Is it Ok to talk about games we got from a store or yard sale? Or is this considered bragging?

Go for it, good to hear about people actually getting the good side of the stick when it comes to that. I just missed somebody who was throwing out a SNES and Genesis with games for both including Mario RPG, somebody else got it... for free... grrrrrrr.

We did have a thread for it, but it kinda died down. I would love to see another thread start up for it :)

I went to a thrift store 2 days ago and found a Gamecube bundle for $40 which included:

The console - Black
2 controllers
2 memory cards
Fire Emblem
Mario Kart
Custom Robo
Pokemon Channel
Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
Super Smash Bros Melee
5-6 other $5 titles

I was so stoked.

JVC X'Eye in the box with some genesis games - $10 at Goodwill

Virtual Boy, missing stand, with controller, power adapter and Wario - $14

SNES with controllers and hookups and Chrono Trigger - $15

I've had other good finds, but nothing leaps out at the moment. Goodwill, thrift stores and flea markets can be your best friend sometimes or your wallet's worst enemy!

I actually found this a while ago, but I'm proud of this.

Sega Genesis Model 1 + Sega CD Model 1 (both in pristine condition)- $55.

Additionally, I got a few games for dirt cheap as well. As you can see below.

Ecco The Dolphin (complete)- $1
Jurassic Park (complete)- $1
Aladdin (complete)- $1
Sonic 2 (complete)- $1
Road Rash (loose)- $1

Those are all pretty common but c'mon..they were only a buck. :D
