Killer Virtual Boy find today! (and some major irony)

[norkusa]

Didn't see the weekly "Finds" thread anywhere, so I figure I'd post this here. Just a couple weeks after completing my US Virtual Boy collection with Jack Bros., the VB finds still keep coming! Today at Goodwill I snatched up the following:

VB System with AC adapter in Blockbuster hard case ($12.99)

Games ($1.99 each & all complete):
Galactic Pinball
Teleroboxer
Vertical Force
Mario's Tennis (with promo box)
...and Jack Bros!

The ironic thing is that I just traded a Vectrex system to DogP a couple weeks ago for a complete Jack Bros. Why is it whenever I trade for something big or buy off ebay, I'll find the same item in the wild soon after? Oh well, I'm not complaining. It'll be nice trade bait at least!

as a side note, I also scored a complete PC Kings Quest collection and an old DOS version of Ninja Gaiden for dirt cheap. After seeing how much KQ goes for on ebay, I think I'll have to dump it there.

That is a nice find!

Do you think the Block Buster hard case is a collectable item?
I ask because a friend of mine has one i'm sure he'd sell it to me really cheap if i asked or offered something SNES in trade.

Sure it is! I paid $50+shipping for a very nice one (case only) last year and I still thought I got a good deal on it. If you can get one of those Blockbuster cases for cheap, pick it up.

Nice find, and do you have a want list??? You have 2 out of the 5 games I still need to finish my US VB collection I'll gladly double your investment maybe even triple it...

The most amazing thing is that the Jack Bros. is complete. Congrats!

God, I've wanted to play Jack Bros. forever. I always thought that game looked cool.

Of course, I've wanted to Virtual Boy forever too...

I'm a hardcore V-boy fan, I didnt complete the game collection, I have most of the games, but..

Is Jack Bros worth finding? is it a fun game?

I bought the Blockbuster case off ebay with a broken v-boy for about 20 bucks. I love that case.
