  1. Happy Friday Not much gets again this week, haven't been adding much because we might be closing on a house on the 22nd of this month I don't wanna jinx anything but we're so close!! All from the thrift: Up top, on the left is a USB barcode scanner that I hope to use to catalog the collection one day but $4 heck ya. Premiere ball Pokemon TCG deck holder I hope to maybe mod to fit a GBA sp instead of card deck. 50c GoldenEye guide woo, I kinda dig that it has a local address. $5 each for guitar hero Metallica and nfs shift and a buck for the Wii sensor bar. Have a great week yaaaaalllll
  2. I have a cruisin usa box in my collection of the regular edition with players choice sticker on it that I got from eBay from a seller clearing out former rental boxes I thought it was neat, I kinda thought it was up to the retailer to put the sticker on old stock, and this probably came from a place that sold new games as well as pre owned(my thought is blockbuster but not sure, no sticker on the back of the box) But Diddy has a sticker for 98 racing game of the year too, so maybe it is from a factory? or maybe a poor retail employee had to stick on 2x the stickers definitely interested in hearing more if anyone knows the story.
  3. Hey it's Friday! This week I didn't end up getting any games, little chaotic around here but I did find a pretty decent denon receiver to add to the setup Denon avr-4311ci Wooo look at them ports. This guy came out late 2010, so even with all those tasty HDMI ports up top they're only 1.4a so no modern lovely 4k but a great fit for the PS3/360/Wii era and back, as well as movie/music playback. So many options, so many ways to potentially set up. 140w per channel, 9 amp channels but supports more if you choose to stack another amp with it, going up to 11.2 whoooo I doubt I will go there because the internal amp is enough for me but super cool to have that option. Haven't had the time to really test 'er out but hooked up a pair of bookshelf speakers and it sounded pretty good to meeeee. Have a wonderful weekend, see ya next Friday
  4. Super cool! You should email stan at nwcomputers and ask about it, the old school vibe of that site (updated 2021) seems good odds that the person in charge has been there for a while and could know the origin.
  5. Operation darkness published by atlus might have a smaller print. NBA elite 11 was recalled I think and is probably the rarest. Edit: I googled a bit, "armored core for answer" is another sleeper like operation darkness, marvel alliance gold edition has delisted dlc
  6. Here's this week's gets! all thrift stuff Hylian shield from 2015 costume for 2$, terrible framerate composite to HDMI converter on the left back behind the pocket cdrs (I love mini cdrs they're so cute baha), mini color pacman 2020 for $3 can be wall mounted (perfect with the ghost i just got haha), $25 PS1 with cables, memory card, dualshock and extra gamester controller (Mandy saw it about to be put out at the thrift and was like eh? Eh? Really having to twist my arm over it. I was like "I doooo have some rewards points I could use", flipped it over to see which model and was like uhhh yah we don't have this one. Scph-9001 The psone smol boi revision came out September of 2000, so this is the last original model with smaller mobo, minus the parallel port. The previous owner was a smoker so this thing looked kinda cooked but it was all tar and cleaned up really nice.. really good shape actually! It didn't wanna read games right off the bat so I cleaned the lens with 91iso, tried again and still not loading up properly, popped in a CD and let it play through (this model also has the kickass visualizer if you hit select in the CD menu, so rad) enjoying the visuals and after it ran for a while I tried a game again and it booted right up the later models also fixed stuttering issues with fmv and I was super happy to see solid video playback in the into to crash 2. That's it gamewise this week, I've been finding more HomeGoods than games lately thriftin, some nice mid century modern stainless steel stuff for our kitchen and pots and pans and such: here's a little before and after of some revereware pots from 1991 and '87 They're both cleaned up and shiny now like the right side ready to be put back into service. Goodwill had these 2 and a third from pre1968 bundled for $4 heck yaaaaa still cleaning up the oldest one, had a loooot of build up compared to these two. Have a great week y'all!!

  11. Hello, it's Fridaytime! Mandy got Pikmin 4 and I found a Zelda skyward sword amiibo at gamestop (pretty sure this is the reissue of the Amazon exclusive?)
