$39.99
1. it's beautiful.
2. It's region-free I take it?
3. Ready for TR? Wait, what? I thought DDRes was a new game in the series? Is it actually a remake of DDP or something?

Slightly reassuring! Thanks :P I guess I'm enjoying the Nomad so that's what really matters. It was just one hell of an expensive yard sale compare to what I'm used to.
They probably just had too good of an idea of what their stuff was worth. haha

It is the PAL version - which is region free.

Yes, new(er) game - I just lump all DoDon's together for reconciling purposes. I'll need to figure something else out for December.

It seemed like I hadn't found anything decent at yard sales in a long time. Today was pretty good though.
All these games came from the first sale I visited. Always nice to find good stuff on the first try!

Yoshi's Story
Star Fox 64
Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire
Star Wars: Rogue Squadron
Scooby Doo Classic Creep Capers
Dr. Mario 64
Spider-Man
Sega Genesis - $1.00 per game
Sunset Riders
Virtua Fighter 2
Shadow Dancer: The Secret of Shinobi
Trouble Shooter
Vectorman
Rolling Thunder 3
Comix Zone
Crack Down
RoboCop vs. The Terminator

The sellers had a ton more Genesis games, mostly common Sonic and licensed stuff and Genesis and N64 hardware and controllers as well.

These are from a different sale:

$2.00 per game
Game Boy Advance
Golden Sun
Spyro: Season of Ice
Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure

Lots more GBA and DS games were available, but mostly kiddie licensed stuff.

Nothing super-rare or valuable or anything, but tons of super solid games to play. Keen!

Was given this...
Image

No indication on the box as to how many games it has, connected it up and nearly fell off my chair when the starter screen showed 76,000 in 1 :shock: , turns out it has 60 different games duplicated x 1,000s :lol:
The gun games are truly laughable due to being able to hit the targets as long as you point the gun in the general direction of the screen :lol:
I love FREE stuff :D

Got this from Gumtree...
Image
It was up for £30.
As I already had some of the games I offered a cheeky £20 which the seller accepted 8)

Had some good boot sale finds today, will post up later.

I have a few of these, each cart has a different layout, the worse is that 76,000 set. A 500 repeat of fifty game titles is bad enough but that number is crazy! However, the best part of the bootleg PlugnPlay is the Famicom cart adapter underneath, later models do not have the slot though. Look for Tetris 2 buried in the list, it could be the recalled game Tengen Tertris.

WOW, thanks CRT, I had no idea this would accept Famicom carts , apparently there is an adaptor which allows the use of Pal and Ntscu NES games also.
It does have Tengen Tetris, as you said, named Tetris 2 :)
The "analouge" stick works aswell, which I believe is not the case on most of these.

Anyone interested in what this thing does here's a youtube review in the style of the great astronomer Sir Patrick Moore...



So todays boot sale brought...
Image
Plushies 50p each :D
Summoner 2 £1
DBZ B3 £1
RECV X with Devil May Cry demo disc £2
Dance Factory £1
Wario Blast £1.50
Yoshi's Island SMA3 £2.50 :( Can't get this to work, tried on 3 different systems and it's as if no cart is in the machine.
Cleaning it with a qtip and white spirit didn't help :(

Dissapointment offset by finding...
Image
cost £20 :D

Wonders what tomorrow will bring.
