I still need to pick up Biometal. One of the few shooters I am missing for the SNES.

I picked up a NES Action Set with box, manuals, posters, etc. for Five bucks today at a garage sale. It's only missing the light gun and the SMB/Duck hunt cart (both of which I already own).

I popped open the unit and inside was Karate Champ, which may be the worst game of all time for the NES.

Everything works great.

I then found a copy of FF7 CIB black label at a local used bookstore for five bucks. Talk about a good day!

I'll be keeping the NES, and hopefully flipping FF7 on ebay, since I own two copies already lol.
216!

Finallly got a Master System. Paid $26 for a set (only $6 shipping - ok, then)

I've got a guy i've bought from before that has BINS full of complete master system games. Notably - no Phantasy Star or anything but I'm sure for a buck or two a game I can grab whatever I'd like.

Only one controller but that's okay for now!

sweet! The SMS is so great. In a strange way, I might like it more than Genesis.

!YARD SALES!

PlayStation games - $1.00 each
Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee - Great game, black label to replace my Greatest Hits version.
A Collection of Activision Classic Games for the Atari 2600 - Thanks, Atari, for the verbosely descriptive title.
Tomb Raider Chronicles (no manual)
Eternal Eyes (no manual) - I usually will avoid incomplete PS1 games, but I was interested enough in playing these for $1.

Sega Genesis Plug 'n Play - $0.25
- This is actually pretty crappy, and I don't know what I should do with it.

N64 GameShark Pro Ver. 3.3 - $2.00

SNES games - $5.00 each
The kid selling these had a few more, but I already had them and his firm $5 each was a bit much to pay for trading copies.

PLEASE take a seat guys.

You may just need it. :lol:

Following on from a previous thread where my LOVELY brother was given a load of retro goodness from a work mate, for FREE, here is my story.

My BEUTIFUL sibling was due to visit me today at 18.00.

The tension had been building, for at least a week, since he informed me his friend had come good.

From the moment I awoke the only thing I could think about was what food my brother would bring me to quell the retro hunger pangs I had.

I paced up and down most of the afternoon in anticipation, the curtains twitched as if there was a force 9 gale.

18.00 arrived and went :o , the tension reached fever pitch.

18.25 my brother rolls up, I put on a false face and seem uninterested, as he was late, whilst trying to contain my exitement.

My good brother brings in a fairly large crate and I loose the pretence.

I stare at the crate only able to see the top layer of retro goodness.

My brother goes into the garden to socialise with the rest of the family, I single handedly haul the heavy crate up my near vertical loft ladder into my lair like a spider with a fresh kill.

The crate as recieved..

Having quickly and thoroughly scanned the top layer I eagerly dug deeper to fing..

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D
The bottom of the crate was where the GOLD was lurking..

It was a good day. :D

All items are yet to be tested/cleaned.
Will be done when I come down off cloud nine.
You gotta love brothers, don't ya :D :D

Very nice, loving some of those NES games. Did you have the systems before or are these new entries into your collection?
