July 2009 Finds

[ScourDX]

I got my self Blazblue collector from Amazon.

[Xexyz]

I haven't been seeking out many finds lately, instead they're finding me:



Mr.Do! (SNES, complete) - FREE
Dragon Warrior II (NES, boxed) - FREE
Dragon Warrior IV (NES, complete) - FREE
Dragon Ball: Advanced Adventure (GBA, new) - $18.99

A good friend of mine just purchased a Mr. Do! cabinet for $250. As a result, he didn't want his SNES copy anymore, so he gave it to me. This same friend also happened to get a box of NES games and the system for free from a co-worker. I only took the Dragon Warrior games initially because they were boxed, but I'll probably take the other games (AD&D, Shadowgate, Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle, etc. all loose) soon seeing as he doesn't want them. It's a shame the DW boxes are crushed, but the wear on them is pretty minimal. I'm currently in the process of reforming the Dragon Warrior II box. Aside from the lower left corner, IV is in pretty decent shape.

Dragon Ball: Advanced Adventure (GBA, new) - $18.99

Seems a bit much for a gba game unless it's super rare and don't know about it.

If this is the game I'm thinking of, it's one of the single BEST games the GBA ever got. It's a sidescroller / platformer that retells the first Dragon Ball stories. I didn't know it got a release in the US.

Dragonball Z: Burst Limit(360)
Haze(PS3)

Haze is my very first PS3 game purchased since I'm still waiting on my Soul Calibur 4 raincheck. Anyway, I hope it's a good game because it will be my first taste of PS3 gaming on my own system.

Don't get your hopes up

Pick up Uncharted.

It is the very one. It was developed by Dimps (former SNK employees) and is a single plane beat em up. They later recycled this engine for their Custom Beat Draglade titles, but they pail in comparison, probably because they tried to go the 1 on 1 vs. route while retaining some beat em up aspects.

$18.99 isn't too terrible for a new GBA game. I passed on it for so long that my only option for a boxed copy was at a local retailer. They rarely do price drops.

A Couple things...

I went out to a bunch of thrift stores today, and scored a couple things. I got a promotional Star Fox 64 VHS, in EXCELLENT condition, a complete (mint?) copy of RC Pro Am, and a couple miscellaneous PS1 games, including NFL game day in the old school Playstation box, and "bazookatone" in an old "ridged" box. How much are each of these worth? I also got some sega master system game, hang on/safari hunt. I also saw at a thrift store an ROB with a missing battery cover and no attachments, and a power glove without the sensors. I have been dying for a power glove for years, and was completely bummed out when I couldnt find the sensors. I didnt buy these two items. How much are they worth? Would it be easy and cheap to find just the sensors?

The other PS1 games i got were:

Pitball
Tunnel B1
ONE
Forsaken
Ball Breakers
Bio Freaks

Man where in New England did you find that ROB? Ive been looking for one for ever, just to have one would be sweet. Im going to NH next week maybe my finds will be better.

hehe i doubt you wanted it though, it wasnt in the best shape, and it was $40...The seller was ridiculous, I'm suprised I walked out in one piece. Her rebuttal to her high prices was "eBay, craigslist"

[gokugohandave]

well just the unit in a non grotesque condition would be sweet, but for 40 bucks, maybe if it had a guarantee that it worked and looked excellent.

[Game Freak]

yeah and the power glove was 22, I informed her of the missing pieces, and she claims that she doesnt recall extra pieces "When her son had it"

EDIT - Oh, by the way, I recommend you visit Raynham Flea in Raynham, MA. there are 3 or 4 game sellers regularly (two of them with HUGE stocks) and I've seen everything from boxed Turbografx 16 to Sega Saturn. Its open sundays from i believe 9 to 8. It might be a bit of a drive from there. Check out their website!
