Video Game "Look what I found"

Pick Axe Pete.

I played this game quite a bit back in the day. It is obviously simple being an O² game, but being daring and ducking under boulders is fun.

My grandmother worked at the Magnavox plant, so my sister and I had one of those growing up. The only other game I remember having was the Pac-Man rip off, there were more but nothing else pops out.

Marvel Vs Capcom t-shirt I got in a trade.

Never thought I would find Sega Master System games at Goodwill, and wonder if there were more that got snatched up already, as i've not been there in a week. Being that the games were in two different locations in the store I scoured the place, and came up with Fantasy Zone w/box and manual, and Ghost House w/box, $2 each.

That's awesome. I have Ghost House too and love the box art. A hand holding up the game. Great job, Sega. I see a lot of people hate on the game, but I think it's pretty good. Especially killing those weird brown spherical people that breathe fire at you.

If anyone wants to sell me Powerstone and a Dreamcast controller for cheap lemme know.

Whoa which Goowill did you get that at? All my local Goodwill use Sharpie instead of those nice stickers

The one in Mebane. The one at Burlington uses these stickers too. The only other NC Goodwill I can think of is Hillsborough, but they use ugly permanent marker there. So I guess it's luck of the draw.

I only go to the ones in Wakefield and Wake Forest and they use permanent marker. They sometimes have decent stuff, the best things I've gotten there were my Dreamcast with two controllers and memory card for $20 and my Genesis with two controllers for $15. Lately they haven't had anything good though. The Wakefield one is cleaner/better than the Wake Forest one.

The one in Mebane was pretty awesome the first few years it was open. Most amazing thing I found there was all the Zelda CDI games, complete. I got a big chunk of my Genesis collection there as well. Past year and a half there was a weird lack of anything good... just sports games or lame stuff like broken XBOXes or bare bones Playstations.

The ones in Burlington were similar (I believe there's two... one might actually be in Graham, I'm not sure) . Found Super Metroid in one and a boxed Model 1 Sega CD in another. But then they seemed to 'dry up' or something and I can never find anything.

I know this is really far away from Youngsville but I've also had a lot of luck at the Buckhorn flea market on weekends. There's at least one guy who always sells games and a lot of random folks who show up with systems and games. The most epic find was this Hispanic guy with a box full of random Sega and Nintendo carts, he was letting them go for $3 each. I ended up getting a whole pile of stuff including Contra Hard Corps, Castlevania Bloodlines, all three Donkey Kong Country games and some other stuff I can't remember. Granted for every awesome find there's a lot of overpriced junk and wasted time but the persistence pays off.
