I bought a Genesis Model 1 that came with power adapter & R/F cable, 2 official 3 button controllers, a third party joystick, and 5 games for $20 on Craigslist a few weeks ago.

Last week I won 5 eBay auctions (same day) from the same seller on these boxed N64 games for $85 shipped:
Banjo Kazooie
Banjo Tooie
LoZ: Ocarina of Time Collector's Edition
LoZ: Majora's Mask
Paper Mario

grabbed the 1st PS2 puzzlegame FantaVision copy from Hastings... the FMVs are WEIRD...

kinda interesting:
The University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa uses FantaVision in the cognitive neuroscience lab of the Psychology Department. Participants in the study play FantaVision and run computer tasks. The research hopes to find a transfer of skill in perceptual task performance. They are referring to the game, not the old GUI thing. And do they have to watch the cutscenes?

That was odd like the Phalanx SNES box.

Well, today I was searching my soon-to-be brother in law's room looking for a missing game disc. He was there trying to help me find it, and it took forever because the room is really messy and he has a ton of random game stuff spread everywhere (a few Dreamcast, Playstation 1 & 2, Gamecube, and quite a bit of XBox/360 stuff). So as we were looking we found a lot of old games (the cases and discs were in separate places so it was surprising finding so many together.) He knows I collect games and keep them organized in good condition so he gave me some of them to keep that he hadn't played in ages... Freebies :)

PC:
Beyond Good & Evil Complete in Box
Diner Dash in Case
Mega Man Legends Complete in Case
Sims 2 Complete in Case

Playstation:
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night Complete in Broken Case
Einhander Complete in Case
Mega Man Legends Complete in Case

Playstation 2:
