Lucky pickup today

So a few weeks ago I saw a rare CL post for NES games that hadn't already been swooped up by a reseller.  Went to the guys house to buy the lot (40 games + system), and as we're talking he asks if I'd be interested in any other video game stuff.



So I say, sure what have you got?  He says he's got some modded xboxes (meh) and then opens a drawer and pulls out... a TG-16, a Turbo Express with tv tuner, 16 games (lots of goodies), two Atari Lynx systems (both versions) and a bunch of Lynx games, and an original gameboy with ~20 games.



Needless to say I left with everything.



Well today he texts me saying he found a bunch more stuff in his storage unit and would I be interested.  $50 got me:



Genesis games:  



Alien Storm

Arch Rivals

Greendog the Beached Surfer Dude

Joe Montana Sports Talk Football II

Jurassic Park

Michael Jackson's Moonwalker

NBA Jam

NBA Live '95

Quad Challenge

Sonic

Sonic II

Tiny Toon Adventures: Busters Hidden Treasure

Toe Jam & Earl

Tow Jam & Earl Panic on Funkatron

Street Fighter II: Special Champion Edition

Streets of Rage II



Plus a working Game Gear, game gear rechargable battery back, Sonic 1 and 2 and Indiana Jones for GG



Another TG-16 controller and two N64 controllers.  Rare rare find for me, especially in and around Seattle

    Oh my...so many famicom games! I'm thoroughly envious right now. Dunno if I wanna know what you paid for that haul!

    That is really fantastic! I've thought about doing one of these myself at some point. I'm curious to see what pans out.

    I knew what you were going to post based on the shipping time!



    Is this a lot you won from Hit-Japan? I split a 200 lot Famicom package just before Christmas with my friend, I had no idea the sheer amount of work that went into splitting it up. There were a good deal of harder to find titles in the lot we won, but they were suseptible to faded labels and stickers being plastered on the cart that won't remove easily.



    I lucked out on the free surface shipping, though. The lot was won before Christmas, and it took an entire month (minus a day) to arrive.

    Holy shit!

    Haha, yep exactly the one.



    And yeah there are a LOT of dupe titles, but I am honestly pretty stunned with how many really good titles are in there (like all the Dragon Quests for instance).  



    As soon as I get everything logged, I'll be putting the dupes up in a for sale thread to pass on the savings to some other NA members.

    Congrats! I'm still trying to find a cheap copy of Moonwalker, myself. 



    Cherish Streets of Rage II, it's one of the best games of all time.

    I feel bad for you because the Seattle goodwill posts tons of AMAZING game auctions on ebay. I'm glad you got these before they ended up there.
