You will not enjoy using them. The system is technically capable for the time period and has several great games, but the controllers for it ruined everything.

This was my first time actually getting anything. Went to a yard sale and a resale shop (I think that's the same thing as a pawn shop?) Ignoring the the keyboard and the pretty notebook:

Yard sale did not get retro, but got the two PSP games for $3 each.

In the Shop I Dungeon Keeper, Lords of the Realm II, and Pod for 50 cents each. That felt like it was decent. The other two PC discs were the same price. I thought "The Third Dimension" would be a game but it is educational software. The other disc is a collection of (probably) shitty games. Got it for the novelty.

Sim City 2000 was $3, as was Top Gun. Overpaid on Top Gun, but I was excited to see NES games at all (and the rest were just Mario + Duck Hunt over and over) so I said "fuck it".

D-Did I do well?

Hyperbole, friend. The point, of course, is that you go out in the early afternoon, you're browsing a garage sale that others have already been to hours ago, including the people who are after video games.

Went to gamestop to look for gamecube / ps2 games. They no longer carry them. The clerk told me about a local game store in our town I didn't even know existed..

Went there, lots and lots of old games ranging from every console, complete shock! I picked up these 3 turok games for $4 a piece, I think I did pretty good.

They're in great shape, only one of them had to be cleaned a little because it was dirty and some of the edges were corroded.

Bonus is doom 64, it arrived in the mail today from ebay, works great. All in all a good day.

Today I bought Spider-man for the N64.It will be a gift for my younger brother, we used to play it a lot when we were kids.
Sad part of it, the guy that sold it to me (nice guy, total bro) is a collector and now has to give up some of his stuff for money because his father is sick. Really made me sad. The cart is in amazing condition, doesn't have the box and manuaL, but you can see if was taken good care of.

Didn't snap a pic because my brother keeps coming in my room and I'm afraid he might see it.

AGS-001 Flame Red Gameboy SP with box (great condition), charger and all booklets intact inside of original sleeve. the console itself is decent, couple scratches--nothing too bad, and included Super Puzzle Fighter II and Wario Ware Inc. (no boxes though)..all for $50

Today was poop from a butt. I sniped an MVS adapter for my Neo Geo, bought a Super Gameboy for $15, and bought some parts for my Nerf Vulcan (ammo box and another belt). I still need the handle for it. Also bought a VCD card for my Saturn(s) and a USB adapter widget for Saturn pads to go along with my PSX USB adapter dealy.
