SMS's have games built in? This I did not know. On the box it said that Hang on and some other game were included. Maybe I should turn it on already.

Maybe you should... :wink:

Romance of the Three Kingdoms X, I think I shall play as Sima Yan, though his stats are rather bad. I'll recreate him as he is supposed to have all of China United under the kingdom of Jin so I think his stats should be better than what they give him.

Picked up a Capcom Fighter Power Stick for the Genesis/MD for about $15 after trading some stuff in. It's in incredible shape. Probably the best arcade stick offering in the US from the 16 bit era. Playing MUSHA is pretty incredible on this thing.

Drove about 40 mins north to complete a craigslist deal (guy buying some blinking NES units) so checked out some game stores / thrift stores up in that area.

Thrift stores were a bust, nothing good this time. Hit up two game stores nabbing a few things I've had trouble finding:

Space Invaders (SNES)
Stinger
Metal Storm
Gun Smoke
OutRun 2006
Time Crisis: Crisis Zone
Neo Contra
Fatal Fury Battle Archives Vol. 2

Hit up a so-so swap meet while I was out there and found a SNES and Saturn for sale, paid $20 for the pair.

The Saturn (MK-8000) came with one game in the system, virtua fighter remix, and two special controllers, the Arcade Racer Joystick, and Sega Mission Stick

The SNES came with the standard hookups and two controllers, yellowed on both ends.

Today I did some volunteer work for the Habitat for Humanity. I figured it would be a good thing giving back to the community plus I could get first dibs on stuff I like and I could help sort through the junk they had. I mean they have a old department store basement full of odds n ends. So after I worked a few hours I browsed for a bit.

Here's what I found.

1)A box of 100 plus empty clear CD cases (figure I could use them to swap out cracked cases and what not) $1.00 for the lot.

2)Atari 2600 PacMan cart 0.50 cents

3)N64 power adapter 0.50 cents

4)Nes power adapter 0.50 cents

And as I was getting ready to leave, I took out some trash bags of "junk" out to the dumpster. So I figured hell why not rip them open to see whats in side. I found to Tiger Electronic Games.

1) Sonic 3

2) Basketball.. The plastic is a light blue (dont know if it is original color or just faded) I've been trying to do some research on this one but can't seem to find this actual version.

I always pick up random little handhelds and what not, I do not know if they have any really value just something to add to the collection!

And no I am not volunteering solely to find video game stuff lol it just happens to be a perk of doing the volunteer work plus it makes me feel like I am giving back! :P :P
