I asked to see it, and it had the controller, and RF cable (ew) and the power is built in. Price was $20 bucks! It turns on and displays an animation on screen, going to burn a disc and make sure it works fully. I have already owned a 3do before with a decent selection of games, and was not really a fan. This will most likely hit the trade thread.
Oh man, that's awesome! I'm still waiting for the day when I find one out there.

PC Star Trek Omnipedia - $1.00 $0.80 Thrift Store
Thrift Store had a 20% off Thanksgiving sale. A nice supplement to the paper edition.

PC Battlezone - $1.00 $0.80 Thrift Store
A nice higher resolution upgrade over the N64 version. I love the remakes of Sinistar and yes even Defender. This adds a nice strategy mode over the Arcade version.

PC Star Trek Game Show - $1.00 $0.80 Thrift Store
Had to get this simply because of Q being the host. Quicktime video a little rough, should be able to make this work with Buzz Controllers. :idea:

PC Tempest 2000 - $3.00 Thrift Store
Different Thrift store, another beautiful Arcade remake. Already have the DOS/Win95 Space Ship cover version as well as the soundtrack.

This is the older DOS only version, fully installs thru DOS Box. Not that I was specifically looking for it, but it only took me Two Years to come across it! :lol:

A very nice review of the PS1 X3 version:

Xbox MadCatz Macro Controller - $5.00 BookOff
Unlike most Xbox 3rd party controllers, this is as big as the Duke! Oh that crazy Macro option for combo moves, still trying to get Auto Fire programmed into it.

EDIT Aha the PDF Manual!

7800 Alien Brigade - from beatnix
Spotted when it was posted in a huge pile of Finds some pages back. Jumped in right away with an offer before the game was posted in the Sale Thread. Surprised no one mentioned it when it was first posted.

Found a find in someone else's find!

Not a big fan of Operation Wolf, had to buy it for its obscurity as well as one of the last and largest chip memory games for the 7800. Does not work with 2600 sticks, but does play with 7800 controllers, one button is machine gun and the other for grenades. Now to find an Atari computer Lightgun on the cheap.

7800 Galaga - from beatnix
A nice bonus freebie! Already have this, always good to have a backup of a great game. Especially on the 7800 with so many exclusive two player simultaneous gameplay.

Wii Death Jr - $6.29 Gamestop
Its no Medievil, a PSP remake that is still ghoulishly cool. With the WiiU, PS4 AND Xbox One competing for shelf space, I need to keep looking for Wii games at Gamestop before they get their cases tossed. :?

PS2 Bombastic - $5.00 $4.00 Thrift Store
Another 20% off game. Follow up to PS1 Devil Dice, I am tempted to pick up the Japanese edition at BookOff. Nice, this uses the Dpad and only one direction has to be pressed for the diagonal moves. This makes it easily compatible with Arcade sticks! :D

:?: For our Japanese based Members, any difference in the NTSCJ version? :?:

PS2 Haunted Mansion - $5.00 Swap Meet
Not the movie version, but based on the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland. Actually a decent game.

PS2 Lego Indiana Jones - $5.00 BookOff
I am determined to get every PS2 Lego game while they are still common. Only one or maybe two more to go. This follows the first three movies, some difficult puzzles to pass thru the levels.

DVD Rango - $7.00
Oooh yeah a nice animated movie. The cameo appearance of a certain Spaghetti Western gunfighter is hilarious. I loathe Disney for purposely leaving extras out to push the BlueRay editions. Still undecided on DVD Wreck It Ralph because of that.

DVD Tremors Attack Pack
Not as good as the Aliens movies, but an interesting take with a desert theme. Seen the first three movies, this has four.

CRT, is that Tempest just classic Tempest, or is it 2000/X3?

This is the older DOS only release, X3 is the exclusive PS1 version compatible with a PS1 Mouse or Nyco Trakball. Updated the post above including a nice review link at World Of Stuart.

A buddy of mine found this for a couple bucks at a garage sale this summer. He asked if I knew anything about it... I don't. Anyone know much about this little guy? Thanks

According to Wiki, Unisonic's Tournament 2000 was made in 1977. It has 6 selectable games built into it, but they're mostly PONG clones. It was made in Japan.

There's a review on youtube.
