Paid up a bit for this one ($200, with Folklore PS3 not pictured as well).

Since I was already in the area, I hit up a couple pawn shops. $40 for the below and $55 for the second lot. Super pleased to add more ps3 collection games to the collection-collection!

Grabbed some PS2 uncommons yesterday. Paid up a bit for them but still got a good deal!

Today, I scored a load of PS3 games for pennies on the dollar. $1 a piece. Particularly excited about adding WET to the collection, and a couple more compilation games too!

Back with some more pawn shop hauls!

Paid US$38 for this lot, which I’m really happy about:FB43A01D-E7B2-4865-BA6C-0C6A0FB09864.jpeg.5230c842cba3aff5929e378fd5c42c3c.jpeg

Then I snagged some $5 games at another shop:

paid up a bit for these next ones but I’ve been looking for that Castlevania collection (flipping one of the Tales games to recoup some cost):

Finally, I happened to be near an EB Games (Gamestop) and scored on some 3DS titles!! Paid between 50 cents and $7 for each title. Super pumped about Nano Assault — now if only I could find a case!!

we are BACK and ready to rumble!!! Found a ton of promotional material lately, including this very peculiar sticker sheet of N64 Pokemon Snap DEMO ONLY-NOT FOR RESALE labels. Looking for more info if anybody knows anything. 

Also, I started posting YouTube videos of live video game hunting for the first time in over 10 years! In my most recent episode, I pick up an insane SNES + N64 + Game Boy lot including some heavy hitters like Earthbound and its Player's Guide! Paid about 30% of market value. https://www.youtube.com/@sonia1234321 IMG_8259.JPG.9c794692a4b5ef98a73e77bbbd57eaab.JPG84577975_IMG_82602.thumb.JPG.daa55ca089a465f51f29bdfd9f842795.JPG

  • The title was changed to loopie on the hunt - BABY I'M BACK 24/11/22

Took a risk on a box of "broken" games for ~$60. Xenogears and RE2 Disc 1 work fine. Swapped the battery on Pokemon Crystal, and changed out shells for ActRaiser, Inindo, and Thunder Sprits - all work well now 🙂 Radiant Silvergun looks fake to me - hoping somebody can confirm. 

I'll bring the rest of the discs to resurface at the shop and also will be attempting a trace repair on Mario RPG. The only game that looks fully unrevivable is Mario Party 4 (puncture in the disc). Still nice to have the case though.

Definitely worth it so far 😄

Got super lucky at the pawn shop earlier this week. Walked in randomly on a weekday afternoon and seemingly got first dibs on some new stock in the discount pile. Second and third row games were just about $20 for the lot, and the rest was ~30-40% off. Super delighted to finally get Okami-den, Magical Starsign, and Shining Force EXA for cheap.

Here's a video of me finding them live:
