I buy and flip games to buy more games. My camera isn't working, otherwise I'd post pics, but: Found Super Smash Bros for N64 at a pawn shop for $50 CAD (36 US), flipped it for 100 Bought Hologram version of Majora's Mask on ebay for $30 CAD And grabbed an expansion Pak and Controller at a yard sale for $5 Was a good week. --- End quote --- Great finds. I am assuming the Super Smash Bros was CIB? --- End quote --- No, loose but excellent condition. Games go for quite a bit here, and I bet I could have gotten more than $100 for it had I tried. |

Got one final purchase for the month. Target is running a buy 2 get 1 free.... So I sprung on Battlefield 1 and Pre-ordered Call of Duty Infinite with Modern Warfare re-release.... which netted me a free 59.99 game. I chose SKYRIM. Because i wasnt gonna pay for that without the ability to transfer my save file form 360 to xbone. That said, i like that if the game came out this week it was also eligible. Online works. In store friday works too if they have the rest of them. |

I've heard good things about the bigger (Matrox) models but don't know much about this one. I almost passed on it but took a better look at it and realized it will do component over VGA. Anybody messed with these? I ordered a VGA to component cable to see if I can get it hooked up to my TV. --- End quote --- Never seen one of those. Would love to know how it works out for ya. |

The good news is it works fine and displays awesome... the bad news is it won't work in my current setup. It only outputs VGA and Progressive TV (HD) signals, neither of which my current SD CRT will accept. It does work great on a HD TV though. So I could switch out my SD CRT for a HD TV but then I'd loose light gun games and CRT awesomeness. I'll hang onto it though if I change my mind or find a SD CRT with VGA input at some point. |
