They're both complete (the NDS game even has the Safety and Wi-Fi booklets) and I got the pair for $10 total.

Full retail on them is around $15 total so I didn't do to bad or overpay.

Trauma Center is really good if you havn't played it before.

So I got a mystery box of Genesis from Ebay.  They wanted $40 with free shipping, I offered $30.  I figured even if it was all sports It would be worth it for $2.72 a piece.

Remarkably, I only had 3 of these.

Screenshotted a tweet I made because I'm to lazy to re-upload the images.

I did pick up a CIB PS3 copy of Guitar Hero 5 (game only) for $2.39 so there's that.

This completes Wonder boy for me.  The box is a dupe if someone is interested.

Welcome to my world, good sir. If you’ve gone thrifting as long and as often as I have, you get used to it. I can’t even begin to estimate how many times I’d see a vidya of interest on the shelf, only to open it up and find either no game at all inside, or a whole ‘nother game, usually a sports title. Hell, I’ve occasionally experienced this with games that are locked up in the display case!

Fortunately, I didn’t encounter this problem on my New Year’s Day Goodwill tour. Spanning eleven Goodwill stores and three other thrifts over the course of eight hours and 125 miles, this little crawl yielded a decent handful of vidya scores:

Let's take a closer look, shall we?

- LoZ Link shield, $4.99 $3.24: It has a few scrapes and scratches, but otherwise looks just fine.

[img width=640 height=549]https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7873/46542094912_5a1509363e_z.jpg[/img]

- Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage, $3.99 $2.59

- Wrath Unleashed, $2.49 $1.62

- Sealed cut-out Nobunaga's Ambition: Sphere of Influence Ascension, $12.99 $8.44

- Region-2 Anima: Gate of Memories with soundtrack CD, $20.00 $13.00: This was an interesting find. The case sports a PEGI 12 rating, and the disc sports a PEGI 12 seal, German USK 12 seal, and Australian ACB M rating. This game can get around, apparently.

Aaaand my last vidya find:

- CIB PowerA Legend of Zelda enchanced wireless controller for Nintendo Switch, $16.35 $13.08




I even encountered a game of the non-vidya kind for a little over $3.00:

And now, a little something for RF Gen's resident Scooby-snack-swilling dairy deviant:

Setting me back a hair under $4, the Phantom Force computer has a pretty cool gimmick: the computer-- which is named Chessica, I $#!+ you not-- will move its own pieces when it's its turn.




Oh, and I musn't forget our beloved Pacific Northwest-based sonic aviator:

Whelp, that's it for now. Hope y'all had a Happy New Year; I know I sure did.

I'm sorry to tell you but you will be disappointed with Contra Force.

Picked these up at a local video game "flea market":

Rainbow Islands was $4 but a friend owed me so I paid nothing.  The CD-i games came to $6 but the guy said give me $5.  The manuals came to $10 but the guy said give me $8 and threw in the cartridge protector for free.  Star Wars was $10 but they guy said I'll give it to you for $7.  It wasn't a bad day.
