A couple of nice finds from my local market this morning, the NES is missing it's instructions but I am very happy with the condition of Mario kart it looks like it could have come straight out of forum member Nintys minty collection.

Managed to tick off another N64 rarity this week. I've only ever seen 2 boxed copies of this on eBay UK in as many years, so I'm really happy to finally owe one. It's fully complete with the registration card and in suberb condition throughout so a real steal in my eyes for just £6.74 including postage costs

Sometimes, checking every single auction pays off. Poorly advertised, bad picture quality, I those Gameboy games for 30 bucks. All are in excellent condition, two missing the inlay. I'm especially pleased about Revenge of the Gator, its one of my favorite Gameboy games and I have fond childhood memories of it.

I wanted it for years, simply for having Optimus prime, finally got it and decided to look a bit more into it.

Not only is Prime in it ( with 4 unlockable colour schemes including Ultra magnus :D ) but megatron is an unlockable character too.

I was over the moon th fin solid snake in it ( with unlockable costumes ) along with Simon Belmont, Twinbee, Characters from Beyblade, Bloody roar, and micronauts + Master higgins from the adventure island games.

Girlfriend is taking the kids away this weekend so its Sonnen Vs Silva saturday night followed by playing games all day Sunday. This is going on first and I cant wait.

Haven't been on in a wee while and carboots (when I've made it along) have been slim pickings. Couldn't be bothered again this morning (though I was awake for it) but redeemed myself a little with some Gamestation 49p-ers. Annoyed I didn't get there earlier though as according to the chap on the desk, they had Jade Empire and Knights of the Old Republic in their selection :roll:

Anyway...

...can replace the iffy photocopy inlayed Halo and sell that off now :)

Didn't get around to posting any updates this week so excuse the number of pictures please :lol:

Chronologically, lets start with last week's Saturday flea finds, quite pleased about Fate of Atlantis and Ico LE which I didn't own yet.

Image

Next up we have mixed arrivals from the week before last. Illusion of Time is french but I'm just happy to finally own the small box version. Got the three SNES games in a trade.

Image

This GBA is what you think it is, a lovely 101 model. The box is pretty damaged and the unit has some scratches, but I do now own all three European 101 colors in box :D Spent less than 80€ for all three combined.

Image

These are the finds from last Sunday's fleas. Picked up the cube game for you fellow cube collectors that need the German cover variant!

Image

I finally received a NES lot I bought weeks ago. Pretty average to bad condition overall, but still pleased to get hold of these for a reasonable price.

Image

These are the mixed arrivals from this week. Very happy about the Konami GB Collection and the obscure Car Power adapter for the original Game Boy.

Image

The last arrival by mail this afternoon, a GB/GBC/GBA lot. Mixed condition really but for 35€ shipped I couldn't say no, even with the two pirates in there.

Image

And last but certainly not least, the incredible find from this morning's flea markets.

Nice finds there, as ever I am mainly jealous of the Snes games! I managed a boxed N64 with some boxed games this morning. Mostly to sell, but I have started holding on to some N64 stuff now :lol:

Haha, yeah, Hagane really isn't as rare as people make it out to be. Fab shape, well, I'd say okay shape. Paid 60€ combined. As I already own both they're gonna finance a couple snes/nes/gb games for my collection :D
