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.

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.

Thanks!  I think I might try and go for a (mostly) complete set of GBAs after I'm done with the micros

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!

Thanks!

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...

[Retro Deckades]

Ah, I love your collection pics, Wiggs. That one in particular is like porn!

[larryinc64]

@Wiggy
Maybe put the phat Nomad on the top? That thing is taking up half a shelf!

@razielleonhart
That really sucks.   How much down was the preorser? I'm guessing you did not get a redfund?

I'm getting the box of 60 NES games in an hour! BTW

Got it! I'll post pics later today,

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.

[FritzWhite]

@nacho- I see, thanks for explaining.

@larry- Nice score

[SnesGuy]

I also got a nice package in the mail today...



Following my post in last month's pickup thread 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 decided to send me almost all the rest of the bits for free! 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.

I'm just missing the pendant. They don't show up by themselves very often. -_-

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. 




I also had a major score at my local thrift shop.  I will post pics later.

[larryinc64]

Here is some pictures of my massive lot! Is there any difference between the Black and Gold Game Genie?

[palmer6strings]

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.

[wiggy]

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.

Won't save me any space.  I don't get it

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.

Indeed.  Thanks
