As of posting this only 2009 hours before Christmas presents. :D
Gotta start buying stuff soon.
And Santa Claus lives in Northern Finland not North Pole.
Inside Northern Polar Circle yes, but not North Pole itself. :P

just got my ouya in the mail. they fucked everything up and then lost my order so now i finally got one like 5 months later than what was promised. and it's not even the backer's version with the top contributor's names etched in but the standard retail ver. but they threw in a second controller so i'm sorta fine with that. now i'm picking out what roms to put on it.
-
now i'm picking out what roms to put on it.
All of them.

Do you know if the roms can be held on network storage, or do they have to be local to the ouya?

Got a few things today....
(http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7342/10044366616_d4b099051b_c.jpg)
The Vita I got last week, so it's technically a September pick up, but whatever.
Got it used for $120, with a 4GB card inside. The handle attachment I got separately for about $10, which also changes the shoulder buttons into more typical triggers. It's a bit less portable, but much more comfortable.
The Genesis games I got today. Tiny Toons - Buster's Hidden Treasure loose for $3 and Quackshot complete for $8.
I also got a nice package in the mail today...

Following my post in last month's pickup thread (http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=12983.msg117927#msg117927) where I got (among many other things) an incomplete copy of Lunar 2 with only the case, game discs, and making-of disc, the very generous Mick Dundee (http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=902) decided to send me almost all the rest of the bits for free! ;D That is: The box, the 120 page hardcover manual, the soundtrack, the omake box with the map... Even another case (in better shape than what I've got) with Disc 3 and the making of disc. The only bits I'm missing now are the pendant and the cardboard standees.

Got these amoung other dreamcast games throughout the month of Sept but just got a chance to snap a couple pics today.
(http://imageshack.us/a/img96/6489/d66n.jpg)
All were Ebay auctions that I won. Grandia 2 and Shenmue were from a single auction but the reason it caught my attention was that Shenmue was the LE with the soundtrack included.
Skies of Arcadia I already have for the gc and to be honest seeing what other auctions were going at I didn't expect to win with the max bid I put in. But I won and now my only dilemma is which version do I want to play lol
(http://imageshack.us/a/img42/7039/y2ph.jpg)
This game was one that I never thought I'd see myself buying for the price that it was. But I couldn't help but fall in love with it once I played it on an emu. So before prices get any higher I figured it'd be better to get it now then later.

Picked up this NES lot for $30 on Craigslist. The guy said he was selling it so cheap because the system was broken (flashing blue screen). I think that all it needs is a good cleaning and maybe a new pin connector, no big deal. I plan to get it up and running and resell it with the games I already own from the lot.

Hey everyone,
what do you reckon that all of this is worth?
Trying to decide whether to buy or not.
(http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTAyNFg3Njg=/z/DBEAAOxyjFpSS2LF/$T2eC16NHJGQFFh3rULC-BSS2LFJ)qw~~48_20.JPG)
-
A good 200$-250$?
-
It's worth probably +200 dollars. But being the cheap ass that I am, I'd make a low ball offer of $100-125.

Im not too good at this...I dont know a lot of the values. But id say its worth upwards of $200 probably even closer if not more than $300 assuming everything is in working good shape
-
Cheers guys :) I'm in Australia so things are naturally more expensive, the average price for that Conkers on eBay is 200+, the cart itself goes for 130-180. And a n64 goes for about 80. If I can pick it up for 200 I'd be stoked :) Just wanted a second opinion.
Kinda justifying my money spending haha.
Edit: Someone offered 450 and the guy wants over 600. I'm out :(

Went to my local game store and they were having a buy 2 get 1 free. I had already paid for my games and one of the employees was looking through a box for the Outrun cart. He was pulling carts out and I saw the JBD Knockout Boxing cart. Best of all they only wanted a dollar!

Nice grab on Stubbs. Fun game.

