A pic of some of my recent additions to my library from eBay/Friendly Local Game Stores. The boxed NES games came from MrMark's recent eBay auctions. Bloodlines was put on hold for me at a local game shop. I had good timing when I arrived to pick it up; someone had traded in a cart of Krion Conquest which I snatched up. The Gamestop near my workplace had a small selection of N64 carts. I'm not sure if they were returns after one of the recent B2G1 free sales or if this store was just putting out local retro trade-ins for sale. In either case, I had enough existing trade-in credit at GS to pick both carts up. As far as I can, both game label's are real and in great shape and the games play fine.
At my local Savers, pricing has gone nuts for cart based systems and people are still gladly paying near-eBay prices for un-tested games/hardware. Thankfully, they're still sleeping on PS1 stuff. I grabbed both these games CIB for $5:

My son... gives me Helpful Nintendo Hints that are far too complex for the adult mind to comprehend. Here's a verbatim example: "OK, there's Ganon and miniature Ganon and there's these things like jelly beans and the miniature Ganon is more powerfuller, because when you touch him the flying eagles come down and the octopus shoots red rocks and the swamp takes longer." And the hell of it is, I know he's right. - Dave Barry
