Is that a Playstation AV cord with that Super Famicom?
Obviously it's the Nintendo Playstation.

What is the etiquette in this forum. When I add games to my monthly haul, do I edit the original or make a new post?

I don't think there's any specific rules regarding what and when to post to the monthly "haul" topic. I can't imagine there's any issues making a new post to share your most recent haul. Senior members please correct me if I'm wrong.

  • I'm kind of idle... at least for now.
The local Bargain Hunters was a treasure trove of video games spanning multiple generations. My brother (Voyager15) and I split funds to purchase IL2 Forgotten Battles and the Ace Expansion Pack and for myself, a Hot Wheels Hydroplane Computer Cars set. I didn't really get it for the car itself, but the software associated with it, which is loaded on a 3.25 inch floppy disk.




On both IL2 boxed sets, however, I attempted to remove the stickers used to scan barcodes, which evidently damaged the box. The front covers themselves were unaffected.

We may still be able to work some scans off these, however, and publish them to the site or forums somehow.

lol I never even noticed that. Since this is mostly something for display, I'm not terribly worried. It didn't come with power either. But it was basically only $10, so I'm definitely not complaining

Target has B1G1 on select Wii U games. It's technically online only, but my store was price matching their website.

Link for included games.

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

Agreed.  But I actually didn't own any of these outside of the digital version of MK8 that was pre-installed on my Wii U.  So at an average of $26 each, it was a pretty big win for me.  I had a chance to get a few of these for $40 a while back so I'm glad I pass on them.

But I think the big take away from this is I think Target is getting ready to drop Wii U all together, so now is the time to keep an eye out for more clearance sales.  And we all know that Target will even mark down first party Nintendo titles.  I had been watching for the Wii U pro controller to drop because I wanted a second one for cheap, but unfortunately, both of my stores of completely sold out despite never droping the price that I know of.

I managed to pickup my first Wii U Pro controller from Walmart for like $25 a while back. Never seen it that cheap from them since. Dunno if it was marked wrong or what happened

Did any of you (besides Arseen probably) check to see how much shipping would be?  The deal is available online.  I get that sometimes shipping kills the deal, but it's worth checking.

I think I checked something few years back and no global shipping.
