[DDCecil]

Haven't really found anything, just got the following for my B-Day:

Neo Geo Pocket w/ KOF R1
Digital Dance Mix Namie Amuro (Saturn)
Jissen Stock Market Game (PC Engine)
Street Fighter II Super Famicom Hintbook
Sega Saturn Magazine Review Book (Eve Burst Error is the #1 game, Death Crimson is #945!)

(Pics in the Off-Topic Forum under my B-Day post)

Stopped in a new pawn shop today. Looks like someone just dumped their PSX rpg collection there because they had a ton of killer stuff. The amazing thing is that they were all totally mint and scratch-free. For $50 I got the following:

Valkyrie Profile + strategy guide (both for trade)
Legend Of Mana + strategy guide
Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure
Tales Of Destiny
Final Fantasy Anthology (sure, it's a GH title now, but I like the originals and this version seems to go for $40 still)
Final Fantasy Tactics strategy guide (1st printing, for trade)

$10 a pop for PS1 games is almost double what I usually pay for them at pawns, but considering the titles I got, I really didn't mind paying extra. :P Anyway, Hit a few thrifts afterwards and got a couple more things:

(Complete NES/$3 each)
Magic Darts
Double Strike

(Complete Saturn/$2 each)
Virtua Fighter Remix
Nights Into Dreams

[Querjek]

Arrived in the mail today:
2 blue VMUs

Mario RPG manual (!!--been trying to get one for a LONG time. If anyone has the box FS/T, PM ME NOW!)

I'm going to do the "trade-in 4 games for Sonic Heroes" thing tomorrow, and pick up an N64 for $15 at EB.

Error on Best Buy's part. I've got 2 Splinter Cells, and 1 Simpsons Road Rage from this. Actually, I don't need both SCs...

[josekortez]

Querjek, I just traded for Splinter Cell this morning, but I have PS2 Breath of Fire, Gungrave, and Mad Maestro and Xbox Mace Griffin and Soccer Slam up for trade in my trade forum post, and I'd like to get Dead to Rights, Need for Speed, and Simpsons' Road Rage among others...

Just a bit of self-promotion. And Querjek can vouch for me.

Anyway, you may now return to your regularly scheduled weekend finds thread already in progress...

[Dahne]

Today was my very first time garage sale hunting. Didn't get anything great though. Only found a couple that even had games.

First thing I found was Mortal Kombat (boxed) and Mortal Kombat 3 (loose) for the Genesis. Also found a blue Konami lightgun. I asked the lady how much she wanted for em. She shouts at somebody in Spainish, then says, "Twenty." I'm thinking "Huh? You mean as in cents?", and my dad starts getting out his wallet. I start walking away, and end up getting the lot for 10. Not great, but my very first (albeit uniontentional) haggle.

Then I found at Goodwill:

NES:
Bad Dudes (loose) - $2 (Couldn't pass it up)
Ninja Gaiden 2 (loose)- $2

Sega CD
Echo the Dolphin (boxed, with instructions) - $5

My very first game for a system I don't even own.

I don't know how you guys do it.
