Found a Super NES - Donkey Kong Set cib at a garage sale, I already have two working SNES consoles so I just bought the box and styrofoam off of them for $10 since someone else was bound to want the system, now I can say I have a boxed SNES :)
Also picked up a few SNES games: Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, Tecmo Super Baseball and Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure (now the third version I have haha)

After a bit of a dry spell locally I found a pretty nice haul. Finally located a Robin amiibo at a Gamestop sorta out of the way, and also finally found Zoids Assault. I'd been looking for a little over a year I think.

Not quite, it does have a story though. :P I found it at a pawn shop, and it didn't have a price. So I ask the guy how much he is wanting for it, and he hits me with the always fun "I'll have to check it on the internet." So at this point I'm just like oh well, he comes back and says 16$. I wasn't going to question it so I just said ok, paid and left. I was fairly certain it wasn't a repro from just looking at the label and it had a rental sticker on the back so I took the chance. I checked the board when I got home and sure enough it is legit. I go and check the sold listings on Ebay and the whole first page is just repro carts that had sold for around 16~18$. My guess is he went off that, so I was just at the right place at the right time.

Usually I don't post in these threads, but I wanted to make an exception due to acquiring a game I've wanted for years. Technically, I got this in May but eh...details.

I was visiting MrNikon in Chicago over Memorial Day weekend. He was going to show me around some of the more non-touristy areas of Chicago, so we agreed to meet near one of his favorite game stores. I got there ahead of him so I putzed around some other stores for a bit. I stopped into a clothing store that some really awesome stuff. So I picked up some fierce shoes and an adorable pair of shorts.

Eventually, MrNikon and I met at the game store (great place, btw) and began some perusing. One of the first things I saw was the game I wanted. So, the two of us left the game store and returned to the clothing store. I returned everything. I told the clerk, "Sorry, I saw a video game I really wanted so I have to return all of this stuff. But, I'll take some of this chapstick because I really like your store." Amusingly, the clerk understood.

We shoomed back to the game store and, eventually, I walked out with a gorgeous (CIB) copy of Burning Rangers for the Sega Saturn. It's been tested and works like a charm. I'm really stoked because I wanted this game for quite some time, plus I was able to buy it while hanging out with one of my favorite folks in the world. Solidarity.

It was a great weekend in Chicago and now I have an amazing souvenir to remember it.

Too lazy to post a pic, but I found Clock Tower on the PS1 for only $35 last night. Some video game store slippage there.

I'm curious everyone always talks about opening a cart to check if one is legit.

What if you find a minty card and the board is legit but the label replaced with a fake because the old lable one was in bad condition.

I mean if it really is that hard to spot if a cart is fake from the outside It's a pretty easy way to increase the value of an expensive game in bad condition.

Anyone?