Bought this in September but it showed up today so whatever! Batch 3 of MVS carts showed up today! (Batch 2 has been delayed...)
Decided to cut the bullshit and just picked up the whole set at once rather than one at a time seeing as how I would want them all eventually anyway.

:o
That's a cool set i got 2 mvs machines a single slot and a double but i still dont have any metal slug games for them yet, i got some cheap commom titles like samurai shodown & king of fighters games. Soooo yelly ... How much was the set.

Some stuff to kick off October!
(http://imageshack.us/a/img833/1350/rq64.jpg)
Shadow Warriors (PAL A) and Ski or Die (PAL B SCN) both CIB ~20 and 15 $ respectively.
(http://imageshack.us/a/img69/5428/sgex.jpg)
And here we have some carts that have taken a beating... both were quite cheap considering the SCN versions on Darkwing Duck (yes, that's the game) and GMC '92 go for way more than what I paid. I don't really mind as long as the games work, but I will look into printing a new label for DWD... too bad there's not one on this site.
I wonder what has eaten GMC, though. It has a sticker indicating it was used as a rental so who knows how many people have sank their teeth into it!
-
My Ski or Die box is in better shape. :P
I have Darkwing Duck, I'll scan the label in a bit.
-
Yeah, I know, the previous box was better. But I got a good deal on this one with some other stuff, so I picked it up.
A label for DWD would be great, thanks.

Jeez, what did Cujo get a hold of that thing? lol
-
How much was the set.
Ran me about $360. So by no means a steal, but still better than what they go for individually. Plus I get to skip the trouble of tracking them all down.
-
This is my first deal ever buying online... and it's off ebay can you imagine? 116 issues with posters.

Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2013 $23.95
(http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/c4cf/0v73f8yz7zti1oh7g.jpg?size_id=5)
Wii Zapper $19.99
(http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/99eb/a98pya39k5aqee77g.jpg?size_id=6)
Bang! Bang! :)
I think that the prices are good. I rmember when games were priced around $50-$89. yikes!
I am able to buy Wii games for the Wii U at $15-30. not bad.
-
I thought The Zapper was always $20, Thats how much I got one years ago.
-
I've seen those things on clearance at Target for like 8 bucks :/
• The wonderswans came with a large lot for the business, but I don't do anything with B&W Swans, so they're going in the collection.
• Red Target GBA has been on my want list for a while and I just picked up a few for the business, so I thought I'd just keep one for myself.
• Midnight GBA actually belonged to a long time customer, but he saw something on the site (GBA-wise) recently that he wanted more, so I got this back as a trade. It's a Japan-only TrU exclusive color.

@Taigr
Ya, I got my Link's Crossbow Training zapper for $4 at a garage sale, it was in the box but didn't have the game. It did however have a white nunchuck in it.
I then found a decent copy of Link's Crossbow Training at a pawnshop for $2. $6 for a now CIB LCT and a nunchuck was a great deal lol.
@Wiggy
That's a nice pickup man! Really Diggin the 2 GBAs.

regarding the Wii Zapper, I am happy for everyone that has low-cost purchases but I do not like buying certain things that are used. I do not want to play with a dirty zapper. former owner could've scratched his bum, picked his nose, then played with the zapper. yik. LOL I like to buy things new and unopened. I will buy books/magazines like strategy guides because i do not need to touch them very often. anyway, all new at discounted prices. I agree that zapper should be cheaper but $20 is not much.
i now have 11 games for my Wii U :)
-
LOL hey, Arseen, I just realized how funny that statement sounds. "I do not like to play with a dirty zapper"

I thought that you would appreciate the humor. now look what you did :)
okay, back to work.
I am finishing some covers and making a guide for Star Wars Bounty Hunter (which i will post here too)
have fun ...

Just picked up my pre-order of the Ltd. edition of Windwaker HD
Glad I pre-ordered because ebay auctions for this one are pretty expensive right now.
Also you've got A-holes like this guy in my city who buy up all the copies and attempt to gouge.

