First Gamecube purchase of the year, yesterday at a GameStop:

Starsky & Hutch (complete) - $1.99

(It's probably not that good, but I should be able to get some enjoyment out of it just from cruising around.)

[wingzrow]

for $3.00 i Picked up a sega dreamcast cd folder with 8 games in it. Mostly sports but I lucked out with marvel vs. capcom in good condition.

[thetoxicone]

Picked up a nintendo ds lite web browser for $5 at the local thrift last night.

[joshnickerson]

Picked this up off of evilBay this week. Since retro gaming has apparently died in my area, it's about the only place I can find some decent deals.

The box, manual and paperwork are in German, but the game itself is entirely English. It even came in a nifty plastic case! Not bad for twenty clams.

[jkernea]

Found a few deals at the flea market today:

Sega Pico - 101 Dalmatians (new) $2
Sega Pico - Ecco Jr. (new) $2
PS1 - Resident Evil Director's Cut (GH) $1
Tiger handheld - Frogger $1

[Kitsune Sniper]

First Gamecube purchase of the year, yesterday at a GameStop:

Starsky & Hutch (complete) - $1.99

(It's probably not that good, but I should be able to get some enjoyment out of it just from cruising around.)

I liked the PS2 version, it's stupidly campy but works just fine. Think of it as a dumbed-down Lucky and Wild.

I found nothing today other than something I regret not buying because of lack of funds: A Pioneer Laserdisc / DVD combo player. The LD side could read both sides of the disc without the user having to flip the disc. The thing was $15 but I really can't afford the luxury right now. T_T

[Sabz5150]

Took a walk around one of the big outdoor fleas, was the first decent day of the year so everyone was out there.

Found...

Sub Scan (2600)
Thunderground (2600)
Castlevania II: Simon's Quest (NES)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (NES)
Gumshoe (NES)

Two bucks a shot for the Atari games, the NES ones were three for five.

all new cept feel the magic

[Shadow Kisuragi]

Wandered around a community yard sale this morning on the way to the bank.

Came away with the following:
Windows 3.1 5 1/4" Installation Disks
IBM Dos 5.0 5 1/4" Installation Disks
Windows 95 for Dummies
DOS for Dummies Quickreference
Ferrari F50 Model Car
Bart Simpson Comic (Anthology of some sort from the comic series)
Holiday '97 Demo for Sony PSX

Passed on a few PS2 games for $5 each. Everything except the comic and demo were for my fiancee, since she's still feeling sick after having her wisdom teeth pulled.

No idea they had a sonic collection wow! Must BUY!

Except the ports or apparently horrendous. In fact, they aren't even ports... they are emulated and have issues.

I'd say avoid.

Edit: Voided

[cyberfluxor]

I was amazed to find a game I've been wanting for over a decade now:
Bubble & Squeak for the Genesis, CIB $2

I remember playing this game emulated back in the 90's but for whatever have never seen it at the stores in that time. Why? I don't know. There are only a couple copies of the game on eBay and yet it's supposed to be common? Anyhow, good times to finally snag this fun little game.

Also a buddy is selling off some arcade machines and has four 8-bit Atari computers and a monitor for me to pick-up. Grabbed the Commodore floppy drive from him, just need to find a few cables from another friend... Man is it a pain to gather older computer parts around this area.

My Saturday haul:

Dreamcast:
Jet Grind Radio (complete)
Roadsters (complete)

PlayStation:
Twisted Metal III manual and back insert (non-GH)

PS2:
Onimusha Warlords (non-GH disc in Hollywood Video case)
Jampack vol. 14 (complete)

PC:
Hoyle Solitaire
Warcraft II Battle.net Edition

The Dreamcast games were $3.99 each, and everything else was free.

I'm four DC games away from hitting 100. It was pretty nice to get Jet Grind Radio, Grandia II, Dead or Alive 2, and Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare in the same week (along with Super Magnetic Neo, Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future, and the aforementioned Roadsters).

[Atarileaf]
