Tanooki | 4,934 Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 That Real Bout Fatal Fury Special is easily in the top3 Takara NeoGeo-GB chibi conversion games they did by a good margin. The quality that went into that cart, like they did with the 2 Samurai Shodown releases go well above and beyond. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason this game always looks so beaten up when I see it come up. I got it from a local guy, he also sold me the Initial D Gaiden and threw in a CIB Space Invaders which I actually didn’t have yet and that was in mint condition (forgot to take a picture of it). So I was pretty happy with that deal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanooki | 4,934 Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Well I guess I've forgotten to bring up anything of interest I dug up over the month of June so far. First we start with the oldest. There was this post online locally for $60 for a stack of movies, wanted a 1/3 of them, they were some choice anime and guy sold me for that much off so this stuff was $20. If you know it, you know it, and this was a steal. And then back on the 10th there was a few neighborhood wide garage sales in an area I had a bit of time to go over, mostly a crap out, except this one home at one, and another home at another, and another. The first had all those nice PC games, manuals, guides for $2. Another area I got that badass cool spot(reverses to a basketball) with splinter there for 50 cents. Saw this GC but I wasn't greedy, asked for a spare controller (as I have a spare black gc stored away) and got it for $5. The badass little aerobee there was a dime, and the retro mag was a dollar. The winner was that merchandising thermometer, that was just $10 which is a steal (and it works.) And then today went out of the county to save a lot on gas (we have crooks in this county) and hit the outdoor flea market. One vendor had that 1999 Gremlins Gizmo Furby ($3) (he wasn't sure it worked it does) and another I got the Joe ($2). A third was $20 but got the 2 NES games and that GBA cart. Swung back to town because I knew half price was doing a 1/2 of movies sale, got Sky Crawlers at the further for $3. Goodwill blew me away they had some of the heavies (I already had though, tipped a very very grateful friend off) and got those 2 games for $45 and they're spotless. Then at the final half price I got Nadia ($25) and Tropic Thunder ($3) which I just finished watching. Not imaged, since we shitcanned Disney+ months ago with a few other useless services, got a big stack of their classic and modern animated movies we were missing on blu ray, hook too a kids movie not disney, also a couple dvds at half off which was insane. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiamiSlice | 3,096 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 (edited) Various things that have arrived since my last post Found out about this Pac Man x 7-Eleven collection and couldn't resist getting some new threads. I'm a sucker. Learned about this promotional thing via eBay and waited a while to nab one at a decent price. Here's what's inside: This ACNH guide took forever to finally get printed. I was sitting on my preorder for a long time. I don't even see myself going back to the game at this point. Various things that were on sale on Amazon. I didn't need them but the deals got me. Finally scored a Korean Nintendogs. It's got some wear but it's the first time I've seen one at a decent price. I still collect My Nintendo rewards. I'm still at a full set and chugging along. There's some other recent pickups that I didn't take pictures of, like the hardcover Breath of the Wild guide, and other stuff I'm forgetting. But this is the one big purchase I made recently: I could have had this for less if I had pulled the trigger a couple years ago. I paid the premium for waiting. This is the last big purchase that I felt FOMO about. Probably no more expensive purchases for me. I have it and I can stop thinking about it now. That's all until next time!

DoctorEncore | 3,691 Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Finally got my Playdate and couldn't pass up on a copy of Zelda for $40 from QVC of all places. Haven't played either yet, but going to mess with the Playdate later today. Last pic for size comparison. It's tiny! 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptOut | 8,889 Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 In Japan at the moment! I've pretty much single handedly raised the GDP figures for this year by at least a couple points, most likely! Obviously, mainly focusing on my Mega Drive set, naturally, although I did strike off THREE more 32X games I needed which is HUGE movement on that set. These 30 odd MD games now put me comfortably over 300 games for the set now, it still feels like a long road ahead, but this is amazing progress I'm pretty happy! Unfortunately we will be leaving in a few days, so I doubt I will be doing anymore game hunting, and I have spent a disgusting amount of money, so I think we'll call this good for now! 8 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki | 4,934 Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 So I ended up doing a couple of those small flea markets across and south of town yesterday. It was mostly a loss, but someone setup a spot wanting to offload a few of their old store merchandise stuffs of games, had quite a bit out but mostly commons so far. Most the NES/SNES stuff was either $5 or $10 which is fine, but didn't see one at first that screamed at me. Then then I found a $10 tag on F-117 Stealth Fighter for NES...wow. That was a win as it appears it sells for twice that or a slight bit higher for a copy as clean as this one. And going about as I had to loop around I went into a peddlers mall I haven't in awhile and wow... grabbed this strange toy and amazingly it's new old stock too. It is or isn't a knockoff, maybe a regional release is more accurate of a toy from 40 years ago. Runs on a couple batteries, has 2 different walking modes and a driving mode. Robot Car here has a heat sealed bag there with the added truck parts, front grill, and the metallic claws and missiles all still on the tree. It cost me $30 which was fine. It sits on a shelf with my new first year tomy zoid that's new in the box from Japan and also from there a new Space Sheriff Sharivan too. I'm torn on opening it up or leaving it alone. It's Made in Taiwan, but the manual is english/french which makes sense since the distributor I was able to dig up is from Ontario. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, so I got another store in! Contra: Hard Corps... Need I say more? Not cheap, but an absolutely ESSENTIAL purchase. I also got this, which I will have to do a FAR deeper dive into when I get back home: Apparently this is a 2022 music album released by the German artist Remute on N64. It uses the inbuilt audio chip of the N64 as a synth to play the album, all native sounds from the system itself! I am VERY excited to get this home and play it, as I had know IDEA it even existed until I spotted it in the bottom of one of the glass cases in Super Potato. I will report back with more after I listen to it! 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
