Video Game "Look what I found"

[mas]

I went to savers just for the hell of it to try to find a wii guitar for guitar hero and I found one of those famiclones that looks like a playstation. Its called the virtual interactive console or something of that matter. 2 controllers and a gun and a multicart for 2.99.
The best part of the deal was when I got home to test it. It had the usual clone games like Mario, contra, most of the black label nes games, galaga etc. But as I looked thru this these games I never seen on those clone crap and they look and sound pretty good.
super Mario 3
castlevania
contra
super contra w/30 lives awesome
dr. Mario
excitebike
ms. pacman tengen version
paperboy
flinstones dinosaur peak( I saved 400.00)
double dribble
double dragon 1 and 2
So far for that price its well worth the 3.00 especially since I don't collect anymore and it does play famicom games. Not a bad day for me. I will look more into it but so far great games and It says 80000 games but really maybe 100 or so.

I got this stuff today at the local fleamarket.

Prototype 2 strategy guide $2.00

Sega Genesis Ms. Pacman and Mystic Defender Both have boxes. Mystic defender has a messed up manual. But $4.00 for both of them was good!

Persepolis and Robocop 2 DVD $2.00 for both.

PSone console. controler and cables with box, $20.00. System is very clean and looks to be used very little. The box is missing the cardboard pieces to hold the playstation in place. But that doesnt matter to me. Its my fourth PSone! But this new one is the nicest of the bunch. Beforehand, I had to piece the other two together from stuff here and there.

On Wednesday, I went really late to a different fleamarket and they was very little stalls left. One guy was giving stuff away for free. I filled a bag with lots of music cds and dvds as well. And I got these video game things: Sega Smash Pack 2 for PC, oXBOX ESPN 2K5 new in wrapper, PS1 Rugrats Totally Angelica CIB, PS1 Disney's The Little Mermaid II game and manual. Yay for free!

Great haul Gooseberry, that's what I'm talkin about. I cannot frickin' find the original James Pond anywhere.

As for Craigslist, I almost never see old games on there anymore. There are guys that post every day "I WANT YOUR OLD VIDEO GAMES!!!" so I don't know if people are responding to those or what but all of a sudden there are no cart-based games on Craigslist around here.

I have always been irritated with people who list these sort of want ads. I have become friendly with some other collectors in my city and they share their CL purchases with me on Facebook and they get a lot of stuff dirt cheap. One of them picked up Conker, Paper Mario, and a bunch of other pricey N64 games (maybe $400 retail) for $50. I asked him how he got it because I never saw the ad and he told me he was one of the guys posting want ads so the guy contacted him.

As scummy as it makes me feel, I tried this recently but all I get is people wanting to unload N64 sports games for ludicrous prices and people demanding I tell them specifically where I find my games. It's pretty entertaining to read some of the emails I get, especially when 90% of them are some form of garbled English (can no one these days put a proper sentence together???) that I can just barely understand. I'd rather keep away from the nut jobs and stick with thrifts, fleas, and community trades.

This is the main reason why I have pretty much given up on my NES/SNES/Genesis/N64 collections. There is nothing to be had, and if I wanted to pay $50 per game, I'd use ebay.

I've actually been contemplating dumping my cart collection, and focusing on $2 PS2 and Xbox games. LOL.

Flea market trip today got me all this for $60. Sorry about the bad setting, I just moved here. I don't have furniture yet.

Got these 2 Sony t.v for $30 dollars. The silver is a Sony kv-36fs100 with matching stand and the second one it's a Sony kv-36xbr200.
Great deal I think but Damn they both are heavy!

Definitely a good deal, comparing it to what I paid for mine it's just as good of a deal. Let me guess a goodwill deal? I'm almost certain if they had those they'd probably list it at that price...

Very nice, you have both the HD and Non HD tubes! Any reason why you bought both styles; was it for Lightgun support on the SD and newer consoles for the HD CRT?

Xbox Hard Drive Upgrade Guide is being worked on!
Can now run a full version of a demo on this disc and no, its not just Conker!

Wii Pikmin 2 Sealed New - $19.99 Retail Store
Not posting the store in this Thread, but you can PM me for the secret location. Please, no resellers! Let all our members get a crack at this.

I love your posts CRT! Curious, I don't quite understand what you're talking about with your XBOX post. Are you working on a guide for upgrading the HDD? Also, what do you mean about running a "full version" of a demo? Maybe I'm just trying to get more out of what you said than what you were going for? Either way though, let me know more! LOL.

And as for your second quoted post here, you sir are a gentleman and a scholar. That is the single most awesome thing that I've read anyone say on this board. To hell with the re-sellers! If this board supported +rep or anything like that, I'd send you all I could this very second. Glad to know that I'm not the only one who feels this way, and although I seem to get chastised every time I bring it up here, I'm still going to feel this way until the day I die. There is a special place in hell for re-sellers.......

Thanks! for the kind words. I hate resellers who buy games just to attempt a marked up profit, especially not breaking a seal and even playing the game themselves!

I just checked and the store was out of stock, some bastard reseller must have bought the other fourteen copies!

I sent PMs to all that asked with a link to the store in question with a possible (though long shot) alternate search method for stores near their location. I hope someone lucks out and posts back good news. I regret now not buying a few extra copies to sell at cost including shipping.

Yes, I am working on a Guide for the Xbox Hard Drive upgrade, I'll leave the tease about the demo disc mentioned until I post the Guide; other then saying look thru the disc contents (unlisted in the cover) for the reason why a modded Xbox is needed and no I did not crack the demos to full games.

PS2 Momotaro? - $5.00 BookOff
Another "PD COPY" and also pristine CIB inside. I think this is part of the quirky Momaotaro Board party games, but not positive. Any of our Japanese reading Members can enlighten me on this game?

Says 'Gacha-Roku.' Title makes me think it's a board game with gachapon-esque player pieces, as it appears to be a portmanteau of 'gachapon' (capsule toys) and 'sugoroku' (board games).

I know nothing else about it, but I wouldn't think it's part of the Momotaro Dentetsu series, as it appears to be by SCEI.

THANK YOU! Your description is exactly how the game plays! A Google Search confirms there is a part 2 put out by Sony as well. The play the board while traveling thru Japan is different.

Still curious about the "PD COPY" acronym, in case any one else has seen this. Could just be the one BookOff store since all have the same style of writing?

I always like to see a Harvest Moon game!
