Fushek Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Found the TRS-80 and TI-99 motherload. Around 70 TI-99 cartridges (only unique titles shown) and 45 TRS-80 cart games. These were being sold in lots of 5 to 10 at a local resell store. Did some negotiating and got them all for $85. It's been a while since I saw that many old computer carts in one place! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tupin Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Savers had quite the collection of 90's PC games new in box, and some PS2 games: Aliens is for sale in case anyone wants it. Sealed with a little tear in the upper right corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galax Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 (edited) I got a Colecovision Adam (printer, keyboard, memory console) and a C64 for CDN$10 at a garage sale last week. He was asking $8 but I felt bad. The Adam is very cool, I'd never seen one before as I don't think they made it to the UK. I have no software or cartridges and I am not sure if it is working, it outputs a blank screen, the printer moves and the cassette drive spins. The C64 is pretty fun, I've hooked it up as a USB keyboard already using a 2-line basic program. I don't have any way to load or save so the code has to be short! There's an Atari 65XE for sale near me, asking $70, and $25 for a 1050 drive. Seemed a bit steep to me (maybe I'm just influenced by my amazing deal last week)? If I end up getting a good price for it I might have to cancel some of my current eBay auctions of Atari 8 bit software...

I would say around $50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Link Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Found these complete in box at a yard sale: Army Men: Sarge's Heroes Duke Nukem: Zero Hour South Park Star Wars: Episode I: Battle for Naboo The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (collector's edition) The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Along with these loose: Banno Kazooie Hey, You, Pikachu! Pokemon Stadium Super Mario 64 1080 Snowboarding Boxed were $3 and loose were $1 so I just got them all, no VRU or mic for the Pikachu game, though, so now on the hunt for one of those. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirage Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 The C64 is pretty fun, I've hooked it up as a USB keyboard already using a 2-line basic program. I don't have any way to load or save so the code has to be short! Would you mind giving more info about this? (PMing me is fine if you prefer since this is an offtopic tangent, but others may be interested). I've heard of KeyRah and other hardware to use the C64 as a USB keyboard, but I'm not sure that's what you're referring to here... ? Thanks!

mtilly Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 picked up over 200 games this weekend. I can't list every items but I recall that there were 155 NES games alone, and lots of genesis games as well. I made multiple youtube video's covering my haul. So if you enjoy it, please make sure to give the video(s) a like! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karokoenig Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Got "early bird" lucky on today's flea market. Scored a Pong console, which are very rare in the wild around here. And it works well. I was so happy, I broke my internet silence and made a video about it - with voiceover. First time ever you hear the voice of the karokoenig in the internets: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asaki Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) I think I finally found something worth posting about B) Saw this last night before closing time, but I didn't know if $200 was a good deal or not. Came back this morning, right before they opened the doors. Very few dings, might need to replace the battery cover on the gamepad, and there's no sensor bar (but I'm just using the one from the Wii)...just got done doing a complete system reset.

Kida0723 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Picked up this Intellivision II console today! Complete with all cables, and 11 games (boxed games are all CIB). All for $20. And it works! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+thegoldenband Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 My wife picked up eleven PS1 games at a local thrift store for $1 each. Almost all of them are complete and non-Greatest Hits, including a copy of Final Fantasy VII in perfect shape. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybercylon Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Picked this up today for $5.99. Every time I quickly scroll through and see something expensive that was obtained at a great price... before I scroll back... "Oh... that is orangest again" and I am generally right. Great find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asaki Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Buy 5 get one free, $0.99 each The thrift by my house needs to have that deal =| I would probably take the whole box of 2600 games from them. $4 each is too much. But they almost always overprice electronics, so it doesn't surprise me. They have a Dreamcast right now, just the console itself, $20.

NightSprinter Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Not much, but a close friend took me to a couple of the local Goodwills where I currently live and found Dark Cloud for $4. The disc was near-mint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
