The Small Scores Thread: Part 3!

[MaterialHandlerMike]

Was happy to point out that Bayonetta 2 came with both discs. I was too busy playing E.V.O. to pop the game in. These were my game pickups from Eb games yesterday:

SMT: Devil Summoner:SH and Bayonetta were new. The other two were used.

This year I've had little to no success at garage/yard sales. Well, over the weekend I decided to give it one more go this year and hit up a garage sale across the street from my apt. Walked up to the table, and saw a game boy game in the box on top of another box. The game was Simpsons Bart vs the Juggernauts and was complete in box, including the plastic insert that holds the game...underneath was a boxed original gameboy. The box was in absolutely perfect condition and included the foam, the headphones, all of the paper inserts and the manuals for Tetris and Tetris 2 (as well as a game boy that was a little rough and had no battery cover). I picked the game and the game boy up for 3.00 together.

My game boy from my childhood is still in superb condition and I have my original Tetris, so I have a complete in box game boy now! Also, this find reinvigorated my appreciation for yard sales after a slow sale season.

Nice grab on the Gameboy! Those are not easy to find CIB

At first glace I assumed those posters were overlays for the Odyssey console, is that weird?

I got some Skylander stuff today.

Beating that joke to death eh?

.....I'm actually okay with that








So, PRGE. I'm finally getting around to posting something about it. If you're waiting for the blog, don't worry! It's coming, might even have a video of my own in it.

The best part of the show was hanging out with Fokakis, RetroRage and Mrs Rage. We spent a good bit of time together walking around the show, trying to get each other to buy stuff.

I'm sorry I missed seeing Mechblue though. We'll have to do better at the next show. Part of the trouble was I was planning on being there both days and wasn't. We had something come up and ended up not being able to go the second day. The second day would have been less crowded and made it easier to find each other.

I was also planning on doing most of my buying on the second day. After walking around and looking at everything I decided to put off buying until the second day to hopefully save some money by getting better deals from sellers wanting to get rid of stuff. I was so going to clean up on INTV games   


We did manage to pick up a few things though:

A shirt for a family member moving up here to Oregon

Some very nice, complete INTV games I may have overpaid for slightly, I'm going to try and get most of that library. Two PS3 games I'm going to send off to Japan for a friend (along with some others). They were 4 for $10 along with the Big Brain and Lego game.

And, what you've been waiting for, laser discs!

[img width=700 height=381]https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3945/15018052223_4f235f3c27_o.jpg[/img]

I found No Escape and the Criterion version of Goldfinger. Fokakis was way too generous and brought me the rest. Buckaroo Banzai, Silent Running (Japanese version), and two Pink Floyd concerts. I'm excited about all of them but the Pulse one is going to be great, I have the concert on DVD already and am pretty happy to be able to compare the two mediums. Thanks Fokakis!








This stuff we found yesterday at a thrift store for about $2

[img width=700 height=1141]https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3936/15452235467_b31d6feecb_o.jpg[/img]

I'm not sure if this counts as a new console for me or not, while I did look around the store for games to go with it, I haven't looked into it too much. I already have a Vtech handheld but it looks different   

And another strategy guide. Hey why not? Everyone else seems to buy them.


And +1 for milkshakes!

@nupoile, nice finds, I have said this before, and I will say it again, I love Imagic box art. I was definitely not going to need those  in my LD collection, so I am glad I found someone who would appreciate  them.

Very nice grab and price on the Heavy Sixer!

Crabby was more than happy, for me, to take some sports titles off his hands. Got some other goodies as well:

Was a "Great" day for some sports titles.

Does that Heart of Darkness have the 3D glasses?

[GrayGhost81]

Got some goodies in the mail today, and it's only the beginning of the results of an ill-advised internet shopping spree last week. Senran Kagura and Silent Hill for Vita are from Amazon. Pilot Wings and Falling Stars are eBay, as is that little cable on the top there, which is a workaround for the unforgivable design flaw with the otherwise awesome GBA SP. It's a headphone adapter. Now I'm excited to play some of the games I've been adding to my GBA collection of late.

@nupoile: Those Pink Floyd LDs are awesome!

@GrayGhost: ...but... there are no Vita games?

I have to give a very big thank you to nupoile for being kind enough to pick up this NES homebrew from PRGE for me. I'm a sucker for this stuff, and it's really great when buddies can help you get things when you can attend. Thanks again!!!

It's been a while since I posted.  So, we begin with trades/arrivals from other members.

WildBil repaired a Sega CD console for me, and returned it with some extras for the extras I sent him:

I traded the working SCD and other stuff to a local collector now on the site for these:

And I contacted Douglie007 about some pricey manuals that he needed.  It turned into a large trade that excited us both:

I'm going to start placing a lot of random stuff on my FS/FT thread, so stay tuned.

And good night, y'all

At least it has a headphone jack!

Unfortunately, No.

Thanks to singlebanana, I checked another genesis cart off my list. I now own Raiden Trad, which brings my Genesis game total to 313.
