Hey everyone! Going to keep this short but sweet. Today I decided I wanted to buy some more games especially NES games in their boxes! My brother and I decided we really need the Mega Man's complete in box on NES to complete our Capcom NES collection. ALSO if anyone has an extra Mega Man 5 manual I would be willing to buy or trade for it, and I need a Complete Mega Man 1 & 6, so if anyone could help out that would be great. But today I went to what I am going to call my NES heaven store and purchased Gun.Smoke CIB, T&C Surf Designs CIB. Then I went to it's sister store and purchased Mega Man 2, 3, & 5 CIB. Then I went to CD Tradepost and purchased Mario Is Missing on NES Cart only, and Diablo in minty condition for PS1. My brother purchased a couple of Super Famicom games on eBay Monopoly and Sim City CIB. Today I purchased on eBay for $40.00 Mega Man 4 CIB. So anyways hope you all enjoyed this blog!!!
Here are the pictures and please comment!

Hello Fellow Gamers! My brother and I did a little more shopping today at a couple of our favorite stores. IF you haven't read the previous blogs please do so! We bought probably our last bulk lot of NES games for a while. Most of these titles are hard to come buy especially complete in the box such as DIE HARD & Metal Storm! We have spent quite a bit of money accomplishing something we are excited to have a good quality and quantity of NES games in their boxes. Sorry none of these are for trade or for sale. We might be getting rid of some loose games and maybe some games we have duplicates in their boxes. But anyways we went to a Comic store which sells a ton of video games and then we went to Goodwill's GoodBytes. We also went to Nebraska Furniture Mart so I could buy a bundle PS Vista! Now my brother and I both have one! And I also purchased a couple of games Army Corps From Hell & Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus. My brother purchased the system and a couple of games on the day it came out he bought the same bundle pack and the games he purchased were Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 & of course Uncharted: Golden Abyss. This month has been great and this lot of games is a good way to end the month. Especially with the boxed NES Games Die Hard, Mighty Final Fight, Metal Storm, Barbie (yes I said Barbie), Pac-Mania and a few others. Another side note my brother bought Star Wars on NES complete in box in an earlier blog from eBay and today he surprised me with the sequel Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back on NES complete in box! Also purchased from eBay. So hope you all enjoyed and here are the pictures please comment!

Also the Game Genie is Brand New Sealed.
Hello again fellow gamers. Today we got some more goodies in the mail and I went on yet another shopping spree for mostly unliscensed NES games. My total purchase at the store was sadly $262.00 ick but it was worth it! I am just waiting on one more package in the mail my complete copy of Deja Vu. Today I also got two liscenesd NES games Robocop 3 and Romance of the Three Kingdoms both complete in their boxes. My brothers eBay mail order today arrived all complete in box DuckTales 1, Chip and Dale 1 and Fester's Quest. Today I recieved another personal grail Jetson's on NES. So again I do believe this is the year of the Nintendo for our collection. Today my brother also purchased Sin & Punishment on the Wii brand new at K-Mart for a meer $13.00! While Game Stop still sells new for $40.00 and we needed the game because we have the Japanese N64 game Sin & Punishment complete in box in minty condition we purcahsed a long time ago. My brother also recieved in the mail today pretty much brand new Star Trek Judgement Rites Limited Collector's Edition, the VHS is still brand new and the game is limited number to 75,000. This game is in pristine condition! So here are the pictures please comment!!
Love NINTENDO! Especially NES!

Hello fellow gamers! My brother and I have done a ton of shopping the last few days and it invovles mostly NES games in their boxes! And above all else a holy grail was achieved with the purchase of Earthbound! with the Strategy Guide. Another achivement is getting Bomberman II complete in box in Minty condition! The last couple of days we started off with eBay purcahses. My brother bought Earthbound, and I bought Final Fantasy NES complete in box with everything, yes that includes the map. I also bought ISS 2000 for N64 complete in box in good condition! Most of our purchases were at a local store and they are all NES games complete in boxes, game boy games complete in boxes, and a couple of SNES games complete in boxes. We have decided to call this year in our collection the Year of Nintendo. Some of the games we purchased are even BRAND NEW!!! Most everything is in pristine to mint condition, some of the eBay NES Games we bought in their boxes fair to near-mint to so so condition. We also went to Gamers and purchased Starcraft 64 for a great price even though it's just the cart, anyone have a box or manual for sale? ;-) We also went to a local store called Game Vault and purchased Fire Embelm for GBA complete in box in minty condition along with the strategy guide. Some of the best finds were Toxic Crusaders complete in box, Star Wars (on eBay) complete in box, Act Raiser 2 complete in box, Romance Three Kingdoms II complete in box, GI Joe complete in box, among others!!! This has truly been a great find these past couple of days, and thought we'd mention it on Finder's Keepers because this is a haul of a life time for us and well we think among others as well. SO here are the pictures of everythying from all the stores, PLEASE feel free to comment.

