    Fluke wins with the Stadium Events.. you can't beat that even if you were givin a Neo-Geo for free found a Phatasy Star for .25 cents and they were sold to you by a topless 18 year old girl..
    Fear your thoughts because they become your words
    Fear your words because they become your actions
    Fear your actions because they become your habits
    Fear your habits because they become your character
    Fear your character because it becomes your destiny

    Therefore: Thinking and nurturing positive thoughts, at any point in your life, can change your destiny.

    if that proto haul was within this year, then i vote for that. 2 stadium events is a great find, but it doesn't compare to a floor covered in protos, many unreleased.

    I don't want to compete in this - and maybe it doesn't even count - but when I travelled out to Cincy to meet the CommaVid guys I came home with a boxed Video Life, Stronghold and Cakewalk and a loose Magicard. They were free. Anyway, that's my "find of the year".

    hmm.. got to go with DP then.. because you can buy 2 loose Stadium event's on Ebay once every other month if you wanted to.. but how many boxed video life's can you buy in a year threw any channels.. at any price?

    You can't vote for me though - I'm not competing.

    I would mention my 20-buck Irem Arcade Classics import for the PS1, but I get the impression that was just a big find for me. (But I was looking for it for four years!!)

    What the hell, I'll throw my hat in the ring. I covered this in my year-end-review post, but I don't think I'll burn out the link. Picked this up at a Milwaukee flea in February for $95. A bit pricey for a brag, but I've yet to hear of anyone who knows of another one in existence. May I present the Sears 2600 Video Game Selection Center!


    Works like a charm too!

    Yes, yes it does work like a charm.

    Hope you managed to get my drool stains off of it.

    I posted here in March about finding this in a thrift for $5


    I remember Captain Falcon from this board had his Gold NWC cart up for auction on ebay at the time. I was at work a few hours before finding this cart , showing a co-worker(fellow gamer/ collector) the gold NWC auction. We were talking about how cool it would be to find something like this...
    I couldn't help myself, I took it to work the next day. When we were leaving, I called him over to my car..."Look what I found last night after work..." and handed it to him.
    I wouldn't normally keep something like that in my car at work all day, but the look on his face was worth it!!
