you are right arseen, the mega, i mean COUGH COUGH, not at at all

32 Games + System + Mouse + 2 Controllers = $100

Thats 34 (games + super game boys) + 1 (system) + 2 (video and power cable) + 1 (Mouse) + 2 (Controllers) = 40 items

$100 / 40 Items = $2.50 each individual item in this lot.



















Missed you too Arseen  :)

Look at this guy!  So, you gonna be unloading this stuff at CCAG this year? :P

Not a huge haul by any means, but pretty good for the money I spent...

I'm also off to pick up another lot of SNES stuff up today. After my last huge haul of 110 (of which 100 CIB) games I met another guy who wants to unload is collection. He knows exactly what he has so no 100 bucks lot but still 29 mostly CIB games in nice condition including 2 x Hagane and Firemen and R-Type 3 and others will be mine soon. Will post pics when I come back. :)
2 + 3 = 23

While all you have me beat with the amazing SNES finds, I at least have a better way of showing my pick-up off :P

I did a review of the Link Nendoroid I got

I got one of those Nendoroid figures too. Came in last week. Haven't had a chance to open it yet though!

Got all this in late December 2015, so not techinically 2016, but close enough and I've just started getting them working.   Possibly some pics to come (Of course once I make covers)

I put an ad on Kijiji (Canadian equivalent of craigslist, except less rapey) looking for broken systems and games, and had someone contact me.   He had a bunch of old systems, wanted a NES and SNES working, I get to keep the rest.  Well, the SNES just needed a new AC port, and the NES needed to be cleaned.  For that, I got another working NES, two SNES (one working, one blackscreened), two Genesis (one working, one no video), about 25 games for Genesis (nothing really rare, but some fun titles) a handful of games for the SNES (Link to the past probably being the best) and a few basic NES games, two light guns, four NES controllers, all for free.

Best part is, all for free.  Cost me about $15 in parts to get the two SNES working again, the Genesis just needed cleaning.   Now I'm just keeping an eye out for cheap carts for any console.  Just ordered myself a 32x on ebay for $20 (need a cheap Sega CD now).

Here's to a good 2016 everyone (*raises the cup of Iso Alcohol I've been using to clean each cart)

While not as impressive as the SNES pickup earlier in the month, I'm pretty happy with this.
About 100 Sega games for $200 from a local seller.  Some games are complete, others are missing manuals.  And there are definitely a handful of duplicates (mostly sonic and sports titles).

A lot of decent titles in here, for the Genesis AND Master System.  Some have manuals, some don't.  Condition varies, but all look pretty respectable.





But these are the games that made all of this worth while for me.  Truxton, Streets of Rage 3, Shadowrun and King's Quest alone make the lot worth its price tag.

Nice haul.

I'm Sega's always got a soft spot for me, it's the console I had as a kid, rather than Nintendo. Heck, for the longest time I only had Sonic Spinball.

8 year old me would kill for some of the stuff I've got now (although at the same time, I wish I had some of the games I had back then too ahaha)
