    Default April 2009 Finds

    Well, no thread has been made for this yet, so I'll make one.

    At EZ Pawn:
    Suikoden IV (game + box)
    Silent Hill 2 (PS2, Game + box)
    Romancing Saga (Game + box)
    $5 each.

    Drakengard (disc only) - $2

    At Goodwill:

    Space Invaders (SNES, SEALED) - $1.99
    The weird this is that they had 11 more copies of this sealed for the same price. If anyone wants me to pick them up one for cost + shipping let me know.

    G.I. Joe (cart only) - $5

    Check out the new N64 Rumble Pak. See how it feels to feel what you see.

    Default Reading Is Fundamental



    Guinness World Records 2009: Gamers Edition
    Halo: The Cole Protocol
    Starcraft(N64)

    The books I got at Borders because none of the Barnes and Nobles around here had any of the newest Halo novel. And the Starcraft game was found in a video game store I frequent. They've had them before but never so reasonably priced so I snatced it up.

    I know it was on speedway, but am trying to think of what the other cross street was. I think it's speedway and rosemont.

    I was going stir crazy in my home (having no job sucks!), so I decided to go to some of the thrifts in town.

    My first stop was Value Village. I browsed through their games/software section, and hanging on one of the hooks was a copy of Lunar: The Silver Star (Sega CD). What was amazing about this find was A) the disc was actually still in the case, and B) even though it was out in plain sight, nobody had bought it yet! Oh, and best of all, it only cost me $2.99 (plus tax)! I already have a copy of Lunar: TSS, but I figured this second one would be good as trade bait, especially since I don't really have much money for games right now. The games complete, but it's pretty beat up. I don't have a way to test it, because my Sega CD is toast. However, my Macbook can read the disc, and the audio tracks on seem to work too. I might try ripping the disc and then test it using Kega Fusion.

    I went to a couple of other thrifts, but none of them had anything good.

    Also, I picked up a couple of other things late last week that I forgot to post:

    Pac-man Plush for 50 cents

    Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse (Game Gear) for 5 bucks.

    This technically should go in last month finds, and it's not technically not a gaming related one.. Although I use it for a lot of gaming!



    A nice Mitsubishi 2,000 lumes projector!
    200$ from the bay~

    The apollo screen with stand 7.17$ from a local thrift!

    That's the largest I've ever seen Loadstar~
