TDIRunner:
Some Goodwill pickups.

I also picked up a ColecoVision off of Craigslist. It needs a good cleaning, but it also came with a few games:
  Donkey Kong (2 copies)
  Subroc
  Smurf
  Baseball
  Venture
  Roc'n Rope
  one mystery game

Superchop:
For years I've been passively looking for a nice and clean SNES At a decent price. But all I could find is either one that was already completely yellow, overpriced, or both. But the other day browsing goodwill I came upon this!

It was everything in the picture including the av cable and power cable...super clean with just a thin layer of dust on top and very minor yellowing on the controller ports...the inside of the system was just as clean...barely any dirt.

It ended up being $40 which was a bit more then I was looking to spend that day but I figured I wouldn't get another chance like this...especially since some guy saw it before me but he "refused to pay retail on it".

I can't say I'll go hard on collecting games...maybe 1 or 2 of my absolute favorites but will be saving up for an ever drive or something down the road.

TDIRunner:
I would say you should be happy with $40 for a clean SNES with three controllers and all of the cables. In my area, these tend to run around $70 to $80 for a system and ONE controller.

monjici:
It's the first time I see one with an embossed EJECT text instead of painted.
Perhaps this is a later model and they fixed the yellowing issues at that point?

Anyways, very nice pick up. I too would have to pay almost double for the same bundle.

JakeHC:
Not a gaming related pick up but I'm finally buying a new car tomorrow for a pretty good deal. More boot space too for huge pick ups haha just kidding. But over the moon!
