A batch of games off a Japanese Ebay shop. Yeah, some of them are crap, but they were mega cheap.
Hit the jackpot at the bootsale this morning:
Finally found Chiki Chki Boys and Die Hard Arcade for reasonable prices! I already own Super Fantasy Zone, Bio hazard Battle, Panzer Dragoon, Saturn Bomberman and House of the Dead but these were in better condition than mine (the Fantasy Zone is mint! OM NOM NOM.)
I also got Wario World Shake yesterday, I'll take a photo of that with Samba De Amigo and De Blob when they arrive.

Man, those Saturn games look like they're in fantastic condition! Whenever I find Saturn games at markets their cases are almost always completely buggered up. ='(

Yeah, same here. I still have a wreaked copy of X-Men Children of the Atom I want to replace. These have some minor scratches here and there, but they're otherwise really darn good. The Mega Drive ones are also in shockingly good condition.Infernal Monkey said:
The Saturn Bomberman is in one of those earlier style cardboard cover boxes, which is odd as i thought they replaced those with DVD like sleeve covers from 1997 and my original Bomberman is in one of those. I seem to find quite a few quirky versions, I have two Saturn games with Sega-Ozisoft stickers on them, and another with one of those now infamous german rating stickers (only much smaller, of course).

What the fuck is up with that Hotel Dusk repackaging? Looks ridiculous now.

Forgot to post these. Got them on Monday & Tuesday respectively.
NIC was bought because the one built into my mobo died. Only cost me $2 at Fry's.
Alone in the Dark was $10 on sale at Gogamer. I figure it's at least worth a shot at that price, because even with the bugs and such I've heard there are some pretty good moments in there. If all else fails, there's the rumored patch coming up to fix all the crap.
VP:TiP and AC:FA were both had for 30% off at GS through the use of Edge + 20% coupon.
Now if only I had time to play all this stuff I'm getting good deals on...

Its Touch Generation rebranding, released at a lower price point, back in print...that is what the fuck is up with it. And do you seriously care what the packaging looks like on the shelf? This is no worse than the shitty "greatest hits" packaging that plagues every single platform.

I don't usually post in this thread, but I just had to share.
First off a little project today. 2 new shelves for some of my games. I liked how it turned out (never done anything like that before), so I'm going to buy another. Here's how the first one turned out.
Second is a portion of my Wii pickups this month plus a Wireless Mighty Mouse. I didn't like the mouse at first, but it has grown on me. Wario Land was everything I was hoping for and more (I kept a total media blackout on the game). Emergency Hero was a $20 piece of shovelware that made me play it to completion. Worth the $20 and not a bit more.
And here's the big boys.
So my friend told me several weeks ago that he wanted a Super NES again. He said that he had a friend that was probably going to sell him one for cheap because he needed the money. He also said he had some games that were worth some serious money. I didn't really believe him because neither one is a good judge of a games value. But I went on and told him Tuesday to go ahead and buy the set from him and I'd probably buy most of the games from him. Long story short, I got a call from him this morning and he started telling me the games that he had no interest in and I could have if I wanted them. Holy crap. I didn't believe what he was listing off...
He also got a WWF game and Zelda:LTTP for $40 with a SNES with no controllers. I told him to come over to my house with the games and he'd leave with a SNES controller, a copy of Super Mario World and a $50 check. Sure enough he was at my door.
And I didn't even tell the best part about the games:
Every game is complete in box & cardboard insert and in great/mint shape--no rentals here. The only things that I think I'm missing in most of them are the precautions booklets, Nintendo Power ads and the plastic dust covers.
Included in the lot:
Illusion of Gaia - Instructions + World Map
Breath of Fire II - Instructions + World Map
Breath of Fire - Instructions + World Map + Enemy/Item Guide
Secret of Evermore - Instructions + World Map + Poster/Square Catalog Thing
Secret of Mana - Instructions + World Map + Strategy Guide Card
Chrono Trigger - Instructions + 2 Maps/Posters + Registration Card
Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals - Instructions + World Map + NP Ad + Precautions Booklet + Registration Card
Lufia & The Fortress of Doom - Instructions + World Map
For the record, no these are not for sell (Chrono might be, since I already had a loose copy of it, but I haven't decided). And I know I paid him more than what he paid, but we're friends and he knew that Chrono was worth $100+ alone because I told him. I also got a couple of extra SNES, NES, Genesis and Playstation manuals like FFIII+World Map.
I'm still in shock.

Ledsen said:I was going to say how you must be a really nice guy to rip off your friend like that, but then I read that part... wow, your friend is fucking awesome
Yeah, that's why I offered him more because I felt bad...even for the guy on the other end that he bought them from. He's came through before with some OK stuff before (last time it was a loose copy of Super Metroid and a beat-up copy of Final Fantasy II), but this time...well it'll probably never be beaten. And for the record, we really are that cool. I gave him my N64 a month or so ago because he really wanted it to play NBA Hangtime, he was my best man at my wedding, and he still owes me $30 from 6 months ago...but we hook each other up. He just doesn't care to play those types of games and would rather me have them than make some serious change.

Great SNES pickups. Most of those games are amongst my favorites. I could never afford them as a kid, though
. I rented most of them or borrowed them from friends.People complain about the Square tax in regards to DS games, but for SNES games it was ridiculous. I remember Chrono Trigger costing 80 bucks. My parents thought that was too much for one game.
