - 6
Dr Chaos - 4
Isolated Warrior - 5
Stanley: Search for Dr Livingston - 6
Tombs & Treasure - 6
Wizardry II - 12

Good times. Was one hell of a fun trip!

[ubersaurus]

INTV
Snafu-complete-2 bucks
Ice Trek-complete-2 bucks

Colecovision?
Montezuma's Revenge-7 bucks loose

SMS
Power Strike-4 bucks loose

[jcheatle]

Nice score, Hellvin. I always wonder when lots of games such as this show up. Namely, where do they come from? Were they all seriously shoved into the back room for 12 years? It just makes me wonder sometimes...

And do I spy a Wesley Willis reference below your name?


Oh yes, after Darkstraw's great find, I too trekked out to the local Kmarts and found nothing. I recall seeing 2-3 there over Christmas though, so the empty space in the case today made sense. :( Oh well.

[SegaAges]

I hit up blockbuster and goodwill today and got some awesome scores:

Burnout: Revenge (complete) [ps2] - 24.99
Airforce Delta Strike (complete) [ps2] - 9.99

And for my super find (these are from goodwill):
All of these are loose and for Sega CD:
Eternal Champions

found this weird (pirate?) labeled champions world class soccer at the flea today. for some reason, i can't find my SNES right now to test it out...

[-hellvin-]

And do I spy a Wesley Willis reference below your name?

Lol. Yes it is. Hilarious stuff. I wanted to put the bit in about breaking birdmans window and taking off in his bronco like OJ Simpson, but alas the space.

"Rock over London, Rock over Chicago....Heinz, is America's favorite ketchup!"

Ahahahaha

Thanks for the finds comments...it's really weird, I agree. What makes me wonder all the more is who would trade those in for 2-6 bucks max each when they're factory sealed? I'm sure the Wizardry could near 100 on ebay.

2 packs of Donkey Kong E-Reader cards- $4.29 at Kmart.

They didn't have any PS1 combos.

[snes_collector]

GoodWill:

Frogger-GB
World Circuit Series-GB
Super Mario Bros. Deluxe-GBC

All cart only and were 2$ each. It's always good to find GB games in the wild, especially cheap like these :-P

I was at Wal-mart last night and I picked up a sealed copy of.. Super Mario Bros Classic NES Series for the GBA. Only 10.88... oh heck yeah it's going on ebay.

It was the only copy they had, or I would of bought as many as I could find. I thought they stopped making this game, unless its just stuff they had in the back...

[robotriot]

Games I found today:

PS2 - Shadow of the Colossus
GBA - Gunstar Future Heroes

[briskbc]

the mini psone combo's? Kmart.... 10 bucks each :)
4 sealed, 3 opened but in new condition but unused.?
Well, thanks for pointing that out. Went to my local K-Fart and got the only one they had. And it was burried behind a stack of PSP's and PSTwos. The guy was very, very surprized to see it ring up at only $9.99. I wish they had two so I could sell one (they get a nice amount on eBay, I just found out) but this is something that I'm going to have to keep for myself. You'll get a couple hundred $ out of you selling those, so nice score.

Crazy Machines- The Wacky Contraptions Game(PC)-FREE

Yep, my father bought me this game off of Amazon for no real reason. It's an Incredible Machine-style game, and I really like The Incredible Machine, so I'm sure I'm going to like this as well.

Today I found a couple of PC games, "Max Payne II" and "Hitman: Codename 47" at EB for $3.83 total after tax. Probably all they're worth, but whatever. I've never been one to pass up dirt cheap games. LOL

tynstar: how the hell did you get some of those rare 2600 games?

[BrokenFlight]

GBA:
Bomberman £6.99
Mario Bros £7.99

However, when I got home I had a look at them. There was no game in Bomberman and an Excitebike cartridge in Mario. I took them back and got Bomberman but they couldn't find Mario. They refunded the £7.99 and I got Mario Paint with the mouse and pad for £2.99

On the first run I also got:
NES Zapper 99p

Megadrive:
Another World 99p
Psycho Pinball 99p
Wiz 'n' Liz 99p

2 copies of Road Avenger for the Mega CD: 50p each. I bought one for the game and one for a good condition case to replace the broken one of another game.

Yesterday I traded in a DVD and got Zelda: The Minish Cap for GBA for £4.