I also got the LE of Wind Waker at Gamestop, funny thing is I had to wait for a while at the store as another customer was basically trying to bribe the employee for the only LE copy of WW, which was my copy. I loved ruining her hopes of getting the statue once she saw the employee ringing it up for me. ;D
I also picked up Pilotwings Resort, Killzone 3, Enslaved: OttW, and L.A. Noire for $4.50 each with Gamestop's Buy 2 for $10 deal. Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper was got for $15new at Bestbuy.
Also preordered Dark Souls 2 CE (Only game I am looking forward to in the future other than MGS V.)

I've come to proclaim my jealousy!
Wiggy - I'll be forever envious of your awesome dedication to collecting Nintendo handhelds! I'm currently on the hunt for a reasonable priced, near new boxed Graphite AGS-101.
taigr81m - I'm happy to see another person who owns more than three Wii U games! My library is also up to 11 now, and includes ACIII, Batman: AC, COD:BlOps II, Darksiders II, Lego City, Need for Speed: MW, Mario Bros. U, Luigi U, Nintendoland, Pikmin 3, Wonderful 101.
MaSHoe and mojoeskateco - I've gotta say, I do like the look of that WW LE, specifically the box itself. Quite cool. Didn't bother to preorder one myself though, as it would have required actually going into a GameStop. And to hell with those hoarders/gougers. They can suck it!
-

Picked up my collectors edition today as well. Lucked out too. When I pre ordered my copy shortly after it was available, they said there was nothing in their systems of a collectors edition. Then when I found out they actually had a collectors edition available, the pre orders were filled! Fuck. Anyway, they ended up having some extra copies for whatever reason so I was able to get one for myself, and grabbed one for my girlfriend as a Christmas gift. Told her I the one I got for myself was the last one... ;)

@Retro Deckades
Nice collection :) I like the Wii U system, especially the GamePad. I hope that they make more games this year. I do not have Mario Bros U yet, although I do have Luigi U. I am disappointed that the Luigi U has a time limit. damnit! I hate time limit games. I am still happy o have it in my collection.
by the way, I have not purchased a new system since N64 and PS2. The Wii U is now my newest console. I have not played ANY of the Pikmin games. I am wondering what they could be compared with? Pikmin looks interesting.
@Arseen
I have the bottom of the cover cleaned. I just finished removing the text today. I still have to restore the top-left of the cover to finish removing the Nipponese text/logo.

I sadly only have Star Soldier and now Adventure Island as I don't wanna pay ebay prices. Got those both from a forum I frequent (someone there was selling his whole collection and gave me nice prices as I bought big packages from him and several times too) for around 15 euros a piece.
Actually I haven't played them up to now though.

Finding boxed GBA systems has become quite the chore anymore. So many were owned by children, who of course don't take care of their belongings very well, much less the packaging (unless you were a totally obsessive child like myself, who kept EVERY box from every game I ever bought). My portables area on my shelves has become pretty much full. In fact, the whole shelving unit has become rather full. Gonna have to rearrange soon...

Why do you have 3 copies of Ecco?
There were 3 Ecco games released on Genesis: Ecco the Dolphin, Ecco: The Tides of Time, and Ecco Jr. not 3 copies of same game.

Picked up two major purchases:
My Preordered Windwaker Limited Edition (which will never be opened, since I have the download version on my Zelda Wii U) Was $40 after a trade in of a duplicate game

And I've been itching for some console Diablo action. Diablo 3 was $50 and Diablo w/ guide was also $50.

There is no real difference between the game genies except for what you see. I have 6 of them and they all work the same.

Ah, I love your collection pics, Wiggs. That one in particular is like porn!
Ha, thanks! I gotta snap some of the whole deal. It's been a WHILE since I have and things have changed a bit.

I think he means on the very top of the shelving bro, not the top shelf.

