I got a copy of Crystal for 16 bucks. I don't know why it was priced so low, the place I got it from usually prices their stuff the same as online, but whatever. Battery in it still works, too. Has some kid's save with 96 hours on it. He beat the Elite 4 16 times. I almost don't want to delete it.

Removing a save battery erases the save and removes the ability to save. Re-inserting a battery restores the ability to save, but the save itself is erased completely.
The only way to do what you're asking is to backup the save from the first cart onto a save-backup device and then restore it to the next cartridge.

I reacted enthusiastic about him owning AVP for the jaguar (never having seen one in person myself) so he offers to lend it to me and promised it would work. Sure enough it does.

Virtua Cop (complete in box with lightgun)
Space Invaders (sealed)
Sim City 2000 (sealed)
Tetris S (sealed)

Fire Pro Gaiden: Blazing Tornado

Dragon Ball Z
Golden Axe the Duel (sealed)
Fighters Megamix
Christmas Nights
Puyo Puyo Sun
Tadaima Wakusei Kaitakuchuu! (sealed)

Did I do good /vr/?
I know most of these games aren't worth much but pretty much every title is solid and the fact that they're all either sealed or CIB in near mint condition is so fucking awesome. I just got my Saturn so I think it'll be a great intro to the console.

I'd post the auction pics but I'll just wait until it all gets here to post my own.

Also copped a Japanese copy of After Burner 2 for the Saturn as well for 20 bucks CIB (will no spine card but who cares) near mint.

OK. Just a preface, though, for the background of this haul. When my big brother left my home on his 18th birthday (8 years ago), I let him take all the old game consoles because I was a gigantic faggot and I had no sense of what I was giving away, being 14 & obsessed with multiplayer FPS. He's kept all this stuff & played it for years (he really dislikes most newer games), but he was diagnosed with terminal cancer about two months ago and he decided to send me all this stuff, for free except shipping and only under the condition that none of it ever leave the family, ever-- so, no reselling.

Oh well, I won an auction for Tomba and Tomba 2 for 50 bucks a pop which is bretty good considering eBay pricing.

I need to start going to flea markets. The only one I know of around me is like turbo mexican and idk if they'd have anything vidya related.

>> No.1830157

Got three clean PlayStation controllers (one Sixaxis, two DualShock 2) for two dollars. Also got a sealed Professor Layton game but that doesn't quite count yet. I'm getting really tired of going to flea markets and finding that all of the game cases are empty though.

Mad jealous. Got a good story with it?

A friend of mine wanted Magic cards for Tron Bonne. I recently quit so I traded him a $110 card for it, which I protested since it was so lopsided but he insisted since he knows I'm a huge Mega Man fan.

The Splatterhouses came from a lot that I picked up at a random garage sale that was worth a ton. My local game store gave me both for $150 total, which is obviously a steal but I bring all my extras to him so I get bro prices.

The rest came from a friend who is getting out of gaming, so all and all I spent $80 dollars today and this was my haul.

(Not pictured: Mega Man X1, X2, X3, Super Metroid, Castlevania 4, Maximum Carnage, and Mega Man X4-6 on the PS1. I truly thought no one would believe me if I posted that all at once, so I just led with the tip).

Stuff I wanted on the left, shit I didn't on the right. There's a few really clean cases on the right that I'm gonna use for games I have without cases. PS is another SCPH-1002.
