All Cib and on PS1,Disc have light play marks and cases pretty beat up.For my personal collection.

$3 Steel reign (Looks like Armored Core 1 but with Tanks)

$3 Star Wars phantom menace (This and KOTOR are the few Star Wars games Ive tried and liked)

$4 Gundam Battle assualt (never played any of the series but seemed like a neat fighter and really cheap).

He spared you that trauma? I would have given that man a couple extra dollars as a tip.

Picked up a loose Super Famicom on eBay for $31 shipped. A little bit higher than I was expecting, but at least it's in good working condition.

Finds today at a local consignment shop:
NES + 2 Controllers +SMB/DH : $15
The outside may be a bit beat up, but the inside is pristine. Its as if these people bought an NES, and then never took out Super Mario Brothers after they got it. Works perfectly ^__^.

And then.. I looked over at the n64 case and found:
Super Mario 64: $5
Super Smash Bros: $5
Mario Kart 64: $5

also.. I snagged an original Xbox controller for 5 bucks...

Pretty awesome haul ^___^
