July 2011 Finds

[Vlcice]

Another nice find today!



American McGee's Alice - $1
Full Throttle - $1
Rayman Forever - $1

Found these three at Goodwill today. They're all in nice condition, with much cleaner discs than I was expecting. Too bad Alice is missing the front insert, but it does have the back with CD key - and it's the bloody knife version! How much are these going for these days? On eBay it looks like jewel case copies with front insert are going for $30-40 still?

[Porksta]

Yeah Alice is still going in the $30-$40 range. Bit of a drop from the $50+ a year or so ago.

Oh man, Colin McRae Rally. I have that game, and it's one of the few racing games I can actually enjoy since the CPU isn't a cheating ass bastard.

Today's flea market hunt was pretty solid xD



















Overall, I spend about $40 for these goodies

[Tupin]

Wow. Where did you get the reproduction of Terranigma? That game is pretty fun.

[wingzrow]

You found a reproduction cart od terranigma at a flea market of all places?

[Kitsune Sniper]

... Wait.

YOU GOT A REPRO TERRANIGMA CART AT THE FLEA MARKET?!

[Zama]

You found a reproduction cart od terranigma at a flea market of all places?

I was a bit surprised when I saw it there as well The guy who sold it to me said he got it made for him a few years ago by a buddy of his xD

[Zama]

... Wait.

YOU GOT A REPRO TERRANIGMA CART AT THE FLEA MARKET?!

I guess what they say about the flea market is true: you just never know what you will find there

Edit: Oops, double post.

[saferkefka]

[Granado_jake]

[Glitch695]

Since my digital camera was stolen, *GRRRRR* I have no pictures, but my rummage haul this weekend was pretty out of the ordinary. I found the following stuff:

3 Super Nintendo Systems - only 1 had an AV cable, but I have extras. I paid $10 each for 2 of them, and $8 for the third

NES System with
Castelian
Mario 3
Link's Adventure - complete
Bubble Bobble
Bible Adventures
And 4 other games I have already forgotten as they were rather common, $20

2 Nes Systems, both for $20, each w/ 2 controllers and light guns, and Mario/ DH

Game Boy Pocket w/
All six gameboy Pokemons, including Trading Card Game
Final Fantasy Adventure
Aladdin, Tetris, TMNT, and 3 other games that escape me right now
$5

Final Fantasy Anthology - no soundtrack CD
Bushido Blade
Tobal #1
Pokemon Sapphire
Zelda: LttP Four Swords
Zelda Oracle of Ages
Castlevania AoS & HoD Double Pack
Breath of fire (GBA)
GBA SP
$20

And finally, complete copies of Megaman Battle Network & Advance Wars for $5 each.

I usually don't have hauls this big, and that was only on Thursday and this morning. It's a lot of duplicate systems, but I need more stock for the show I'm trying to start in September. I'll be keeping Bushido Blade though, I really love that game. And probably Tobal #1, out of nothing more than nostalgia.

Stuff from the California Extreme arcade and pinball expo this past weekend. There were some deals to be had from a couple of the tables. I didn't come away with anything incredible but I did pick up some marquees I had been after, five for $20.



Donkey Kong Junior
Popeye
Mr. Do!'s Wild Ride
Chase H.Q.
Pac-Man Plus

All in pretty good shape after some clean up and auction sticker removal. That and DKJ had some bondo stuck on the end. Bought them for wall art but they're all decently backlightable. That's how the Chase H.Q. and Mr. Do! marquees are going to end up, shadowboxed. I'm going to build a little alternating double flash strobe circuit for the police lights in Chase H.Q. and as for Mr. Do! I'm going to coil some chasing white rope lighting or Christmas lights behind the marquee to illuminate the swirl pattern.

We also picked up a CAX show poster (like the one on the front of the program but way bigger) that was individually numbered and signed, as well as a Video Pinball 2.0 ENCOM poster from ThisOldGame.com. I also grabbed a couple "I'd rather be playing Atari games" license plate frames for my girlfriend. I meant to get a pair last year but I couldn't find them at the end of the show.

My Chase HQ marquee came with two textured pieces(same thickness as the marquee itself), is it supposed to have those or not? I never saw the actual arcade cab to know the difference.
