Comes with cover and tin, game, bonus DVD, manual, mini-comic book, a collectible dataDyne card, and even has the Samsung ad still in it. The clerk, thankfully, went looking for the bonus disk when he didn't see it in the envelope and I'm going to do the survey because of that.
Which collector card number did you get? Thanks for reminding me, I need to pump up my search to get the remaining cards. Most of the Perfect Darks I bought were missing the outer sleeve, but all are complete inside including that Samsung Pefect Dark afiliated ad. At least I did find two with that outer sleeve.

I got 2|9.
Systems Owned: NES, Sega Genesis (Non-TMSS), Game Boy, Game Gear, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis (Model 2), PlayStation, N64, Sega Dreamcast, GBA SP, Xbox, Playstation 2, Gamecube, Xbox 360, Wii, Playstation 3, PSP, Nintendo 3DS
I decided to hit up a couple of Goodwill's tonight since I want to sleep in tomorrow then go Yardsale/Flea Market shopping. I hit 3 (wanted to hit one more but it was closed by the time I got there) and everyone I got something good.
Gamecube: Super Mario Sunshine, Sonic Adventure 2: Battle & Luigi's Mansion: $6 total- All complete (even the inserts are in them) and disks are very nice. I'm most likely going to use them for trades in the near future or give them to my sister since I have both Super Mario Sunshine and Luigi's Mansion (I don't have SA2:B but I do SA2). I got them for a bit less then that because I brought a TV Stand for my tube TV for my Atari 7800 & NES system (so I can play Duck Hunt again) using a 20% off coupon (allowing my total price to go over $20) since my parents are donating a bunch of stuff to Goodwill because we are cleaning out the attic.
Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon- $15 dollars. Fully complete but it seems someone dumped glitter inside of the case. I should be able to clean it out soon but the game works perfectly. The Club Nintendo code even still worked. THAT was a huge surprise.
Original XBox System- $15 dollars. It came with two controllers (but later on found out one controller is missing the break away cable since the controllers were taped together with the plug and cable), the DVD remote kit and one game hidden inside of the system (Madden 2004). Honestly I never got an original Xbox nor do I have a 360 and I'm not planning on getting a Xbox One. I've been thinking of picking up one for some time since there are a couple of games I've been wanting to play but I didn't really want to spend that much on the system. I know the online system doesn't exist anymore but I'm not much of an online player anyway. It seems the system was there for a long time and the price was cut because when I got it home to clean it up I saw a marker on the top of the system that said $30 3-20 on it (The whole thing was taped together, the plug, controllers and DVD remote) but it had a sign that said $15 which is what I paid for it.
I also got two Dreamcast games (NFL 2K1 & 2K2) to pretty much fill in the missing spots from my collection, which were $2 a piece but the cases were not damaged with the NFL seal on it so that was good.

I was at the retro store yesterday and an old man was asking for a Godzilla game for PS2 for his son and they didn't have any in stock so the cashier asked me if I knew of any monster related games like it so I told her the only ones I knew; War of the Monsters etc. Problem was that I was sweating and nervous because I wanted to get my hands on that $20 mint copy of Battletoads/Double Dragon for NES from the showcase.
The only thing I was able to find on the wall for the guy was Peter Jackson's King Kong. But it was only $3 so I thought it would be a good cheap game for the kid. It's not bad at all for a game based on a movie.
I wish I had pictures of what I bought right now, but I'll post them later. I also got Super Mario World for $9 from there and a PS2 bundle from Goodwill for $24.99.
Came home with some decent stuff from the flea market today. I was happy fo finally have found a couple fo PS2 games I have been looking for since around 2007 - Mr. Mosquito & Disaster report ($5 each). Also pretty happy to have found a complete copy fo Dynamite Headdy adn Fatal Fury 2 (with a torn up manual) for $5 each.
Everything else is nice but not the most exciting stuff. I got the N64 & Mario Kart for $25. I found the controller later in the day for $4.
Surprisingly, I've been finding a lot of Intellivision games over the last few months for really cheap. They were $1 each so it was hard to walk away from them even though I'm not the biggest fan of the system's games. All had the instructions and overlays too. All the Dreamcast games were $1 each too.
I got the Game Gear and Lynx stuff for $25. The Lynx doesn't work and the speaker on the GG doesn't output sound so they go into the pile with the others I've been holding off on fixing.

So I show up there and right away I get stung. "A guy came earlier and took some of those games you wanted." I politely say, "Oh, I thought you said I was going to be the first one." Pause...no answer, so we just move on into the kitchen. Apparently the guy scheduled to come after me squeaked in just before, even though they said 5 was the earliest ...never mind. I'll move on.
The boxes have already been opened and games are strewn across the kitchen table. My heart sinks as I know instantly that all the RPG's and high calibre titles I wanted are long gone. I lost out on some BIG titles: Secret of Mana, Final Fantasy III, ect. I forced myself to move on and clear my head. This fellow has invited me into his home so I owe it to him to be polite and respectful no matter what.
I'll spare you the rest of the details. Here's what I got. Ignore the price stickers in the pics. He's a former seller and was just getting rid of old inventory. We settled on $110 for everything. Considering he admitted being a former seller, that's a VERY fair price as I'm sure you'll agree.
Anyway, I'm happy to have gotten something out of this. It was fun to say the least.

Man, what a dick move. At least you got over it enough to buy whatever items he had left. I would have been like......"Really?" and left without buying anything, even if it meant walking away from the 2 portable Zelda titles. But that's just me.
Yeah sorry to bring the mood down. But you know, a couple of portable Zelda titles and a Pokemon game I guess, a Banjo Kazooie, Pilotwings 64, and a TMNT Tournament Fighters is good to have.
