Pitfall II for 50 cents. Not the greatest deal, but it was at a gamestore that usually prices their games right or slightly over. However, all Atari games are 50 cents if they are cartridge only.

It's 50 cent so you can't go wrong. You will spend more on candy :lol:

I was at a garage sale a few weeks ago and picked up an N64 with a controller and 9 games; carts only:
Paper Mario
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
Ms. Pac-Man
StarFox 64
South Park
Star Wars Episode 1 Racer
WWF: No Mercy
Wrestlemania 2000
All-Star Baseball 2000

All for $15

Last week I picked up:
Sega GT/JSRF Combo (Xbox) - $1
Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone (PS1) - $1
Radio Shack Armitron Robot; came with all pieces including instructions and box. $3 - I had one as a kid.

I've also missed out on some stuff - SNES and 13 games for $10 and 9 games from the N64 haul because I didn't get there in time.

Oh well, there is a whole bunch of summer garage sales left to go.

Today is an EXCELLENT day for my N64 collection.

International Superstar Soccer 2000 (!!!) - 7.99
Clay Fighter Sculptor's Cut (!!!) - 7.99
Resident Evil 2 - 7.99
Waverace 64 - 2.00

I was surprised that I found ISS 2000 in a small sized container of slightly overpriced games. That pawn shop puts up Craigslist ads every once in a while to move some stock. I was originally going there because of a boxed Super Mario 2, Super Mario 3, and Dr. Mario for the NES for 10 each, but they didn't have them. So I looked at the N64 bin, and voila! A gem. Then I went to another pawn shop down the road and saw Clay Fighter and wanted to hand my money over real quick.

And then it's a good day for a couple other systems too...

Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES) - 4.00
Street Fighter II Turbo (SNES) - 4.00
XIII (PS2) - 2.00
Psychonauts (Xbox) - 2.00
Timesplitters: Future Perfect (PS2) - 9.99

I only payed that much for Timesplitters because I had to go to Gamestop. We wanted to play it immediately. :P

I usually never come across any amazing deals, so i'm overly joyous when I do find them!
I recently saw an ad on craigslist for the following:
7 Atari Jaguar Games:
Dragon (Bruce Lee)
Alien vs Predator
Doom
Skiing and Snowboarding
Cybermorph
Iron Soldier
Trevor McFur in the Crescent Galaxy.
1 Atari Jaguar PRO controller
1 Atari Jaguar Standard Controller
and as a bonus he said he'll give me a broken jaguar with hookups for free (doesnt turn on, in the process of trying to fix it)

All this for $15. I almost thought it was too good to be true :)
Nintendoes what Nintendon't!
