Hey now,

Inspired by xtincthed's Top 5 Video Game Finds of 2012 thread, I thought I'd get this year's edition started.

I'm still going through my scores from 2013, myself; there's a lot for me to choose from. In the meantime, why not reveal your five biggest vidya pickups from the previous solar circuit?

Picked up this Pikachu GBA SP for a couple of bucks, then sold it.   I regret it now,  these are really hard to come by

Traded in a bunch of systems and PS2 games for Pitfall and Lunar 2.  After the trades I spent somewhere around $17 total for these

Sold a bunch of duplicates and shiz on ebay, made enough to buy this sucker locally.   Getting a copy of MMX3 has been a goal of mine since i started collecting 2 years ago.

And this is probably my greatest score all year.  $6 at a local thrift shop.

Here's to a more successful 2014!!

[img width=640 height=480]http://s24.postimg.org/uqmhmqmfp/IMG_20140103_00364.jpg[/img]

Pickup 1: The Sega Megajet $170ish (foreign currency)
Pickup 2: Boxed Bomberman SNES Multitap $20
Pickup 3: Bootleg Alien Soldier $5
Pickup 4: Bootleg Metal Warriors $2.50
Pickup 5: Bootleg The Lion King 2 FREE. I told a friend I was game hunting in jakarta and he dug this out and gave it to me.

This was an awesome year of bootlegs for me haha. Found a few bootleg games I probably wouldn't pay the retail price to own. Best part is I found it all in the wild.

My turn:

Miracle Piano set for NES, $39.99: Had everything but the box. My big end-of-the-year score.

Epoch games: I started my modest collection of Epoch goodness with a CIB Japanese Excite Boxing plug-and-play set ($2.99), continued with a CIB Barcode Battler ($4.99), and culminated with Moonaker Fats sending me the Galaxian Galaxy II[/i] tabletop arcade game just for the asking.

However, that wasn't my only Top 5 pickup that was actually multiple pickups based on a particular brand...

CIB Sega hardware and accessories: It all started with the Dreamcast keyboard pickup ($19.99), and then the Dreamcast fishing pole controller ($14.99) less than a week later. The Game Gear goodies were part of a big ol' $100 bag of GG swag I found late in the summer. Rounding things out 'round the Yuletide was a boxed Dreamcast ($39.99), and PODS game ($3.50).

ClayFighter: Sculptor's Cut, $1.99: I'll let this one speak for itself.


Aaaaand now...

I finally joined the ranks of the "cool kids" on RF Gen when I picked this up, with more than a little help from Techie413.

BTW if you've picked up Silent Ser- errr, the submarine game in 2013 and you aren't making it #1 in your Top 5, then you really ought to be ashamed of yourself. GTFO of RFGen right now and don't ever come back, you lowlife.  :grrr: You're worse than someone trying to convince me that the mini SNES is real... but not quite as bad as a Wavebird defacer.  :P



'Late

Only two things are coming to mind that i have pictures of:

Banjo Kazooie NFR cart

EDIT:

Thought of a third but I don't have a picture for it. I have a brand new, sealed copy of the limited edition big box Full Throttle. PC Version.
