So I had been doing Youtube pick up videos lately, however they tend to be time comsuming and I don't do them as often as I should. So I decided to just make a NA thread instead to help keep track of my grabs and lets be honest, show em off.

-=So I've been kinda lazy and haven't picked up any thing too crazy. Still need to get the stickers off some of these but here's what I've gotten in the last month and a half.=-

How much did you drop on the boxed Virtual Boy games, especially the Jack Bros?

500 bones on the lot. So not a crazy deal but decent for sure.

I'm going for a complete Shin Megami Tensei collection so Jack Bros. is an important one! =)

I have no idea if you're keeping all that, but there's some really nice stuff in there and you really should make time for that new Castlevania as it's excellent.

Yeah I'm keeping it all; I'm a video game hoarder lol and I might as well go for a complete VB collection as I'm almost there hah! I played the new Castlevania for a bit the other night, I was a little worried when I saw Simon Belmonts name pop up as I know this is an alt time line. Thanks though!

I haven't gotten a chance to touch Radical Dreamers yet, I came across it in the wild believe it or not! And yeah, I ended up with persona and two copies of persona 2 on a quest, traded the second copy with my friend for that Valkyrie Profile.

Thanks! I got a text from my friend asking if I wanted a weird old system for a dollar. I said yes without knowing what it was (it was a flipping dollar! She didn't know what it was and I was willing to risk it.) and thats what she brought over! =)

lol awesome! It's such a strange feeling picking a handful of games and almost having a complete collection for that console. heh 

BTW The JP cart collection you've got going on is amazing lol! If I spot some in the wild I'll let you know.

I was very happy to find that as I have handful of JPN N64 games. Let me tell you, they are a pain in the ass to get working on a US N64. =)

I got a call from a local game store, they said they got a Dino Peak and they would hold it for me if I wanted it. Needless to say I headed straight over to the shop. Paid $450 for it so nothing crazy on the price but decent!

For $450, I don't see how you could ever go wrong on a Surprise at Dinosaur Peak cart, even with a little tear in the label. I've seen much worse condition ones on Ebay. Congrats on getting it!

Thanks guys!

There got to be a point when I looked at my shelves and wondered if certain games will ever find their homes there. Yeah, I suppose I could keep my eyes on the sellers forum or ebay, but there is a bit of a thrill walking in to a store and holding something like that. I actually got a fist bump from another customer and a couple oohs and ahhs. lol
