The Small Scores Thread: Part 3!

[RetroRage]

Did said "milkshake" bring all the boys to the yard? And is it better than mine?

I think most milkshakes are better than yours

Banana milkshakes are the best!

I don't think I like the sound of that...

Here's some junk I picked up today.  $2 a piece.

Woah watch what you're calling junk buddy.   

[Boshamp]

Damn, ANOTHER one of you that was able to snag a couple old Pokemon titles on the cheap...lucky.

If you really do think them junk though, I could find a spot in my collection for them.

[Zagnorch]

I think you read that wrong.  He paid for a milkshake of me and my wife.

No, you wrote that wrong. You said he paid for YOUR WIFE and YOUR MILKSHAKES.

I shoulda added a  or  to my post let you know I was bein' a smartass.

I wrote it awkwardly on purpose because I'm a wordsmyth.  And because he really did pay for a milkshake of my wife and I.

My grammar nazism is very passive-aggressive.

Does the battery backup still work on the Pokemon game boy carts? I've yet to find a Crystal or Silver Version at a thrift that had a working battery backup.

ANYway, it's off to bed with me. Got a few things to show you tomorrow. Don't worry, it's not all Skylanders stuff...

[zcrich01]

I checked four more Genesis titles off of my list yesterday.

Risk (CIB)
Earnest Evans (cart only)
The Ooze (cart only)
E-Swat (cart only)

Slowly but surely making progress.

[Zagnorch]

HEY NOW!!! Man, this has been the week that just keeps on giving. I'll start things off with my latest Skylanders pickups, just to get it out of the way:

I took advantage of a Toys R Us promo, combined with some gift card credit and a rewards coupon, and grabbed the 3DS Trap Team starter pack along with Fizzy Frenzy Pop Fizz, and the Mirror of Mystery adventure pack featuring Deja Vu:

And now, some stuff you actually might care about:

This lot of N64 goodies, including a CIB Super Mario 64 and StarFox 64, along with a loose Majora's Mask, set me back $40.

Found another cache of magazine back issues at the local Savers, this time mostly Official PlayStation mags with a couple PSMs and an EGM.

And before I forget:

The CIB PS2 / Wii games Shadow of Destiny, RTX Red Rock, Target: Terror, and EyeToy Sega Superstars were $2.99 each. The CIB PS1 games were $1.99 each, and the CIB 4 Meg Dreamcast memory card with PC link set me back four bucks.

Moving things right along:

The three mags and DK Country GBA guide were $0.29 each, and all the CIB Xbox & PS2 games, which included Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie's Revenge, Conker: Live & Reloaded, Spartan: Total Warrior, Haunted Mansion, Evil Dead: A Fistful of Boomstick, and Disgaea 2, were $2.99 each. I also found a Ys I & II Chronicles Musical Selections soundtrack CD, a berry GB Color and a Universal Retracta-Cable which lets you use a GameCube or XBox controller to play your PS2 games if you feel so inclined.

And that's it for now. Any questions?

Number 494....

[singlebanana]

Picked up CIB copies of Jeanne D'Arc (PSP) and Luigi's Mansion (GC) yesterday. Two stores in my area had copies of Jeanne D'Arc, but neither copy had a manual. I waited it out a few months and finally one came in. Luigi's Mansion was a game I had before, but used it in a trade. Glad to have it back.

Jeanne D'Arc is a pretty halfway decent game. I grabbed mine CIB for a buck from a guy that had a bunch of boxes of crap that he hadn't gone through. I scrounged around and found several games in his junk that day.

[zcrich01]

Oh, and last night I picked up complete in box copies of South Park for N64 and Sonic Advance 3 on GBA. Prices were reasonable, like the 5-7 dollar range as I recall.

As the sites biggest Jeanne D'Arc fan, I have to compliment your pickup. One of my favorite games in the genre.

Good to know, I had heard good things. Never really played any tactical RPGs if you can believe that, but I thought I'd look for a decent portable game to start out.

Picked up a CIB copy of Hook on the Sega CD today.

I've been wanting to add a repro to my collection for quite some time, and when the opportunity came up to trade for one with Flee, I jumped at the chance. Now that I've broken the seal so speak I have at least one other repro on the way.
