That's a great game and I've seen it go for very cheaply lately. Retro game store around here had three copies for $2 last time I was there.

Make sure you also pick up Legacy of the Wizard for the NES. It's also part of the Dragon Slayer series and usually only costs a couple of bucks.
I'll look into that.


Got a good deal on a DSi XL today on Ebay. $90 shipped, via Priority mail. I convinced the seller to lower his price because the cameras were broken. Not that I care enough to do anything about it. Why would I need my DS to have a camera?

Picked up Marvel Super Heroes: War of the Gems for $10.

To be honest, being a big SNES fan I can't believe I've never seen or heard of this game before. I heard its like a sequel to X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse which I really enjoyed.

That is a sweet deal and I totally agree. I've never played any game that required the camera and if I'm going to take any pictures it won't be with my DS.

@ Goodwill today:

NES:
Bart Simpson Vs. The Space Mutants
Double Dragon III
Wizards and Warriors
Mega Man 3
Contra

Atari 2600:
Swordquest Fireworld
Swordquest Waterworld

Tandy Computer something-or-other:
A CIB Tandy joystick controller

Total cost: $21.

Edit: after some research, it appears my big winners are Contra and Swordquest Waterworld. I already have Contra, so I can flip this one for $10 or whatever, and Waterworld is worth like $100. :D w00t. Mega Man 3 will be staying with me for sure, however.

N64 games:
Shadows of the Empire
1080 snowboarding
Goldeneye
Crusin' USA
WCW vs nWo: World Tour
Kobe Bryant in NBA Courtside

Price: Free

Found in a box by a dumpster. They were filthy and had been rained on. Now they are clean and dried up. They seem to work fine and look pretty good.

Bone up, dude! It's actually a really interesting story regarding the Swordquest games. Also check out AVGN's Swordquest video, as it's one of the better ones of his that delve into the history and story of the game he's reviewing, rather than bash it..

After the research, you just may end up wanting to keep that little gem.. :wink:

Found mint in box earthworm Jim for genesis. Including original poster at goodwill. The cashier had no idea what it was, so I paid just fifty cents.
I just want to separate the cereal from the mouse mask.
