At my local Thrift Store I found a Sega Saturn 3D controller for $5, works perfectly. Now I can play Sonic 3D Blast with good control!

Hahahaha.

I'd like to snag one of those eventually - I don't think I currently own any compatible games.

Get Nights. It is awesome. Easily one of the best games on the Saturn.

I picked up a boxed Japanese Dreamcast yesterday with a copy of House of the Dead 2 for twenty dollars. I really was happy with that, and after I bought the Dreamcast, I noticed that there was a cd in the box. It came with a CIB Dreamcast System Disc 2. I figured it was just something that came bundled with Japanese Dreamcasts, but it turns out that they were used by developers to boot GD-roms with pre-release games (Dreamcasts play burned CDs but not GDs) on retail systems. It seems they were expensive for developers to purchase, and fairly sought out by Dreamcast collectors.

Found a PS2 Slim 7000x model with all hookups and a controller for $25 straight at a flea Market. Today, Me and a friend stopped at 2nd hand thrift shop and found a another PS2 Slim 7000x with connection cables only though, for only $19 straight. Both work great play disc types (PS2 DVD, PS2 CD and PS1 games). Not too bad.

I was able to pull a few small finds over Friday including a wonderful, CIB copy of Parasite Eve 2 for 3 bucks that I almost walked by because it was covered up pretty well. The copy of Rampage is also CIB and went for 1.51. I also pulled a CIB Edgar Allen Poe action figure for 1.91, which is a great deal if you see what they retail for. Unfortunately, most of my usual spots have been dry lately, and the reason I got the game was because I went to a Goodwill that I never go to in the first place lol.

Just Edited my previous Reply. The games I have are 3D Crazy Coaster, 3D Mine Storm and 3D Narrow Escape. They do not work since the Imager is needed though. Gaaah I wish I had found those glasses when I bought the color wheels.

Here's my collection, the twenty dollar "Black White TVs" bought at the Swap Meet many moons ago. I modded a couple older Apple II joysticks to work in the Vectrex. The Driving Paddle works with the Spinnerama cart. :D

I am sooooo jealous of this find. I actually pulled my Vectrex from a thrift way back when I was in high school for less than 30 bucks and I adore the thing. I eventually got my hands on a collection of games, both CIB and loose from another thrift on the other side of town, but I have never seen a collection like this in the wild. Most of this stuff is in someone's collection at this point so good find!

Was supposed to stop by a friends stall today to pick up some games that I was looking at last week, but his stand was closed :P. However I did get this lot for $20 Best deal of which was Mario Golf(N64), Donkey Kong Country(SNES), Super Mario World(SNES) and The Jungle Book(SNES) grouped for $5(she actually had these out in her car and hadn't brought them in yet). She also had some Dreamcast games and software and I hardly ever see that around this area.
