The Small Scores Thread: Part 3!

[Sirgin]

I bought GTA 4 on PC for €9.95 and Walking with Dinosaurs (wonderbook) for €19.95. I'm quite happy about the Wonderbook game, because it was the bundle that came with the PS Eye and Move controller.

Loving that Arkanoid box Bil!!

King's Quest V and Heroes of M&M are pretty sweet as well!

[MaterialHandlerMike]

First thing that went through my mind when I saw the Arkanoid box: " Dis iz VAUS!!!??!!?

Got told by some fans of the series, that Heroes of M&M III, is the best of the entire franchise.

Hey now,

Holy crap, I didn't know they put out a Pinky and The Brain game! Yet another one to add to my hunt list. Almost worth trading fifteen pounds of Legos for... 

ANYway, the past few days have been pretty prosperous with the handheld hardware & games:

- Platinum GBA SP with manual, Naki home & car chargers, stereo speakers, carry case, link cable, magnifier, headphone jack, & two lanyards

- Loose Max Payne & Medal of Honor: Infiltrator carts

- Loose NES Classics Pac-Man and Konami Arcade Advanced carts with manuals

- Loose fuchsia GBA with Taz-Mania 2 cart

- CIB Konami Classics Series Arcade Hits, Rainbow Islands Revolution, Honeycomb Beat, Lost in Blue 2, and Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs DS games

All that set me back about $55.00.

- Red "heavy" DS, $4.99 $3.99: You can read the tragic story of this unfortunate bit of ill-fated hardware here: http://www.rfgeneration.c...splantation-Tale-2851.php

- GoldenEye N64 cart, $5.99 $4.47

- Sealed Interact 16MB memory card for GameCube, $0.99 $0.74

- Action Replay Games & Music Micro SD adapter thingy for DS

- Prima Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds guide, $0.99: I thought I had the game for this particular guide, but it actually turned out to be Force Commander I had in my possession. Eh, I'll probably pick up Galactic Battlegrounds sooner or later, anyway, so no big.

- Yet another BradyGames Secret Codes book, $0.99 $0.74: Just when I thought I'd collected them all...

- Totally Haunted Kids: True Ghost Stories, $0.69: as you may have guessed, I was drawn to this book by its cover, depicting a pair of skeleton hands playing what looks like a mashup of Tetris and reverse-Break-out (Break-in?) on a platinum GBA SP much like the one I picked up later in the day:

Yep, just like the one I-- hey, wait a minute.

Gotta get a closer look at my GBA score pic:

Oh sh--

[Banards]

It's been tough to collect for the Turbo around here, so I was super suprised when I saw this a Hu Card hiding out at the local Exchange. And its actually a great game!
Looking for a case and instructions too.

Turbo Grafx stuff! I'm loving it!

South Park: The Stick of Truth Grand Master Wizard Edition PC

The Cartman Figurine is 6″ (15.2cm) and the box includes a Map and the Ultimate Fellowship Pack.

Snagged Super Mario Galaxy 2 for under 10 bucks thanks to someone pricing it as SMG 1 instead of 2. The guy at checkout noticed when I was leaving, I personally think $9.99 for SMG 1 is still a pretty good deal. But 2 is supposed to be 29.99.

Also snagged a few more PS1 titles in WCW Mayhem, Croc 2, and CTR (GH). All a buck each.

[MaterialHandlerMike]

A small batch of games I grabbed from Game Quest the last couple days:

Devil May Cry 4 makes 50 PS3 titles in my collection, and with the first one, I just need to grab DmC to be caught up on...well, DmC.

Was glad to see Shenmue and Skies of Arcadia show up at Crabby's store. I had to replace the Shenmue jewel case though, as it was literally falling apart on me.

[Shadow Kisuragi]

Stopped at a new store, and didn't pick anything up, but the selection...
If anyone's looking for something rare, let me know. As examples:

NES: Zombie Nation, Le Roi Lion (Lion King, French, PAL Exclusive)
N64: ClayFighter 63 1/3 Director's Cut

The prices are a little higher than what I'm used to, but quality was top notch.

EDIT: Since I was asked, the prices tend to average out to what I felt were eBay prices + shipping factored in. Things I asked spot-checked seemed within eBay norms, and it seemed like he was looking up eBay prices for comparisons when I asked about some of the higher priced items. Not that I have a problem with that, necessarily, because I can just buy off eBay if I don't like the price/quality, but I prefer things in-hand.

[GamerNick]

How much for zombie nation?

[Shadow Kisuragi]

Didn't ask - it was behind a case with no price sticker on it, as were most of the rare items. It seems they like to get up-to-date prices whenever someone asks, as when I asked about the rare games they said they prefer to use them as display items rather than sell them. I spot checked a couple things, and they pulled the prices directly from eBay. I may be over there again soon, but it's literally across town - 45-60 minutes away if I use toll roads, 90 minutes if not.

ClayFighter was mentioned at $210 (cart), Romance of the Three Kingdoms III at $29.99 (CIB), Resident Evil Pure Evil Pack $90 (CIB)

Assume eBay going price, but high quality guarantee unlike eBay where you can't inspect it... and they take trade-ins, so I could probably arrange something with that.

EDIT: Hardware prices seemed a little high to me there, thinking about it, and before someone asks - no 3DO, TG-16, or SMS titles. Mainly the bread and butter stuff.

[MaterialHandlerMike]

How much for zombie nation?

I'm going to guess: $250

How much for zombie nation?

If so, that's way over even eBay pricing. Lots of them have been going for $155-$175 as of late.

[singlebanana]

Well, I had an interesting day. My local game store was doing a little redecorating and had a few marquees in their FS bin. This was what I deemed the best of them. Classic!

Also, a little game on my wishlist came into the same store about a month ago. The owner was holding it for me to look at and wanted to clean it up and determine a price for it before selling it to me. The top of the label is very rough, but at $75, I couldn't say no...................
