Really June 2013 pickups already!

[shenske]

Holy Jackpot Batman! Would you possibly scan a few of those for us and/or open to trading any of those duplicates?

Yes and yes- I haven't done any scans in the past but would be open to trying to get what you need. I haven't went through and tested/verified contents for everything yet on the games but what were you interested in?

Picked up Game & Wario and the Limited Edition release of Project X Zone. New retail stuff isn't as exciting as retro finds.

Oddly, the box for PXZ's LE release is sideways: Taller than it is wide. You've got to turn the case 90 degrees to put it in.

My uncle in law use to own a few arcades back in the late 80s/early 90s- he also had some NES systems hooked up to TVs in addition to the arcade machines. A lot of duplicates but some great pickups. Also got a few NES systems not pictured,

HOLY NES GAMES BATMAN!!!

my lonely and humble acquisition this month :T


I just love the first Epic Mickey, even with its undeniable defects.

Just picked up Project X Zone LE myself yesterday. Almost grabbed Games & Wario too but decided to hold out a little bit.

Haha I also just picked up Project X Zone it's on its way from gamestop. Wasn't going to buy it but seems obscure enough that it may be hard to track down a physical copy down the road, plus it's gonna convince me to buy a 3DS console, well between this and SMT: IV its hard to not buy a 3DS.

Pickups been slow, Spent most of my money on a new laptop, about $1800 or something. It was custom orderd, more info when it arrives.

I learned a fun fact about Gamestop, I was in there talking with the clerk, and he was opening used games that did not sell, and marking them used for a way cheaper price. Apparently they can not mark NEW games lower than the MSRP, so they open them and sell them as used for a cheaper price.


Also got this at Game Stop for $3, I'm good at figuring out what is in the blind egg things. I have all 3 links from this set, the PH I got when it was in its own line, the SS one above does not fit properly on the base.

I also got Taz-Mania for SNES at Goodwill for $1.60, had a whole stack of crap sport games, only non-sport game there.

Probably a good idea to pick one up now too because the Limited Editions will probably only be produced for the first run editions and are of no extra cost! Great game too so far!

If it is you should try to redeem it. Reading your question, I was reminded of this 90s guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rPa-IzbJzM

I agree, if you even have a hint of wanting it nows the best time to get it while there's still the LEs around.  I was talking to a gamestop employee that I always see there and he said that only a handful of people preordered the game and that they actually didn't have any extras.  He wasn't sure when they'd get more copies but that when they do it'll probably be the non LE editions.

Actually those offbrand Super Pad controllers are awesome for SNES. I'd advise keeping that 

Agreed.

The super pad is for sale or trade. I find the older I get the more I cant stand wired controllers. (and Ive never owned a newer system like a ps3 btw)

Ive been playing lunar on a ps2 with an after market wireless controller. That's also why I have such high hopes for the Retron 5

Got these 4 games. Zelda was $45. The girl that sold LttP to me was the only owner. She was pretty hot. She told me 5 different times I could call her if I had any problems with it so I said maybe we could play together sometime and she said ok. I'm going to wait a few days and call her.

I've heard Oddworld is good; got it for $4.49. Splinter Cell's a good game and I need it to do an xbox softmod thing I heard about that sounds pretty cool; paid $1.79 for it. Singularity was $5 at Goodwill. Haven't tried it yet; hopefully it's decent.



Got this bookshelf for $15 at Walmart. Got the rest of the stickers I needed for the controller bins.

[Falconhood]

that's clever! did you have those stickers made, or what? I keep my games in those slightly bigger-than-sweater boxes that lock.  But nothing to indicate which is which, except you can see them thru the clear plastic.
I wanted to have a picture of a MEGA DRIVE game today to share, but Edward McKay's Used Books and More didn't have any. They have Super Famicom and Famicom, and Japanese Saturn games, and other Japanese disc games...but no Mega Drive games. sigh. It's the only store on this side of Raleigh with any cartridge games. Do y'all go to stores or just flea markets?
