This weekend I thought was going to turn out bad but just at the very end of my garage sale hopping, my luck finally changed.
I came to a sale and noticed 2 SNES games on a table. Looked at the first one...Mortal Kombat...no thanks. Looked at the second...Ogre Battle...for $4...SOLD! At the same sale I soon noticed 2 Famicom systems with a box load of games. I asked what he wanted for it & he said $20 for everything. I ended up with 1 clone Famicom system, 1 original Famicom system, and 20 games. The games turned out to be all bootleg but I didn't care since there was some Japan only games and a couple _ in 1 carts.
The final sale I hit that day had a bunch of bare systems littering the lawn. I figured a couple were worth the gamble since they were so cheap. Got a CD-I system for $5, a Saturn for $5, and a Sega CD2 system for $1. I'm not sure if I hold out much hope for them since they had old Cash Converter stickers all over them. I'm hoping they aren't defective returns but haven't checked them yet.

I envy you guys to no extent. Where do you people find these deals?! I have -0- game stores within 30 minutes of my house. Thats right, I have to travel close to an hour in order to get to -1- game store that I know of.

[den68]

figured I'd move this since I carelessly started a new thread with the same topic

a local video store was having a tent sale and suprisingly they still had a lot of Genesis and SNES stuff. All were boxed and some still had manuals. The boxes were in great shape too, not all sunbleached like most former rentals. The Genesis and SNES stuff was 3 for $10, DC was 3 for $12 and PSX 3 for $32.

heres what I got:

Genesis: Fantasia, Adventures of Batman and Robin, Double Dragon V, Capt America and the Avengers, Minnesota Fats Pool Legend, Dashin Desperados, Kawasaki Superbike Challenge, The Pagemaster and Pink goes to Hollywood.

SNES: Tetris 2, Dragon the Bruce Lee Story, Double Dragon V, Seaquest DSV, Cutthroat Island and Mohawk & Headphone Jack.

DC: Zombie Revenge

PSX: Fatal Fury Wild Ambition, King of Fighters 95, Rival Schools, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Robotron X and Tobal #1

I also picked up some new DC and PSX stuff cheap at Best Buy, Media Play and FYE.

DC: Ooga Booga, Soldier of Fortune, Conflict Zone and Outtrigger

PSX: Skydiving Extreme, Sheep, Power Play Sports Trivia and Hooters Road Trip

gotta love those tent sales!
