Thursday morning niceguy1283 and I hopped in my car and headed out to Lincoln, Nebraska.  Plans were to hit up a a pawn shop, a couple Gamers locations, and the two Game Room stores. 
I came across some decent stuff and and splurged a bit at the end of the trip by picking up a XBox 360 S 250GB console for 199.95. Felt like a good deal to me.

I didn't sort out the items by location found when I was taking pictures, but meh.

First up we have Jurassic Park: The Chaos Continues CIB, and Street Fighter II Turbo on the SNES.  Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: the Arcade Game on NES. 
Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War on XBox,
Neo Contra for the PS2, Championship PRO-AM and Sonic Spinball on Genesis. 
Ending with Earthworm Jim 3D on N64.

Next couple images are the results of me recently playing Halo and Halo 2 on the original XBox and wanting to see where the rest of the games went story-wise.

Here we have Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Edition,  Halo 3 limited edition, Halo 3: ODST, and Halo: Reach limited edition.

The Halo: Reach limited edition I picked up in a trade with niceguy1283, as well as the items in the image below.  Doom 32X, Mario is Missing NES, Super Mario Bros/Duckhunt with manual.
You might be asking yourself, "Why didn't he have this common freaking game?!"  I didn't have this. When I originally got my NES back in 1985 it was bundled only with Super Mario Bros.
Last but not least, Pocket Bomberman on GBC.

We came across a Mass Effect Limited Edition at our last stop of the day for the low price of 59.99, he wanted it, and I wanted his Halo: Reach. 
Sure, the Mass Effect is more than likely worth more than the Halo, but I have all the Mass Effect games on PC and don't care enough to get them on console now.  So to me it was an even trade. 

I picked up some PS3 games, but somehow managed to forget to take a picture.  Guess that doesn't really matter, they're newer and they're like belly buttons.  Everyone's got 'em. 
Uncharted, and Uncharted 2 GOTY, as well as Metal Gear Solid 4. 
Bought a later model Genesis control pad also.  Hopefully it's one with the redesigned D-Pad mechanism, my original "red letter" pad is feeling a bit mushy.

All in all, it felt like a good day of hunting.  I probably spent more than I should have at the end of the trip, but at least I'm all caught up to the current generation of consoles!
