Thanks Well I already DL'd it, so I guess I'm stuck with it

So, this is my haul from the last two weeks (Excluding new retail games). After a conversation with a few members over Mighty Final Fight, I finally decided to bite the bullet and pay out the ass for it. It also reminded me that I needed Final Fight Revenge for Saturn. All this stuff is from ebay at ebay's trending prices.

FFR is so terrible :/

nice haul segamer. Did you end up paying full price of that final fight on eBay?

$89 for Mighty Final Fight with Free Shipping. More then I should have paid but now it's off my checklist.

Dang thats actually pretty decent for what they go for. I see a ton of BIN for like 100 dollars. But typical going rate is about what you paid. I wish I could pull the trigger on games like that as easy as you can!

I give myself a budget of about $500 per paycheck for entertainment; movies, video games, etc. Month after month, some games stay stagnant at the same price point and I usually put those games on the back burner. I really need to pull the trigger on Little Samson but that's going to wipeout my entire budget.

Those rare NES games seem to be stagnating and in some cases going down in price.

I'd wait on them if I were you as they may come down a bit more.

I paid $450 for Little Samson a year and a half ago which was the going rate for a good condition copy.  It then went as high as 700 but I think it's back down in the $500-$550 range.

It's a great game but not worth anywhere near the going price.  It's a must though if you're trying to curate a collection of all the best games from each system.

Yeah, Little Samson is definitely just insane nowadays. Probably one of the best decisions I made early on was picking up Little Samson, Bubble Bobble 2 and Power Blade 2 for $90-100 each. I think I was around 18 or 19 then and I'm 24 now, its pretty ridiculous just how much they've all gone up since then. Especially Little Samson.

Flintstones: Surprise at Dinosaur Peak is the only stupid rare Taito release I have yet to pick up and that's one I seriously regret not getting at the time I picked up Little Samson and the others. Ill never be able to bring myself to pay what that goes for now.

Same here. I picked up all the rare nes titles back when they were sub 100 dollars. Even most of my SNES collection was bought a while back ago and I'm glad that I picked up the games when I did. I got my copy of earthbound back when it was just 40 dollars, and now it has more than tripled in price.

Ring King - $3
Star Force - $3

Here are all the games I got from Super! Bitcon gaming convention I attended today:











After talking to segamer about Mighty Final Fight for the NES, I finally couldn't resist the urge to not buy and ended up picking it up at the convention. The guy gave me a pretty good deal since the label had some markings on it.

Finally picked up a copy of Alien vs. Predator for the Atari Jaguar.  It’s missing the outer box, but I have the manual, box insert, and all three inlays.  It’s getting really hard to find those inlays.
