November 2011 Finds

[snes_collector]

Found a couple things today:



The SNES games came from Goodwill, everything else ended up being $42 from a pawn. SMW, DKC, and Zelda are for trade shall anybody want them

[Sunnyvale]

$14.08 after tax. On the left are all uniques, the top is broken bits, and the rest is rank-n-file. I should do pretty good on em, there's a few decent ones in there.

[c0ldb33r]

what are they?

[Cornelius]

what are they?

ditto that.

I found two bare NES toasters for $3 each and an asciiware SNES controller w/ all the turbo switches for another $2.25 or so. Not going to bother with a picture, though the NESs are in pretty impressively bad shape.

Sorry, I should have assumed all of us don't know about this stuff. They're WizKids Mechwarrior miniatures. A strategy tabletop game. Not worth what they were in their heyday (mid-2000's), but still have a following.





The dial on the back is a dead giveaway it's a Wizkids miniature. After checking all the LE's out, I'm guessing I'll get $50-75 for the lot. Nothing to write home about, but it's a decent percentage.

I used to play Battletech back in the day and I'd brag about a percentage like that.

Street Fighter for the Game Gear - I would have bought that - it'd be a neat pirate cart.

Crap, that is a lot of video books -if any are turbografx 16 related let me know.

It must of been Streets of Rage (Sega Game Gear, 1992)

You see I saw it but didn't look at it clearly,it was within a pile of paperback books but there was a guy who called someone on a cell phone and asked if it was worth anything..He said Street Fighter-Game Gear Game in the Box..over the phone and the guy said not to buy it so when I heard that I didn't give it a second thought.

Of all the places to find a US Sega Saturn, a Craigslist posting in Seoul with the title "Sony Playstation 1" would not have been high on my list of likely places. The description even stated it was a Saturn. Odd. I plan to get a controller (either here or have one of my spares mailed to me) and try to sell the system and a game here, but I figure worst case scenario I have to mail it all home and after piecing it out I basically get Die Hard Arcade for free.

Everything for about $40 USD:


System with all cords
ASCII Arcade Stick
Virtua Cop Gun


Games with manual:
Clockwork Knight 2
Daytona USA: CCE
World Series Baseball 98
Virtua Cop 2
Independence Day
Die Hard Arcade
Sonic 3D Blast
Maximum Force

Games without manuals:
Wing Arms
Virtua Cop


Can anyone tell me what those foam pads are with the system? They were included with the package so they may not be involved with the system at all.

[FamicomFreak]

NICE What an unusual find! ^_^ congrats! Now the controller quest begins!

[Porksta]

Well shit, my Saturn just exploded into a puff of smoke. That will teach me a lesson about voltages. Now here is hoping I break even on the games.

Uncle Stonehill's Hat (random pickup of the day)

Wait wait wait. So ummm... A children's album produced by a Christian folk musician AND the guy responsible for the music of The Neverhood (and of course Skullmonkeys!). What the heck is that like?

... Wait. The fuck? I only picked it up because I thought it was a promo album for a computer game, or maybe a soundtrack. I had no idea it was religious in any way.

Now I see that's not the case... and how it sounds like, well, I dunno, I haven't opened it yet.

[RASK1904]

Found the 1st apperance of Hellboy yesterday. 0.95.

[orangest]

And a purchase from DP, Military Madness and Neutopia for the TG-16, game / case / booklet...

Ha...when I first saw the picture, I thought maybe you were the one who won this auction of mine.

Just noticed that your user rank says Strawberry... lol

Don't know how long it will take to get to orange...




Found these last night at Goodwill-sealed PS2 Silent Hill 2 and Simpsons Road Rage for $5.99 each.

[ownerizer]

Great find on that Silent Hill 2.

[Porksta]

It looks faded though, or is that just the lighting?

[Kitsune Sniper]

Nope, that's definitely sunfading.
