i got my Conkers Bad Fur Day and Quest 64 in the mail the other day  :P  was pretty psyched about that
Conker's Bad Fur Day is one the my favorite games off all time.  Have you played it before?  If not, you're in for a treat.

I agree. I remember I picked it up brand new for like $20 back when it came out. I played the hell out of it too and I'd say its my favorite N64 game ever too. If you haven't played it before, be ready for a good time filled with toilet humor and movie references... and Gregg.

I've played it before although it was a loooong time ago now :) I used to own it. it was another of the many unfortunate victims of what I like to call "The Parental Yard-Sale Accident of 2007" hahaha.

Hey all, I'm new here so I thought I'd say "hello" first, and now on to my recent purchases :-)



I got this beauty yesterday from a local store. $140 dollars, but for CIB and how great of condition it's in it was a steal.  The discs have no visible scratches and the only cosmetic issue is that the case and disc are a little dusty.  Methinks it was sitting in a storage room forgotten for a while.  The store actually called me to tell me a guy was there trying to sell it, and held it for me until after work.  I find that there is great value in building rapport with local businesses :-P.



This is the other major purchase I've made this month, from the same place.  Dracula X was $70, but is CIB and has a beautiful looking box and manual.

My friend just brought me over some Game Gear games. Sonic the Hedgehog and Arcade Classics.

I don't collect or even play game gear (though I have one), but I won't say no to free games :P

Guess what I just got a deal on. 
 My very first dedicated Arcade Cabinet!  PlayChoice 10 is mine!  Picked it up for what I thought was a pretty good deal.  SMB1-3, Dr. Mario, Double Dragon, Contra, Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!, TMNT and two more I can't remember right now.  I found it in a pawn shop.  I have to pick it up Monday.  I had to wait until I could get some help moving it into the house.  Now, I just have make a good spot for it.

Those are some great games!  Congrats on the pickup!

Make sure you post some pictures of it when you get it all setup.

I did a lot of garage saleing/thrift storing/retro game storing today and walked away nearly empty handed, but the last store had a Breath of Fire 4 Prima guide that I felt I must have, so I picked it up.

Blood omen: Legacy of Kain is underrated, I think.  I really enjoyed that game.

VAE VICTUS!

I too thought it was a pretty good game!
Picked this up today from thrift store for a $1, anybody know the manufacturer of this thing? There are no markings on it.


Divineo (http://mag.divineo.cn) is the company who made them via a contract with frostythesnowman.

I have been looking for one of these cables for a long time... These are made to be used with the FrostyTheSnowMan's *fixed* Vga bios, so unless your xbox is modded its useless.

Another bit of info is it requires a monitor that supports sync on green.

Did a little game chasing today. 

Advanced D&D Heroes of the Lance (NES) $5

Ogre Battle 64 (N64) $15

I did a lot of hunting and trash digging today, and that was all I found worth picking up.  It seemed everything I found today was WAY overpriced (Super Scope for $55??)  or just junk.  Oh well, some days you hit home runs; and some days you can't even get on base.
