My find of the weekend was courtesy of my brother finding an Atari 2600 box in his grandfather-in-law's attic. Had the 4-switch system and a ton of manuals (including the system manual. The search for the games is next.). I don't need the system as I have a heavy sixer that is in nice shape. His findings did yield two joysticks that looked brand new. Still had the orange ring around them. Gave him $5 for one.

That's a pretty decent price for an SP honestly. I'd be happy to find one for that much.

Haha, sweet. I thought I got a decent price but wasn't sure. Helluva surprise when I saw it though. Still wish the person who was selling MSH hadn't sold it at a garage sale >:(

Super Mario 64 $7 (cartridge only) (I overpayed but only because I was so frustrated at NEVER seeing this game for a cheap price...)

PSX Medievil $6 (complete) (Again...a bit more than I wanted to pay but Ive wanted it for a while)
PSX Strider 2 $6 (complete) (Ive heard this was really good and fairly uncommon?)
PSX MGS VR Missions $6 (complete) (made a bit of a mistake on this one...I thought it was worth a lot more...but it goes for 99 cents used on amazon...)

Disk only:
New Super Mario BRos Wii $3
Smash Bros Brawl $3
Ps2 Baldurs Gate dark alliance 2 $2

Goodwill after:
Mario Kart 64 $3
San Fran Rush 2 $3 (dont know why I got this lol...)
Good picks on Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 2 and Strider 2.

I think you'll really like Strider, it's a solid game.
Definitely. I've been looking for a decent priced copy of Strider 2 for a while now.

I found Rollcage for PS1 for $1. I can't believe I never played this before, it's so good. It's got a weird signature on it though, I have no idea who's it is or if it was just somebody marking their game. It certainly looks like a signature though. Can't read it.
