*Street Fighter II (FOR SALE)

First thing I would like to say THANK YOU to Jonebone & Videogamedomain.  Jonebone thank you very much for the Ducktales 2 box it is perfect (well for me)  and Videogamedomain thank you for the Mega Man 5 Manual (very Good condtion) and Pugsley's Manual.  You two guys are great to work with and hope we can work together again someday.  So to everyone else if they come to you with something buy it from them they are great.  SO now on to the other purchases.  I traded a copy of LOZ: Ocaraina of Time Bonus DISC since I had two for Ultima IX Dragon Edition(sorry no pictures for that)  with my co-worker.  My brother purchased some guides off eBay, mostly Duke Nukem Games and some Game Boy, GBC & GBA manuals, and Paperboy Complete in BOX (no picture sorry).  My brother also went on Shop Goodwill and won and Intellvision 2 with games in their boxes mostly.   We also purchased from a guy off another game site a Famicom 76 in 1 and a Pirate Mortal Kombat for Super Famicom.  My brother went up to another city and went to an indoor Flea Market and purchased Advanced D&D Birthright on PC complete in box. Also on the bay my brother purchased Super Mario World 2 Yoshi's Island Guide.  We also picked up in another city Orgeon Trail 4th Edition and Where in the USA? both from 2000 on PC. I know not much Nintendo stuff but still great purchases.   So here are some pictures let me know what you think.

Hey everyone!  Been a while since a new blog - still looking for that Ducktales 2 box for NES Cheesy  BUT on to a lighter note! My brother and I finally purchased another Holy Grail of ours Panic Restaurant!!!! This bad boy is in mint I mean like 9.5 out of 10!!! Maybe even a 10!!  This game is hard to come by CIB.  I went to one of our local shops where we have been getting some good NES games and this one happened to be there.  I was ecstatic to see it there!! First thing I did was grab it and made sure it was complete and he didn't have a price on it yet so I was like $150. He's like sure!  So I texted my brother and he came down with the cashola as I only had some of the cash and we purchased this beauty!  This game is a good achievement now all we need are these:

*Flintstones 2 (Cart only or complete)
*Little Samson (Cart only or complete)
*Stadium Events (Duh)
*All Panesian titles

So if any of you have those and willing to let them go let me know~!!!

But here are the pictures - and no the game ISN'T for sale OR trade!

Hey Everyone! My brother and I did a little browsing yesterday at a few places like a couple of Goodwills, Gamers, and some other Thrift Stores.  But we hit a pretty good mix and found some more NES games to add to our seemingly growing collection that we have started this year!  The Year of NIntendo as I put it for my brother and I.  We will be selling some of the games we bought just CART Only.  Last week I purchased a few things that won't be pictured like Mass Effect 3 N7 Collector's Editin for PS3.  I love the fact that we are finding so many boxed NES Games in the wild and at this point nothing has passed up our most recent from my last post Mega Man 6 Pristine condition.  So here is the list and prices we paid for each NES Game in their boxes.

List:
*After Burner - $5.00
*Clash At Demonhead - $3.00
*Major League Baseball - $1.00
*Pinball (Nice Condition Black Box Game) - $5.00
*Road Runner - $8.00
*Rolling Thunder - $2.00
*Super Mario Bros. 1 - A WHOPPING - $2.00!!!!! CIB
*Super Sprint - $6.00
*Toobin' - $8.00 (We will be selling just a cart of this game)
*Vindicators - $2.00
*Wheel of Fortune - $6.00
*Winter Games - $3.00

Item that won't be pictured is a box only Sega Genesis 2 6-Pack Edition - I have all the items to put in it though to make it complete the Box was on $2.00.

We went to Half Price Books and purchased Final Fantasy Tactics - NON Greatest Hits Guide for $6.00 and a Children's Hint book For Super Mario Advance for $2.00!

Then we went to an Electronics Store and purhcased a Commodore 128 complete in box for $45.00! Then we went to a couple of Goodwills and picked up a few other things:
A-Train PS1 - Complete with Everything - $2.00, Tekken 2 PS1 Greatest Hits for $3.00 and get this Die Hard Trilogy PS1 Greatest Hits - FOR $0.34 yes that's CENTS!   A while back my brother bought Civilization II Multiplayer Gold Edition at a Flea Market for $3.00 and yesterday he bought Civilzation II at Goodwill for $3.00.

Hello everyone.  Went to one of my local stores here and found some nice NES games that I have been wanting.  My brother and I are working on replacing all of our loose NES Games with CIB NES games and selling our cart only or cart with manual copies.  SO today I picked up very Minty Mega Man 6 complete with everything I.E. Manual, Poster, Black Sleeve, Nintendo Power AD card, and the kicker the plastic that goes around the game.  This copy is practically brand spanking new.  Then I also picked up Bucky O'Hare also very minty but not quite as new, Lethal Weapon little crease on front of box otherwise CIB and good shape, Raid 2020 Minty with everything including plastic sleeve, Wally Bear and The No Gang CIB.  Then from the Amazon guy my copy of Dick Tracy in very Minty condtion came with everything (including the plastic sleeve) I got for $5.00, and I got my CIB T&C Surf Designs.   So another good find!!

ALSO I picked up for $35.00 a table top Donkey Kong Jr.  Works perfectly and in good shape.

