Picked up at a Pawn Shop

Capcom Digital Collection (360) = $7
Xbox 360 Wireless controller with rechargeable battery pack = $10

Then picked up a PS3 Uncharted Collection controller bundle for $36 on clearance at Kmart. I didn't need Uncharted 1/2 so I traded both them in at Best Buy for $25.50 in store credit. :D

Answered a craigslist ad the other day for:

-Very lightly used, boxed, black Wii bundle (with NSMB Wii, but missing the SMG soundtrack)
-PSone with three official controllers, red memory card and a/c + a/v cables
-Non-working PSone with a/v cables
-Official Sony PSone LCD screen
-Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 (disc only)
-Goldeneye LE (Wii) (complete)

Got it all for $105, which is a little rich for me right now, but I'm content with it as part of it will be made into a Christmas gift.

Also, as a different kind of "look what I found," I won an auction for Langrisser Dramatic Edition on the Saturn ($3.50-something before shipping) complete, but missing the spine card. So I got it in the mail the other day, and was looking it over to check out the condition, and I noticed between the disc spindle, the paper behind it seemed to be two-toned. I thought it would be interesting if it were the spine card peeking out, stuffed behind the disc tray. So I popped it open, and lo and behold, it was the spine card in fantastic shape, just sitting there inside the case. It's a bit funny how different people who hold on to spine cards store them. Nice little bonus, and it was kind of fun finding something extra hidden inside the case.

FYI: That game is terrible...

(Seriously, it is a complete disgrace...I also own it - and have no intention of selling it - but it is definitely a part of my terrible games sub-collection.)

No pics right now, but I found a GEM of a new 2nd hand store that opened in my town. Lo and behold, they had some stuff. Nothing amazing, but good prices none the less:

N64 Racer Controller Mint (this is the one that looks like an RC car controller, with the little steering wheel, and the trigger underneath for gas and brake)

Sega Genesis Model 1 High Def Graphics non TMSS with power supply and RF

Bart VS The World for Game Gear in protective plastic case
Street Fighter the Movie for PS1 Long Box (CIB and mint)

Prima Strategy guides:
The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker
The Legend of Zelda OOT
Knights of the Old Republic
Knights of the Old Republic 2
Star Fox Assault
One that has 4 different games in it, but it eludes my memory at the moment

Sealed Blu Rays:
The Dark Knight Special Edition
Inglorious Basterds



Nothing was priced except the Blu Rays ($3 a piece) so I asked how much? The guys said how much will you give me? I started with the books, and said I'd do $1 a piece, and then I picked up the Genesis, and started to say $5, and he cut me off and said, how much are the DVD's again? I said $3 a piece. He said, so that's $6, how about you give me $10 for everything? I couldn't argue with that. LOL. We talked for a while and he gets his stuff by buying storage auctions. I told him that he won't make any money if he just gives his stuff away. He told me that if I help him price some of the electronics and games, he'd let me have first dibs on it all, and for dirt cheap. I'm deff. in for that.

He was getting rid of his collection to finance his final college film. So i bought two of his games to support him. I made him an offer. He checked their value on Ebay and accepted.

In related news, searching eBay for "D" on the 3DO is really difficult given the one-letter title.

I know JP Interactive is probably worth $10 complete in real nice shape -
