Also, Ringu 2 and Hi Hi Puffi Ami Yumi DVD's for my daughter. Everything else is off to various Marketplaces or an ebay auction near you! EDIT: I forgot, I'm keeping that Contra PS1 game as well. Awesome! Edited July 11, 2008 by SpendTooMuchOnAtari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep and I already have one so this is for sale. I actually had about $8 credit at the store that I bought these two DS games so I did pretty good. I think a complete Clubhouse Games brings around $40 IIRC. I sold a cart only not long ago that I found at a thrift for $15 and I think I got close to $40 for it. I love thrifts, swaps, pawns and what have you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+FujiSkunk Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Bookman's? I hate you. Why hate me? Because you have a Bookmans and I don't. I visited Phoenix and a Bookmans a couple of months back. That place is classic gaming heaven. I loaded up on Genesis and Saturn games, and even picked up Defender for the ColecoVision. Now I'm back home and stuck with ten zillion Gamestops. I hate you.

shadow460 Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Today's find: Final Fantasy 8, non GH, no manual for $25. Oh, it's the PS1 version. If I ever see the PC version in the wild, I will probably soil myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickHarrisMaine Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Star Wars KOTR: The Sith Lords, XBox, complete, minty condition, $6.00 at a pawn shop With last weeks pawn shop haul of Silent Hill, Parappa the Rapper, and Parasite Eve, I turned them on amazon and paid for my son's birthday present, a shiny new (used from the bike shop, but in awesome condition) blue Diamondback mountain bike. 7 whole gears! The little 9 year old dude is thrilled! I'd have liked to have kept all of these games, and I bought them all for my collection, but when I checked on Amazon to learn a bit more about them and saw the prices they were getting, and well, my kids birthday was on the way..... I probably would have been scared of Silent Hill though...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gulag picture radio Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I have the Miracle keyboard, and the carts for both NES and SNES, but I've never found the special cables to connect it to either system. One of these days I guess that I'll have to find the pinout and make my own... I don't really even know how fun it is. I already play piano, so I'd just be wanting to see how those systems teach kids to play. Gotta be better than Melody Blaster for the Intellivision II keyboard!

HayakawaKen Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Finally, after a few months of not being able to go out, I hit a couple of flea markets today. I came home with Starship Hector for $3, which was fantastic because it finishes off my NES Hudson Caravan collection. I also found Little Ninja Bros. for $3, and Illusion of Gaia for $4... so overall not too bad a day, but I still wish that my area had more to offer in terms of flea markets and goodwills.

vrocko Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 (edited) Hi all, Nothing major and not Atari but went to Circuit City on Saturday and they had the limited edition of Prey for the Xbox 360 on sale for $16.97, got to the register and it rang up as $13.94. You get the art book and two lead miniatures with it. Not a bad deal for $14 bucks. Rich Edited July 14, 2008 by vrocko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerGnome Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 (edited) Anyone remember Green Jello....they had to change their name to Green Jelly because of some sort of lawsuit with the actual Jello company. I thought this cassette was cool because it was "pre-lawsuit" odd you should mention them. They've actually got quite a large tour going on, and IIRC they're stopping out by me later this month. I really don't want to go, but it might be fun to peoplewatch and figure out exactly who shows up to a one hit wonder reunion tour. Remembering back, they did the soundtrack to at least one of the spiderman beat'em ups on snes. I really think I would have hated those games were it not for green jelly. indeed odd, I was playing the CD this weekend at the brewery! still have the cereal killer video album thingy. sorta the west coast GWAR. I didn't know they were still around.. better look into it. hey they're on tour and coming to town! might have to check that out Edited July 14, 2008 by BeerGnome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickHarrisMaine Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 nothing major, just picked up a nice boxed Pelican DDR Pad for the cube, ps2, and xbox at goodwill for $1.99 this was the second goodwill I hit today, after some little emo dude was getting ready to drop $20 on a Genesis 1. I passed on a clean looking PSOne and two controllers, and all cords for $12.99, just didn't want it, you know? Do you know they play Dance Dance Revolution at my kids school on rainy days? They loved it when it was tried there. I've never played it, but I figured the pad was cheap enough, now to find a DDR game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
