May 2008 Finds

[carlcarlson]

I was thinking the same thing, but about The Neverhood that Kitsune found.

Ah, didn't even notice that. I've got that one though (disc only, same as his), so I'm not as impressed. Ha. But yeah, that is an amazing game.

Hee hee.

... Is Nox even that good of a game? I find it all the time but just ignore it.

I've never played it, but from what I've heard/read, it's Diablo +1. It's got the same pick-up-and-play feel that Diablo has, but it's a bit deeper. Or so I've read. After looking on ebay it looks like this game isn't actually that valuable, but I've always wanted to try it. I might just have to buy one.

That would be McDonald's Treasure Land Adventure (at least that's what it's called in the US). It's developed by Treasure, and while it's not Gunstar Heroes or Dynamite Headdy, it's still pretty fun.

Something tells me you're going to be the Brazilian version of me. Hee hee hee.

Nice finds.

Oh yeah?And is it a good or bad thing?

EDIT:

Nevermind, now i see, its a GOOD thing!
Thanks fella!

If anyone has a slipcover for Lateralus for sale, please let me know!

I think I have an extra copy of Lateralus that still has the slipover, I'll let you know if I ever come across it.

This week has been pretty good to me. So far....

From a couple of days ago:

The local video rental/laundromat is closing down the rental portion, due to Family Video popping up recently. So, the owner is selling ALL his games (PS1, N64, SG, SNES, SCD) for either $2.50 a piece, or 5 for $10! Every game not only has the original box, but also all instructions/inserts. Here's what I picked up...

SNES:
Hammerlock Wrestling
War 2410
Doomsday Warrior
Cutthroat Island
The Ignition Factor

PS1:
Viewpoint
Warhawk (the longbox version)

N64:
Bust-A-Move '99

And, from today:

I stopped into the local K-Mart because they will occasionally place some of their games on clearance. I grabbed...

GBA:
Gunstar Super Heroes - $2.97

PSP:
Ultimate Ghosts and Goblins - $2.97

GC:
Space Raiders - $3

DS:
Contact - $3.97

The local K-Mart also has SMT: Persona 3 and the GBA Final Fantasy 6. I'm just waiting until they decide to put those on clearance, hehe... Sorry, I don't have a digital camera, so, no pictures for you!

It's great! The only thing that disappointed me about it was the fact that there's no 2-player mode like in the Genesis/Mega Drive version. But, I suppose that if another player was added with all of the chaos going on, it would've turned out as sloppy as Advanced Guardian Heroes did.

Anyway, sometimes is just unbeliveable how cheap do you guys found games such ULTIMATE GHOST AND GOBLINS!!!!Here in brazil it can go beyond 60$!!!

Damn!! I should buy up all of their stock and move to Brazil... I could make a killing! But yeah, it's nice having lower-quality department chains like K-Mart, who are constantly clearancing out products at low prices for cheap-ass gamers like myself. I have to admit though, I would do all kinds of regrettable deeds just to get my hands on some of the Sega Master System stuff that's released down there...

[coreys429]

Wolverine, Operation Wolf, Spy vs Spy, and Festers Quest for $.50 each.
Sarcastic Pillow Jefferson Airplane $.25 cents
2 Super Nintendo's with 4 games and all the hook ups $20.
Two DCX Cds (dreamcast cds that let you play import dreamcast games) .50 each.

Hell yeah, and thehe goes a very good example of this:

As i said, i went hunting down retro games today and although hopeless i had a very pleasing surprise.
As soon as i arived at the flea market a man full of loose sms games came to me and asked if i´d like to have some of the games, some doubles but he priced the loot 25R$, great price but only had 18R$(keep in mind SMS goes alround 7-10R$, loose or not).After some cheap talk grabbed it for 18R$ but take off the shit(Shooting G. and a double RAMBO 3).Here it is:

Choplifter(already have but this one looks better)
Rambo 3
Missile Defense 3D
Gangster Town
And for me, the reason why i picked this pack, VIGILANTE.
And the gran finalle:
YOHI ISLAND!!!!!!
First priced as 50R$
But you know, after showing some greens...
20R$, HELL YEAH!
There´s the pic:

Works both ways .. I asked a guy on Mercado Libre how much it would cost to ship a game to the UK. He said it would be R$145!!

Now I'm not an expert on shipping prices from Brazil, but I am pretty sure there's a way to post a Megadrive game for cheaper than £50!!

Today I received the last 2 games I am currently expecting. Both of these are for the PS2...

Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy
SNK Arcade Classics

[norkusa]

Had an o.k. day at the flea market today. Found a Zelda Game & Watch in real nice codition for $5 and PS2 Capcom Vs. SNK 2 for $9.

I've actually wanted CvS2 for a while but didn't want to spend $40-$50 on it, so this was a great find for me. The Zelda G&W is up for trade though if anyone wants it.

[Daft Punk]

Is the disc scratched?