Hey everyone! Going to keep this short but sweet.  Today I decided I wanted to buy some more games especially NES games in their boxes! My brother and I decided we really need the Mega Man's complete in box on NES to complete our Capcom NES collection. ALSO if anyone has an extra Mega Man 5 manual I would be willing to buy or trade for it, and I need a Complete Mega Man 1 & 6, so if anyone could help out that would be great. But today I went to what I am going to call my NES heaven store and purchased Gun.Smoke CIB, T&C Surf Designs CIB.  Then I went to it's sister store and purchased Mega Man 2, 3, & 5 CIB.  Then I went to CD Tradepost and purchased Mario Is Missing on NES Cart only, and Diablo in minty condition for PS1. My brother purchased a couple of Super Famicom games on eBay Monopoly and Sim City CIB.  Today I purchased on eBay for $40.00 Mega Man 4 CIB.  So anyways hope you all enjoyed this blog!!!

Hello Fellow Gamers!  My brother and I did a little more shopping today at a couple of our favorite stores.  IF you haven't read the previous blogs please do so!  We bought probably our last bulk lot of NES games for a while.   Most of these titles are hard to come buy especially complete in the box such as DIE HARD & Metal Storm!  We have spent quite a bit of money accomplishing something we are excited to have a good quality and quantity of NES games in their boxes.  Sorry none of these are for trade or for sale.  We might be getting rid of some loose games and maybe some games we have duplicates in their boxes.  But anyways we went to a Comic store which sells a ton of video games and then we went to Goodwill's GoodBytes.  We also went to Nebraska Furniture Mart so I could buy a bundle PS Vista!  Now my brother and I both have one!  And I also purchased a couple of games Army Corps From Hell & Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus.   My brother purchased the system and a couple of games on the day it came out he bought the same bundle pack and the games he purchased were Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 & of course Uncharted: Golden Abyss.  This month has been great and this lot of games is a good way to end the month.  Especially with the boxed NES Games Die Hard, Mighty Final Fight, Metal Storm, Barbie (yes I said Barbie), Pac-Mania and a few others.  Another side note my brother bought Star Wars on NES complete in box in an earlier blog from eBay and today he surprised me with the sequel Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back on NES complete in box! Also purchased from eBay.  So hope you all enjoyed and here are the pictures please comment!







Also the Game Genie is Brand New Sealed.

Hello again fellow gamers.  Today we got some more goodies in the mail and I went on yet another shopping spree for mostly unliscensed NES games.  My total purchase at the store was sadly $262.00 ick but it was worth it!  I am just waiting on one more package in the mail my complete copy of Deja Vu.  Today I also got two liscenesd NES games Robocop 3 and Romance of the Three Kingdoms both complete in their boxes.  My brothers eBay mail order today arrived all complete in box DuckTales 1, Chip and Dale 1 and Fester's Quest.  Today I recieved another personal grail Jetson's on NES.  So again I do believe this is the year of the Nintendo for our collection.  Today my brother also purchased Sin & Punishment on the Wii brand new at K-Mart for a meer $13.00!  While Game Stop still sells new for $40.00 and we needed the game because we have the Japanese N64 game Sin & Punishment complete in box in minty condition we purcahsed a long time ago.  My brother also recieved in the mail today pretty much brand new Star Trek Judgement Rites Limited Collector's Edition, the VHS is still brand new and the game is limited number to 75,000.  This game is in pristine condition!  So here are the pictures please comment!!

Love NINTENDO! Especially NES!

Hello Fellow NA members!  I finally achieved in getting one of my "Holy Grails."  For a meer $0.00!!! Yes you read that right! I got a complete in box MINT/NM condition Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers 2!  Yes I will be posting pictures but after I tell the story.

Yesterday I went to a local store here in the Omaha area.  My gf has never been there before so I said what the hey since you live down by there I'll take you.  Well we got there we looked around for a while and did my usual pattern go to the games!  Well I saw a few Boxed NES titles just sitting there so I picked them up as well they are minty and complete too!  (titles are - Mickey Mousecapade with the Oval Seal (I have just the cart of Round Seal) and Little Nemo (I have one complete in box now and one cartridge).  I picked Little Nemo up for $8.00 and Mickey for $5.00.  So little to nothing for complete NES Games.  But the employee was like "did you see what was in the cabinet?" I was like no but I was here yesterday and didn't see anything.  He's like well I just got those you are buying and this in today I was like what - and TOO MY SUPRISE! it was Rescue Rangers 2 - he took it out of the case and he knew the story behind it and well let's just say I made a new friend.  He put it on hold for me I was going to pick it up Thursday but I decided I couldn't wait so I went in this morning and GOT it.  Well now your probably wondering what the $0.00 means well I traded in a bunch (and I mean a bunch of DVD's and CD's) I got store credit the game was priced at $93.99 but I know the manager pretty well and he decided well I think this price is steep so he changed it to $73.99!!! WTH!! Love this guy haha.  Well with my store credit I had plenty for that and some more SO I picked up copies of Bonkers & Adventures of Batman and Robin on Sega Genesis - Batman for $6.99 and Bonkers for $4.99 and well I only spent $5.00 total! So basically I paid for Bonkers only!!!! So no drooling everyone!!! This is my best find yet!!!! Next up hopefully a box for my MINTY Ducktales 2 and Stadium Events!!!

Hope you all enjoyed! Please comment on this historic day!!!

All are in pretty good condition.

Adventures of Tom Sawyer
Castlequest

Hey fellow gamers!  Another Game Hunt Blog!  This weekend (the super busy weekend before Christmas) is as good as any other hunt we have ever had.  We had only planned to go to a new store that we found on Craigslist but decided to hit a couple of normal shops and well we hit a mini jackpot!!!!  Our first stop was Game Vault and we found a mother load of NES Games In there Boxes Complete:

*Bonk's Revenge - GAME BOY game Cart Only - $6.00
*Mega Man II - GAME BOY game Cart Only - $6.00

So there is our Pre-Christmas Goodies that we purchased lots and lots of goodies! (Sorry None for sale....don't be a scrooge that you can't have it, but I am going to be a scrooge and say not for sale because these games are as good as gold to me and my brother!)
