Nice score. I picked up a few decent NES games the other day at work. Someone knew I collected old games and left a box of them on my desk the other day. Nothing really rare, but there were a few I didn't have. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jetset #3 Posted May 7, 2005 That's cool! I have my dad keep an eye out for me too! He's 69 yrs old and plays videogames! (although not much Atari...mostly playstation 1 and Genesis...) He picks up stuff from time to time...nothing spectacular yet, a few NES's, a few Genesis' and a Saturn that looks like it was buried underground for 5 years! Congrats on the find!

There is no way in hell my dad would do such a thing for me, as a kid, he hated me playing my 2600 all the time, so there is no way he would want to re-live that memory.
