    Daytona USA: Championship Circuit Edition (Saturn) - perfect condition, $13 AUS

    THIS is the REAL Daytona - not that rubbish they originally released. You could almost consider this an apology from Sega for doing such a poor job with the original!

    Well, it's cold, rainy, and dreary around here so yard sales are scarce and no fleas near me. However one yard sale came up with...

    Sealed, new in box XEXYL for the NES for a whole quarter.

    *shrugs* I have no clue what this is but it's sealed new and it cost a quarter. Can't argue that at all. Anyone know if it's good?

    -AG
    -AB+

    Holy crap. It's been a while.

    ADDENDUM!!! I also stumbled across the following today:

    Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 - for $20 Cdn!

    AAAAAAAAAAANNNND

    Intelligent Qube - for $20 Cdn!!!!!!

    Both are up for grabs, but almost everything below is already spoken for

    Hit a yard sale at random today! Got -

    2 X Atari 5200, one boxed with docs (warranty card, owners manual 5200 poster ad, different owner's manual, installing the TV/game switchbox manual, and manual style ad)! Even had the foam!! One cord is rewired, the other is kinda messed up, but hey, I got em! Also came with the following games:

    Kangaroo
    Missile Command
    Centipede x 2
    Super Breakout x 2
    Countermeasure
    Star Raiders
    Galaxian
    Pole Position
    Pacman 5200 manual
    Star Wars Empire Strikes back 2600 manual
    Karateka (7800 version)
    Galaga (7800 version)
    Yar's Revenge (2600, boxed complete w/comic)
    Atari game catalog (minty, covers 45 games)

    and the following hardware:

    5 x 5200 controllers (the ones with teh joystick and number pad, like a remote control)

    2 x mint Atari 5200 RFs

    1 Wico Command Control 5200 joystick

    1 Wico Command Control keypad (weird thing, 3 blue buttons and a number pad, kinda like an old bank keypad)

    1 official Atari RF male to female convertor setup (the little tubular thing that has the two hooks on it for TVs with no RF in but just the screws)

    2 5200 power supplies!

    All in all, a good deal I thought, especially for THREE DOLLARS!!!! All is of course up for trade too, since I don't actually COLLECT Atari....

    No sales around here, so I resorted to ebay for E3 promo items.

    Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete (with EVERYTHING. Making of disc, soundtrack, etc.) used, for the PS, at Gamestop: $29.99 (Not a great deal, but it's something I've been looking for for ages.)

    NES:
    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II
    Super C
    Castlevania: Simon's Quest
    The Legend of Zelda

    All $2 each. Of course, now my NES refuses to work. Anybody got a spare 72-pin connector?

    A guy at the flea market I went to had a top-loading NES for $100. Was I a fool to pass it up?
