All right, I took a long hard look at my collection, and realized that I have a lot of games I don't like that much. As I don't really have the room to just keep collecting crap...I'm going to pass my crap on to you! Wait...that didn't sound right...
Anyway, my trade list is broken into two sections...the first section are games that are in nice shape. No major label damage, and no ink or stickers on the cart. I won't say they are OMG WTF!? Mint, but you get the idea...all carts are loose unless noted otherwise.
Edit: Games already traded away are now off list...I won't remove wanted games until I actually have them in my grubby paws

The second part of my list is the "Scratch & Dent" pile...label damage, names / initials in ink, old rental stickers yadda yadda yadda...all are playable (I checked every game last week) but there are condition issues with each of these games: if you need a picture of anything, let me know...I can get them for you eventually.
Beetlejuice - Torn back label
Breakthru - Small stain on front label, very small nick on corner of label
Captain Comic (blue)- Initials on front of cart, cart is dirty, light pressure wouldn't take it off.

Darkman - Rental sticker on front label, slight peel on end.
Dudes With Attitude - Small nick on corner, peeling edge on front
F-15 City War - Stained label
F-15 Strike Eagle - Cart has nicks, label appears to be stained / faded in places
Friday the 13th - 2 copies - both have very minor end label nicks / peels
Fun House w/ Manual - Peeling end
Hatris - Looks to have stain on edges of front...name of video store "Lee's" ETCHED into cart on the front
Ikari Warriors - Torn back label, sticker residue on front
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (Taito) - "Lee's" sticker on front, "Lee's" etched into cart, slight rattle in cart, plays fine.
Klashball - Peeling end label
Legend of Kage - Slight peel on front
Little Nemo Dream Master - Tape residue on label, ink on cart
Mega Man - Cart is a mess - Torn front label, peeling on end, name inked on back, back label nicked up.
Metroid (silver label)- Obviously played a lot (not by me though...) scratched up label, corner is worn away, back label has a nick or two.
NES Play Action Football - Random scratches on back of cart, back label is damaged
Rush 'N Attack - Red initials on front, different black initials on back
Silent Service - Slight peel on front, lots of scratches, small damage on back label
Simpsons Bart vs. The World - Ink on back, worn corner label.
Spider-man Return of the Sinister Six - stained end label
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - UPC type sticker on front label, cart dirty (I'll work on it )
Ultimate Basketball - Dinged up corner, peeling end
Venice Beach Volleyball - Bad scuff in middle of front. Corner is worn
Whomp 'Em - Stained label - still some stuff on cart I couldn't get to (I'll work harder on it too )
So, what am I looking for? I'm looking for games that I think will be more fun, and a few other oddities as well.
A couple things:
1. Yes, I know that some of what I want is exceptionally rare...I don't expect to get any of that stuff. This is just a list of everything I want for NES. I'd be just as happy to get a copy of Soccer as I would an NWC cart...seriously.
2. I really just want to trade. I'm looking to make my NES collection better, not get rich (not that I could get rich off my stuff).
3. I don't care too much about boxes or manuals...
4. I know some of the games I want stink...I've just always wanted to own them...
Without further ado...the long list of stuff I'd like to have.
