New Acquisitions, Volume 14

 

I picked up:

• Radiant Historia, DS, new/sealed, $34.99, Gamestop
• Mario Party 5, GC, v. fine, no manual, $5.99, Pawn Shop (fodder)

and received in the mail:

• Spider-Man, SMS, v. fine, complete, R5, $36.09 shipped, this is the US Release with the UPC sticker

this leaves James "Buster" Douglas Knockout Boxing and a US-release Sonic the Hedgehog, and I'll have the whole US catalog.  Unfortunately, I've never seen a US Sonic and they are reputed to sell for $500+ when they appear.  There was a Buster on eBay this week in nice shape, but the seller wanted too much for it.gmsnpr

nice to see you hit another one. also, I believe I have a manual for said game.

Bejweled Blitz Live (XBLA) was added to my collection to keep me alive. Any CCU members that need help getting the combined 1 million score achievement feel free to add both of my accounts. (pikadeth/not pikadeth)

In other exciting news I finally got a new camera that can take HD video so a video tour of my collection may happen eventually when I stop being lazy.

I liked Beyond Good & Evil back when it was a PS2/XB/GCN game... the HD seems unimportant. and I paid a lot less for it.

Finally got my hands on the mouse/pad for the SNES Mario Paint game. Still need the box/manual but at least I can use the game now. Cost $5 and it is all in VG shape.TwarBlackshire

I have all that too... I just need the box though.

I know a few people over the last 10 years have gotten pretty close to it... but I can't remember if anyone owns a full library... I am only missing 2 or 3 Ngage gmaes...waflerevolution

I loved Batman Vengence.

Craigslist purchase... (paid $35 for games and $15 for console/expansion)

1. TurboGrafx16 Console and TurboBooster Expansion w/o cords and controllers (tested it and it works perfectly)

2. World Class Baseball (TG16) VG complete

2. Power Golf (TG16) VG complete

3. Bloody Wolf (TG16) VG complete

4. The Legendary Axe (TG16) VG complete

5. Bonk's Adventure (TG16) VG complete

*luckily I already had a working TG16 with controllers. I couldn't pass up on another console as back-up in case my first one goes bad. The games were a no brainer as TG16 games are rare in my corner of the world and I was happy with the price.

Thanks to the midnight release of DAII tonight, I will be picking up MLB2K11 (360) at midnight and will be going for the Million Dollars...I sure the hell could use it!

A couple more adds to the collection as well:

Wild ARMs 5 (PS2) Complete "Series 10 Anniversary Edition"

Radiant Historia (NDS) Pre-order release with soundtrack. Been playing this a few days now...it's really very good!

Digital Devil Saga (PS2) Complete, Used

Digital Devil Saga 2 (PS2) Complete, Used....Was there a cover art variant released for this game? I purchased the one with the cover that is very similar to DDS1 as I assumed it was the original release cover...but I'm still not sure and cannot find anything online other that pics of the different cover art. (For an example, search for DDS2 on Ebay as both covers are being sold.)

You can flip the cover art around on DDS2.  Both sides of the paper cover insert have art.

AHHHH...Thank You! Damn, I could have bought one a little cheaper then...lol, oh well.

Also, an EDIT on the MLB2K11. The Million Dollar contest doesn't start till April first. So my happy butt will be fast asleep at midnight tonight instead of waiting in line. Somehow, my day got a little better when I found this out a few minutes ago.
