R/C Stunt Copter

Atari Flashback £5

Stealth Assaut by Radica, 1998, £1

Nice Finds!

R/C Stunt Coptor is one of the best, the difficulty in this simulator is what makes it a great game.

The first Flashback gets bad reviews, I like it since it is the only of the Flashback series to include a few 7800 games.

Never seen that Stealth Handheld, Radica certainly puts out some unusual stuff.

On my latest flea market trip, I found not one, but TWO Gryomites with Famicom adapters! Both were in a reseller's box of bargain bin games. Me & a friend each took a Gyromite for $5.

[Fragems]

Found 2 games worth picking up at one of my local good wills. Found Air Combat and Twisted Metal for the PS1. Twisted Metal is the carboard longbox version but is missing its manual and Aircombat is CIB in a jewel case in a jewel case longbox.

Only catch was they charged twice as much for the games for no apparent reason usually game discs are $2 but these were $4 a piece plus the clerk harassed me acting like i stole them since "those are supposed to be in the front case not with the cds" .

Also got burned at another goodwill they were selling bagged lots of discs in the back and I picked up 3 small bags which had 3 discs each. They were mostly PC games from what i could make out but there were two PS1 games mixed in. They both happened to be old NFL Blitz games but they had complete cases so I didn't exactly mind especially at $3 a bag. However when I got around to opening up the sealed bags I came to find out they were just the cases wth.

I swear, I've hit a bit of a dry spot as far as 'finds' go. But I did manage to finally spot something this week and at Goodwill of all places. Harper's find must have brought me luck.





It's so hard to find anything gaming related in the wild that still has decent cardboard box. I already have Warioland 4, but the rest are new for me. The only one that's really 'complete' is Rayman 3. The rest are missing their little 'safety' manuals, but do contain their gaming manuals. Everything is in pretty good condition too, though it looks like Tak had a nasty run in with something that temporarily mistook it for a chew toy

$3.16 each


Not too shabby. Try as I might, though, there was sadly no Shante cart to be found behind the glass display. Better luck next time, I guess

You must have very large hands!

I object!
Not very large hands, no.
The thing is, despite all the flak it gets regarding it's bulky type size and whatever else, it's not really an uncomfortable controller to use. At least I don't feel it is.
Kind of like the Jag controller. In my opinion, I tend to think that it's mainly those who have never used it that find fault with it.

I actually have used the Duke before, though it's been a long time. I think my biggest issue personally is button placement. The d-pad blob isn't very nice either.
