Nice! I got my copy for $11 when the local Kmart was closing, but $3 is awesome. I'm still waiting for my store to mark a few other games down. Unlike the stores Fragems frequents, the managers around here seem to be stingy with their discount prices.
Oh, and you should keep a lookout on the Pro controllers if you're wanting one (or two.) My local store still has them at full price, but another one I went to had them marked at $37.
No picture and it only cost me $4 which probably wasn't some huge deal, but I've NEVER in all my years around here have ever seen a stack of Famicom let alone Famicom Disk System games but tonight I have. I feel bad about not pilfering the other FC games but I just picked up a complete in box copy of MAPPY. The other titles as I recall should all be launch or nearly so titles the US got too (but given the lame NES market the FC equals cost probably 1/3 to 1/2 the cost.) I may just go back and snap them up, and I would too on the FDS if it wasn't for the fact I can not use them. I saw some quality ones in that with a couple Ultraman titles and some other stuff too.

Wait a sec... if it already has component output, why do you need the HD retrovision cables?

Neat MacSE, AQ! Lode Runner was a popular game on this platform. The SE also had a good port of Pac-Man.

This particular one does not have component other than, as I discovered, via those Retrovision cables.
The guy that I purchased them from makes a few different variations of that board.
It's currently out of stock now but this one here has component out:
I went back for the other 4 Famicom games, $4 ea -- Namcot Famicom Baseball, Nintendo Tennis, Dragon Quest 4, and Rambo. I figured why not, also looked at the FDS stuff, also $4/a but I have no player. Once they clearance them out for a buck I'll buy them if someone else doesn't first. I'm familiar with all of them anyway and they're nice, would validate ROM usage at least.
Haven't posted in a good while, but here are my Tuesday finds! First thing, well the only thing in the morning from the fleamarket was gundam battle assault 2 for ps1. It’s missing the manual, but for $2.00 I still think it’s worth it. After work, I went to salvation Army store, where for $3.00 I got a Batman dvd, some old musical dvd a graphic novel and some DS lite screen protectors. I’m most likely going to resell those things. I’m going to sell stuff in a convention in a few weeks, so this stuff is selling fodder. Anyways, that’s a post for another day. Went to the mail, I picked up Blade Dancer PSP, it was an online order. It was $8.44, sad thing was it had no manual, but oh well. Then it was off to gamestop, where I got Duke Nukem ps4: $17.99 and Danganronpa ps4: $24.99. I got this quite cheaper because I had a gamestop coupon that took $15 off. I’m happy with this. Finally the last purchases were from Target. They have a bunch of clearance games right now. There was more games I wanted, but I was getting a bit low on funds. I still have to go to the Wednesday fleamarket. So I ended up with Mirrors Edge catalyst ps4: $9.98 and One Piece burning blood ps4: $14.98. I’m quite happy with my ps4 additions!

Well a find from mid last week I'd pull a picture for but don't want to upload it so it's text.
$10 got me a Black Wii, black Classic Controller Pro, all the hook ups for the Wii too, but no controller/chuk. Another $7 got Tiger Woods 2012 'Masters.' At a second and third store I picked up Wii Sports Resort for $5 and a Wii Motion Plus adapter mismarked for $4.
Ultimately this got me after looking off/on for awhile now, back into wishing to own and use a Wii. I had some spare remotes/chuks around (2 sets) so it was usable. Decided after having a beater I wanted a nice low/if any use one again. Using a bit of coupon, luck, and also ability to flip a few items I was able to find a basically nearly new in box Black Wii (same model) New SMB Wii+SMG Audio CD bundle along with a thrown in blue wii motion plus and 3 games (yet another of that golf game, then sealed dancing and zumba 2.) The owner of that one got it for his wife, she used it like twice, dusted it off a couple times, then put it back in the box so it was basically >5 hours use or so.
Going to sell the original Wii, one of my sets of wiimote+chuk with it so it's complete. One maybe both of the golf (I want to honestly try it first), and the 2 sealed games. I had a $20 discount coupon from ebay as well. In the end I'll be able to break even on what I put out and have a very nice free setup to get started with.
And then over the weekend I was able to nail down a sealed Super Mario Galaxy 2 (original release) and sadly a broken SMG1 game free I'll have to replace. Also bagged Klonoa at gamestop for $20 (ebay retails $35-40) so that was a happy moment. And finally was able to snap up steelbook (not a scratch on it and complete) Metroid Prime Trilogy for $45 shipped online.
That fairly well wraps that up for now, very good week.
