    I have no idea. I don't watch TV, and only vaguely remember that show's title because I saw a DVD set for sale once. I picked up the CD because of the label, they've released some awesome compilations.

    Default Q

    Too lazy to post pics so far but I got:

    PS1 Q*Bert CIB $1.99
    PS2 Namco Museum 50th Anniversary $3.99 both from Goodwill

    I went to a Salvation Army that I don't frequent much anymore and saw a game gear game case in a stack of games but couldn't tell what it was. I hesitated to ask the employee to see it but decided to afterall, turns out it was Crystball for the Supervision in a Game Gear case.

    Not bad for $2.04 and the very first time I've found Supervision stuff in the wild.
    If they made a movie out of your top five worst sins, what would it be rated?

    Many of these CDs are really, really old. I wouldn't be surprised if they came from an estate sale and the former owner never removed the sticker.

    Also, The War Years is one CD out of a four disc set. Dammit. >_<

    Has been my birthday, so amongst other things, gaming wise I got:

    Red Steel 2 (Wii)
    Luminous Arc 2 (DS)

    Rather pleased about LA2 as it came with the outer cardboard packaging and the limited edition bonus soundtrack CD. Should look very nice on my shelf!

    LaserActive Private Music Sampler-$2.99 at a Salvation Army. Here's the track list. Unfortunately, the inserts are very water damaged; the front insert is stuck together.

    PS1 Pandemonium!, unopened-$3.99 from a Salvation Army 5 minutes away from the other one.

    If the sticker on the rear is still there (it'd gone over the SKU on the back of the case), it'll say when the sticker was printed.

    Splatterhouse (TG-16, hucard in case with manual)
    Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Hidden Treasure (Korean Mega Drive, cart + case only)

    Total for all of that was $23. I'm probably keeping SOR2. Splatterhouse is going to eBay, the HD enclosures were going there too but they don't sell there... I'll probably unload them at GameTZ.

    Tiny Toons... I already have the US version. I hope the cart will work with that import adapter I have around.
    You may not need the import adapter. If you decide that you want to get rid of your Korean Tiny Toons, give me a yell.

    Still buying too many games again, good thing I sold a few things on eBay!

    I started adding to my wishlist on Backloggery when I remembered that I had seen one game I needed at a local gamestop, so I went to pick it up. While in line I saw they had the last copy of another game I forgot I wanted, so I nabbed that too. They were $20 each.

    Suikoden Tierkreis (DS)
    Mana Khemia 2 (PS2)

    My mother in law bought a computer and printer at Best Buy the other week. And fortunately shortly after she bought it I got a coupon for Reward Zone Silver members that any purchase of $500 got you a $50 gift card. Her and I were able to go back with her receipt and I got the card I offered to split it with her, but she said it was a gift for me helping get her computer and printer set up. Works for me! Plus I got points because we used my membership card too. Anyways, used the card to pick up...

    Last Rebellion (PS3)
    Dragon Quest VI (DS) (Ordered it online, will pick it up Tuesday)

    I had picked up 2 games for a friend last month, and we agreed that he would pay me back with a few extra bucks, but using Amazon credit. So I used that credit to order...

    999 (DS)
    Muramasa: The Demon Blade (Wii)

    I'm so used to getting games on clearance that it was hard to pay $35 for 999, but I'm glad to finally own it, and I'm ready to play it when it arrives.

    Lastly, I couldn't help but pick up two cheap imports I was looking at for awhile. They're my first two loose super famicom games, I wanted them complete but even if I had the box and manual, I couldn't read it anyways...

    Mario no Super Picross
    Mario & Wario

    Jesus, I should get a blog or something... I type way too much.

    Okay, I apologize for the flood of pics but this is a really EPIC find.

    Let me start by saying, I woke up this morning and read the estate sales. There was one a ways out of town advertising "vintage boxed electronic games" and "action figures". I about had a heart attack when I came into the room in the sale as it was STUFFED with boxed video game systems and 90s action figures . The boxed systems I already had and were overpriced but I did buy all this:

    Firstly, it was an odd mix of 80s and 90s systems. Apparently the dad of the family was an only child in the 80s and when he got old and had kids he spoiled them as well. They kept their games in immaculate condition. I turned around and looked at a shelf in the corner and had a mini heart attack when I saw a shelf FULL of boxed games, and had another mini heart attack when I saw the price... $3 a piece.


    I ended up with a huge pile of Nintendo games, ranging from mid 80s all the way to late 90s. These are the NES games. They are all minty fresh with the exception of Karate Champ, which has a rip in the box.


    SNES games. Contra III and TMNT Tournament Fighters are the stand out games to me. Again all these games are minty fresh and complete!


    N64/Gameboy games. I didn't notice when buying but the card game and Dr. Mario have no game inside. I'm sure I have a loose GB Dr. Mario. Fist of the North Star has some cool box art if I do say so myself. All of these games are mint and even in their original little plastic baggies inside .


    This box was sitting in the closet. The people running the sale really didn't know what games went to each system. This contains Intellivision, Colecovision, Atari 2600, and Atari 400/800 games. I've already pulled out this:

    (Part 2)

    I've pulled these notable games out of the box. Some may not be so rare but they looked like it to me, the Xonox games are for Colecovision: Sir Lacelot, Artillery Duel, and Chuck Norris.


    When I got to the car and took a better look in the box this was looking me in the face!


    The Coleco controller thing and the joystick were $10 for both so I figured what the hell and bought them. The Telegames system (Dina 2 in 1) is complete and in really nice shape and was $20. I had vaguely heard of it before so I took a chance at that price. I bought "Barbershop Ballads" just because for $1.


    Other misc stuff. There are a few baggies of Star Wars trilogy cards from the 80s and 70s in there that were $1-2 a bag, I thought they were neat. The Nightmare Before Christmas figures were $3 a piece, and the Popy diecast space toys were $1 a piece as well.

    Any 80s toys people know what that lizard thing is? It's a battery operated toy that walks. I have no idea and thought it was worth it at $3.

    The total for this sale spent was just under $250. I got some other things not pictured but the Coleco and controllers were $30 altogether, the boxed Dina 2 in 1 $20, and the boxed games $3 so yeah...

    EDIT Oooohhh and I got this Castle Greyskull (He-Man) playset, found it in the corner of the games room. It was a whole $6. I didn't think it was worth mentioning (I thought it was very incomplete) but it actually has quite a few parts with it. I heard this set has a bajillion parts but my fingers are crossed.

    Got Tony Hawk Ride today at Best Buy for $20. Was waiting for it to lower to that price.

    Wow, they really charged $120 for this at one point?

    I'm so excited right now! I was browsing on Play-Asia.com for fun, when I noticed that they were having a sale. One of the items that's on sale is Solatorobo: Sore kara Coda e for only $29.90! Well at that price I couldn't resist.

    So I hopped in my car, and went to a local bank to get a VISA gift card. (Since I don't have a credit card, and there was no way my Dad would let me borrow his card.)

    Now, I just have to wait for it to show up.

    whatever you do don't try to do actual skateboard tricks with it

    great way to break it very fast rofl. luckily my cousin didn't care

    but then again it kinda pissed me off i was like why the fuck did you make a controller thats simulates in every perspective a real skateboard and made it out of hard plastic too but yet you couldn't build the sensors to take some minor ollies or nollies...

    From what I've experienced playing it so far, the best way to play it is with your hands. A lot easier to do 180s and tricks, playing on the board is impossible and hurts your feet because of the edges around the sensor.

    At least when Shred drops to $5 game only in a few months I have the board.
