[jonjandran]

I got a Brand New HP 8x External Dvd Writer at Goodwill for $75.00

I'm quite pleased since these sell new for $199

I forgot that the manager over at gamestop gave me the 8-bit classic GBA advertisement material that came in this week. They are very nice window clings that show Donkey Kong, Link anda fireball throwing Mario. It also has the trademark Nintendo in an oblong oval.


Hooray for me !

Dragon Warrior VII (PSX, mint complete)
Harvest Moon (GC, mint complete)
Wonderboy in Monster Land (Genesis, boxed, mint)

I went back to the movie rental outlet store tonight, now that the sale changed to "buy two, get two free". It was kind of disappointing. Almost everything I was planning to buy for the purpose of selling was gone. Not a single Mario Party left, DKC 1 and 2 gone, and others. :( Not that I mind picking up games for myself, but I could really use some cash (to buy more games >) ). I ended up buying:

For N64:

Quake 2 (boyfriend wanted a FPS for some reason)
Blast Corps
Banjo-Tooie x 2

For NES:

Adventures in the Magic Kingdom (had no idea this was an R5, pretty cool)
Duck Tales
Superman
Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Vice Project Doom
RoadBlasters
Spy Hunter

And a Prima guide on The World is Not Enough (boyfriend's been playing it lately).

All loose, and all for a total of 17.94 plus tax. Some good stuff for sure, but the duplicate Banjo is the only sale fodder I got. :/ They recently got in a big stack of guides all for 1.99. I should look into the values for them. o_O This sale is going to continue for quite awhile, so hopefully they'll get in lots of new cool stuff soon. :)

Megaman X2 for SNES loose, but I had the box and manual at home.

Soul Caliber for Dreamcast

Final Fantasy X

And Ribbit King for Gamecube.

I was pretty stoked about Megaman X2

Which store did you find Megaman X2 at Cap? Is it the one out at avondale? I was out there the other day and didn't see that. It says they have a copy of splatterhouse 2 there but I can't find it at ALL. I want that game bad cause I have the box and manual for it and I love the game, but it seems to be the IMPOSSIBLE find. Found 3 though, heh.

This week I found Legend of Dragoon, Final Fantasy Tactics and Parasite Eve II at a pawn shop for $5 each. I'd seen them there last week but the lady who owns them said she was holding them for someone. I came back a couple of days ago and they hadn't came back, so I got her to get them out for me. I also saw Ephemeral Phantasia there for $15, but the box and manual were a little rougher than I'd like.

The day before that I bought Virtual Hydlide, complete and most likely hardly played, at a game store for $5. I also bought Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon for Xbox at my local comic book store for $15.

Not a great find but I needed one.

For $10.00:

Genesis w/3 controllers
came with Sonic Classics, Space Harrier II, Power Rangers, and about 6-7 other sport type games that have been tossed into my garage sale pile.

Plus a surprise bonus, Conker's Pocket Tales for GBC in the bottom of the box.

[ubersaurus]

GBC:
Project S-11 -6 bucks

N64:
WWF No Mercy boxed-9 bucks

Game Boy, carry case, plus Kirby's Pinball, Aleeyway, and Fist of the North Star-8 bucks

Pretty good, even if No mercy's manual is a bit ratty.

I was at the EB at 75th and Bell Rd. They didnt have anything else rare
But they also said they were not going to have them anymore. I think they are shipping them to Avondale today

How is this for a find:

4-Wheel Thunder (Complete)
MTV Skateboarding (Complete)

My friend had 2 DC games he got from another friend, and said that they didn't work. Now I know how much they are worth, but the fact is that they had price tags on them that were $30 and $40 (yes, they were even, it was from a local game store).

He gave them to me because they "didn't work". Both of them worked perfect on my DC. I just got these 2 games (which somebody paid $70 for not even a year ago) for free.
