The Small Scores Thread: Part 3!

[Shadow Kisuragi]

Tadpole's been here a while guys - he even has an N64 collection blog. How many do you have left now? Also, aren't you back in the States now?

@Tadpole: Welcome to the site, and with that score you're going to make a lot of friends real quick here.

Thanks,  as mentioned from Shadow Kisuragi I have been on the site for a little while.  Funny thing is I still do not know how to find the small scores thread.  I have the linked saved to my favs so I just have to access it that way until I figure out the way haha.

Wow. Tadpole that is nuts. Congrats.
It really did catch me off guard when i saw this for sale.  I don't want to get into to much detail on the price but I was a little hesitant, but I am super happy I went ahead and bought it.  Like 3 people tried to hop ont he deal after I was already talking to the seller.

so many good scores but tadpole wins the internet today
I did not know you could win the Intenet.  But I will take it haha

Shadow,  I am 12 games away from the CIB N64 set.  It is a pain getting some of these last ones but I am patient.  Nope,  I am not back in the states yet.  Still over in Italy until February,  still not sure where I will be going next.  So maybe I could come back to the states?

Well, after that the refuse that I picked up seems even worse.

So the TRU clearance is nearing it's end and everything was 90% off (and I believe it's 95% off now if the clearance is still active), so I went around to all of the TRUs in my area and grabbed any video game thing that was left.  Everything in these pictures was 9 cents to $2.50.

First up are a bunch of toys.  I bought another Pac-Man plush, but I have no idea where it is.  I think it might have not made it into the bag.

and a bunch of really bad games that are physically impossible to get excited about.  But they were all $3 or less.  The DS skin was 9 cents and the screen protector was 20 cents.

And I forgot to include this in the other pictures I took.

So after that terrible group of games, I decided to cleanse my palette with a couple of games I wanted to pick up for a while.  Also a GTA 5 guide because it was cheap.

And finally to round up this edition, I picked all of this up from thrifts and a local flea market.

I've got two huge stacks of games and stuff sitting on the table behind me right now that I need to take pictures of, so I'm sure I'll be back here with more uninspiring shelf filler soon

Well thanks to Boshamp I finally have access to the Small scores thread.  I now have it saved in my favorites so I can post this, where it should.

I just received this massive original Nintendo haul CIB in the mail about a week ago and I am still pretty excited.  I believe it is just over 460 different titles so now it is just the process of going thru each of them and adding them to my Rfgeneration account.

I saw Silent Service in there so you can go ahead and stop collecting now as you have obviously struck gold already. You will fit in just fine here.

Never heard of the good lol.  Is it any good?  Do you enjoy it?

I don't know if it's any good, but it seems to be part of a in-joke here. I'm not sure why.

I'm sure I'm leaving some stuff out, but basically at no point when the NES was still current did anyone on Earth have Silent Service.  Think back to your games and all of your friends games.  Do you ever remember seeing that game anywhere but the rental stores shelves?  Yet despite that, the game is EVERYWHERE.  Therefore there must be some sort supernatural explanation for the fact that you can't turn over a pile of games without finding a copy of it.

Also, every Ebay auction or Craigslist ad says it's SUPEROMG RARE HARDTOFIND!  So it must be true.

[nupoile]

And a little something I thought the Collectorcast fans might appreciate.

Gold Silent Service! Awesome!

I had one of those once, I hear they are quite rare.

That is great.  I just looked at my loose games and I already had a copy,  I guess I never really thoguht to much about it.  Now I have two copies haha.  I just looked up gameplay and I am not to impressed.  So it might just become a shelf ordament lol

Sauza's got it. Silent Service must be an aberration in the space/time continuum that somehow began infinite replication of  the game until is eventually ends up in everyone's collection.

Silent Service was the Philadelphia Experiment.

[Cryptid Collector]

Maybe there's a alternate universe where it was the pack-in game(their equivalent to Mario/Duck Hunt) and copies keep phasing into our world?

I DID see a copy once but my gaming budget was running dry and I decided I rather spend the $4 on something I actually had interest in.

Don't worry Shoboni. Silent Service will always be there, waiting for you... watching.

The moment he goes to find one now they will be hiding from him and near impossible to find locally
