EricBall's Tech Projects - Flee the flea

[RSS Bot]

Saturday my wife declared she had suffered enough cabin fever and declared we were heading out, preferably to a flea market in the area. She was looking for Premier League jerseys (ideally an authentic Joe Cole Chelsea blue), but I was keeping my eyes peeled for stuff to add to my Nintendo collection (although I've given it up for Lent, 'cause she convinced my son to do the same). I think I saw two booths with used games and premium prices. My target price these days is C$10 so seeing stuff three and four times that price doesn't inspire me to search.

 

But another booth had a small selection but better prices. When I went back for a better look I didn't find any games, but did pick up a Super GameBoy for C$8. It turned out that the stock was from a local Cash Converters, so we drove over there to see what they had. There were a couple of N64 games (Paper Mario for me, Mario Golf for my son) but they were both over my target price so I gave them a miss. Surprisingly they had a display case full of VCS games, though it was a little wierd to see the huge number of duplicates. (I mean 2 or 3 of a title I can understand, but 10+ Defenders?)
