    Are they loose carts, or CIB?

    Those prices aren't incredible, but it's still nice to find things in the wild.

    It's still nice to find stuff in the wild, isn't it?

    No they're loose carts. But in good shape! 100% good shape!

    And your right, it's more fun to find these instead of playing them. image

    My search continues this weekend.

    Super Mario Bros. 2 - $18
    Dick Tracy - $8

    It's decent - by no means the best but at $2 why not eh

    StarTropics is an amazing and under-rated game. Sure the controls aren't the best, but you'll be surprised if you give it some play time. Try it out. The yo-yo will grow on ya image

    Star Tropics was one of my favorite games as a kid, many fond memories. image

    I found Star Tropics to be tons of fun as a kid, that is, until I made it to the point where I had to enter that stupid code that is on the letter from your uncle. This was pre-internet so I had put it on the shelf for years until I could find the info online. I was very disappointed with Zoda's Revenge though, not a big fan at all.

    Alright, now for my update of this weekend.

    Went to 4 Flea Markets in the Houston area and found:

    Dr. Mario - $2
    Chip & Dale Rescue Rangers - $6
    Kid Icarus - $4
    Power Glove (Loose with out the sensors) - $5
    6 Ofiicial Ninentedo Dust Covers - $1 each but she sold it to me for $5

    As for other items I saw:

    1. Lots of old GameBoy's (the 1st ones!)
    2. I saw some NES Advantage contollers and they were going for $5 to $14
    3. I saw a Virtual Boy console with no stand or remote for $10
    4. As for you big time collectors, I did see some CIB games but can't remember the names to these games. Just 1 or 3 of them. I did see a Legend of Zelda (Gold) CIB but the top of the lid was torn off. They wanted $22 for that.
