Totally random find today, was walking in the downtown area of Sacramento today, passed by and "Antique" store (It really looked like a bunch of yard sale reject stuff) There were some vintage starwars toys that caught my eye to I went in, after checking them out I found a small shelf of games for various systems. Found Resident Evil (Gamecube version) mint/complete and mega man x5 (ps1, complete), asked a price and she said 3 bucks each for any game! Too bad there wasnt anything else there too worth picking up, but I am happy with what I got.

Really? Sweet. I'll have to go check that out. People still play Unreal Tournament 2004 too so that makes me happy.

What's nice about them is too that with my relatively new laptop I can crank the detail up real high and both games look GREAT here and run super smoothly. I didn't know both games also used id's Quake III engine.

yard sale - $4 for everything

An interesting note, the guy who designed the Microvision also did the Vectrex. And apparently the Microvision was seen in Friday the 13th pt. 2 lol. Both are going in my b/s/t if anyone is interested.(I still need to test them out first)

With box and everything in great condition? That would be a good deal!

Only issue was missing cover for GCN controllers, but heck that is all I wanted it for anyway LOL. It was cheaper than a component cable for a Gamecube :shock:

Wow what an improvement in my games too. Baten Kaitos, (or however you spell it) looks awesome :shock: :D :lol:
