I think I'm done for February, so time to update. I went nuts this month, but actually spent very little. I took in all the Genny/SNES/N64/PS1 games that I had never managed to sell on here and traded them in at the new game store near me, and happened to do so on a B2G1 sale day... so I pretty much wiped him out of loose NES carts
So, that is where 90% of these came from. The rest were just flea market pickups.

I love collecting NES carts, and a few sub-sets are:
* the "pixel art" Nintendo games (i.e., Balloon Fight, Duck Hunt, etc.);
* the "silver label" Konami games (i.e., Contra, Jackal, Super C, etc.);
* the "Captain Commando" Capcom games (i.e., Gun.Smoke, Mega Man, Trojan, etc.);
* the "purple label" Capcom games (i.e., DuckTales, Little Nemo, Mega Man 2-6, etc.);
* licensed Tengen carts (i.e., Gauntlet, RBI Baseball, etc.);
* unlicensed Tengen carts (i.e., Gauntlet, RbI Baseball, Rolling Thunder, Shinobi, etc.).
I've been having a lot of fun picking up games for these subsets! The one I am mainly focusing on to start is the silver Konami games, which I have more than half of now. From there, I think I will go into the purple Capcom games, as there are so many games I want in that subset, and it will set the bar a bit higher than th Konami games.
I'm curious, out of those 3 pricey Capcom games (SB, RR2, DT2), which do you prefer? I plan on picking one of them up when taxes come in, as my first "gem" so-to-speak. I'm leaning towards one of the platformers, but just can't decide which one to go for.
