I was at the thrifts today, and I found the following:

Sea Hawk for Atari 2600 SEALED - $5
Water Ski for Atari 7800 SEALED - $5

How rare are these titles?

Sea Hawk - one of those games that's considered rare but always seems to turn up sealed. Definitely a good find for $5, unless you want to play it. It's one of the Worst. Games. Ever.

Water Skiing - one of the tougher 7800 titles. Another good find, more so than Sea Hawk. Actually a decent game too. :)

Congrats!

Not really a "find" but I finally got a Logitech MX-700 to replace the Marble FX trackball I've been using for gaming sense 98 or so.. Going to be hard to learn how to play FPS's with a mouse after all these years.. Had to do it as using a trackball to FPS is taxing. Best Buy had em for 79.99-$20 MIR but when I took it to the register we found that the sale had ended on the 15th.. The manager just sold it to me for $59.99 no rebate! That is cheaper by $10 then what I could find online.

I THINK I did damned good today, but I'm not 100% sure. Found these at the local store (all prices in US dollars) :

Atari 2600:
Miner 2049er Volume II (cart only) - $.99

NES:
Peter Pan and the Pirates (cart only) - $.99
River Citry Ransom (cart only) - $5.00

Genesis:
El Viento (cart and manual) - $5.00
Gunstar Heroes (cart and manual) - $5.00
Shadowrun (cart and manual) - $5.00

PC:
Die Hard: Nakatomi Plaza (Cd in case w/key only) - $5.00

River City Ransom, Gunstar Heroes (sans manual), Beyond Oasis, and Shadowrun (sans manual) are all spares if anyone wants to trade for em, and Miner 2049er Volume II and Peter Pan are up for trade as well! :)

Spent more than I like to on games this past week, but got some real gems:

PSX Arc the Lad Collection (new) $49.99

2600 Pengo $4.99

2600 Manuals for Cosmic Swarm, Crash Dive, Frogger II, All 3 Mythicon games (tiny little books!), Worm War I, and a few others...worked out to about $1.50 each.

NES QIX Complete $9.99

9 boxed complete 2600 games (all commons, but condition upgrades from my previous copies) $1.00 each

Genesis Crueball complete $3.99
Genesis Sorcerer's Kingdom complete $3.99
Genesis Toe Jam & Earl Complete $3.99 (5 language version, with Memo Pad style manual...is this one as sought after as the regular english only version?)

NES GI Joe $3.99
NES Death Race $3.99

Boxes and Manuals for:
NES Xenophobe
NES Infiltrate
NES Twin Cobra (all free!)

Channel F Carts # 2,3,8,9,11 (tradebait) & #6, 13, 21, 23 (keepers) $31.00 in an Ebay auction listed as "Fairchild Games". The box for #23 "Galactic Space Wars" is just a plain white box (same size as the others) with another end label, identical to the one on the cart, affixed to the end flap....sorta cool, in a cheapo end-of-the-line kinda way.

AND one off-topic find: The complete Monty Python DVD Collection Boxed set (14 DVDs) $99.00. Been watching episodes 3 at a time and laughing my ass off!
