J_wil, definitely send me a pm if you decide to flip it. Ill either trade or buy. I don't care about the condition so much.

Majesco stuff does dissapoint compared to the "real" things. It might be me, but the cart feels cheaper. My copy of Frogger and Mutant Apoclypse feel cheap. I hate the molded back label on the carts too,

That is crazy, congrats! Why did your friend do that, moving on to a newer console?

Yeah, just one that only plays some newer games and was 'done' with them. As you can see they're more 'mainstream' games that sold tons of copies and aren't really worth much. I'm only keeping 4 of them, so going to check with some more local friends and maybe spread them out first.

Hit the flea market today and grabbed a bunch of common NES games for $3 each, SNES games for $4 each, and a sole Genesis game for $2. Also picked up some gems such as The Guy Game for Xbox and Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volley Ball 2 for $5 each and Superman 64 for $4.

Some of the cart games aren't in the condition that I would normally demand but it's not a big deal to me. A few standouts are Captain America and the Avengers (NES), Wolverine Adamantium Rage, Combatribes, and a couple of Spider-Man games for the SNES. I was so excited to see cart games for a decent price that I didn't realized I picked up 2 copies of Art of Fighting. There's some poop in the NES pile because I hope to one day own a near complete NES collection (minus the $500+ games and unlicensed stuff) but I'm actually interested in playing every single SNES game I bought.

I'm kind of appalled that Jurassic Park for Sega Genesis is keeping such company. Why is such a cool game hanging out with a gang of the worst games in the swap meet? Get out of here, Superman 64, and take those titillating XBOX games with you!

My finds for the week. Nothing major

Image

The comic shop at the big mall was having a half off sale and I scored Simon's Quest and Professor Layton for $10

I got the Duke today at the Salvation Army for $1.50. It has good sticks and buttons. needed a clean up and it was missing the break away cable. They wanted $3 but I mentioned the Break away cable and they let it go for $1.50. My S-Controller is ramshackled from trying to rig a USB cable to the memory port (I want to soft mod it) and I could never get at to work. The thing looks ugly and now I have this for normal games. Plus - The Duke feels better to hold than the S Controller.

Truth. I love the Duke. The best controller ever made for my big man hands.
