I'm sure your heart sank once you figured out that they had put the games on the shelf. Horrible situation to walk into. Regardless, those are great NES purchases KG. Your game total for that system is quite something. Keep it up, I want to see how many you can end up with!

TwarBlackshire

 

I must admit that my heart sank when I saw The Fantastic Adventures of Dizzy.  At that point, I knew that they hadn't held any of the games for me.  The uneasiness chnaged to elation when I saw Tagin' Dragon though.  I thought that I would never find that game on the shelves.....and especially not for that low price. :D

 

Hopefully I will be able to get them all, but I find it unlikely that I will find a 1990 Nintendo Championship cart or Chetahmen II.  If I ever located one of those two in the wild for an affordable price, I would probably be speechless. :shock:

 

sorry they suck at customer support. but great finds either way.

Thanks. :)

Nice titles there. 8)

 

  • Disney Epic Mickey (Wii) New $20
  • Tony Hawk Shred (bundle) (X360) New $25 ---- I now have both Ride and Shred bundles. I have heard that they are not particulary good games, but they seem like collector's items.

someNONSENSE

It seemed as though I was seeing quite a bit of hype surrounding Epic Mickey.  Have you had a chance to play it yet?  I was just wondering if it was living up to the hype.

 

@KG- Man, great job on your NES collection! I have right around half the US NES collection at around 370, and games are becoming harder and harder for me to find out in the wild. They also just recently closed my two favorite stores within 2 hours of my house... both the Game Xchange stores in Springfield and Bloomington IL.... :(WitIsWisdom

Thanks Wisdom, I appreciate that.  Your collection is impressive as well.....with unlicensed games that I don't have like Bee 52, Double Strike, King Neptunes Adventure, Master Chu & the Drunkard Hu, Toobin', Trolls on Treasure Island, and Venice Beach Volleyball.  8)

Sorry to hear that the two Game Xchange stores closed.  I hope another chain will start up in your area.  Man, it must be hard to be a collector in your area. :(  Thankfully there is still eBay or, better yet,  you may even hit upon some deals at yard sales.  

I picked up a few interesting things since my last update:

 

  • Disk Manager 2, TI-99.4A, fine, loose, $1.95, R5, FX Videgame Exchange
  • Munchmobile, TI-99/4A, fine, loose, $1.95, R3, FX VGE
  • Super Demon Attack, TI-99/4A, fine, loose, $1.95, R2, FX VGE

  • Halo Reach, X360, n. mint, CIB, $18, R0, Pawn Shop
  • Red Dead Redemption Undead Nightmare, X360, n. mint, CIB, $18, R0, PS
  • Samurai Shodown Sen, X360, n. mint, CIB, $11.69, GS
  • Supreme Commander 2, X360, n. mint, CIB, $11.69, GS
  • Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games, Wii, n. mint, CIB, R0, $18, PS
  • Fallout New Vegas, PS3, n. mint, CIB, R0, $10, PS
  • Katamari Forever, PS3, n. mint, CIB, R0, $15, PS

I watched my kids play Epic Mickey, it looks like a fun platformer... the story is pretty neat though. it was pretty epic.

 

 

Nice finds again!

Well, I have been looking for a new vintage game store to call home... problem is, I found one, but it is over 5 hours from my house... eck. I will give the name and location only because I like you all so much (and the fact the manager said they get great business and regular shipments!) lol.

Ok, the name of the place is People Play Games, and it is located in downtown Chicago just a couple blocks from Wrigley Field (home of the Chicago Cubs).

My wife and I planned a trip to Gurnee IL for our kids to go to Key Lime Cove (an indoor water park/hotel), and Six Flags over the holiday weekend. We also went to the Jelly Belly factory in Wisconsin and to a huge mall out here, so it has been quite the adventure so far! We are headed back sometime tomorrow, but still have a few things planned :) Our kids are completely beat tired... lol

Anways, back to the new game store I found.

I looked for a place online near Chicago, and I found this store. By FAR the best game store I have EVER been to. Unlike most retro game stores that have the same 500 $3-$10 titles that are extremely common, this place has just about EVERYTHING you can imagine. Everything from CIB Atari, Vectrex, 3DO, NEO GEO, Imports, NES, SNES, GEN, Jaguar, Jaguar CD, Lynx, Turbo Grax... the list goes on and on.....

Just amazing!!! It isn't the biggest game store out there (in fact it is rather small), but it sure does pack a punch and utilizes every square inch of room with obscure and quality titles that you just CAN NOT in the wild these days!

