mas wrote:got the new south park game for the 360. Wanted to play it but now my wife and kids are all over it. Now I don't have a 360 anymore lol. Went back to the game store and got punch out for the wii and a boy and his blob. then went to a pawn shop and bought twilight princess for the wii for 5.00. Funny thing was I wanted to get spyro and final fantasy also but they were scratched so the guy just gave them to me. 3 games for 5.00. The first time I got a good deal in a long time. Had no intentions to go the pawn shop but it was too early to get my kids from school.

hell yeah, mas.

SNES QJ SN Programmable SV-336 - $10.00 Luna Games

For an older Arcade Controller, this has very sweet micro switches. Nice tactical feedback, this beats the grey PS1 Arcade stick I see all the time. Has a LCD screen for programming, also indicates stick direction switch and fire button hits.

SNES Supaboy Plastic Empty Box - $5.00 Luna Games
Just the box, the OCD collector in me wanted this. I already have Supaboy 2.0 which comes in a cardboard box. This is the 1.0 plastic box that almost completely encloses the cardboard box inside.

DVD Dead Man - $5.00 BookOff
DVD Momento Special Edition - $5.00 BookOff
DVD Koyaanisqatsi - $5.00 BookOff
All pristine condition, love the way BookOff protects the media with resealable plastic envelopes.

This was especially important for the movie Momento which has a cardboard cover simulating a patient's file folder. This DVD Special Edition has a crazy menu that plays out like the movie; a memory search to find all the Easter Eggs.

DVD Talk has a Guide - http://www.dvdtalk.com/features/navigating_the.html

The Limited Edition DVD is uniquely packaged to look like Leonard's case file from a mental institution, with notes scribbled by "doctors" and Leonard on the inside. The DVD menus are designed as a series of psychological tests; the viewer has to choose certain words, objects, and multiple choice answers to play the movie or access special features.

The Dead Man movie is more like an Indie film, quite good, has a cameo role with Robert Mitchem and in black and white for the higher contrast. The old Indian is a kick calling Depp "Stupid White Man", ironic years later he plays an Indian in the new Lone Ranger movie.

Koyaanisqatsi is a montage of video and music. Slug thru over an hour watching city scenes in fast forward, this is crap! Baraka is sooo much better.

"Tetris" Date Calendar Pencil Holder - $0.25 Thrift Store
Well that is what it reminded me of, a cross between Rubic's Cube and the Sliding 15 Number puzzle games.

SNES Faceball - $6.94 EBay
Not bad for a CIB SNES game Ebay purchase. Been wanting a GBA version of the addicting GB version. This works as a larger portable version for the Supaboy. Anyone remember seeing the Atari St original years ago?

SNES Gamepad - $15.00 Luna Games
SNES Gamepad - $3.00 Swap Meet
For Fire Retard Plastic, both in very good non sunburned condition.

I found an old Atari Pong Home console (from the 1970s) at the Salvation Army that looked in great condition. I had to pass on it since my Gaming budget is a bit low right now. If it's still there next week when I get paid then I might consider picking it up.

Another mountain of stuff today thanks to the PSP 3001 bundle lot I got off eBay.

From Ebay for $132 Shipped. Was looking for a 3001 unit to record with and this happened to catch my eye while I was hunting eBay. Bidding war brought it from $100-$132 in the last 30 secs lol

. Still some good games in there and plenty of duplicates that I can resale to recoup some of the money.

Also hit the pawns and decided to hit Goodwill since I had to drop off some packages at the post office next door.

Pawn #1

Got these for $3 a piece

Pawn #2

One of the clerks I have befriended was there so he tossed in Mojo for free. Rest came to $12. Have been meaning to pick up Earth Defense Force 2017 for a while now the copies are only $9 at gamestop right now but about the only place I can get them is online and shipping would bump it to $14

.

Goodwill as usual had crazy high prices but I managed to find this record of WW2 Hits and the first VCR game to enter my collection.

From Pawn America I picked up a couple of things.
Yu-Gi-Oh: The Dawn of Destiny CIB (Xbox Platinum Hits version, no cards) - $1
Phantasy Star Portable CIB (PSP) - $5
Gadget Boy DVD (10 episodes) - $2

Plus the two PSP games I ordered from Walmart ship-to-store came in so I picked up Platypus and Tactics Ogre. I actually have a fairly decent PSP collection and don't yet have a PSP. Oh well, I'll find one at some point, maybe at a garage sale this spring/summer.

I got X-Men Children of the Atom for $20 from an Amazon seller and I got Real Bout Fatal Fury Best Collection for $4.67 shipped from eBay. I'm getting ever closer to a complete Capcom Sega Saturn 2D fighting game collection! I am not looking forward to hunting down Street Fighter Zero 3 though.

Took another trip to a local retro game store today with my girlfriend and a mutual friend of ours. I decided it was time to clear out my closet of all the old systems/games I didn't need to hold on to anymore, and ended up getting about $75 in store credit which I quickly used to purchase these:

The Bluetooth speaker and Wario Ware: Smooth Moves were both $20 each, Super Ghouls N' Ghosts, the 7th Saga, and Wario Land were all $10, and the Rumble Pack was $5. Definitely left a satisfied customer. I've never played Ghouls N' Ghosts or the 7th Saga, though I've heard good things about both. Can anyone attest to either?

I can finally join others in this thread:

PS3 160GB + 15 games

-Far Cry 3
-COD black ops 2
-COD black ops 1
-Battlefield 3
-Fifa 3
-Medal of Honor
-Little Big Planet
-Dragon Age II
-La Noire
-Batman Arkham City
-Deus Ex
-Skyrim
-The Last of Us
-MGS 4
-Uncharted 3

All for $160 , what do you think?

I am also supposed to be getting Tomb Raider, Assassin Creed II, Uncharted 1+2 , GTA 4 . Though I am not sure if he is going to give them to me, he didn't look like he cared much to search for them and I know the games are collecting dust at his home .

The downside is that there are games in there I will not play like Fifa 13, CODs, and Battlefield. There are other games that I was not planning to play and I wonder if i should just because I got them now: Dragon Age II , Deus Ex, Skyrim, Little Big Planet, Far Cry 3 which I hated on oXbox .

Not the deal of the year, but you did decent. Lot of solid titles though, you could sell off a few to recoop money since you do not seem interested in playing a lot of them. You may want to give Far Cry 3 a chance though.
