Another awesome gaming swap meet today. Weather was beautiful and the deals were plentiful. Definitely the highlight were the PS1 games.

You founding Jumping Flash 2 at a swap meet? Dang-it biking, you aren't the Flea ya know.  I found nothing today.

The Flea's 10k+ collection laughs at mine, especially his weekly pickups :p.

These great finds are few and far between these days for me. I probably only get this lucky once every 3 or 4 months.

Wow nice. That Namco Museum Vol.4 has some good  games on that disc; I'm still looking for one myself.

Decent sized haul that wasn't too heinous on my wallet (at least not individually...collectively is another story  ). Tom and Jerry Tales came from a local mom n' pop/arcade place near me and was $10. The Darkness II and Tom Clancy HAWX came from GameStop and were $4/$2 respectively. TRON Evolution for PC was found on clearance at a Meijer for $3. Ridge Racer 6 and KidFit came from a different GameStop and were $10/$2 respectively. I've been after Ridge Racer 6 for a while now so it was nice to finally find it.

DK: Tropical Freeze was from another GameStop. It was the original Non-Nintendo Selects packaging. I got that along with Pikmin 3 for $15 each because GS was running a Buy 2 @ 14.99 or higher and get $5 off. The Pikmin 3 I gave to my cousin for his birthday that was earlier in the week. At the same stop I also picked up the MySims: Agents for $5 and the SW Battlefront: Elite Squadron for $8. A different GS about 15 minutes away from that one had the Kamen Rider game for $5.

Hit up a couple of Flea Markets today. There's a big one and a smaller one literally across the street from each other (well across the highway) and we usually do the big one first and then sometimes hit the smaller one but reversed it today and hit the small one first because they sometimes have better outdoor vendors. That wasn't the case today as we largely struck out on the outside vendors though I did find the Forza Motorsport 3 along with four DS games, Barbie Horse Adventures: Riding Camp, Tangled, My Horse & Me: Riding For Gold & I Love Horses (I'm guessing the little girl who owned them prior to me had a thing for horses  ). The DS games are for my roomates' kids while the Forza is for me (honest!  ). The lot of them cost me $4 each or $20 all together.

Inside the smaller flea was much more lucrative. I found a newer vendor there who was still setting up from the looks of it. From him I snagged the 3 Armored Core games for $3/$5/$5 and Airblade for $2. He also had a nice condition (and Non Nintendo Selects packaging) LOZ: Twilight Princess for Wii priced at $12 along with DBZ: Sagas priced at $5. He ended up giving me all six games for $20. About a half dozen booths down the hall was another video game vendor who had the Genesis Monopoly and the TRON Evolution: Battle Grids for $3 each. A different vendor had the Skylander figure for $2 and the Spyro GBA game for $4. Yet another vendor had the AvP Steelbook and Luche Libre. He had them marked at $15 and $8 but let them go for $20 together.

We then ventured across the street to the bigger flea before they closed so I could see if my usual guy had anything new. His place is where I found the Bust-A-Move 4 and DBZ: Legacy of Goku Carts along with a GunCon 3 for PS3. That lot ran me $20. Of course after I got home, I researched the GunCon to see if it could work on a flat screen TV and realized I didn't have the connectors for it so that will probably be going back along with that BAM 4 duplicate.

I'm still taking advantage of the live membership so Saints Row IV was downloaded for free, dunno what the hell did they smoked when the game was developed want to believe that they were so freaking high cause the story is kinda ridiculous, it's the first game that I ever played of this franchise and I totally liked anyway Strider and Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix had a 75% this past week so added both of them to my Digital collection, paid less than 7 bucks for both titles which was a nice deal cause their prices of each one of them without the discount is more than 8 dollars I do prefer physical copies but since there aren't physical versions of this last two

Not too bad of a find at the thrift store today.  Gamecube, complete with two controllers (One needs a new left stick), cords, controller extensions, and to my surprise since it was in a bag and I didn't notice, it came with a Gameboy Player (no disc sadly) and a copy of Wario Ware inside.  I still don't know yet if it works, I'm hoping it is, because 25 bucks isn't too bad at all.  Surprised at that price as usually the consoles tend to go for twice that most of the time, and then I saw two original DS handhelds for 40 a piece, when they are usually sub-20 lol

Indeed was an excellent purchase here in Mexico just the Gameboy Player without the mini disc cost more than 40 bucks anyway can I ask why you haven't tested this little fella ?,  are you in your work too

Lazy mostly lol I'll get to it here in just a few once I find where I put my razer at to cut these straps on the cords.  I have my own GB Player disc, so I can check it out too.

*EDIT*
And GC works just fine.  I'll clean it up and it's good to go.  Just need to test the Gameboy Player, though I'm sure it's fine, I just don't know where my disc for my other is at the moment.  Wish it came with the disc though, I heard the discs are more expensive than the player itself lol

Got Snake's Revenge finally thanks to Amazon.

I just bought a shitload of games in a humble bundle. Telltale had a bundle going. I think it's going until midnight.

It's a load of point and click games. I won't add them to my collection, and I have a bunch of them on disc; but I think it'll be worth the $12 I spent.

It's a great collection of games - I would've jumped on that real fast had I not already owned most of them.