I had a talk with the manager and he was telling me how his shop has won awards, and that people have planned trips from as far away as Rhode Island and Hawaii! Anyways though, as you can probably tell, I highly recommend this place!

I could have EASILY dropped thousands of dollars and not walked out with HALF of what I wanted, but here is what I did pick up.

1. Lock 'N' Chase (Intellivision, CIB, $4.95)

2. RISK (GEN, CIB, $3.95)

3. The Aquatic Games Starring James Pond and the Aquabats (GEN, missing manual, $3.95) I could not find this game when I searched.... only the SNES version popped up, and even it is listed entirely by the wrong name....

4. Centurion Defender of Rome (GEN, missing manual, $4.95)

5. Fatal Rewind (GEN, CIB, $5.95)

6. Gadget Twins (GEN, missing manual, $5.95)

7. Ex-Mutants (GEN, CIB, complete upgrade, $5.95)

8. Blades of Vengeance (GEN, CIB, $9.95) Been looking for this one for quite awhile :)

9. Midnight Resistance (GEN, CIB, complete upgrade, $10.95)

10. Romance of the Three Kingdoms III Dragon of Destiny (GEN, KOEI, missing manual, $11.95) check another one of my KOEI wish list!

11. Buck Rogers Countdown to Doomsday (GEN, missing manual, $13.95)

12. P.T.O.: Pacific Theater of Operations (GEN, complete with map and registration, KOEI, $14.95) and, check another off my KOEI wish list... :P

13. Landstalker (GEN, CIB, $14.95)

14. Beyond Oasis (GEN, CIB, $20.95)

Well, that's all for this outing, but I will be planning a trip back in the near future!!! I wanted to snag some decent GEN titles, and that is exactly what I did :)

I like how you found a copy of Rainbow Sick Lockdown. lol

42 games, an action replay, and a console :P During memorial week, everyone is busy doing yard sales and fleamarkets and such, that where I was staying there were tons of them going on. So in between fishing and such, I visited a few here and there. :P 

The walmart stuff I saw cause I had to get something for the place I was staying at. As for gamestop, I always make it a point to stop by one whereever I'm away as you never know what games might turn up at a little out of a way place.

As for Rainbow sick lockdown...I think it might be an interesting game :P

Lots of recent good deals in here.

Wit: cool about People Play Games.  I may have a trip to Northern Illinois in my future.

Legolas: nice one on that Saturn D&D collection.  I should get that game now that I can play imports easily, but I just haven't.

Well, I have been looking for a new vintage game store to call home... problem is, I found one, but it is over 5 hours from my house... eck. I will give the name and location only because I like you all so much (and the fact the manager said they get great business and regular shipments!) lol.

Ok, the name of the place is People Play Games, and it is located in downtown Chicago just a couple blocks from Wrigley Field (home of the Chicago Cubs).

My wife and I planned a trip to Gurnee IL for our kids to go to Key Lime Cove (an indoor water park/hotel), and Six Flags over the holiday weekend. We also went to the Jelly Belly factory in Wisconsin and to a huge mall out here, so it has been quite the adventure so far! We are headed back sometime tomorrow, but still have a few things planned :) Our kids are completely beat tired... lol

Anways, back to the new game store I found.

I looked for a place online near Chicago, and I found this store. By FAR the best game store I have EVER been to. Unlike most retro game stores that have the same 500 $3-$10 titles that are extremely common, this place has just about EVERYTHING you can imagine. Everything from CIB Atari, Vectrex, 3DO, NEO GEO, Imports, NES, SNES, GEN, Jaguar, Jaguar CD, Lynx, Turbo Grax... the list goes on and on.....

Just amazing!!! It isn't the biggest game store out there (in fact it is rather small), but it sure does pack a punch and utilizes every square inch of room with obscure and quality titles that you just CAN NOT in the wild these days!

I had a talk with the manager and he was telling me how his shop has won awards, and that people have planned trips from as far away as Rhode Island and Hawaii! Anyways though, as you can probably tell, I highly recommend this place!

 

I could have EASILY dropped thousands of dollars and not walked out with HALF of what I wanted, but here is what I did pick up.

 

1. Lock 'N' Chase (Intellivision, CIB, $4.95)

2. RISK (GEN, CIB, $3.95)

3. The Aquatic Games Starring James Pond and the Aquabats (GEN, missing manual, $3.95) I could not find this game when I searched.... only the SNES version popped up, and even it is listed entirely by the wrong name....

