June 2014 Finds

[Kitsune Sniper]

If anyone's looking for some shrinkwrapped PS2 and GameCube PAL and Japanese Chicken Little and Narnia games, with a little POTC thrown in, the Redondo Beach Goodwill has you covered.

Their international flavor does not limit itself to modern gaming either...

Huh.

Something like that popped up here a few years back - some Japanese Disney games for PC showed up one day at a booth. I didn't pick them up, they were standard mini-games collections. It makes me wonder if someone who worked at Disney in California had a bunch of copies that ended up being donated to Goodwill.

Insert obvious joke here.

Hopefully, I am not sounding too stupid but the joke isn't obvious to me.

Easter Bunny's Big Day ps1 $3 looked weird so I took a chance on it. great condition

Thanks to some ebay sales I was able to splurge a bit and get my mitts on a 3DS and some 3DS games.

3DS XL (Blue) + 4GB SD + Kirby Triple Deluxe Loose - $110, Craigslist

Crush 3D CiB - $5, gamestop

Kid Icarus Uprising CiB - $22.50, eBay

Shinobi NEW - $5.10, eBay

Bravely Default CiB - $22.82, eBay

on the retro side -

Bimini Run (Genesis) - $3

Kaboom (SNES) - $4

Bubsy (SNES) - $5


Also got Shantae Risky's Revenge and 3D Classics on eShop, but no deals on those, just wanted to play 'em.

Trying to calm down my collecting for a bit while I sell off all my doubles and unwanteds. I have enough variety in 3DS games to keep me occupied and hundreds of retro carts so I can hold out for awhile.

I found a nice set of Official Nintendo brand Wii Component cables at GameStop today for $12.

I hit up a couple of other locations and picked up a couple of cheap titles like Enchanted Arms on PS3 and Deca Sports on Wii.

Got some nice deals at a local thrift store. I had to do a double take when I saw some pretty nice PS1 games some of which are sealed.
Megaman x4, Tales of Destiny II, Parasite Eve II all sealed for $20 each and Valkyrie Profile complete but opened for $15.

Heh, I've done that before. I'm so used to seeing crappy sports games that I'll end up doing a triple take at them since my brain can't comprehend what I'm seeing. Usually they aren't as good as the games you found, though. Congrats!

Got one more 3DS game for a pretty good deal that I actually wanted for awhile...

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon CiB - $23 - eBay

EDIT: and one more that I normally wouldn't be interested in but was too cheap to say no:

Steel Diver Cart Only - $1 -eBay (with free shipping)

Probably my last find for June 2014. I ventured up to the flea markets and found a Donkey Kong Country Returns on Wii for $12.

Helped out at a local game store today for a little bit ( repairing some N64 controllers he had in the back room ). Ended up with these for free. Very nice of him to do that since Im always there and always helping out on random things.

Playstation sign is pretty cool and lights up. and the N64 box is a box only with the foam inside.
