Battle Jockey - $3. It is a very uncommon SFC game that has no press anywhere. Its a four player horse racing game that is similar to Mario Kart, but all racers are on the same screen:

My wife is a horse person, she has been riding on her own since she was three and her family owns ten or eleven horses, and she loves kart racing games so I thought it was a perfect fit. Its actually part of her Christmas present. Ive been eying it on ebay for years, but it rarely pops up and when it does its for $40-60 and always complete. Luckily, Cdamm hopped on this site last week and put it up for sale.

Now for Stakes Winner 2 on the MVS to go up for a decent price...

Yeah $4 for Crystalis is a solid deal. One of the best games on the NES too.

I nabbed these today for $13:

Yeah I know it's not that good of a price for two old sports games (two of the same game in fact!), but I'm always thrilled to find complete Saturn titles - and the 3DO game is still sealed!

Oh and I collect golf games. :lol:

My best finds of the year:

Kinda meh, but... (I apologize for the mess. had to clean my desk at that time)Image

^ $20 at goodwill

But I hit the freaking motherload a month later.

^ $15 at my local flea market. I had no idea what it was all worth... $150ish according to the ebay prices at that time. If I had known I'd have given the guy a little more... It all worked (EDIT: the contacts on the 3 button controller needed to be cleaned... but that's it, the B button didn't work until cleaned) including the CD before I sold it. I needed money and had to stop collecting for a while... so I sold that.

Awesome! I nabbed a loose Sega CD2/Genny2 combo (no hook-ups) for $5 a few weeks ago. The guy said it didn't work. I didn't power on... until I switched Genny's. The Sega CD was fine. :)

You scoring Tatsujin and that 6-button stick was well worth the extra $10. :P

Picked up a used Wii U pro controller at my local used record/game store for $33, I figured it would be the cheapest I would find it, even though I dont really need one yet ( I do have a Wii U though).

Strange they had 2 of them, the guy said they had just came in ( I had been wondering how 1 week old controllers had already been traded in). I figured either they bought them and realized that no Wii-U games really use 2 of these yet, they thought they were for the original Wii, or they were stolen lol.