4. Centurion Defender of Rome (GEN, missing manual, $4.95)

5. Fatal Rewind (GEN, CIB, $5.95)

6. Gadget Twins (GEN, missing manual, $5.95)

7. Ex-Mutants (GEN, CIB, complete upgrade, $5.95)

8. Blades of Vengeance (GEN, CIB, $9.95) Been looking for this one for quite awhile :)

9. Midnight Resistance (GEN, CIB, complete upgrade, $10.95)

10. Romance of the Three Kingdoms III Dragon of Destiny (GEN, KOEI, missing manual, $11.95) check another one of my KOEI wish list!

11. Buck Rogers Countdown to Doomsday (GEN, missing manual, $13.95)

12. P.T.O.: Pacific Theater of Operations (GEN, complete with map and registration, KOEI, $14.95) and, check another off my KOEI wish list... :P

13. Landstalker (GEN, CIB, $14.95)

14. Beyond Oasis (GEN, CIB, $20.95)

Well, that's all for this outing, but I will be planning a trip back in the near future!!! I wanted to snag some decent GEN titles, and that is exactly what I did :)

Nice set. :)

 

On a sad......more like angry note.....some bratty teenager shot the driver's side window out of my car with a pellet gun.  This is the second time that my car has been vandalized in the last three months (My driver's side mirror was knocked off earlier.).  Sometimes I wish that teenagers could be thrown in jail after graduating....This crap is getting old.  It looks like I will be spending money getting my car repaired instead of buying games or saving up for my vacation.  Stupid brats.....:evil:

Yeah, I never did that as a kid.  Perhaps it is because I was disciplined when I did something wrong.  Some parents do whatever their children say.......This begs the question.....Who is the parent in that relationship?  Anyway, I have decided not to let some punk wield too much influence on my collecting....so I decided to do as I normally would (though I had to get a ride).

Nice buys KG and sorry about your broken window stuff. Sounds like you and I were raised with similar values in regards to treating others and their stuff with respect. It drives me crazy to see anyone do otherwise.

Speaking of which... every time I see one of those spoiled rich kids on youtube destroying a rare game or brand new console with a hammer or throwing it off a third story balcony, I wish someone would do the same thing to them.

Oh, and that must be one HIGH power pellet gun to shoot out a car window :O Are you sure it wasn't at least a .22 or maybe a rock? Regardless, I would strongly suggest a cheap security camera to catch the little suckers red handed!

ungrateful kids. Not to get off topic, but I remember back in the day I was so happy when i got my first TV...it was black and white but I didn't care! Loved that thing. Now so many kids are given so many things without appreciating what they got.

@witls - yea, I hate them too... I hate next to nothing... I've been hurt deeply by a lot of people and I feel no hate for them... but those pieces of trash who find it amusing to destroy things... I hate them.

 

@GCM - unfortunitly, my kids are terribly ungreatful... and aren't beyond destroying people's property...

there ya go! :)

i totally forgot about slave zero. i gotta keep that in mind. Rippin Riders is a fun arcade snowboarding game. it's worth some playtime. I loved how the dreamcast had so many arcade ports (that was awesome!)

GAMECAMILLER

Thanks for the support. :)  

It is a shame that the Dreamcast wasn't as popular as the PS2.  I am interested to see what Sega's next move would have been.....Dreamcast 2????

Nice buys KG and sorry about your broken window stuff.TwarBlackshire

Thanks Twar....and I do appreciate your concern regarding the vandalism.  

 

Sounds like you and I were raised with similar values in regards to treating others and their stuff with respect. It drives me crazy to see anyone do otherwise. TwarBlackshire

ditto on that... I really have trouble fathoming people who disrespect property... theirs or others...waflerevolution

I agree with you guys totally. 

 

Speaking of which... every time I see one of those spoiled rich kids on youtube destroying a rare game or brand new console with a hammer or throwing it off a third story balcony, I wish someone would do the same thing to them.WitIsWisdom

Why do their parents continue to buy them things when they just tear them up and don't appreciate anything?  It boggles the mind.  If I were their parent, there would be some discipline after that happened.  It would be an embarrassment to me for everyone to see such a video if I had kids doing such as that.  I guarantee that they would not get another gaming system until they had a job to pay for it themsleves.

Oh, and that must be one HIGH power pellet gun to shoot out a car window :O Are you sure it wasn't at least a .22 or maybe a rock? Regardless, I would strongly suggest a cheap security camera to catch the little suckers red handed!WitIsWisdom

If it had been a .22, it probably would have gone done more damage. The police officer and I checked the area and found no shell casings or any evidence tosuggest that a rock was used.  It happened at about 3AM and I was still up at the time with my bedroom window open.  The sound was like that of a tree limb snapping.  My first thought was that a pellet gun had been fired and it appears that is the case. 

