Well, Metroid was in that stack. lol That makes it a bit better.


I like that GameGear case. I haven't seen one like that before, but it's cool. Nice find on that deal.

I went down to the local swap meet today and picked these guys up.
Image
Well at first i was looking for just the carts and was having no luck
then i saw a booth just full of atari nes genesis the whole shebang and i asked him for golf, ice climbers etc.
then i just came out and said what i was looking for inside the cart and it turns out the guy actually knew what i was
talking about and he had one cleaned up and ready to go. I didn't get a very good deal on it but the guy was cool so I payed for it.
Image
This was actually the first thing I saw when I walked in got it for 10 bucks.
EDIT:Just checked out the guys site and this is his collection. http://sacramento.craigslist.org/vgm/1313318587.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

My girlfriend is always looking for old video game and computer stuff for me when she goes to thrift stores. Found a Genesis power supply for 1.00 and a JVC Genesis clone I have never seen before for 7.00. When she got to the counter with them electronics were on special, 1/2 off. Haven't had a chance to check the clone yet, but am using the power supply to charge the NEC MobilePro I bought from a local e-cycle place today for 5 bucks :)

Really good finds, both of you! Michaelthurston, what is the third game from the top on the right side? Looks familiar, but can't think of what game it is.
