I suppose I'll post what is pretty much all month's additions.
(Not shown: Liberty or Death (cart only) and Mechwarrior 3050 (replacing lost cart))
SNES CIB:
The box on RotK IV was in a bit worse shape than I expected, but that's what I get for experimenting with a ebay auction with a stock photo. The contents were in great shape, so I'll live. Sim City and Liberty or Death were both pretty much mint, and both came in their protective boxes (or, how to tell you are buying from another collector...) I actually bought two in-box Daffy Ducks to part together a decent CIB, which means I'm up to three copies of the game right now. xD; I'm giving the extra box and game set to a friend, and I've thrown #3 under my bed with the other extras.
NES CIB: Due to argued ownership of DW II-IV (my mom and I are hopeless, long story
,) I'm trying to get another set of CIBs of them all. DWII is missing the mailaway map, but DOES have that mailaway guide book, which was pretty rare. I'll get the map later.
DWIV is missing the weapons "map," and the label of the game is a bit sunworn on the spine, but ditto on the map getting later. For some reason, the guy included the original instructions to DWI, which I think he thought was part of the set.
3DS: Picked Zelda: LBW up complete, and in great shape from a Gamefly sale from earlier in the month. $25? Not too bad.
DS: The Kingdom Hearts one looked cute, so I picked it up while in a shopping mood a few days ago. It's still sealed. 5th Grader was a $1.25 addon ebay purchase to another item I was buying for a friend. Not too bad.
As for the other two? So, there's this nice fellow on NA who sells these random boxes of stuff, and I bought one from him. I ended up with a bunch of little bits I didn't need, two NES accessories I still haven't tested, 3 DS games, two of which I kept, 3 SNES games, two of which I'm keeping, a pile of XBox games, all of which were given away at work, a CDROM game too damaged to use, a few PS2 games I gave away, random 80s systems paper which I need to give away to someone, and these two CD-I games I need to sell for a few bucks or something. They appear to be in pretty great shape.
Wii: Cooking Mama was bought at a garage sale for $1. Disk is a bit scratched, but I think it'll work fine. The other 3 games were purchased at GS with a coupon.
PS2: Ring of Red is a replacement, because I like the game and I have no idea where my original disappeared to. RotK VIII is part of my goal to have all of the games in the series.
PS3: Jeopardy was bought the same time as Kingdom Hearts. LEGO Hobbit is actually round two, which I really should open. I returned my original after I noticed the case had a big crack, and the game was very jerky in the FMV sequences. Hopefully that was just a bad disk? :/
NES/SNES: The NES games were bought for $10 together at a garage sale. Yes, I know I overpaid, I was feeling too lazy to haggle. The SNES games were part of the random box.
Repros: This is probably it, barring me buying a Mother 3 somewhere or DQ: Caravan Heart suddenly being offered :3 All appear to work great, which is what I wanted. Kinda wish he would clean the cases before recycling them, but that's an easy fix. xD;
And, with this, I'm going on video game shutdown. I've bought far too much stuff in the last few months, and I need to curb it. I've got Hakuoki on order, but besides that, I'm keeping my play budget very low for the next few months to pay down my credit card...
PS: Don't leave all this stuff out when you have a cat. I turned around to find her walking across $100s of dollars in video games... ^^;
