Cyborg Hunter for SMS was 5p, Pokemon Gold was £1 and the GB camera and other four games were £1 for the lot.

I also picked this up in a charity shop this morning:

£12.50 for console and game, both in really good nick. Not too shabby when you consider the game is the awesome Kid Dracula!

Nice on FamiDude :)

Almost a proper retro lot for me this week :lol: Mostly local pickups, except for the SNES and most of the Game Boy games.

picked up this on the way to work tonight, even though i can play every megadrive game under the sun on my phone i still had to buy it. Im actually quite impressed by it even though it feels a tad flimsy, will have to stick an sd card in it later on and see how well it goes with other roms (and also tv out on it too im looking forward to seeing)

More pictures here!

This is my last big gaming purchase of this month, the box isn't mint by any means (one of the side flaps has been taped!) but I'm extremely happy with it overall. :D

This lot below technically cost me $0, I got it in a bulk lot in which I kept a standard SNES, N64 console and what you see before you now. I resold the rest and broke even, which is a plus :)

Heh, gotta love boxed LCD games.

Nice flea markets for me today, I didn't actually own Street Fighter II yet and neither the other highlights like Vandal Hearts 2 and Everybody's Golf 2. Wii games are all dupes aswell. Well, except PoP which is just a stupid port of the GameCube game :/
