Today's plantation scores, (Play n Trades) find any 5 used games at 4.99 and under and get them for 10.00.

All these games were 2.00 bucks each except:

Secret of Mana
Final Fantasy II
Zombies ate my Neighbors

Those were 15 each.

I also picked up about 30 NES titles I needed but I never took a photo and since I already marked them off the master list and filed them away it would take me forever to dig them out but I got them at the same price as the SNES games from Play n Trade 2.00 each.

Damn right that's a win, hell MMX3 for $20 was too considering what mmx fanboys will jack that up to.

I havent really been finding much I been super busy with school and moving but I did manage to find a couple of killer deals.

Pawn Shop was selling a ton of SNES games at various prices, The shop owner told me if I bought all them plus the Capcom fighter Stick I could get them for 3 each needless to say I jumped on it quick.

The NES stuff I got at another pawn shop for 5 each.

The Miracle Keyboard I found at Goodwill, Complete (meaning with the cords to use on the NES,PC and FootPad) minus the Adaptor but I found one that fit it perfectly same voltage and amprage it was from a simular keyboard sitting next to the Miracle. 14.99 out the door works flawlessly.

So its been awhile since I have gone out on the hunt for games! And let me tell you it was a rush!

So over the last 2 day's I have found some pretty cool stuff!

All of this was from thrift stores and pawnshops, No game store purchases!

The Steel Battalion controller was found at Goodwill for 12.99 in great shape minus the one switch being broke off, still works though (no foot petals) <---- looking for a set!

The NES games and 2 SNES games were found at a ST Vincent DePaul for 3.99 each!

The N64 games were found at a Pawn Shop 2.99 each!

Xbox Robocop was found at a Half Priced Books 9.99 (worth it for the Robocop fan!)

Super stoked about that SB controller! I worked on that game back in my day's at Microsoft never picked it up due to the 200.00 price tag but finding the controller in the wild was pretty cool to say the least!

Wow great picks there. I don't blame you or anyone not wanting to blow $200 on a stupid controller, even if it was pretty damn slick for the game it's just asking too much pricing a thing like that at the same level as an entire system. Also, very nice looking KQ5 cart there, it's goodie.

i think so. i never actually played it. i just have 2 copies.

and yeah, i didn't get my copy of this game/controller until last year.  I got a very mint set with box for $60. He also gave me the 2nd game and some strategy books. I couldn't believe it.

I am insanely jealous of the finds in this topic. I go to all the thirft stores 3-4 times a week and rarely see anything of note. They all seem to have sports titles from the original X-box from when all the Blockbuster Video stores went out of buisness. Other than that, I am lucky to find a Mario/Duck Hunt more than once a month, and they always charge no less than $5 for it. You should relish what you have up there in Washington, because here in Idaho, there is nothing. I knew I never should have moved away...

Summer finds to date, This is all the stuff I have found over the summer, in the wild, Pawn Shops and Thrift Stores.

I paid 70.00 for the DS xl and games it was missing a charger and stylus, Thanks to Vallue Village I was able to get both a charger and stylus for under 2 bucks.

I have just a little over 100.00 invested (counting the DS) in this lot.

Enjoy!
