Still tracking down SNES commons and sports games, so as many of those as possible

So much fun!  Thank you @LeatherRebel5150 for hosting another fantastic ride on the train!  CHOO CHOO!

Disc Room is for Switch

For me...

1) NWC Gold or grey (I'm not greedy)

2) US Stadium Events (Have a PAL placeholder now...)

3) Cheetahmen !! (complete the NES unlicensed set)

4) 4-player Gauntlet Arcade Cab (Wizard needs food!)

5) NES Zelda Test Cart

Stoked for Dave the Diver

The long night continues.... Anyone got anything?

Insert Willy Wonka Suspense .gif here...

Great song. Not overplayed in my book. I tried to learn how to play it on my guitar. I'm not very good and that song confirmed it.

I just finished Murtagh by Christopher Paolini. I really liked how he expanded the Eragon world and it made me curious about his other works. Turns out he started a Sci-Fi series between the last Eragon book and this one. So, I just started To Sleep In A Sea Of Stars and its pretty good too, so far. I'm not quite halfway through it. There's also a prequel, apparently. Gonna grab that one next.

I didn't know this was a thing. Thanks! Free bump!

After some miscommunication with station staff (my wife), the train has now left the station. Tracking info has been sent to the next stop.

I figured this would take some time.  Bumping for exposure...

What's that DQ cart?

It's a repro of DQ 1+2. There may or may not be more repro SNES carts existing/added in the box... 

The box hath arrived and hast been plundered. Here is a picture of what I took. Put Friday the 13th back in as I already had it but it was out of order so I missed it on the shelf. Put back in a mixture of NES, SNES, and Switch games and paper. Should be able to send off by Thursday, but going to swing by the PO and get a new box tomorrow. 

*EDIT* There were 2 copies of a GB import and Mighty #9 for Wii U. I took them out to create more room. If anyone wants them, just let me know.

Don't forget to post pics of what you took, @Splain

I need to update my list of what I have available for Trade, but in the meantime, if you have anything on this list that isn't checked off or need any of the duplicates I have, I'd love to chat. I'm not picky on condition as long as they aren't falling apart. Just want to have a full set. Please check out the link here:

Oh, yeah.

It looks like they want in to me

I'm ready! Gonna be a fun one

Just finished Murtagh, the 5th installment in the Eragon universe. I really like Paolini's writing style. Gonna try his science fiction books next.

I like the ring of "The Fleckollection"

Do they ever run pricing specials? It looks like it's going to cost upwards of $100 per game to grade. I only have 1 or 2 I would pay that for right now.

I think CGC is the other people use. I wonder if they still have that archaic submission method where you have to like hand fill out paperwork. 
 

If you aren’t planning on selling your games, I’d leave them ungraded unless they really mean that much to you. 

It's a mix. Some I will sell, but most are for personal to keep them safe and some of it is I'm just curious too. You know? Like I have a SNES Lost Vikings 2 sealed that I got off Ebay fir $5 back in the day. It still looks pristine to me, but I've always wondered what it would grade at along with a couple of others.

I assume Wata is still the go-to, but man! I just looked at pricing and it's going to cost a small fortune to grade what I have ready. Are there any sales they run that I should look out for? Are the alternatives worth looking into?

I'm just over 4300 games now. Full NES licensed set (with PAL Stadium Events) and missing 3 unlicensed (Secret Scout, Cheetahmen II, and Myriad), full N64 set, and full Wii U set.  I also have well over 1-200 NES homebrews and repros. Got about 900ish Switch games.  525 SNES games. I'd love to complete that set if I could stop buy Switch games. It's probably time for new pics and accounting...

I assume people just don’t know what the title of the thread is and don’t bother to look maybe? 

My wife always asks what I bought now when that box shows up. I tell her it's like a mobile mystery swap shop. That's the best way I can think to describe it.