Just bought them this Friday:
- Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams - 19.99 PLN ($6.47)
- Super Meat Boy: Ultra Edition! - 9.99 PLN ($3.23)
Both are retail versions.
-
Victorious Boxers 2: Fighting Spirit (PS2), cheap-looking Ippo boxing game. brother's a fan of the manga and it was basically free at EB
Metal Gear Solid / Ghost Babel (GBC) Non-canon, but it looks like a sequel to Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake
Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness (PS3) Disgaea is a huge timesink so I skipped #4, but now that we're finally back with characters that started the series off I'm interested again. And technologically, the series just get better with every new entry since they keep piling features on to make grinding more fun.

The shelves are built into the wall, so there is no top.

In the photo looks like there is a space up there. You are the one loking at the shelve and know the space thay you have up there :P

Just bought another PS3 slim (not super slim).

I've been also looking for a PS3 or a XBOX 360 to play GTA V ... I'd imagine people want to sell theirs this year since the nextgen are coming. If you have a good deal on one Arseen, feel free to give me a shout.

Huutonetisa on muutamia 160-250 hintaan Kalliimis on pelei mukana.

We have been planing a trade starting July 2012, we really should finish that one. ;D
-
Yeah, for sure. I've just been so backed up with everything between the business and having an infant. And now that we've moved the business offsite, we'll be able to take on more projects, which of course means less time for other stuff. I've still got like 20 PMs here that need answering. I feel like a jerk, but I seriously just haven't had a lot of time :(

just picked up Pikmin 3 and Super Paper Mario for my Wii U console.

Anyone looking for some rare NES games?
Peek A Boo
Hot Slots
Bubble Bath Babes
They're complete, NTSC, 799 euro each. I'm not the one selling though.

More MVS stuff!
(http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p191/BaddyChaddy/mvscb_zps6978de07.jpg) (http://s128.photobucket.com/user/BaddyChaddy/media/mvscb_zps6978de07.jpg.html)
Batch #2 finally made it in. That's 5 more games (Crossed Swords, Aggressors of Dark Kombat, Shock Troopers 2nd Squad, Kizuna Encounter, Ninja Masters) to the collection bringing my total to 18. One more on the way. These are missing their original labels, but it wasn't a big deal to me given how simple these are to reproduce, and I got to save a few bucks. Also picked up 30 reproduction MVS carton boxes to put my carts in. Have a bunch of scans for the inserts, marquees and dip sheets for most of the games I have, that I'm going to clean up reprint and slap inside to complete these bad boys. Even if it is reprints!
That brings me to a question I'm hoping someone here might be able to answer for me. Anyone happen to know the exact dimensions of the art inserts and dip sheets so I can print these at the correct size? Maybe someone who possible owns a complete MVS game and could measure them and let me know? Would be really appreciated!

No offense, but a guy with 15 posts trying to sell something that isn't their own is probably not going to get much interest.

But if he were to borrow the games and scan the covers and manuals @600DPI with moire removal on, we would be more than pleased.
But no way I could afford to buy the games.

Posting links to the webshops selling them would be more favourable? If so, I'll keep that in mind.
@ Arseen
I don't have access to the games, if I did, I would have scanned them. :(

Used condition? Did they come complete with case and manual? I've been wanting to buy from GameFly but worried sbout condition.
-
I've bought from Gamefly a few times and they do come complete and the case and manual are always mint since they just store them until they are sold. The games have always worked so I would say go ahead and buy from them, you won't be disappointed.
-

Case and manual have always been flawless when I order from them. Even have all of the codes that would originally come with the game. I also received a soundtrack cd from a game that had it bundled with the first print run of the game lol.
And really if you get a disc that isn't in such great shape...put the game on your queue and when it gets shipped out see the condition and just mail back the worst looking one.

