Third Saturday in a row I've gotten up early to make the yard sale rounds. Decent haul today.
SNES system (great shape) all hookups + 1 official controller + 1 3rd party controller + 2 old sports games which don't work
SNES system (great shape) all hookups + 1 official controller
Atari 5200 system (mint in original box!) all hookups + 2 official controllers. Unfortunately no games came with it and I have no games to test it with, but I'm looking out for one.
C+C Red Alert (PC) discs only
Tribes (PC) disc only
2 funky NES controllers - boxy with a joystick haven't looked very closely at them
NES light gun (orange)
Dr. Mario (NES) mint complete in box
American Gladiators (NES) mint complete in box
Tecmo Superbowl (NES) mint complete in box
All for $22. I wish I could find a nice NES/SNES/whatever system bundled with a few dozen games again (Got a 32X bundled with 34 games a month back) but not bad. I saw more systems than games at the sales yesterday.
Also picked up several non-gaming items that I had decided before heading out I wanted/needed so it was a very good day.
UPDATE: Forgot to mention that my old NES, which I thought was near death, worked perfectly with the mint NES cartridges. That was a pleasant surprise.
