adams_ale Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 Just picked up Spy Hunter and Piece o' Cake at the local pawn shop for a total of 2 bucks. They both work just fine after I cleaned them and they look good. That is the first R6 I've found in the wild and I was just about to buy Spy Hunter on Ebay. Happy Days are here again! Rare Atari games found in the wild now: Tooth Protectors(they knew it was rare and it is in great shape; paid 80 dollars); Picnic, Piece O' Cake, and Spy Hunter for a total of 3 dollars.

AtariLeaf Posted June 26, 2004 Share Posted June 26, 2004 Got 10 NES games for $15 bucks: Gold Zelda Mafat Conspiracy Burai Fighter Infiltrator Yoshi's Cookie Loopz Donkey Kong Classics Shadowgate Faxanadu Skate or Die The only bummer was that I found when I got home that the Gold Zelda had a piece of the case broken off near the bottom. Circuit board is fine and plays well, but a bit of a downer. A good mix of games for my trade/sale list anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeV0 Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Excellent, an automatic famicom collection! 80 famicom discs? cassttes?? for $3. The majority are unique jap releases like doki doki and super mario 2 which is the missed levels? or some such thing on the snes allstar cart. Only problem here is that I cant for the life of me find my famicom disk system. found 2 ram adapters but as for the disk system? ah well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Tomlin Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Found a Commodore 128D yesterday for $25. Base unit, keyboard, 2001 monitor, Y/C video cable, serial cable. I noticed that a keyboard alone went for $26 recently on ebay. This is only the second one that I've found in the wild. And it's not a thrift find, but today I think I've figured out the finer points of burning self-boot DC discs under OS X. I burned a controller tester disc, and a Dcolem that didn't have three copies each of half the ROMs, and it uses long file names too.

SteveW Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 I haven't been thrifting lately, because it's always dry around here. But I went out today, and actually found some great deals! An Atari 5200 2-port, with the power supply and two controllers, plus Pac-Man, Joust, Dig-Dug, Pole Position, Mario Bros., Moon Patrol, Galaxian, Q*Bert, and Popeye - all for $7.05, with tax. (The woman who got it out from behind the counter for me told me that it was half off, so it should ring up around $3.50, but the non-English speaking register girl didn't figure that out. I didn't make a fuss, I knew I was getting a deal!) A Beeshu Striker Sega Genesis control pad, in box, with a headphone jack built in, $2.50. The Simpsons - Bart vs. The Space Mutants for the Sega Game Gear, $5.99. Panzer Dragoon, new, for the Tiger R-Zone, $1.25. RoboSport for the Mac, (great for my old Powebook 180C) $1.00.

donkeykong1 Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 There are a couple of Super Famicom units, accessories incl. at one of the local Thrift. 15$ each. Are they worth it? I think so. I bought a Super Famicom today for $10.00, it came with 2 controllers, rf switch and a Genesis power cord. Also a disk Drive that attaches to the top.?!? So I need an extra power cord for the Super Famicom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole set for $21.50 I also found a JVC X'EYE with 4 controllers, no power or video cables, but came with 6 boxed Sega CD games, 1 boxed Genesis game, 1 boxed Japanes Megadrive game, and 3 loose Genesis games. All for $20.00 Four NES games: Gun Smoke, Donkey Kong Classics, Athletic World and Galaga. All for $10.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mynameistom22000 Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 My latest thrift finds: NES Action Set, in box, Zapper, 2 controllers, all hookups, and three games: Guerilla War, Wheel of Fortune, and SMB/DH for 20$. 'Twas my best find ever And then went back a few days later and picked up: grey Legend of Zelda, Double Dribble, Bases Loaded, and another SMB/DH for 6.45$ total... That thrift store has been good to me but now all they have is a ton of sports games for Genesis that I don't want! They need to clear those out and get more NES games...but I might go back and buy some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
