I am just now getting to my CGE stuff I picked up. I thought I would share some of it with you guys. I have a bunch of pics to resize and upload so I will add a few here and there. This one is prob the coolest thing I got.

Autographed copies from David Crane and Gary Kitchen on the respective games and pics of me with each of them. Very cool stuff.

So David Crane is a pretty big dude

thats pretty sweet

He is pretty big. I am 6' 4" tall and about 240 and he is bigger than me. I think I shocked a few people at how big I was, lol.

Here is my best score of the weekend though. Big thanks to bunnyboy for this one. Can't beat a real gold NWC for $20, it has a good home now

That is most of my actually game stuff. I got a bunch of promo stuff, keychains, stickers, hats, shirts and a some other random goodies but nothing all that interesting. I will post some pics of the expo in the Role Call thread later for those who want to see some of it. Make plans to go next year, it was a blast guys.

Are you FREAKING KIDDING ME? SOMEONE SOLD YOU A GOLD NWC FOR $20?  To be nice...or did they just not know better.

I do have a question for ya NGD...is the GoldenKey for resale?  I know I shipped you one brand name a few years back...someone on here may need it...just wondering.

nah, that was bunnyboy's real gold NWC, he let me hold it for a pic. Then we thought it would be funny for a laugh to put the $20 price tag on it hehe I would have at least given him 30 for it

I did pick up that spare Goldenkey off DreamTR. He had them for good prices so I figured I might as well snag another one. Not sure what I am going to do with it yet.

I like the Tech Support bag. Wanna sale it to me?

haha no thanks. I had a ton of people ask me about it. It was my carry on for the plane and the bag I used to store my stuff in. Prob the one good thing my ex g/f got for me.

Nice pickups Mr. Tall. I didn't take any pics of my pickups and I'm way too lazy to list it all. I did do an official count however, and it turns out I picked up exactly 49 CIB NES games, of which the box is an 8/10 or better on every single one. The downside is that 15 of the carts are in terrible condition and have to be replaced. I didn't want to bother opening every box to inspect before I bought, but next time I guess I'll have to. I also picked up an NWC repro and a Sudoku blue cart.

As for non-NES stuff: 4 CIB Vectrex, 6 sealed 7800, 14 loose 2600 (which is a real accomplishment since it's so damn hard to find any games you need when you're pushing 300) 4 CIB SMS, 2 loose SNES, 5 TG16 in jewel case, THunder Castle CIB for INTV, and finally.... one loose commodore cart!

BTW Jason, was the pic of me with the Gold NWC taken on your camera or Mike's?

those hong kong zelda and link carts are friggin sweet, nice haul.

Did you know that Gary Kitchen and David Crane were going to be at CGE? I can't imagine you randomly stumbled into them and had carts for them to sign, or did you find out that they were there, and buy those games from a vendor to have signed?

What is that Golden Key tyhing?

Fixed LinkHere ya go Basil I don't think anyone killed your puppy or rapped your mother in this pic. You look a tad happy in fact, prob cause you have a 10k game in your hand



Nick, the CGE website has a list of all the keynote speakers that were attending. So I knew they were both coming so I backed in the carts and got the autographs. I saw both loose carts at the expo though so I could have snagged them as well. Steve Woita was also in attendance, he programmer Tengen Super Sprint but I never found him sadly.

Skank, the Zelda II Hong Kong is a double for me turns out so it will be in my store soon.

Jared, the Golden Key is a odd adapter made by Sachen. It is for NTSC, PAL and Secam conversion. It looks very similar to a Game Genie. It is a double for me as well, not sure exactly what I am going to do with it yet. I love Sachen stuff though and they are not easy to find.

link doesn't work... can't check out the puppy murder victim...

Thanks Bronty, link fixed.

So many cool stuff! I wish i could've been there.

Make plans for next year man. Start saving a little each week now! I think the NintendoAGE crew will have a much bigger presence come next year and will be worth attending for sure.
~~NGD

I'll have to come one of these days...and I'll probably have to bring some major $$$ along with me...don't want to get caught with only $50 when there's going to be stuff I know I'll want that'd cost more than that.

I was talking with you earlier about this NGD. Next year NintendoAge has to be well represented at CGE, with at least 25 members attending, 40+ members to be optimistic.

I will be attending next year, for sure.  Hey NGD, or anyone else with a boxed GoldenKey, I'm interested in buying one. 

I might consider trading mine away. You have a trade list anywhere?

Awesome scores!
