That Odyssey 2 lot is very nice Flea!  I like the silver detachable controllers a lot more than the wired versions.  I have never seen that promotional display before.  What games did you get?

- Speedway / Spin-Out / Crypto-Logic
- Thunderball
- Sub Chase / Armored Encounter
- Baseball
- Cosmic Conflict
- Football
- Bowling / Basketball
- Showdown in 2100 AD

I got Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town, Sonic Advance 3 and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga this week. Been looking for that Harvest Moon for a while 

Also, when I booted Sonic, it was all in Japanese and I was pretty confused, but happy at the same time to have a new Japanese game! And then I noticed in the settings that there are 5 languages on the cartridge.  haha.

Since garage sale-ing this weekend was a total and complete bust, I swung by Gamestop Sat. night & grabbed some cheap games:

SNK Arcade Collection Vol. 1 (Wii)
Soulcalibur Legends (Wii)
Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz (Wii)
Bust-A-Move Bash! (Wii)
Fracture (PS3)

$18.50 total after tax.

Hit a bunch of garage sales with little luck.  Manage to snag:

PS1 - Gauntlet Legends (disc only) $1
PS2 - Final Fantasy XII (disc only) $1

Dropped into Goodwill and found some good, complete GC games for $4 each:

Mario Kart Double Dash
Mario Power Tennis
Mario Gold Toadstool Tour (x2)

Isn't that one of the rarest manuals on the SNES? I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to box/manual rarity, but I'm pretty sure I've heard about this somewhere.

[darko]

Yes. It's very difficult to acquire. It was a very late release, and a terrible game.

After searching for some time I found a seller that wasn't asking 50 plus for one. This one happens to be from Japan.

Aren't the Yoshi controllers supposed to come out in the US at some point?

They are out in Japan and Europe only and have never been announced for NA yet. I'm still hoping, though... I don't see why they wouldn't.

Hrm, that sucks. For some reason I thought they had been announced over here & I was waiting on it.  It's definitely my favorite of the themed controllers. 

[badATchaos]

Who knows? It still might come to North America. lol I've got bitten on foreign releases before. I bought the Wii Mini in Canada a few months before it was announced for the states.

Many news outlines were reporting in April about the Peach and Yoshi theme controllers coming out May 30 along with Mario Kart 8. What many of them didn't mention was that the official statement was from NoE. NA got the Peach Wiimotes at least. I've only seen them at GameStop though. Have any of you seen them elsewhere?

[turf]

Walmart has the Princess Peach Wiimote.