Hit up a garage sale. Everything for $50 (Sonic and Prince of Persia are just box and manuals lacking game, Defenders of Oasis is missing its manual but has game, Shinobi is complete):
(http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj30/FritzDWhite/garagesalepickupoct122013002.jpg)
I think the two adapters are for Famicom/SuperFam, but I haven't researched them yet so I'm not sure.
-
I know it looks a bit rough but I dont believe there is a cover for Defenders of Oasis on the site yet. Could ya scan it? Someone here might be able to work some magic on it.

Honeybee is a PAL > NTSC converter, I used to have one, I'd assume the other one does the same.
Nice deal though. LTTP + Yoshi's Island are probably worth 50$ already.

Just went to a dinner party with the fiancé.
Her friend's husband heard that I collected games and gave me a black gamecube with all the hook ups, a memory card, 2 controllers, and a complete copy of twilight princess.
It definitely pays to let your friends know that you are into games.

Awesome.
R.O.B. was my favorite Brawl character, they're incredibly hard to find here, sadly. And when you find one they're stupidly expensive.

Yeah I got mine in Action Set (or something similarly named) few years back.
It came with console + Duck Hunt + Gray Zapper + Gyromite + R.O.B + spinner+ spinners + nesessary leads.

Got these yesterday. Each PSP had an issue with it.
1) Power Input had a broken prong. No battery or battery door.
2) Unspecified issue with the UMD Tray. No memory stick.
3) Originally thought to be an issue with the screen. However, a new screen was put in, and it still doesn't operate correctly.
The third one, the PSP Slim, I got with the old screen, but none of them came with a charger or game, so I cannot test them to see what exactly is the issue wth 2 or 3. I did replace the power input from the first one with the power input with the second, as well as the battery and door. So now the first one should work without any problems (though I can't test it).
This is the first time I've ever tried my hands on repairing a handheld, or a video game machine of any kind. I'm eager to see if what I did for the first one worked. And once I am able to more accurately diagnose the issues with the other two, maybe you guys can help me fix them?

Sorry for the delays. but, I got Final Fantasy IV Easy Type.

Not the easiest portable to repair, but totally doable. Just be careful with the ribbon cables. That seems to be the first issue that repair noobs run into. They are easy to tear :-\
Sorry for the delays. but, I got Final Fantasy IV Easy Type.
Wait, doesn't that effectively make it the US version of FF2? ???

It's for the Japanese Label, Manual and Box, which he collects.

I can confirm that the repair to the first PSP was a complete success! I now have a working PSP.
The Slim seems to have an issue with the display. The screen turns on, and the audio works, but the screen remains black. I know it's not the screen, because the screen was already replaced. I'll have to open it up and see if I notice anything unusual.
As for the other PSP Fat, it now has the charge issue (since I switched the power inputs), which is a simple fix as long as I can get the part. However, it doesn't seem to read UMDs at all. The disks don't even spin. It doesn't register the UMD, and I can only guess as to why for now.

I had a similar problem with my PSP slim, every now and again the game would stop, there was a little switch on the inside of the UMD reader which detects if a disc is in or not, I just pushed it in and glued it in place, games work every time now!
Only problem now is it always thinks you have a game in, not sure how that'll affect the laser or anything in the long run...

Wind Waker HD
Pokemon X
aaaaand a 32GB card for my Vita.
The Wind Waker and Pokemon were their standard prices, naturally.
The 32GB Vita card was only $45 thanks to a promotion Best Buy had going.
I haven't gotten around to it yet, but I'll probably trade in the 4GB card that was in my Vita when I bought for $5 credit toward something else.

someone reminded me that dragon's crown is actually out in europe only it's not being promoted at all. had to ask around for a bit till i found a PAL copy so i ended up picking both versions, ps3 & vita, with an artbook for each one. also found wii mario all-stars on the shelf complete and cheap, which i'd given up on since it was a limited release like 3 years ago.

