noise: nice grab on that flight stick. very, very good price and it's the best way to play ace combat on 360.
today i picked up 6 13" PVMs and 4 Extron RGB units for about $60 at a surplus auction. if anyone needs a 13" PVM, hit me up. (i still have some 20" PVMs i need to get shipping quotes for )
bummer of the day: was going to look at a non-working Pac-Man machine today for $150, got there and the guy said he had "just sold it" to someone else because he thought i wasn't coming. oh well.

Top gun- 3$. Also used in a pat the nes punk video, signed by him, all of mega 64, mike matai, brental floss and also smooth mcgroove.
I got a Game over poster from Brent and had it signed for 5$. I got Afro Samurai Resurrection DVD from the funimation booth. Last thing I got was mega 64 shirt.
And all those good memories for the 45$ ticket!

Haven't been really into finds for a while, but my Wife was able to make a pretty sweet score tonight. She has been checking out Facebook sale postings, and came across a Gameboy Advance SP with charger for $10. The lady then tells us as we are on our way that she found another gameboy and she will do both for $15
Turns out to be a black, and silver SP (001 model, front lit) and a charger. The black one needed a little cleaning but looks good, the silver is pretty scratched out on the outside, but looks good inside. Really awesome score for a great price, so proud of my Wife for catching this deal!
$3 Goodwill grab. First DC game I ever saw at my local store too, hidden amongst the music CDs. Case in perfect shape, disc is very good. VGPC prices for CIB are currently $10-$15.
Yeah I've actually seen a ton of DC games pop up. They're usually sports games but when it's something interesting(even if I don't have a dc yet) I try to grab them. It's kinda hard to pass something like that up when it shows up there Especially since it seems that dc, and gc are both rare finds there especially one that's not one of the more abundant sports games here
My gameroom My systems: NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube, Wii, original gba, gba sp(001), ds lite, 3ds, vita, psp, PSone(101 model) ps2, ps3(320gb model), ps4, retron 5, and Dreamcast.

went to a biker party last night and a lady had several totes of old toys for kid prizes. course my mom is director for our region so she knows the lady real well so I got these for free.
^ Sweet. That TMNT one with the different shape brings back memories. I'm trying really hard not to start collecting those lol. Someone had a NiGHTS one at a flea market and I'd never even known one existed but I passed for fear of starting a collection because I know I wouldn't play them, like ever. They're really cool and nostalgic though.

Every GC game I've seen at my Goodwill were missing the manual or the disc has been jacked up. I see PS1, PS2, Xbox, and 360 titles there all the time. It's also a good place to find PC titles disc only and big box versions. But a DC game that isn't a throwaway sports title? Heck yeah.

OK day at the garage sales. GameCube with 1 controller, all hookups, and a Mario Party mic - $10 Uncharted: Drake's Fortune - $5 I'm just happy I finally got a GameCube. Had a chance to pick one up 2 years ago with Smash for $20 but passed, and have been kicking myself ever since, especially because I don't buy online and the only GameCubes that go up for sale in my area are from people who want $50 each for them and charge $25 each for controllers. At least now I can finally play my only GameCube game and easily my most treasured piece of my collection: Mary-Kate and Ashley Sweet 16: Licensed to Drive.

Exactly they're almost always ps1, ps2, and xbox for me. With a few 360 ones thrown in here and there. But gc and dc, like i said is hard to pass up I think I already have at least 3 or 4 dc titles because of recent spots. Those never started showing up until recently which is a shock. The gc ones I've seen before but it's usually a madden title or something I'd rather not see on a rare occasion(was shocked when I saw soul calibur II a few weeks ago...had to jump on that one )...
