I saw GBA Doom at a Gamestop for $24. I know this game is uncommon and looked it up on Ebay and saw someone selling both for $18 with free shipping so I just bought it that way. lol
- Doom
- Doom II

Some dude came in to my local used game store and brought in a box full of import games, but as they where going through them I guess he took most of them back. He had games from Famicom, Super Famicom, Saturn, PS1, PS2, Dreamcast. They tried to get him to sell more but he only was able to part with a few. I bought several that they did get. Most all of these where priced under $7. I didn't buy any of the PS2 games just because they where all RPG's that got a US release.

DC
- July
- Guilty Gear X
- EGG: Elemental Gimmick Gear (have the US version, just loved the cover art)
- Star Gladiator 2
- Biohazard: Code Veronica
- Maken X (cover so much better then the US release)

SAT
- Segata Sanshirou Shinkenyugi (I had to get this) lol
- Biohazard

"Happy game hunting!!!"

I'm unwell ATM (nothing major), so I went out to fill a prescription at a town I visit often, there's a particular charity shop I never go in because I found it expensive in the past. In a hurry today, so dive in that particular CS rather than any others.. bugger me! Tunguska, Xena and Legend of Dragoon on PS1, complete, 99p each. I couldn't tell you the last time I found anything exciting in a charity shop, couldn't believe my eyes when I read the spines.  :o

I've no money for big spends, but there are two titles which I wanted on release, unknown to me (until a day before) they were both released last Friday - Evil Within 2 and Dungeons 3 for the PS4. Got EW2 mail-order from CEX with a voucher, had to pay cash for Dungeons 3 as CEX messed-up the trade-in value on that one so nobody's going to trade one in till it's dropping in price. Looking forward to playing those two.

Also got/getting recently: Vandal Hearts 1 & 2 (courtesy of more CEX voucher), Resident Evil 6 PS4 (ditto), Dino Strike Wii (ditto again, hope it comes with the manual). Expecting Fire in the Flood and Caladrius Blaze from Limited Run, waiting to see if Play Asia announce anything interesting in the same vein.

Some cib games for free moreover ntc exclusives

Cadash cib excellent shape 2 player very interesting very pleased to find this one.

Than 2 games wich lack in condition but are placeholders for now. An exception since these are great games, they are cib carts and manuals are great but the covers are lacking. I'm not going to find these cheap in europe anytime soon. Didn't expect to find these titles here in the first place anyway.

Socket box inlay actually very good condition but front discoloured
Trouble shooter already knew that there was something but it was a cheap deal and I'm a cheap man. Box inlay has some strips cut of on the sides a shame. Other than that in good condition manuals and cart very nice condition if not for that.

Maybe I'll find some nice boxes in the future wich are missing the manuals orso but for now I can play these games.

Been awhile since I've done much retro collecting, I've basically stopped and decided that if I plan to do anymore, it's going to be purely boxed N64 games, so going to visit a local game shop that just re-opened into a bigger spot, I used some trades to pick up Command & Conquer, and then grabbed 1080.  Nothing super cheap, but enough that I didn't mind grabbing for now.  Thinking of going back and just asking if I buy like a half dozen or more of the cheap sports games, if he'll give me a deal lol

My goodies from Portland Retro Gaming Expo, my first gaming expo! (It was awesome.)

Einhander (PS1) and Lunar the Silver Star Complete (PS1) are two from my "Holy Grails" list, so that is awesome. Strike Gunner (SNES) & Wonder Boy in Monster Land (Master System) have been on my wishlist for far too long, so it's cool to see those get knocked off, too. The others are ones I got cheap there.

The book is by Brett Weiss, who was there, and signed the inside cover, as well as the copy of the 1989-1990 Edition I also owned and took with me to get signed.

The booklet in the upper corner is the program guide/contents of the event, and the badge below that. Up top is a free bag that they gave you.

Picked up Fire Emblem Warriors CE... that was a fiasco.  I had it preordered for shipping with Amazon and BB.  You know, because something always happens and one gets cancelled.  Well, preorders were open for so long, I figured it was safe, so I cancelled the Amazon order.  Then BB started doing an incentive program for in store pick up.  Save $1 when you do in store pick up.  I'm near my preferred BB on Tuesdays and Fridays any way, so it's a win-win.  So I switched my preorder over to store pick up.  Release day comes.  Store cancels my order 5 minutes after the store opens, because they don't have any stock of the game left.  Presumably they sold all of the preorders to first come first serve.  I have a separate story about this I'll come back to.  I go and check, if I want it shipped, it won't get here until November 1st, even with the Elite Plus free 2-day shipping.  I notice that another local BB has it eligible for in store pickup ready in 1 hour.  So I place the order and they fill it... but I don't save the $1 for in store pick up because I guess the incentive is over now.

The other BB story is that with the release of the Xbox One, with the Day One edition that you had to preorder to receive.  The store handed out the Day One editions that were preordered to the people showing up to buy the system without preorders.  Store wound up in a lot of fucking trouble because tons of people who explicitly bought the Day One edition were handed the non-Day One edition because the store sold them to non pre-order folks.

Other pick up is I got Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past CIB.  Another one of those online purchases where the seller claims it's CIB, no pictures, and it's priced at the loose price.  Came CIB with the map and everything.  NIIIIIIIIIICE.
