July 2014 Pick Ups Thread

nothing super but I did think they were pretty cool

That's awesome!  I wouldn't want to open those, but I would be wondering what they taste like.

The pac-man ones are ok, I still see them all over.  I have one open\drank, and one unopened.

And where the hell is anyone getting CD-I games at a freaking goodwill.  I never see that.

I purchased 2 of each.  They are not gonna be opened besides I think those energy drinks taste like shit

Then we talked a bit and he told me he just recently got a Game Gear with games in he'd let go for cheap as noone wants Game Gear stuff.
I said show it to me and after one glance I bought it. Boxed games are CIB except for Ax Battler and Wonder Boy. I think anyone knowing anything about collecting will know in a heartbeat why this was a astonishing deal for 50 Euro total.

JESUS TIK! Yeah I see why you bought that Game Gear lot without hesitation. With one glance, I would have done the same in your position. One game in there alone makes it all worth while. Power Strike II...

Coincidentally enough, I've been looking for good box & manual scans for the Game Gear version of Power Strike 2 for a couple years now. I have a cart made from the Game Gear to Master System rom conversion, and would ABSOLUTELY love to have some nice scans to make it CIB Master System style.

Any chance you could help a brother out? Seeing as how this may be the only chance I ever get to find good scans, I would really appreciate it!

Sometimes tik, I really really hate you!  Such an awesome score!

Maryland, in Aberdeen (USA).

I've been going to them for about 5-6 months now, and it's the first time I've ever seen them have CD-I stock. They usually only ever have PS1, PS2, Gamecube, and Xbox sports games. A few oddball games make it out each week, but I go there often enough to get them before anyone else, and the staff there have come to know be my name so they usually set some things aside.

Virginia, in Woodbridge.

Had about 10-20 of them in the last 2 years.  Not often, but periodically.

[Ozzy_98]

Anything like that and my goodwill bastards put online in a heartbeat.  They've not had a cart in 2 years.

Monty Python Live (Mostly) got me on a Python kick. I got Big Box Quest For The Holy Grail and Jewel Case Meaning Of Life for $35.
I also got a promo poster for MP:QFTHG for $10.
I might sell off the Meaning of Life and buy a Big Box copy.

I don't support piracy!

Joking aside sure thing I'll try to scan it today. The box needs a bit of love though to make it look really nice as a cover.

It's been about a year since my last Craigslist score but my persistence finally payed off again.







I've been wanting a Sega CD for years now, and finally got a great deal on one. Everything for $60. 

[Arseen]

Very nice.

Very jealous.

[autobot]

Been quite a month.

Saw Crisis Core had the foil cover, had to get it. Paired it with Prinny @ Gamestop for $12

RE2 off ebay

RE0 & 3 from Half Price Books. Used 1/2 off coupon on RE3, got it for $12.50

All I need now is RE: Code Veronica and I have the whole set!

If you find yourself trying to hump anything that moves, it's cause Road Avenger has a hidden subliminal message on the cover.  I read it in EGM once.
