Stopped by a pawn shop yesterday and got:

Terminator 2: The Arcade game for Genesis - Only missing istructions and near mint condition $3

Game Enhancer 3! for PSX (hooks to the parallel port) - I'm hoping it'll boot homebrew games with a swap trick(my Game Shark doesn't). $7

Stopped by Wal-Mart today to get a new mouse for my computer, and found that they had finally stocked the Jakks 10-in-1 Atari games in a joystick. $18.88

As I went slummin at the coast in Eureka, I came to a out of the place little hole in the wall that time forgot. I spoke to the old man and lady who owned the place, my eyes got very very big when I saw their boxed nintendo wall. They had over 100 boxed and mint with booklet games that were bought from a rental store. They had many color dream and camerica games, but most of all, they had a ton of games I did not have. Almost all the games were rare(examples Toki, Hillsfar, Bignose the Caveman, Power Blade 2, Legends of the Diamond, Deathbots, Death Race, Space Shuttle, Etc, ETc,) I bought the 100 nes titles, and they wanted only 200.00!!!! My wife helped seal the deal, and I convinced her it was an investment. I then was told that she had over 100 empty boxes and that for an addtional 30.00, I could take them. The best one was worth the whole lot....Bubble Bobble Part 2. I was also suprised to find in each empty box.........a mint instrcution booklet to go with the game box. WOW WOW WOW :). After this rad score, I will have over 300 boxed and complete nintendo games and I will need only(ha ha) 99 more to complete my set. Instead of doing a picture of what I scored, I am going to send in an updated room pics to show how much my room has grown.

I was able to go into the city this weekend. I picked up Taz-Mania and Uniracers at Microplay for $10 CDN. Uniracers rules!

But the best buy I got was an 11 game package on ebay:

Well worth it for Super Adventure Island 2 alone... I'm hoping to get a couple of Canadian equivalents that I don't have. Hopefully I get the package before the postal strike...

That's Awesome...I love to hear the stories behind the finds.
I almost thought you went to a store I know of..with similar details..Very Similar..I'm too cheap to buy the whole wall of used NES games in boxes..and empty boxes...but I've been poking at them here and there..
