Video Game "Look what I found"

silent hill, psone, disc & manual only - $1.50

SON OF A BITCH!

I've been looking to buy a new copy of that game for half a decade. The ONLY copy I've gotten my hands on in that time, the seller was asking for $200. You, sir, are a lucky bastard.

I got a copy of The Haunting Ground on PS2 for $5. I was excited to find this. I've been looking for this little known survival horror game for some time now, but had never seen it for sale out in the wild until now, and the price was sweet.

The first step is admitting you have a problem. I have ended up with 8 Genesis...s, but after the first 2 I was at least always buying it for the SCD or Power Base Converter or something.

You most not have gotten the big ugly thing that I got with one of mine. Bit cavernous thing with a smoky clear lift off lid? All mine is missing a fake wood sticker to make the 70s trifecta complete.

I've got one of those for Atari 2600 games. Complete with fake wood stickers.

I just couldnt pass up the $2 and $3 dollar systems after I had already purchased the $15 one! Also, my friend and I decided that the plural form is "Genesi".

I think I know the one you are talking about. Mine actually looks like it was made by the same company but it is just a game drawer, no lid on the top of it. Looks similar to this( http://cgi.ebay.com/Sega-Genesis-Storag ... .m20.l1116), without the weird cavernous thing that you mentioned.

BTW, I actually sent that guy an offer... I'm not willing to pay $60, and it IS ugly, but I wouldn't mind having it.

The one in that auction is the one that I have. I could have sworn it had a smoky brown lid, and thus more 70s looking. I guess I'm confusing it with actual 70s ones like Reverend has, or perhaps the lid on my vintage turntable.The lid on my Sega cabinet is fairly scuffed up and the ALS badge is missing from the center of the lid, but mine has no cracks or chips.

If you don't get that one and still want to add it to your collection shoot me an offer.

Yesterday's find.


N64 - Ice blue with expansion and matching controller
N64 controller - grape

Starfox 64
Mario Party 2
Paper Mario

And the real reason I picked it up, a Mr. Backup Z64

Apparently you can swap in a hard drive for the zip drive since its IDE.
