You do know that some later NES games just don't even have some of the center pins, right?
This is true, although it does look weird don't it. Even some Genesis games are like that. I am not familiar with SNES ones so I can't say anything about those.

nobody. But sadly he did have to tell his son there would be no Christmas this year.
he's already claimed the Samba set, so that should be Christmas enough for him.
damn! I really should have picked up mjmjr25's Samba set when I had the chance.

Had my eye on this lot for months.
Seller initially wanted £50, then lowered to £40, I finally jumped when it hit £30 :D

I picked up a Commodore 64 Plug & Play system for $10 at a local thrift store yesterday:

http://www.amazon.com/Commodore-64-Game ... B000701CSM

I saw it there over the weekend, and while I was intrigued by it, I did not think it was worth $10. After doing some research, I discovered that used ones sell for $35+, and I decided to head back to the store and pick it up.

In any event, I tried it out last night, and it does have a good selection of quality games on it, including Cybernoid, Impossible Mission, Impossible Mission II, Summer Games, and Winter Games. It is also as close as I will get to owning a Commodore 64...so it has that going for it too.

Qbert board game and Star Wars Death Star Assault boardgames - $8

Both are in decent shape, and both were bought for their Nostalgia factor, not game quality.

I Got ExciteBots for the wii CIB for 30 dollars, what makes this one special is that fact that this is the boxset that includes a poster and, a Wii wheel (steering wheel)

The reason im very happy with this purchase is because the Game olny version runs for $30 also :)

I'm aware but these ones were literally broken and scratched off. There were remnants of some of the pins still there.

Is this a good price for Lynx stuff nowadays? I'm genuinely curious, I remember the system being dirt cheap a few years back, although admittedly everything here is in great shape. Are any of those games worth a bit?
