Video Game "Look what I found"

[Stark]

I mean, I want the dual analog controller, with the concave thumbsticks, not the regular dualshock. I have enough of those.

I don't remember any dual shock controller having concave thumbsticks and I had the one for the PS1. My memory is pretty faulty sometimes though.

Very nice finds! PS2 Stretch Panic is so "Katamari" weird, nice catch! Quite a few very good 2600 games, I'm curious which rare 200 titles were passed up. No worries, too far for me to sneak them from you.

There was nothing mind-blowing, but there were some relatively rare and valuable games that I would like to add to my collection at some point. To the best of my recollection, they included:

Smurfs Save the Day;
H.E.R.O.;
Double Dragon;
Secret Quest; and
Spacemaster X-7.

All of them were at or slightly above market price, but none of them are games that you find too often "in the wild."

CRT- My bust on that. Not sure where my head was on that.

Thanks. H.E.R.O. is pretty good, I have the 5200 version a good cave explore game. Spacemaster X-7 (had to look up) looks interesting, maybe snag due to its obscurity? Atari Age rates it at 6 on the rarity scale. The Smurf game has a rarity of 8!

Well, it is not known by many. At a casual glance looks like a regular PS1 Duel Shock. aaron hit the nail er stick right, the concave plastic tops are the quickest way.

this is kind of a big deal for CRT, and the topic dominated about 80% of the forum a few summers ago.

Gotcha, I understand your post better now. Interesting read.

I've bought some deals from video game shops since the past 2 weeks. Last week I bought Street Fighter 2 Turbo (SNES) for 12 dollars, Pikmin GCN for 16 bucks, and Zelda 2 (NES) for 8 bucks from my local game store. I also got a pretty good 3rd party GCN controller for 5 bucks from Five Below, and yesterday I bought Patapon and Locoroco (both CIB) for $4.88 from gamestop.

Vay kicks ass and that's a really good price on the Sega CD RAM cart.
