Ah, so you found the secret room, eh? Bask in the glory of a Mario Trilogy, a Pair of Zeldas and a Sextet of Megamans. Yes this is the little grey box that could and continues to do. What lies ahead is entirely up to you. YOU DECIDE

I don't even have the game, but figured I had to take a flyer on anything that cheap.  So tonight I checked eBay...

Someone just bought it for $100.  Man am I glad I wandered into that store...

Walked into a thrift store like I do every week and headed straight to the kid's books first like I always do.  And every time I do, some part of me says "get to the video games before someone beats you to it."  And I never do because what are the odds that 5 seconds is going to matter?

Well I eventually walk over and some guy has just pulled a stack of NES games out of the display case.  Literally the 2nd time I've ever seen NES carts in the wild in this town.  I approached him and saw Stanley on the top and cursed my luck.  I tried to ask him if there was anything good but he obviously didn't want to look at them with me, like I was gonna mug him or something


So, oh well.  But what I assume was the same donation yielded a bunch of interesting strategy board games, which I bought.

Garage sale at Mr. Jaguar's house

I haven't beaten any of those damn SNES games, so maybe now I can turn things around.

And then I hit up a thrift store for the books

I never look for games anymore; no point when the area has dried up.  But I do look for books.  And what do you know, I found games.  A few bucks each at GW.  I was surprised to see PSOI&II is around $45

If you have tried to text me about anything in the last million years, I'm on my approximately 40th phone of the year, so  I didn't get it ><
