After recently getting my first ever Nintendo console, a Gamecube, the Nintendo bug bit. :evil:

Picked this lot up today all from the same guy. :D

He also had this Atari lot which I couldn't help but buy. :)

The blank cart is a game called Boing.
£100 for the lot, not a great price but a fair one I think.

On the way home my brother phoned me and told me his mate had come good on a load of old Nintendo consoles and games he had in his shed.
He said it includes a NES, SNES, N64 and about 35 games, all for free. :shock: :D
I'm tempted to make the 100 mile round trip to pick it up instead of waiting 2 weeks when my brother is due to visit.

Also got Shenmue 1 + 2 off ebay for £17 posted.

Some amazing and decent finds mixed together:

Seeing a garage sale on craigslist that listed a "sega genesis portable system" I figured they were talking about a game gear, it was unlikely to be a nomad. Well after searching for the sale I found it and saw a Nomad sitting on a shelf with a carry case, rechargable battery and a plastic extra case to use AA's instead of the rechargeable pack. Asked the kid how much and he said $5. Almost broke my arm getting the money out of my wallet. :shock:

picked up the following at some stores near by:

Paper Mario (n64) - $5
Project S-11 (GBC) - $3
TMNT: Fall of the Foot Clan (GB) - $3

Dreamcast system alone - $3 (turned out to be broken but good parts)
Duke Nukem 3d - Kill 'a Ton Collection (unfortunately only disc 1) - $1
Got to one of the stores a little too late seeing a guy checking out with two japanese playstation games. :?

Hair dryer to warm up the glue on the stickers and take your time.

Trip to the local used bookstore yielded F-Zero GP Legend (GBA, CIB) for $4.95 and Zombies Ate My Neighbors (SNES, cartridge only) for $5.95. Has anyone played Zombies? I played it with a friend once and it was pretty fun...
