Wow. It's been months since I last posted here.

I've acquired so much in that time...

Let's get a very quick and incomplete summary:

* XBOX One (with The Division, Mirror's Edge Catalyst, DmC Definitive Edition, RARE Repaly)
* Replacement XBOX 360, the S model (threw the launch day console in the garbage when it's HANA chip fell off the board), as well as a copy of Lollipop Chainsaw
* Full Game Gear kit (Super Wide Gear, Battery Pack, OEM AC Adapter, carry case)
* 2 new OEM AC Adapters for Sega products (the yellow ended plug), in box
* Several PS2 games that I can't remember them all

And finally,
* A new voice, after getting surgery to assist in this front :D
Old Voice - New Voice

Oh! I also picked up the Game Gear LCD mod kit from McWill over at Atari Age.

I'm a novice at soldering, so please excuse the terrible job on this image:


But it works! :D

I found someone on Nintendo Age selling manuals and covers for PS2 games for pretty cheap. I sent him a list of what I was missing and he had about 90% of them. Just got them today. I was surprised how clean they were.

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

This is sort of a pre-pickup, but I hope to get some good stuff tomorrow.  One of my favorite game stores will be putting some games out tomorrow morning.  Due to local pawn regulations, they must hold traded merchandise for 10 days before they can sell them.  So, tomorrow they will have:

NES TMNT Tournament Fighters cart only - $140
Golden Axe Warrior complete in box for Sega Master System - $100
Dick Tracy complete in box for SMS - $35
Strider in box no manual for SMS - $20
Spider Man in box no manual for SMS - $25
A Sega Master system model II console - $50
Some common but popular NES games (I saw a gold Zelda cart and a few Mario games).

I'm hoping to get all of the Master system stuff.  I'm not interested in the Tournament Fighters (though I saw the cartridge and it's mint). The manager told me there's a lot of interest in the NES games, but I don't know if anyone else will be after the Sega games.  I'm planning to get there well before they open, and hopefully I'll get at least two games and the system.  The manager also told me if there's a line, he'll run it like a draft where each person can pick 1 item, then another when their turn comes around again. My order of preference for the SMS games is exactly as I have them listed above, even though the Golden Axe Warrior has a slightly wrinkled insert.

I've found some really good Sega stuff there before, and each time it was sitting on the shelf hours after they opened, so I'm hoping I'll get lucky and there's no other Sega collectors tomorrow.  I've never come across any of these games individually in the wild, and now I see 3 of the final 4 US released SMS games in one place at the same time.

Tomorrow I'll post what I get if anyone's interested.

I finally find a seller at a flea market selling games for only $1 each, but of course he only has one game.  Oh well, still better than nothing.

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

Cruis'n USA I wouldn't pay more than $5.
Pokemon silver I wouldn't pay more than $20 for.

I'm from Australia and the prices for these are higher than over there in the States. And I'm not talking about converting the currency, it's just that the games over here are, yeah, a bit much.

I'm from Australia as well. I guess they're probably standard prices. You can get them cheaper if you're lucky. OOT and Silver are probably market price. The others maybe $5-10 cheaper.

Ah gotcha, I got a pretty good friend from there. She tells me how expensive a lot of stuff is on a regular basis ha ha.
