Traded in two games for credit at the local retro store. Walked out with Pokemon Snap and an N64 Expansion Pak for $20.

I can finally play my copy of Majora's Mask....a few days before the remake comes out.

Got Legend of Dragoon on PS1 yesterday evening for free at the on-base thrift store. There was a sealed (likely resealed) copy of Prince of Persia: Warrior Within for GCN too, but I figured I'd just take the one I'm actually going to play.

I stumbled across this guy last night selling older gen video games in a mall. He had a few tables set up with boxes filled with older games, mostly disc based but some cartridge. He was asking $15 each on the cartridges, which could be good or bad, depending. After digging through many Madden, ESPN and Bases Loaded games, I haggled and ended up with these for a total of $40.

Nights of the Round (SNES)
GI Joe: The Atlantis Factor (NES)
King's Knight (NES)


This guy seemed to know his stuff so how Nights of the Round slipped under his radar, I will never know. Maybe the generic label?

Finally got my penguin. $8.00 via ebay. Seems what others are asking is insane for these considering I was the only bidder lol.

My other clone I got in china was thinner than I ever thought humanly possible and broke after about 3 uses.

It is. I saw them at mall kiosks back when they were new and I see them at flea markets often. That looks so much better with grey controllers than the red one I have. But hey, mine was given to me for free so I can't complain too much.

Thank you Kmart. I just need to borrow my friend's truck. They also gave me a ton of free displays, placards (some from the 64 era), and props. It's been a good day.
