May 2011 Finds

[The 1 2 P]

My 50th double post of the week (annoying).

Judging by all the other double post I'd say that DP is going thru some more technical difficulties.

I stopped at a Movie Trading Company on the way back from a friend's house and bought Scud: The Disposable Assassin and Herc's Adventures for the Saturn, $3.99 each. Herc's Adventures is in a badly cracked case, naturally.

My latest finds that I have found fresh straight out of my local flea market! ^o^



- Spyro the Dragon
- Rally Cross 2
- Spice World
- Tomb Raider
- Tomb Raider II
- Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation
- Crash Bandicoot
- Crash Bandicoot 3: Wraped

I got this lot for $14 total and they were all in excellent condition! I always wanted to play the original Spyro and Crash games when they first came out so now I have the chance to fulfill my childhood memory Spice World, however, made me lol because I remembered seeing this at Toys R Us years ago and a lot of girls wanted to buy the game (screaming and crying notwithstanding) ^_^



Next up is this lovely dart cabinet set that was brought for $5 I'm planning to refurnish the inside since it was heavily used and clean it up while adding a new dart board.



Last but not least, this Gold-covered Triforce GBA SP (which I believed was the ones that were sold in Europe with the Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap) along with a carrying bag for $7 I didn't expect to see this in the flea market so I have a great time finding these things

@zama - I used to have that dart board!! Man that brings back memories!

Just three things today:


Microsoft Office Home & Student 2007 (case, no disc) - $1
El Piporro - Para La Raza - $1

... So that CD, well, the guy was an awesome Mexican comedian for most of his life. I really liked to watch his movies when I was a kid. For $1, why not?


Quake II: Quad Damage - $3
It has everything EXCEPT Quake II! Both expansions, the Netpack, and the Quake II instruction manual were inside, but the main game is missing. All CDs and items are mint. Judging from the other items, though, I think I can just add a regular Quake II game and call it complete. I'm not sure if I should sell it or not...

Well today was the day I met up with the guy I bought Brigandine and Thousand Arms off of last week. Here is the rest of his collection. $300 for this lot, but I ended up going half-in with my brother, so $150 each



$300 for these 42 games.....$7.14 a piece!
All of these games are complete and if not mint then damn near it. The only complaint is that Valkrie Profile is missing disc 1...which I was aware of.

Oooo that's awesome!

The spidersense was tingling on the way home so I stopped at my local Goodwill. Walk in and see a guy at the front counter going through a plastic tub of Saturn stuff (!). So I casually walk around him and find a fat PS2 with two controllers and the DVD remote (no cables). So I grab that just as the guy leaves. I grabbed the Saturn tub, walked around a bit and found the Saturn MK-80107 steering wheel back in the electronics section for cheap. Here's what was in that tub:

Saturn MK-80000 console w/power cord and RF adapter
2 loose controllers
1 controller with box, baggie, cable still tie-wrapped, still has the foam around the plug
Orange (red?) Stunner
Blue 3rd party unmarked gun, looks like a .45 semi-auto

Games (complete, minus foam, only 2 cases have broken tabs)
Need for Speed (2 copies)
Virtua Fighter 2
Wing Arms
Daytona USA
Fifa 96
Hi-Octane

Panzer Dragoon Playable Preview w/sleeve
Sega Screams Vol 1 w/sleeve
Virtua Fighter Remix w/sleeve
loose Bootleg Sampler disc
empty Virtua Cop case/manual

Plus a copy of the "That Virtua Feeling - Sub Pop and Sega get together" audio CD and a complete Genesis NBA Action 94.

So I checked out, came home, and was pleasantly surprised that the Saturn fired right up. Needs a battery but that's normal. The PS2 had GTA San Andreas inside. It gave me a DRE on a blue disc but it played a silver game and a movie no problem, probably just needs blown out and maybe a slight tweak. All together I spent 50 bucks.

Beatmania, Append 5thMix, Append Gottamix2-Going Global & Beatmania featuring Dreams Come True were found in a hole in the wall thrift in San Pedro, CA. $5.49 for the four of them.



MegaMan NT Warrior battle chips and holder-found at a church sale for a dollar.



Bubble Bobble and Clu Clu Land were $4.99 at a Goodwill; Impossible Mission II came out to $4 after a trade at a game store.

Judging by all the other double post I'd say that DP is going thru some more technical difficulties.