One more to the pile bringing my total up to 19, and 20 is on the way...then I need to try and take a step back from this thing...lol
KOF 99 is my favorite out of the bunch so I had to pick it up. Clocked soooooo many hours into this game with my buddy on the Dreamcast when we were younger. Also printed out labels I rebuilt for the games I bought that were missing the originals. Doubled them up so I could stick one on the boxes and I gotta say these things turned out absolutely perfect! ;D

Eh, bought one of these for $30. :( Shame these things are expensive, and the Beatles ones don't show up that often. Still, the orig drums were in a lot with the Bass for $35, so so far $65 still 'ant bad for the Beatles Rockband stuff. Still need a Bass adapter.

Went to some garage sales this morning. Folks were saying that some guy cleaned out all of their video game stuff at 5:45 in the morning. I had to laugh a bit. That's some dedication!
I only found 2 sales with games out of over 20 visited. First, picked up Mario Luigi Bowser's Inside Story on the DS for $2.
Next I found this Sega Dreamcast. I've never played Dreamcast and I probably won't keep this lot, but what really caught my attention was the condition. It was obviously adult owned.
He was asking $50. I didn't have my phone to check any values so I went with my gut on this one and picked up the lot for $37. It turns out that Street Fighter is a little valuable so it looks like I did alright.

Dreamcast may not be the priciest system, but you did good.
The $37 would cover the controllers at the least.
-
I might even go so far as to say finding ANY boxed system in that condition with that many boxed controllers and games for that price would be a good deal.

Picked up a couple ps1 shmups. $15 for the pair
Unfortunately RayCrisis was missing the back

Last weekend I actually found something other than PC games... A Genesis :D
No power cord or TV hookup but this and the controllers were $4 which to me sounded pretty good...

Went to some garage sales this morning. Folks were saying that some guy cleaned out all of their video game stuff at 5:45 in the morning. I had to laugh a bit. That's some dedication!
I only found 2 sales with games out of over 20 visited. First, picked up Mario Luigi Bowser's Inside Story on the DS for $2.
Next I found this Sega Dreamcast. I've never played Dreamcast and I probably won't keep this lot, but what really caught my attention was the condition. It was obviously adult owned.
He was asking $50. I didn't have my phone to check any values so I went with my gut on this one and picked up the lot for $37. It turns out that Street Fighter is a little valuable so it looks like I did alright.

Hey now Azarkhel, that's stuff looks strangely familiar... ::)
Now where have I seen that stuff before??? :P 8)

Dragon's Crown finally came out in Europe last week. I bought it on Tuesday, and only got a chance to play it on Saturday... Awesome game! Mind you 3 of the 4 hours I was playing was spent with me and my mate kicking the shit out of each other in the main town. Funny stuff! Good game. I'm looking forward to getting properly stuck into it!

I got some nice pick ups this month. Just waiting on a few packages to show up this wee. One of the items was a stupid impulse buy. Ill post when everything arives.

Lemme know if you wanna sell.

Picked up at the local reseller. His prices keep getting worse and worse but I was able to trade a bunch of crappy ps2 games that cost me nothing for 25 in trade so only had to spend $25 cash

I went to Goodwill:
N64, System Only with Jumper Pak and Lid.
And a great find:
(Not exact album, found a picture)

Elvis Debut Album, - $1
This seems to sell for $50-$100 on eBay. Mine is beat up, Top and Bottom sides are split, The far right was cut down (The word Record under the top corner box is cut down to "Reco") It's a clean cut, so it does not look ugly or anything.

Too lazy for photos.
SNES - Road Runner: Death Valley Rally ($4 cart only)
PS1 - Heart of Darkness ($8)
PSP - Medieval: Resurrection ($4.50)
DS - Plants vs Zombies ($8)

Something new again. Some SCN boxes and instructions from a friend in exchange for a few games, and a few games to fill those boxes with. Coupla boxes in really great shape, few taken some hits along the way.

