I cleaned out my movie collection today and came across a few I thought someone might want. I'd prefer to trade for NES or Dreamcast games, but I will consider other offers. A lot of the dvds are from Dollar Tree but they're all in actual full-size dvd cases. All of the VHS are in good, clean working condition. Here's a list of the titles: DVD: Dementia 13 (directed by Francis F. Coppola) D.O.A. (Edmond O'Brien and Pamela Britton) Flash Gordon (90 min. of episodes from the t.v. show) Iron Monkey (widescreen) Little Shop of Horrors (directed by Roger Corman ; starring Jack Nicholson) Tales of Tomorrow (3 episodes from a sci-fi series of the same name from 1952) Tom & Jerry (9 episodes from an animated series - not the cat and mouse t.v. show) The Undertaker and his Pals (Ray Dennis) The Wasp Woman / Attack of the Giant Leeches (2 movies on 1 disc) White Zombie (Bela Lugosi) VHS: Breakfast at Tiffany's Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon Double Dragon (based on the game!) Logan's Run Meet the Parents Storm of the Century (2-cassette set) The Terror of Tiny Town (a campy western starring a full cast of midgets) Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? A few of the NES games I'm seeking : 10 yard Fight American Gladiators Barker Bill's Trick Shooting Bump n' Jump Dance Aerobics Dr. Mario Magic Darts Pyramid Taboo Tennis Videomation Whomp 'Em Wild Gunman Wrecking Crew (This is not a complete list. Please pm if you see a movie you want and have something to trade). Thanks! -Jennifer

I got the following from my husband: NES Death Race SNES Dino City Black DS Lite (the following are not classic at all but there isn't a Christmas thread going in modern gaming) Brain Age for DS 2 zipper dance pads for DDR2 on PS2 Also, my mom and sister got my husband and I a mini claw machine for our game room, but we have to exchange it because the claw broke when we opened it. A sign of quality worksmanship, no doubt Anyway, we'll get another once the return rush dies down and see if it's any better.

I'm not sure where it was exactly but I'll ask him about that and if he knows where those other stores are. Thanks for letting me know the others exist. We'll have to hit them sometime. -Jennifer

Yesterday, my husband brought me home an NES copy of Monopoly with box and instructions purchased for $2.50 from a newly (to us anyway) discovered Bargain Thrift in north OKC -Jennifer

That's a nice find! The only SNES games I find in thrifts are usually loose sports titles and they still want $5 a piece.

I found somebody to trade with but thanks for all the responses

Not to defend these long-ago defilers of video games, but one reason some people wrote their names on carts was because they loaned them out to people. Still, you'd think people could be more discreet with their ownership markings. I hate marked up games too but if it's only $1, I'll still buy it and hope most of it comes off. -Jennifer

I have 2 Sega Master System games that I would like to trade for 2 NES games if anyone is interested. The SMS titles are Altered Beast and Wonder Boy in Monster Land. Both come with their boxes, which are in good condition. Wonder Boy has the instruction booklet, but Altered Beast does not. I have cleaned the cartridges but I don't know if they work because I don't have an SMS. I haven't traded a lot but pmpddytim is my husband and will vouch for me, and I have a good ebay record under mdmjennifer if that matters. Hope to hear from someone. Thanks. -Jennifer

All from Goodwill in OKC on 89th and Penn, found yesterday. 2 Sega Master System games @ $2 each: Altered Beast Wonder Boy in Monster Land 1 Sega game $2: Comix Zone Not a great score, but it's always fun to find stuff. -Jennifer

Is there a website somewhere listing the high scores for Bookworm for GBA? I'm just wondering how many levels exist. I really enjoy the game but it seems like they'd run out of pseudo-libray/book positions to award after a certain number of levels. Thanks. -Jennifer

Not exactly thrift finds but yesterday I found Sesame Street ABC and Defender II, both for NES, at a pawn shop for $2 each. Later, I found Destiny of an Emperor and Millipede, also for NES, for $3 each at a little flea market.

Mine was the NES original console. It was just the console and 2 controllers and we had to buy Super Mario Bros. separately. Thinking back on it, I think Sears screwed us since everyone else got the pack with the 3-in-1 game, zapper gun, and power pad. Oh well, I still had a lot of fun with it and I still have it.

I don't think my preferences in game genres have changed over the years. I don't know what that says about my maturity level I still enjoy the same games I enjoyed when I was younger and still dislike those that I didn't.

My husband got me Irritating Stick for PS and a Sony Clie PDA. While the PDA doesn't sound game-related, I'm an extensive list maker and I have lots of game-related lists that I keep in paper form currently. The PDA will allow me to keep all these lists, plus those I've considered too long to keep in paper form in the past (like price guides). I can also put addresses and stuff in there too so I'm really happy to have it. Oh, my in laws got us Katamari Damacy for PS2 also. A good haul, all in all
