Most recent NES additions to the collection, Jungle Book was yesterday and the rest was today from a friend. All the Manuals were free, Jungle Book was $20, the rest was $30.
I care significantly less about condition when it comes to exceedingly low cost carts. As long as I can read the label and they function, then great. "Well loved" carts are fine by me. Sometimes the "damage" is charming. Especially when it's little kids writing their names on them
There were a couple people that approached me on here for bulk sales a few years ago when I had a thread asking if it was worth going for a full SNES set. I, like you, had most of the big ticket games out of the way (I think Ogre Battle/Metal Warriors were the only games +$100 I needed) and was basically asking if it was worth going for the set since I only had about 200 games total. A few people messaged me and said they could sell me anywhere from 200-400 commons. Definitely worth a poke around or to start a WTB common thread if you haven't already. Good luck!
Added these the other day. Super happy to find them all locally. After trading an extra GameCube I got them all for $115. I was more than willing to pay it considering I rarely see these games locally.
Boogerman in particular was surprisingly elusive. When I was growing up everyone I knew had played that game, yet this is the ONLY copy I've ever seen in my 5 years of looking.

These came in last month, along with Super Mario Bros CIB, Yoshi's Cookie CIB and Mahjong CIB which came in after the pic was taken.
Annoyingly, Mario Bros (the orange "Pulse" label one) is actually Clu-Clu Land, and Xevious is actually Galaga. Looks like someone tampered with the stickers. I don't know why though, because if anything the games they actually are seem to be about the same if not more expensive than the ones they have the sticker for. I got my money back at any rate.
MGS, Digimon, Ninja Five O, Theme Hospital and Oscar (not pictured, doh!) came from a facebook meetup. I traded an extra mario kart that I picked up for splatoon. Worms and Persona came from a retro game store here in Colorado. I traded in a bunch of filler games, nothing worth more than $10 and I got $45 in store credit bringing my total on those two to $60. Joe and Mac was an ebay purchase. Finally, the dot hack games I bought them from a video game facebook group the guy said he bought them at a thrift store after I gave him $150 lol that could have been me!

I've never seen a Boogerman in the wild or even at a retro game store either. It's an elusive on for sure!

I also got Pieces for SNES because some fellow NA members were talking about it and this game is actually a lot of fun.

And I snagged this on a whim. I've been wanting to find a nice clean copy with no luck, so I went for a sealed one.

Ha! Awesome, man. It's was destiny. I know you'll have it beaten before the end of the day!
Went a little crazy with the commons at my local game store today...
Sweet. I need to do this soon. You going for a complete SNES set?
