I hit the thrift store on Friday and picked up all this stuff for about $20.  Some questionable titles in there, but there was a lot more even crappier stuff I passed on. 




Xbox:
Enter the Matrix
Enter the Matrix: Path of Neo
The Thing
Ty the Tasmanian Tiger
True Crime
Hitman 2

PS2:
Max Payne 2
Shamu's Deep Sea Adventure

PS1:
Pac-Man World
Army Men 3D
Gran Turismo 2

PSP:
Exit


Stealth update!



I also got Fantasy Zone: The Maze for the SMS

I've kind of been meaning to get "Enter the Matrix: Path of Neo" some day. I beat the PS2 first entry of "Enter the Matrix" and I liked how they used the games to expand the story and show movie production level footage exclusive just for the game. "Path of Neo" finishes the story off, and I've still not gotten to see it.

This box art....I really can't stop looking at it.

What a coincidence, I actually recently won an auction for this exact same game, it just shipped today though.

Super punchout and muke Tyson's punch out are two common games I still need to pick up some day.

That famicom game along with little samson for the famicom are also games I wish to get but man ebay prices for them have REALLY jumped. Like stuip crazy.

True about NG DEV no longer doing reprints. I'll need to double check which dc ones I have as I think I have them all. I think.

Its been a very very long time since ive gotten a good deal at a thrift store. I've kind of falling out of the habit of hitting up thrift stores. It just seems like over the past few years that there are so many people doing it, and i just dont see the point. But i went to good will today to try and find some computer speakers, and got an awesome deal, on something ive wanted for awhile but havent been able to find for a good price.



The psone screen is something i've wanted for awhile, just havent found a good deal. I got the whole playstation bundle with controller, memory card, game and screen for $24

Solid find man!  I got mine last year for $50 incl Tekken 1 & 2 +  Sony mem card and original Sony controller.

Is the main character sprite different on the JP version? Asking cause of the cover. How much did you find it for?

Thanks!  It is in really nice shape; the manual, insert and cart all look very minty, and the only damage I saw was a small chip in the case but I am not too picky to care about that.   I got it ProfessorProfessorson, he is a pretty awesome dude I've bought a couple things from.

Good eye and yes it is.  In the JP version you play a young kid and I the US for some weird reason you play a old (not middle age just old lol) guy. The other difference is one of the power ups is weaker or stronger forget which in the us versus JP version.


eBay has been trying for around $150 similar for the little Samson for imports which I suspect largely is demand in the us for a more affordable version versus what the us game goes for.

I say suspect because just a few months back I almost won a CIB copy of little Samson famicom for $100 even but I got sniped and it ended at $102. Since then loose the game goes for $150 similarly to this game.


It keeps getting listed as "rare" but for Japan it is uncommon AT BEST.

The japanese panic restaurant cost me about $57.00 through a uk importer.Still in price it's much cheaper then the nes version.I do find it odd,how the nes panic restaurant has a old guy and the famicom version is a young guy instead.

First up, some sexy goodies from always generous Bernie:



Pretty sexy box set, no?  The tape is pretty cool for a short promo video; check it out on youtube if you haven't seen it yet.

Also from Bernie is a bonus chucard!  You're the best, Mr. Berns!



'Tis Mega Man.  I'd forgotten how much I suck at this game.  Was it always this f*cking hard?!?


And to complete my collectard triumvirate:



I'll soon haul the PrintBooster and IllustBooster back out of storage to give it a test drive.

Lomax is very pretty.

Indeed it is, I only managed to play the 1st stage last night, but it was already making sweet love to my eyeballs. Looking forward to playing a lot more. 1 hit kills did scare me though, lol.
