Re: Video Game "Finds of the Day"
Picked up Grand Theft Auto Double Pack for Xbox at Goodwill for ten bucks. A little pricey but GTA3 and Vice City are complete with the maps and everything in nice condition. Even got the nasty sharpie written price off of the cover

$10 for the only wrestling game you will ever need is a great deal. It requires some patience, but Fire Pro is one of those rare games that gives you back everything you put into it.Weekend_Warrior wrote:Fire Pro Wrestling Returns (PS2) *NEW/SEALED* - $10 @ Wal-Mart

Re: Video Game "Finds of the Day"
Wanted to share some game-related finds during my 2-week vacation in Wildwood, NJ..
Virtua Fighter Tiger Game - Free!

A friend gave this to me.. Don't really know why - who wouldn't want to play a primitive 3D fighting game on a Tiger handheld..?
Game-related Candy thingys.. - $10 total

Saw these at a Five Below and had to get them! Will probably end up going back for more game-related nonsense...
Pac-Man plush dolls - $0.33 ea!


Won these out of a claw machine on the boardwalk! 3 plays for a dollars, so I figured why not.. The first try I got Pac-Man, second try was the blue ghost! At this point, I won the only two different kinds of prizes in the machine, so I won a third ghost for a little girl who was looking on with her mother.. She didn't know what the hell it was, but she was happy to get a free prize..
Domo and Skeletal Domo plush dolls - $0.50 ea!

Ok, not so game related, but my girl loves Domo, so back to the claw machines I went.. Another dollar on a $.50 machine and we walk away with two prizes for one buck! I guess I've got a knack for the claw...

Re: Video Game "Finds of the Day"
Ah well baseball in general can be a slow game (especially if both teams are really good, extra innings!), but I really love the sport so I had to get a retro game of it! It's a great time killer if you got lots of time to kill. :pRurouni_Fencer wrote:Nice little grab there! I recently got Baseball myself and it's so damn slow...

Re: Video Game "Finds of the Day"
Got this lot recently as part of a huge bundle, sold some of it on but had no interest in the Game Gear items.
Estimated cost, about £10.

I decided if I couldn't sell them I may as well add to them.
Found this lot on ebay described as not working, when it arrived one would only work with batteries and the other had a black screen. Cost £17 posted.


A bit of swapping of boards and casings and I ended up with a fully working one with an almost unscratched screen.

Found this lot on gumtree, very quiet sound which was fixed using the sound board out of the broken one above. Cost £5 collected.

The power supply does work but I think I will keep it for emergecys only

This lot was found on ebay described as untested. Cost £20 collected.

The black XBOX is soft modded and has a sticking disc tray when no disc is in it. It also throws up a service error and has to be powered down and back up to work again.
The crystal one works fine.
Only 1 controller works properly.

Most of the disc are heavily used but work.
Suprisingly the following games dont work or crash shortly after loading.

Quite a high faliure rate.
