Sega Nomad - $85.
Not a "find" in my traditional sense of paying pennies on the dollar for the good stuff at the thrifts but I'd been wanting one for a long time and this one had been sitting behind the glass at a local shop for months. Good enough for me, and a nice way to start the new sticky monthly finds thread format!

anotyher trip to the thrift shops.
mostly non-video game stuff... but I did manage to pick up an older gameboy light (with batteries) for 25 cents a large roll of I think gameboy printer paper..or it could just be adding machine paper..either way it was 25 cents.
I also grabbed ANOTHER mk1 complete for 2$ for genesis..I think this makes 5..anyone want it?
the find of the day was the plug and plays for 2$ each all with batteries and they all work perfectly
I feel stupid but I left the spiderman one behind..and was too lazy to go back for it..oh well
either way a good day for me.

Ya, well, good luck with that Gunpai Yokoi thing.The February finds threads was created early for the psychics in our forum.
I predict that I will find the following items in February:
- 100,000 copies of E.T. for the 2600 that I found in a little garbage dump in southern New Mexico
- A prototype Atari 1450XLD that I found in Goodwill for only $2
- I will find that my new neighbor will be, in fact, Nolon Bushnell hiding out from that disaster of a TV show he starred in last year ("Made in the U.S.A."). We'll be drinking beer and hanging out in his hot tub and I'll be pitching my idea for a new 3-D video game.Yeah, right; and I predict that Gunpei Yokoi will arise from the grave and give me his autographed GameBoy prototype (and a six-pack :P)
By the way does anyone know where I can store a couple 100K of ET carts? It's taking up a lot more space than I thought it would and I would really like to park my car in the garage again.
Oh, and Nolan says hi (his hot tub is really cool).
It's been a good enough month.
I got:
NES Bible Buffet $1.99
NES Mig 29 $1.99

16 or so SMS games complete including Rastan, Castle of Illusion, Moonwalker (need that I think) and many more.
$3 apiece for Vectrex Scramble, Berzerk and Hyperchase all loose (any Vec find is a good week or month). I also got a pile of not so rare Sears label variations including that cool end label Speedway 2 and some pix for my tradelist at $3 apiece. Guy gave me some free N64 manuals too.

That's just the thing; I can't understand what the pictures are saying if they're all red X's!