KEEP IT REAL ON CHANNEL 3!
Hello Fellow Gamers! This is the second edition with updated photos of my brothers and mine collector's editions. We have of course acquired quite a few more since our last post. My brother and I have a huge interest in collecting collector or limited editions of all sorts of games. Most of our collector and limited editions REMAINED SEALED!! I know some of you are probably asking why buy them and not open them?? Well as a hardcore collector we collect anything and everything video game related with all video game collector's ultimate goals to own EVERYTHING! but that will never happen of course because there is so much out there and you need unlimited money to get it (I wish life had a Game Genie). We are just very into collecting these games because who knows at some point they could be valuable and we will be like WOW we have that. FOR EXAMPLE - we have the Fallout 3 Amazon Survival Edition it is out of print and one sold on eBay a while back for nearly $1,000. And guess what ours is SEALED! Some of my favorite collector's editions are Uncharted 3 (see other blog for that), Skyrim, Ace Combat 6, Fallout 3 - Lunchbox Edition, Records of Agrest War The first Release - The Naughty Edition, Halo Reach Legendary (SEALED) and the Hardened Edition (that one is opened for pleasure).
Collecting collector or limited editions is kind of a hobby on it's own. Where did it begin well I think they started back with Sega Genesis (who knows maybe further). On the Genesis the only game I have pictured and have three of but just the best one is pictured is John Madden Football Championship Edition. Then more modern you go to N64 with The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Collector's Edition which in traditional Nintendo from the NES Days is a Gold cart while the original release is a gray cart, which is the opposite of the NES. Special editions are a great addition to anyone's collection. I know some just don't care about collector's editions and some just collect games out of the box (traditionally for older games) too each is own. Special editions yes for one cost more but they just look so much better in your collection and two they just plain ROCK!
So I have about 18 Picture!!!! Warning these can cause heart attacks, seizures and severe fainting!

Hope you all enjoyed! Spread the blog around and leave some post!
Hey everyone. A while back I posted a blog about my strategy guide collection and hopefully someday we can add them on here. My brother is working on developing a site that anyone can upload their Strategy Guides, gaming magazines (Nintendo Power, Game Pro, Game Expert, etc.). Again this site is under development so once it is up and running we could use everyone's help to build a database (hopefully we can work closely with RF Generation). SO I promised a while back that I would post pictures of our Strategy Guides. But first a list of my favorites and our most valuable.
Favorites:
1. Batman Arkham City Limited Edition Guide
2. Kingdom Hearts 1 & II
3. Legend of Zelda - All the ones we have
4. All our official Nintendo Players Guides such as Final Fantasy 3 and Chrono Trigger, and more.
5. Secret of Mana
There's more but these are to just name a few.
Most Expensive:
1. Legend of Zelda Tips and Tactics
2. Lego Star Wars Complete Saga
3. Lego Indiana Jones 1
4. Chrono Trigger
5. Breath of Fire 1 & 2
Those are just some I could think of which are kind of pricey but there are some more.
So here are the pictures enjoy!

Hey fellow game collector's. I pre-order and picked up Batman Arkham City Collector's Edition from Game Stop on Tuesday. The game play is fantastic, it's a good improvement from Batman: Arkham Asylum. During the game you start off as Bruce Wayne, then turn into Batman, then you play a few levels of Catwoman. This is just for starters as I have yet to complete the game, but it will take a while with all the side missions and Riddler Trophies. The map is huge!! A great improvement is you start with some pretty cool items, you can take down more than one enemy at a time now, and you can counter on more than one person. Catwoman is fast moving and quite fun to play as.
Now on to the Unveiling, the Xbox 360 and PS3 both come with a Batman Statue in his crouch or pounce position, the statue is great and very well designed. When you open the box it folds out and you have the city at your hands as it looks (yes there will be pictures posted). On the back side of the opened case is where you find the art book and your instructions, one in English and of course one in Spanish, also it comes with a Batman Arkham City Catalog. But in the back of the art book is the game disc. Then in the front you have this drawer where all the bonus material is. The first item(s) are three code redeems 1. Play As Catwoman Download, 2. Batman: The Dark Knight Rises Skin 3. Iceberg Lounge Challenge Map. Then the next thing is a Beta test for Gotham City Imposters, then there is a Collector's Edition Exclusive for Batman Arkham City The Album. The Final Item and most confusing one at that: Batman Gotham Knights it says on the back of the Game Box its supposed to be Blu-Ray but I think it is a misprint as mine comes with a DVD (ANYONE ELSE HAS THIS PROBLEM FOR XBOX 360 Version LET ME KNOW!) honestly I think it's supposed to be the DVD because Xbox as we know doesn't support Blu-Ray Discs. But I guess there are some other issues. But I emailed the appropriate people to see if this problem will be fixed. Although I think it's kind of unique and cool to have an error.
Also I bought the hardcover Limited Edition Strategy Guide. I have the Batman Cover and there is a Catwoman cover out there. It comes with litographs. This guide is pretty cool.
Now here are the pictures.