I was considering the notion of getting 3 or 4 security cameras and set them up at multiple angles and have the signal routed to a VCR to record anything that happened.  I do have a few evergreens in the front yard, so it would be easy to conceal multiple cameras for this very purpose.  The brats had been doing that every year for a while and appear to be starting it up again.  

ungrateful kids. Not to get off topic, but I remember back in the day I was so happy when i got my first TV...it was black and white but I didn't care! Loved that thing. Now so many kids are given so many things without appreciating what they got.GAMECAMILLER

The blame falls squarely on their parents for giving them everything they want.  I didn't get everything I wanted because I grew up in a single parent home and the money just wasn't there.  I learned pretty early about being thrifty and the consequences of tearing something up.  The first time I did it, the toy wasn't replaced.......end of story.  If I tore up my brother's toy, one of my toys was given to him.....lesson learned.

My last haul was GEN, so I went the PS route this time. I got these at Disc Replay in Decatur IL.

First off my 2 GC games I picked up

1. F-Zero GX (GC, CIB, $3.99)

2. Metroid Prime (GC, CIB, $2.99)

__

3. Intellivsion Classic Games (PS, CIB, $1.99)

4. Micro Machines V3 (PS, CIB, $1.99)

5. Rugrats in Paris the Movie (PS, CIB, $1.99)

6. Top Gun Fire at Will (PS, CIB, $1.99)

7. Area 51 (PS, CIB, $1.99)

8. Tomb Raider III Adventures of Lara Croft (PS, CIB, $1.99)

9. Qix Neo (PS, CIB, $1.99)

10. Austin Powers Pinball (PS, CIB, $1.99)

11. Easter Bunny's Big Day (PS, CIB, $1.99) God I love super cheesey games like this... lol

12. Gubble (PS, CIB, $1.99)

13. Spot Goes to Hollywood (PS, CIB, $1.99)

14. Tom and Jerry in House Trap (PS, CIB, $2.99)

15. Danger Girl (PS, CIB, $2.99)

16. 102 Dalmatians Puppies to the Rescue (PS, CIB, $5.99)

17. Nightmare Creatures II (PS, CIB, $9.99)

18. Tail Concerto (PS, CIB, ATLUS, $24.99)

That's all for now. I'm thinking SNES next time.

WitIsWisdom

Nice haul.  Due to my lateness in getting the stats ready for the next system-by-system leaderboard, these games will be included in your stats.

 

EDIT:

you're kidding right? Saturn competed with the PS1 and N64, Dreamcast was with the GCN, PS2, XBOX generation.

waflerevolution

That is what happens when I stay up to late and my brain falls asleep before I do.  Yeah, the Dreamcast was definitely competing with the PS2 and not the PS1.  Thanks for catching that waffle.  I really need to go to bed a bit earlier. :oops:

[QUOTE="Republican11"]

Just recieved a strange bundle of Odyssey 2 stuff for $6 off ebay with free shipping

 

Invaders from Hyperspace (cart only)

Alien Invaders Plus(cart only) 

Two mystery games(labels are missing lol)

Two game boxes w/o games for 

BlackJack

Baseball

Eight Instruction Booklets for

Bowling/Basketball

War of Nerves

Blockout Breakdown

Football

Thunderball

Invaders From Hyperspace

Cosmic Conflict

Probably the strangest "lot" I have ever bought but I figure for $6 why not. Also, do we have an Odyssey 2 expert in this union that could identify the two games I have with no label with an ingame photo?

KGKaiju

 

$6 for all of that.......Not a bad deal at all. 8)  I don't know if I necessarily qualify as an expert perse, but I have all but 4 of the American releases of the Odyssey 2 and should be able to help you.  If you want to post the ingame photos, I will help.

 

EDIT: Added my response to Legolas_Katarn

Well I bought another lot of Odyssey 2 games for $10 and through that figured out my two mystery games.

All 10 are complete, some boxes better off than others.

Thunderball

Computer Intro

Baseball

Computer Golf

Invaders from Hyperspace

Speedway  Spin-out/ Crypto-logic

Armored Encounter/ Sub chase

Las Vegas Blackjack

Bowling/ Basketball

Alpine Skiing

Alien Invaders Plus

 

Also picked up at gamestop both for the x360 used/complete
