2600Lives Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Mwaaahahahaha! Found me a Swordquest Waterworld today. Loose. Good condition label. Price? .99 cents. WOOOOT! Nice. JUST WHAT IN THE WORLD IS YOUR AVATAR LOOKING AT??? ABOUT LAUGHED MY ASS OFF! 2Girls1Cup? It's the Nerd's reaction upon seeing a guy, upside down, in a chicken mask from the game Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. It really comes out of left field, and for a game THIS friggin' bizarre, that's saying something. The narraror just inexplicably shows up that way, and it blows the poor Nerd's mind. James expressions are one of the funniest things about him, I've always thought. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asaki Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 It's the Nerd's reaction upon seeing a guy, upside down, in a chicken mask from the game Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. The sad thing is, that video really made me want to play the game =| Couldn't find it anywhere online at the time, though...maybe times have changed.

the.golden.ax Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Man I wish I hadn't been strapped for cash today! Hit goodwill today because I left something behind by mistake and was missing it since Saturday. Just hadn't had the gas or time to get back to that side of town. Front counter, a stack of CIB Sega CD games for 49 cents each. Grabbed a few, but couldn't get most of them. Spent my checking available balance of $12.57 down to 57 cents. Now I'm really really broke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
31336haxx0r Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 This sucks, man! I know how that feels. When I was a student, I was permanently low on cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybercylon Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 When it finally becomes time to be "Some Guy", chances are, you will be low on cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asaki Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 (edited) Found one of those first run Playstations today, the ones with the RCA ports on the back that are supposed to be super audiophile. Probably would've gotten it if it wasn't $25, but I don't really care that much Edited April 20, 2012 by Asaki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the.golden.ax Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Went back to the goodwill with the 49 cent genny and sega cd cib games again today and they were all gone (doh!) but I was able to get some cords I needed that will enable me to sell a few more systems.

Reaperman Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I was surprised to see a 360 wireless racing wheel for $15 without power supply. Reliability on these is pretty low but I took the risk. Power supply for it was $7, but that was from china, so it will be a while before I can fully test it. I was really wondering how I was going to be able to afford a wheel for that system. On that same trip, I took a risk on a $15 Blue Angels Citizen Nighthawk and that one did not work out very well at all. I guess you win some (hopefully) and you lose some.

the.golden.ax Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Someone tried to sell me a pallet of defective 360 racing wheel best buy returns @ $10 each. I passed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARCZero Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I have had a string of good luck lately: - Dreamcast System Disc 2 for $2.50 - Pocky and Rocky 2 for SNES for $5 - Odyssey boxed in great shape. I paid $150 which is probably market value, but I'm happy about it because I have been searching for one in good shape for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asaki Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 King's Quest Collector's Edition-$4.99 at Salvation Army. I just grabbed Space Quest 6 on CD-ROM the other day ($2) because I thought I had the Space Quest collection that doesn't include 6. Got home and checked, and I was wrong =/ Oh well.

Asaki Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Found a near-mint copy (some notes in the rulebook) of Gamma World (4th Edition rules) for $6 yesterday, with both expansions already in the box. Unfortunately all of the cards are missing, so I guess I'll have to make my own =/ Also snagged Bruce Lee: The Master Collection for $8, and they also had Enter the Dragon separate. Now I just need to get A Warrior's Journey and I'm set (though I might need to replace some of them with the superior import versions).

You mean like Turbo the arcade/Colecovision game as a board game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seob Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 It's based upon sega's arcade version, but since turbo for the colecovision is based upon the same game, you could say yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to play that game in the arcade all the time. Nice find! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asaki Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Can't wait to hit up flea markets and garage/yard sales, but the weather's not quite there yet. I've seen a couple, but they were just clothes/baby stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
