Last week when I went to Yuma, I took a bunch of dvds and music cds to hastings. Dawson creek was one if them.
59 things traded in became either $160 store credit or $110 cash. I took cash. I wanted credit, but a friend of mine is building a PC for me and I had to pay him for some parts.
So yeah Dawson's creek is getting me one step closer to me being a PC gamer.

Monday finds! At the fleamarket I got both for $10 from a seller That hybrid logitech PS2 keyboard controller and Modem. I think that's probably one of the widest if not biggest controller this side of Steel Battalion! Then for $6.00 from another seller I purchased Warehouse 13 season 1 DVD, Altered Beast CIB genesis and a Full metal Alchemist notepad. I also got a Nyko wii nunchuck for $3.00 And the last stall before I left I found for $10 those JPN gameboy games and NES controller. I have no Idea what they're called! Maybe someone knows? Leaving the flemarket I went to some thrift stores! At the salvation army for $7.00 I got Faster on DVD, A Far Side gallery book and three US gameboy games: Tetris, Super Rc Pro Am and Space Invaders. I then went to another local thrift store and I ended getting a bunch or cables for $10. A short HDMI cable, a xbox breakaway cord, and two gamecube to GBA cables. One original and one generic. For a second I thought that $10 was a bit too steep, but that thrift store is run by volunteers to help single mothers and abused women. I was being a cheapass. Plus they've given me nice deals in the past. So I scolded myself. Lastly before I went home I went to gamestop and pre-ordered Hyrule warriors for 3ds and I went though their Wii section. I picked out those two games. Hidden Mysteries Titanic and Around the World in 50 games. Didn't see much info on the second game. Its published by Zoo, whose past track records on some wii games aren't that great. But I'll risk it for $2.69. What do you think about my latest gets?

All Wii games are worth adding to one's collection. I routinely go through Gamestop's Wii section and buy a handful of cheap shovelware titles. That's how I ended up with six Cabela's hunting games; I'm a pacifist who refuses to hunt in real life, but I'll fucking wreck some deer in a shitty video game.
So I mentioned in the gaming happiness thread I picked up a sealed copy of Wing Commander II for $20 as it's my favorite game, probably of all time.
Just randomly looking around after that I noticed a sealed Wing Commander: Privateer on Amazon for $9 from a highly rated seller. I took a shot on it and it turned out awesome.
Obviously these aren't the original releases (which were on floppies), nor are they exactly rare or in demand, but they're still sealed DOS games from the 90's and mean a lot to me. I'm excited to have them.
Got some great finds today! Lets get the ball rolling! Picked up some JPN Dreamcast games today at my local fleamarket! A facebook friend told me last week got a few JPN games too from a seller. He told me he didn’t buy them all. I couldn’t make it last week to the fleamarket but this time I did! And it looks like the lady still had them! She gave them all to me for $20. At first she said $4.00 each, But she rounded it down to a more even number. Not going to complain! I’ve bought stuff from this lady before and she knows she has good stuff to sell. So a Jackson seems reasonable for these games.
Now this was the highlight of the day! My Wednesday fleamarket does not disappoint! I'm going to link to a video, and all the games contained in it cost me $10 dollars! F#CKING Score! If you haven’t seen, there are some great games in that binder! A few games are missing, those cover have been snipped into fitting into that binder, and there’s no cases sadly, but that’s not the point! I got ton of gamecube games for $10! I easily made a killing with the games in here! Here’s a bit on how I got them. As I was rummaging through some tables I noticed some binders, some had music cds and two stood out. They had games in them! One with some pretty common wii games just like in this binder and the other had these awesome Gamecube games. I asked the guy ‘how much each game’ and the guy stood there for a second. “you want all of them?” he replied. ‘Sure’ I told him back. For all these choice games, I was expecting at least $40 or $50 for the lot. But when he said $10, my imaginary jaw dropped! Insert *FRY TAKE MY MONEY* jpeg! I gave him a ten dollar bill and went my merry way before he changed his mind! And when I was far enough away, I made this quick vid to post it on my usual social networks! I am still freakin’ excited over this great find!
And here’s the last of my Wednesday gets! There’s that binder again with my nintendo haul! I also got those PS2 games and blu-ray movies for a dollar each. I do believe pac-man world is going to be a double! And also right there is my new Ike amiibo. My good friend got me it! and now I owe him $15 bucks.
I am extremely happy with my finds!

Great scores! I have the ASCII Gamecube and Logitech PS2 versions of that keyboard controller, both huge for a "laptop" controller kicking back at the couch. Both can work on the PC as well with matched adapters. The PS2 version has a standard USB cable for the keyboard.
Super find on Zelda Four Swords even if not CIB. The Gamecube Thread got me thinking about the games I missed. I have the Mario Partys, I think every Mario/Wario, Kirby and even obscure titles such as Gotcha Force, Chibi Robo, Cubivore and Dopshin The Giant. Though I have most of the GC Zeldas, I regret not picking Zelda Four Swords back in the day. I love Pacman VS and reeeally should get 4 Swords for the GBA "party mode".
