this week has been great:

MUSCLE complete $10.95
Caltron 6 in 1 with sleeve in trade for 2 Neo Geo MVS games with shockboxes
Arkanoid complete less plastic tray $12
Dragon Warrior IV complete  $45 delivered (from Ebay)

and the #1:

Chubby Cherub complete in Box but in rough shape

and more trades to get me under 50 games needed for complete cart collection for NTSC
Not bad considering I started collecting NES in February when I only had about 25 NES games in my collection that I played for years.  Traded my Wii for about 100 or so games, PSP for another 50, and then bought a store out locally which had another 125 and then traded for big lots of stuff

If it's CIB, i'd be interested in that Pirates Gold dupe

-------------------------


"It's always amazing to me how some of the most worthless games from a gaming perspective tend to fetch outrageous amounts of money. But then again, it could be said that something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I'm curious if the high bidder of the $873.04 Stadium Events (cart-only) realizes that it's nowhere nearly as rare as about 20+ games I can think of that sell for 1/10th that amount?  At any rate, I wanted to draw attention to this trend: if people say it's rare, it must be true, and therefore it must be had at any price."

Nice work Jeff! I'm not sure if you still need anything from me, but I'd be willing to trade some thing(s) for your spare vaus controller if it works and is in good shape!
