    Copied from the January thread because I'm an idiot....

    FROM MONDAY:



    Fortress of Narzod (complete!!)
    Clean Sweep (box, overlay, cart)
    Cosmic Chasm (box, overlay, cart, envelope)
    All for $39 + shipped from AtariAge


    FROM TODAY:



    Krazy Kreatures
    Isolated Warrior
    Wheel of Fortune: Family Edition
    Astyanax
    Top Gun
    Guardian Legend
    Phantom Fighter
    Predator
    Vegas Dream
    Dirty Harry
    Snake's Revenge
    Blaster Master
    Super Spy Hunter
    Fester's Quest
    Legacy of the Wizard

    All NES, all cartridges are in PERFECT condition! No marks, no nicks, perfect stickers! And they all have MINT manuals in the cases with them. And these cases are all in nice shape too. Where did these come from? Some re-seller or something? They have a hang tag, so I assume they are from a store somewhere.

    Thanks!

    Wasn't aware that game was an R7, I guess I need to pick it up from a store that has a copy. It'll go nice with my Saturn copy.


    I did a little thrifting today, a lot of driving around but not a lot of finds to show for it. Most of these were from a couple Movie Trading Companies, the copy of Pitfall II was from an actual thrift. They had a bunch of other Atari games, but I was on my last couple bucks because I kept forgetting to go to the damn ATM. Besides, I already had the other games, even though they weren't all that common.

    The weird "Cars of Fury" box was something I picked up in a thrift for $3.99. It's a Mac-compatible game with an included USB analog controller shaped like a race car to play the game with. It's pretty rare for me to come across any Macintosh games in the wild, so I bought it to see if it sucks or not.

    Both of you guys need to be slapped upside the head with a wet trout! Even a lowly Wacoan like me knew that In the Hunt on PSX is an R7!

    Alright, man. I don't really need it, I'd just like to pick it up for when it's harder to find years from now when I start getting interested in collecting for the Playstation. At the moment, I'm not a PS1 kind of guy.

    Thanks, I didn't really know too much about the comics. I only found the first issue at a thrift store so I picked it up(I also got a couple of Batman: The Animated Series comic books at the same time). I should note that the comic series came out before the SatAm TV series did, there's an advertisement to look out the TV show "coming this fall", or something like that.

    I'll look into the archives, I still think it would be pretty expensive to get all the archives as they come out as there's a lot of issues in the series. I really don't know how many archives would need to be made to get caught up to date with the recent issues.

    I know I've passed on those before, all I know are worth money are MS office and OS's. Need to figure out the other programs that are worth money. Are old versions of photoshop worth anything?

    Anyone have sort of a list?

    Also, very tempted to buy this:

    http://tucson.craigslist.org/vgm/1582924328.html

    I have no idea where to put it though. I could barely find a place to put the 36" TV I got for free a few days ago. Wouldn't fit on the TV stand I put it on my dresser and moved all the games and crap on my dresser on a pile on the bed and am sleeping on half the bed.

    Well, if just want to read the stories (and not have to fork over a ton of cash to do so), you should check out your local library and see if it has any of the Archives volumes available. If it doesn't, you might be able to request that they order/add it to their catalogue.

    Oh, and before I forget, Archie has also started reprinting the Sonic 48 page specials in a separate compilation series called Sonic Selects.

    Is In The Hunt that submarine game? I have 4 copies of it in a box somewhere, three regular jewel cases, one longbox. If anyone wants one, I'll sell or trade them one cheap.

    I have a list, but it's all in my head. There's no "real" list anywhere. You just take a chance and learn from it. ;p

    Sorry dude.

    I want a regular jewel case version, actually. I have the longbox but I hate it 'cause it's a cardboard one. Care to make a deal?

    On the cheap is right. R7 or not, the game simply isn't valuable for whatever reason. I landed a jewel case copy for a couple dollars within the last year and could've gotten a longbox for about 8 dollars off here. Nice you're willing to share though, good on ya.
    Whaddya mean invalid parameters?!

    9,000 gigs of ram and it still can't answer a simple question!

    Yeah, the main reason I started picking them up is because they're rated R7 here. I didn't realize they're worth pretty much what I paid for them, $5-10 each.

    Kitsune: I'd prefer to trade. I'm looking for a couple other PS1 games.

    Great finds, but I especially like the FoOF HD-DVD, as I've been looking for reasonable priced copies of both it and Letter from Iwo Jima but so far can't find them under $10 each.
