    Ninja Turtles: Arcade Game for the NES & Black Belt for the SMS for $2.70 @ a thrift. These are possibly the most significant finds in the August thread so far! I have been wanting Turtles for a while now, so that um, pretty cool I guess.

    Anyway over the last couple of days I came across...



    Lufia - SNES, Complete (almost, its missing the map) but only $52 AUD so cannot really complain much.



    Secret of Mana, SNES, Complete (including map) slightly more expensive than Lufa at $71 AUD, but still a pretty good buy.



    Got that lot for $85 AUD.

    I only bought it for Super Mario Bros 3 GBA game, as it is quite difficult to find a non-bootleg copy. However when the seller sent it, he sent it unprotected in a plain post satchel, so the GBA unit was all battered, and the GBA games were a little beaten around the corners

    Discworld - PS1, Complete $26 AUD

    Twisted Metal World Tour - PS1, Complete $6

    Final Fantasy IV Advance - GBA, Complete $13

    Command & Conquer - PS1, Complete (non plat) $6

    $10 for Bubble Bobble 2? Is that good? Hell yes it is good. Last I saw they had jumped the $100 mark, and it's quite possibly my favorite NES game to boot. It takes everything great about the original and improves on it (except for the multiplayer for some reason). Your Duck Tales 2 and Rescue Rangers 2 finds are great as well, those are hard to come by. I've owned approximately 800 NES carts and have never come across a Rescue Rangers 2. Great find man.

    Eh, the chick that plays Sabrina is kinda hot. Anyway, I'm sure you can resell those for more, no worries dood. Now if you picked up Etna and the Prinny Poon Porn or something like that, then yeah, I might be a little disturbed.

    To be honest, as soon as I brought the glasses home I put them in a special box because mine are mint. I havent even tried using them. All I know is the card slides into the system but I think you have to have a certain game in to actually use the glasses.

    Have fun with all of that. I know I would.

    I just checked the rarity guide and its rated a 6 - value of $50 as long as it has the adapter.

    At Goodwill yesterday I found complete copies of
    Gaiares (Genesis) $3.99
    6-Pak (Genesis) $2.99

    I was happy
    If they made a movie out of your top five worst sins, what would it be rated?