I'm quite happy to get a SCN copy of Solomon's Key 2 complete in pretty good shape.
-
Having heard that Tommo/SNK deal is off, and no more Neo Geo X were going to be made - i took the plunge and grabbed the Neo Geo X gold, with a clicky stick, and the classics pack.
Haven't tried it on the TV yet, or upgraded the firmware, but i'm quite pleased with it so far.

Haluaa niin scannauksen tosta Solomon's Key 2 manuskasta.
Och samma på Svenska and English.
Actually would like to scan all those manuals you got.
So scan please, or you gots my address, send them and I'll scan them and return them.
-
I'm not sure if I trust the Finnish postal service enough to send you the manual. Where am I gonna get a new one if they lose it or tear it? All my packages come roughly manhandled and bruised, ALWAYS. But I'll look into scanning it. You did notice that Lolo 3 manual is missing the front and back covers?
And if you have surplus manuals for NES games I got, I'm interested.

Understandable.
Missing front aren't problem as they can be redone.
I'll checks my collection of manuals for doubles, but there aren't many.
US SNES ones I gots few.

Area 51 (Xbox) - €1.50
Kuri Kuri Mix (PS2) €2.00
Destroy All Humans (PS2) €2.00
Kessen (PS2) - €3.00
Wii Party (Wii) - €3.50
Kuri Kuri seemed like fun.
Wii Party has been on my wishlist for some time, picked it up pretty cheap too.
And lastly, not exactly a video game, but a game nevertheless:

Hey! don't knock us mom-and-pop retailers. We need to make a living. :)
BTW - $50 is a fair retail price for that game.
-
Sorry no picture :-\
picked up a grey/baige "heavy sixer" Los gatos ATARI logo USA 2600 power supply for $1.99 at a local thrift.
Now where is that Heavy sixer! I hate how they sell all the systems, cables, and controllers separately in different parts of the store.
From what I've read they have a high dead rate and pose a fire hazard. Still a nice piece and kinda desirable.

I have no problem with the guy making a living.
I actually really like the dude and if it weren't for him my collection would be a lot smaller.
I just checked ebay and there are a few BIN auctions for BOFIV which are in the low to mid $30's and add shipping and it would be $45 max for me to get a copy. An auction would be even less so I respectfully disagree that $50 is a fair price.
I'd say $30-$35 would be fair and even at $40 I'd be willing to pay a small premium to support a local shop but he seems to be pricing things at 25-30% above BIN ebay price.
That said he did do me a favor by taking in a bunch of crappy PS2 games that he will have trouble selling which is why I'll keep going back.
I'm actually worried that his prices will scare the casual buyer away and he might have to close up shop which would suck royally.
-

I've got the same concern about a game shop in my area. Overpriced consoles and big-name items keep me away from the place although you can still find some stuff for good prices ($1.50 for Tomb Raider PS1, $8 for Mortal Kombat SNES). Plus the place doubles as an old-school arcade which is another reason I keep going back :p
Retailers aside though I got some decent pickups this month via trading.

Clive Barker's Jericho, Blazblue: Calamity Trigger, Final Fantasy XIII-2, and Jade Empire Special Edition (needs a cover if anyone has it).

I picked up a SNES Gameboy Player, Sonic and Knuckles, and some basketball game for the N64 today for $0.75.

I have Jade Empire, but it's the PAL variant. Could attempt to scan it, but my parents are out of town, so I can't do it at the moment.
-
If I remember correctly, I uploaded a raw of Jade Empire a few months back. But I believe that my cover is actually an extra, it just has a slightly creased spine. Free to a needy home.

