The Small Scores Thread: Part 4!

[Bear78]

Here's some stuff from various countries I got in the last couple of days.  Really excited I still got the book with Ketsui even though I didn't pre-order it.

Ha! Your pickups looking a tad like mine. I also got the booklet with my Ketsui, and the fun sucker thing with Ice Cream Surfer. I'll have a great December pickups video to show you all later!

- Sega Pico with box for $9.79! Fun fact: if you take two Pico consoles and connect them to the end of a nice long sturdy handle, you 'll have yourself a surprisingly effective melee weapon!

But don't take my word for it, just ask Sonic's scariest stalker:

Here is a few pick ups of mine:

Start studying those manuals to prep for the 2019 NES challenge!!

I'm jealous of those deals Zagnorch has been getting... The N64 even has it's memory expansion cover in place!

[Cryptid Collector]

Worked out a deal for like $80ish worth of Wii games I didn't have for $45 on Facebook (Mario Galaxy 1+2,  New Super Maros Wii, and Brawl being the major highlights) that I've been told are all in mint condition so I'm gonna go pick them up in the morning.

Those major Wii titles are hard to come by locally around these parts so I'm glad to get those glaring gaps in my collection filled for a good chunk under retail and in a personal sale where I can actually confirm the condition before making the exchange.

Sadly, it didn't include a memory expansion pack... or a corresponding clear red controller. However, I think I can use a North American controller and expansion pack, so no worries there. In fact, I think I can play my NTSC games on this machine, so long as I can get past the difference between the notching of NTSC N64 carts and that of JPN carts. Our very own Blklblskt did a blog about this very thing several years back:

http://www.rfgeneration.c...NTSC-Nintendo-64-1727.php

However, I'm hoping I don't have to go so far as to mod the console. Gonna see if my N64 GameShark will be an adequate pass-through...

Here's the damage for $45 (the guy was another collector, apparently but more into Nintendo 64)

[img width=700 height=525]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DvHnQnHUYAAD8wT.jpg:large[/img]

Mario Galaxy: 1+2: CIB
Metroid Other M: CIB
Worms (this one he threw in as a bonus): CIB

Brawl: paperwork but no manual
Harvest Moon Magical Melody: No manual
Mario Bros Wii: No manual

I paid well under retail even with the missing books (which I can likely easily replace and still be under at $8 per game) so I can't complain.

Edit: Brawl was the one I was most concerned about the missing manual in (it's most valuable thing in the lot at $15-$20 retail and the one I wanted the most) and a seller with good feedback has a manual for $6 shipped so I ordered

[img width=700 height=263]https://i.imgur.com/QAMgbAw.png[/img]

That still puts me at $14 for the game and if it's fake I can always contest it with Ebay.

That's a great find!

[Crabmaster2000]

That's a great Wii lot!! I know Other M isn't beloved, but I liked it. If you haven't played those Mario games yet you're in for a treat. They are all fantastic

I've actually never gotten my hands on a Mario Wii game around here unless you count Super Paper Mario so that's one of things I was really excited for in this lot.

Got this in the mail today

This is something I had no idea was even produced until I saw it for $45 with Prime Shipping on Amazon and it's oddly a lot more extravagant than the Sonic Mania record with two full discs and and a lyrics sheet that has artwork on the front.

Early Christmas at my house this year! A local collector acquaintance I've dealt with many times in the past scored this at a thrift store in town recently and passed on a decent deal to me. I havn't had a chance to sit down and clean it up yet, but I should be able to pretty it up a bit more before it hits my collection shelf. It's been a huge month full of Atlus pick ups for me. Makes 2019 feel like I can maybe finish up my Atlus collection to the point I'd only have to keep up with the current releases!
