I haven't bought too much in the past few weeks, mostly because I'm trying to save up for an arcade cabinet.
However, this is a list of the games i've recently picked up:
- Got a bunch of Gamecube games at a yard sale, spent $20:
Amazing Island
Pokemon Colosseum
Shadow The Hedgehog
Legend Of Zelda: The Wind Waker
Crazy Taxi
Star Wars Rogue Squadron: Rogue Leader
- This was bought at Gamestop. Figured I'd buy a few more GC games since the yard sale purchases were pretty much my collection, at that point.
Gamecube: SNK Vs. Capcom 2 EO
Gamecube: Future Tactics: The Uprising
PS2: Amplitude
PS2: Xenosaga Episode II: Jenseits von Gut und Böse
Also of note, I found a guy in Fort Myers that sells arcade equipment. I *MAY* be buying a cabinet from him in the near future. His prices are pretty fair for what he's offering, though I'm still on he fence. The cab I know he'll have is a TMNT 4-player cab, which is an awesome game, but I'm worried about long-term use. I'm going to see if the guy can hunt down an MVS or something.
Mail day, and this might be somewhat worthy of its own thread, but for the sake of laziness, I'll post it here... A NES Test Station got traded for mostly PS1 and PS2 stuff...what kind of stuff would it take to trade for that Test Station? A list (all are US, except as noted):

Probably my best mail day in a long while, I think...
I got some Game Boy stuff for my favorite thrift store today for $14. A complete, possibly new in box battery pack, complete Metroid 2 million seller, Jeopardy complete, sealed Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, and sealed Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge million seller. They all have slight crush damage, but look great. I'm happy.
Edit: Holy hell that's a bigger image than I thought it'd be...
Picked up a Suikoden: Unauthorized Secrets & Solutions strategy guide by Prima today at the flea market for $3. Knew they were hard to come buy but didn't know they commanded as much as they do.
Just started going to flea markets. I found a few NES games and an N64 controller (good joystick and everything, and I actually needed another one) for $25 today. I was pretty happy about the Turtles game. Krazy Kreatures and Circus Caper are a couple rare but worthless games. And I don't know why I didn't have a copy of Dragon Warrior yet, but I finally picked one up.
Not a steal by any means, but I'm happy with it.
I also got a Prima guide to Civilization 3 (one of my all-time favorite video games) for .50.

I got a boxed Cobra Triangle and Flintstones - Surprise At Dinosaur Peak
pics or it dident happen
My friend found these for me , he called me one day and said that he found a few games from a flea market. The games were Batman , Super Mario Bros. 3 , Ikari Warriors , Solstice , Flintsones 2 and Cobra Triangle. I told him to get Ikari Warriors , Solstice , Flintstones and Cobra Triangle for me and the next day he told me that somebody bought some of the games before him of course i thought that Flintstones was gone but he got it Im getting the boxes for the games later , i didnt want to risk them getting flattened during shipping ( the friend who found these dosent really know how to package things properly) , which is a good thing because he sent the loose cart in regular envelopes good thing they arrived in one piece.
Cobra Triangle has a beat up small box and the Flintstones 2 box is pretty beat up too , but you wont find them everywhere. The games were 16euros toghether , not bad
I have pics of the boxes on my other computer , i will upload them later.
Although it's no Flinstones, picked up Secret of Mana, Donkey Kong 2, and Yoshi's Island carts for $32 today off of craigslist. Not a steal by any means but a pretty good deal. I was sad to find Yoshi's island with a pretty bad label, but DK and Mana were real good and mint. Been wanting Secret of Mana really bad, so glad I didn't have to resort to the Bay.
Got my snes power pak in the other day from retrozone, so far it's awesome. i really hope they make these for other systems as well, i plan on buying the nes one as soon as i get the extra cash.
Picked up a few things lately. I havnt had much luck for a couple weeks but I found these. I got the contra and arkanoid through the mail. they are solid 9+/10's and ccomplete. then i picked up a second Zero off craiglist for 5 bucks. It is a solid 9/10 as well, but with my luck, it is the second copy I have without a manual now. 3 times a charm?
