Usually I don't have a lot of luck at garage sales, but today I feel like I hit the mother load. There was a guy selling all of his collection, which ranged from 2600 games to DS and everything in between. The best part was that he was doing straight pricing of $3 per game, regardless of title. On top of that he gave me a discount for picking up a decent amount. I walked away with some fun stuff for me at a steal, got some good deals for my buddy that was with me to kick up his count, and enjoyed browsing. I'm tempted to go back, as he still had a huge amount of games left, but I grabbed the best stuff I saw. So on with the show:

First off is the SNES finds. Starfox CIB, Zelda complete except box, DKC 2 & 3, SF II, Kirby's Avalanche, and Dr. Mario + Tetris. Nothing fantastic, and I let my buddy have the loose FFII I found since I have it CIB already.

Next is NES. All CIB expect Alpha Mission and Dizzy, but I needed them so I grabbed them too. Again, nothing spectacular, but these can replace my loose copies.

Up next is SEGA. Shining in the Darkness, Fighter's Megamix, Seaman, Grandia II, and X-Men. I was really happy to find the Grandia II and X-Men. I've never played Grandia II, so I hope this one is good.

Here are the 7800 stuff. I've been trying to beef up my 7800 collection when I find good deals. It's not a beloved system, but I love 8-bit. Choplifter is NIB, although a little beat up. Other games here are Ballblazer, Food Fight, Tower Toppler, DK Jr., Crossbow CIB, and Jinks CIB.

So here are the few Intellivision games I picked up. He had a lot more CIB, but I usually don't like to pay more than a buck for these. I just grabbed these because I like the games: Demon Attack, Pitfall!, and Frog Bog.

Lastly is the miscellaneous bits. Road Rash for 3DO CIB, Moon Patrol 2600 CIB, Umjammer Lammy NIB, Parasite Eve II CIB, and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates NIB for DS.
All in all this is a haul I am really happy to grab. Oh, and the grand total? $75. I am really tempted to go back for more, maybe tomorrow but nothing else was screaming my name. What do you guys think?

2 questions:
1. Did he have any GB/GBA games?
2. Go back and get me the GB/GBA games!

Nice Haul

@noiseredux: Yes, he did have some CIB GBA games, maybe 6 or so. I didn't grab them as nothing was interesting to me particularly. I might run by there again tomorrow and see what's still there.

Nice find, especially on the boxes and the Saturn games. I must say though, I absolutely hate the 3DO boxes. They're almost comically large.
Btw, Grandia II is great. Some people say that the PS2 version is better, but I personally enjoyed the Dreamcast version more.

Sweet finds all around! The SNES games are all excellent and finding 3DO games in the long box is always a great find. You picked up a lot of solid games for almost every system you got games for.

Now I just need to pick up a 3DO...
| |
Nice finds, always love finding NES games still in the box.

Great SNES haul!
