I haven't ever seen it on ebay, but I've seen it on yahoo japan auctions trying to see if it was rare at all but it never got any bids starting at 10 bucks.

I feel the need.... the need for SPEED.

I completely forgot that I posted that.

I don't really care about taking photos cuz they are pretty basic items that everyone is familiar with.

Edit: OOT3D is amaaaaazing

Took a few weeks off of picking, was glad to find a few cool things today.

A lady friend works at a vintage clothing place/sorta records and old stuff store and she called me and said she got a big bucket of gaming stuff, there was a bunch of Coleco/Atari stuff that I wasn't really interested in. Some Sega Genesis too but I got a new NES controller since I found a Sattelite in the box and I grabbed a couple of N64 instruction booklets. 

$1 for all 6 booklets, $1 for the controller, $3 for the NESattelite


Found this sitting on a table waiting to be purchased. Missing the A/V chord but it has a rumble pack and came with Ocarina of Time and Banjo Kazooie all for $5





Got these vintage movie posters from E.T. and Back to the Future, $5 for both


My little cousin is going to camp so I figured I'd be cool and get her candy for the 6 hour bus ride. $7 worth of candy was surprisingly the most expensive purchase for me today.

Damn dude. I wish I could get a good deal on a Funtastic N64. And you got my two favorite colors to (Jungle Green and Atomic Orange). What are the odds that you'd let either one go for a good deal

Nice finds!

hey guys, been a few weeks since I posted any finds but here's this weekend:



Got the 2 GC games for free (as well as a rubix cube, guessing I missed some cool games because those were the only 2 left.

The NES games were $10 for the lot because I drove really far to a yard sale for them and I didn't want to go home empty handed.

I also got an N64 with a controller, all wires and 3 commons for $5

I also got a sword and a kukri for a combined $15

I'll be honest. Those SMS gams make me drool a bit. It's been a while since I picked anything up for my beloved Master System.

You've been getting some great stuff lately, nice finds!

-------------------------
I'm on the hunt for any and all:
Game & Watch games and memorabilia.

PM me if you can help a brotha get way into a slice of any of these.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks Nindo, Wacky Races cost me $25 but I don't like to buy online or from eBay

Getting from another collector is one thing but I like to find them in the wild

I know precisely how you feel. As long as I can help it (until the real rarities are an issue) I'm determined to never use the internet as a source for my NES collection. To me, I don't know it just takes a lot of the fun of the find, and the journey of the collection as a whole. Unfortunately though, the internet is about the only place you can find Game & Watches.

Except for thrift shop auctions.... but you know how I feel about those.

I'm getting gaming stuff in the mail soon for the first time, it'll be coming soon hopefully. I wouldn't do it normally but I got a good deal for a rare N64 game that is super overpriced in my area.

Man, for $25 some great gems there. The manuals alone are worth more than double that!

Thanks Nemo

I don't know a ton about SNES value stuff though since I'm mostly an N64 guy. I estimated that there's about $200+ in that lot, is that about right?

Yeah, I would say the $200 number is a pretty good guess. Honestly, the Chrono Trigger + manual is probably valued at $75 alone, depending on condition.

The game is 10 and the manual is 8 or so, it's a little bit folded but all the pages are there and it looks great.

All of the manuals are pretty great
