Because Arseen said so :)

Got it brand new in a clearance sale in the store across the street.

Moved this to the right thread..

4/13/15 -  I'm on a business trip and stopped at a couple game stores.. Found these gems!  I will be scanning and making a cover from the James Pond game!



I have some other stuffed animal pickups I'll take a picture of when I get home.

I found Mario Kart 8 - $3 at Good Will.

Today I got in from Toy Wiz:
6" Ganondorf
4" Toad
4" Luigi
2.5" Luigi
2.5" Mario
2.5" Olimar

and I went down to Target to pick up your Wario, one was left, but I also found:
2.5" Diddy and Donkey Kong (Why not, $3.30)
4" Samus
4" Diddy Kong
Blue Pikmin Plush
Plush display box

I also ordered a Red and Yellow Pikmin off eBay for MSRP ($14 for both) with free shipping, the seller still has some.

Sorry Velmeran, they were right there. Thanks though for finding me Samus and Diddy, I'm sure someone else wants them, I'm still looking for a Metroid, Tetra, and a Red Pikmin.

Whoops, I meant Mario Kart Wii  :-\

Still a good find, but not as good.

Some Goodwill pickups.  Code Veronica is a double, so its up for sale or trade if anyone is interested. 





A few more Good will pickups.  I'm looking for covers or scans for both of these games.  ;)





I also picked up an FZ-10 3DO.  This is a really clean model.  It came with the cables and two controllers.  The FZ-JP2X controller has the cap over the 2nd player controller port which is nice because you never see those anymore.  I'm hoping to find a USB adapter for this model.


Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

According to the woman at Goodwill, someone she didn't know told her that he heard these games are worth $20 each, so I must have found a really good deal to pay only $40 for the lot......... Despite that unpleasantness, I'm still pretty happy with the buy.

Would you be able to scan your A boy and his blob cover? Thanks
can you please scan giana sisters ds and the other box for super mairo all stars

Sure, what part of Super Mario All Stars do you want me to scan? The outer cardboard, the SMA game case, or the Super Mario History case inside?

the outer red cardboard box

The box has 2 seals on it. The bottom one is still intact and I don't really want to cut it open. Sorry I can't flatten this out to scan. If you want I'll scan it out without flattening the box.

No need to flatten the box, just fill the box so the scanned surface is ridgid and absolutely flat against the scanner bed, so no blurry spots come up.

Those games are worth around $1 each.  The display case is probably worth $20.  The only game that's worth anything significant is the ColecoVision game BC Grog's Revenge - maybe $10-$15.  Still not a bad deal especially if you're looking to start a collection as you have some of the better quality 2600 titles.  I can't see what the yellow label Atarisoft game is.  If it's Galaxian for ColecoVision, it's worth around $25.
