    Default Midweek finds - 7/28 to 8/1

    I know the week hasn't started yet, well it will in approximately three hours for me

    But I was so happy with this 'find' that I had to start this topic a bit early... :P

    Sega Master System 2 with two controllers, Alex Kidd in Miracle World built-in game and the following cartridges:
    Wonder Boy (cart. only)
    Columns (boxed with manual)
    Super Monaco GP (boxed with manual)
    Super Space Invaders (boxed with manual)
    Arcade Smash Hits (boxed)

    All for the low price of.......NOTHING!!!!

    Ahhh, gotta love free games!!!!

    I know it's not exactly a rare find, but the 'free' factor I think is more than enough to boast about!!!

    Lode Runner - NES - $1.75


    I don't know if it is rare.
    I really don't care...I played the hell out of that game on my parents Apple, the NES version is very fun. Good memories and simple, classic gameplay.

    Lode Runner is an old time fav of mine, and I too remember playing it on my Apple II. Excellent game!

    Rockman X7 (new) for free -- sort of. I bought it with points. I had $50 worth from when I bought my DVD-R there some time ago. VERY mediocre game though.

    Good old Gamestop

    Sonic and Knuckles (complete) $5.99
    Gunstar Heroes (complete) $4.99

    And wouldn't you know they end their sale and all of a sudden a lot of good price used games show up. I would've walked away with a lot more if it was still going on.

    First finds in quite a while for me:

    Mash for the Atari 2600 $1.49
    Frogger (Complete, w/Box) for Commodore Vic-20 $1.49

    And the following are complete with boxes, except where noted, and for the Intellivision. Each was $.99
    Space Battle (No Instructions, otherwise complete)
    Major Leage Baseball
    Poker & Black Jack
    Sea Battle

    Pretty good finds. I now have about 15-20 games for the Intelly, but no system, so I think that's what I am looking for next. I found these at two thirft stores.

    Dragon Warrior II
    A Boy and his Blob
    Athletic World
    Game Genie w/ book
    Wizards and Warriors


    Street Fighter Alpha II (SNES)


    for the low low price of $30. Damn Gamestop sale ending today, it could have been lower. Still, Dragon Warrior II mint? Who trades that in?

    -AG

    p.s. I'm not that much of a NES or SNES person, if anyones interested in any of those, they're for trade

    Holy crap. It's been a while.

    Beginning Grammar (x4, 2 different labels.)
    Decimals
    Division
    Early Learning Fun (x2, 2 different labels.)
    Early Reading
    Fractional Numbers
    Integers
    Minus Mission

    They all came in one big black carrying case. I'm not sure whether or not it's actually intended for the cartridges, but it fits them perfectly.

    All this for $3.00.

    I had some good finds today after a little dry spell. Here's what I picked up for $25-all Atari 2600, 9 w/ instructions:

    Spike's Peak/Ghost Manor, Porky's, Pigs in Space, Surround, Piece o' Cake, Stargate ('87 release w/ diff font), Rampage, Frostbite, Pressure Cooker, Space Shuttle (blue label), Strawberry Shortcake, Title Match Pro Wrestling, & Gremlins.

    Video Game Organizer Case- $.94
    Sega Saturn-boxed, 1 controller, Nights, and Sampler CD-$30.00

    I also saw a Sega Master System, but it didn't have the power supply & tv connector, no games, 2 controllers & 2 guns for $25.99, so I passed.

    Clayfighter TE for the SNES 3.99 at GameStop. I don't know if they differentiate between the TE and the normal version, but they didn't this time.

    Woot!