Jelly of tomb raider box. Still need that game :/
I really miss that game! Clocked in sooo many hours into the multiplayer with a couple buddies I met up with that happen to be from Toronto (only a 4-5 hour drive from me). The first game that seriously got me interested multiplayer. We would consecutively smash kids together one after another on a daily basis until we would desert the multiplayer to the point where we couldn't even find players to play with. Then it got really dead, period. Wonder if anyone still plays...
Anyway, we've been tearing up GTA Online together lately! ;)

Went out to garage sales today, the two i went to I scored at both.
First went to one that listed they had video games and walked out with a nice Dreamcast lot for $20. System, 3 controllers, and 27 games . I was happy with what I paid, and I thought there was nothing really that special, just a few good games like House of the Dead 2, Crazy Taxi, Legacy of Kain, Slave Zero.
But, As I was doing a clean and a proper price check I noticed the Sonic Adventure is Limited Edition, and pretty pricy :) unfortunately it doesnt have the manual.

(http://imageshack.us/a/img854/7963/7ffe.jpg)
The next sale was a collector getting rid of some of his stuff. it was pretty picked through when I got there, But managed to grab these 4 games for $40. I needed Kirby and Ogre Battle for my collection, but Mario Party and Wipe Out will be for sale/ trade to recoup some money.

Totally forgot one of my most important pickup this month!!! Just been reminded while going in the basement and seeing it!
I got a free Sega master System with 2 controller, power hookup but missing the A/V cable with a copy of Rambo 2 complete!
A coworker had 2 SMS and since he knows i'm into collecting video games, he just decided to give it to me!
I was quite surprised and happy, as i never owned a Sega Master! Now i need to clean it good because it was really dirty and find a system box....!

Quick question for you Segamer, is that Ninja Warriors on PC engine the same port as the one on the SNES?
-
Some pretty rad scores this month! I'm jealous as I've been keeping my wallet tight in hopes of getting a PS4 next month.
-
Quick question for you Segamer, is that Ninja Warriors on PC engine the same port as the one on the SNES?
The PC-Engine port is based on the Arcade version. The Super Nintendo version is actually the second game in the series. In Japan, the super Famicom game is called Ninja Warriors Again.

Went back to the local game shop with the remainder of my back porch stock and managed to trade it in to get:
SMT Devil Summoner 2 (Complete)- PS2
Brigandine (Complete)- PS1
Tactics Ogre (Disc Only) - PS1
Chronicles of the Sword (Complete) - PS1 Sadly I thought this one was an RPG and am now stuck with it until i stockpile a pile of trade-ables.
Lego Batman (Missing Manual) - DS for the misses
Starfox 643D (Complete)- 3DS
Basically just too lazy to do another picture.

Got a whole lot this month but this is probably my favorite of the bunch.
Not in the best condition though...the ball has small cracks and it seems that someone spilt soda on top of it because the buttons are sticky and nasty, metal plate on top has a couple rust spots on top and on the underside, bottom metal plate is dirty.
I tried cleaning it up and in my efforts I ended up wearing down the lettering on the top plate :( Mr Cleans magic eraser was working wonders lol
But besides the sticky buttons everything seemed to work fine and it just gave me all the more of a reason to get these...

Got a handful of spice GBAs to mod for the biz, then realized I don't have one of my own. That problem has been fixed ;D
The GO was a total impulse buy and I don't even know why. I NEVER do that sort of thing. But with that out of the way, I do think it's pretty cool. I think I'm gonna hack it and use it as my EMU machine for playing at work or when out and about.
The zillion copies of The Con were .99 each at my local computer store. Grabbed every copy they had. Nothing like minty new PSP cases for some of my more worn games. I had about 5-6 more before I took the pic, but had already put the cases to good use ;) from that same store were a few copies of R&C Size Matters, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, & Pure. All new, all .99.
-
^^^ that's neat! Are those TVs actually illuminated?
Yes. The statue lights up. it's one of the best special edition bundles i've ever owned. And it's pretty big, too.

And it's pretty big, too.
...that's what she said.....anyhoo, yeah, when I picked mine up I kept the box it came in too because it came 1 to a case pack.
Also, why aren't your antenna on the 3 little tvs to the right? They were packed in like the batteries.
