Nothing too exciting at the yard sales today. I did find a box full of old VHS clam shells for $5 that should be useful. Topping it off with ICO for $2.

Went in to Salem NH to visit my brother and check out the Bullmoose store's new location.

Got the book from Core Gaming. Much like Play N Trade, but iwned by 1 guy.

The DS Headphone/mic and WiiU Battery pack were at ToysRUs on "Blue Clearance" (75 or 80% off sticker price)

Tools are for work.

Got a complete copy of Cave Story 3D today.

This is one instance when I wish the US version had the Japanese cover art.

Looks like I got more covers to do now.

They're made by asciiware under license so not as good as the nes advantage, but at least they look nice. The joysticks are held in place by cheap plastic studs that break off when doing too many dragon punches.  I'm one of those few people who almost never used the normal controllers for a system, and burned through three of the super advantages.

I will say they help up fine until I bought SFII.

Grabbed some SNES games that have been on my list for a while now.

Sparkster
Skyblazer
Congos Caper

$100 for all three at the local shop - I was able to trade in some leftover garage sale finds that were free to me to lower it to $50.  The $50 cash I spent was also from selling doubles from the garage sales so these were basically free :)



He also has a nice copy of aero fighters which was very tempting but I figure I could spent the $350 he wants for it on a combination of games that I can get more out of.

 Im about the same distance East of Core Gaming. But I have to travel 111. Not a major multi-lane highway.

 I figure you travel north on 93 for about 30 min and you're there. Its 45 minutes give or take for me.

The store isn't bad. Trading in can be good or bad. If you are trading in newer stuff and need cash....its hit or miss. If you manage to score decent at a yard sale on older stuff he might be able to give you a decent price.

 His prices are good on more common games, but close to eBay prices on the rare ones. I haven't found any I need from him in a while, but I stick to very basic RPG games to collect and only need a small hand full of older titles.
