Finds 1861: Plumber Don't Wear Ties Definitive Edition



I can't believe this game was actually re-release. I was all over it when it was available for pre-order. A cult classic for the 3DO!

Finds 1860: PC Controller and USB Zip Drive!


A little stop at a Garage sale ended with a USB zip drive finding! I'm not sure if it works but it was a decent pick up for a couple of bucks. The controller I found next door at the Goodwill. It looks like an older version as it only has two buttons like NES style controller so I'm guessing it was mimicking the controller of the time. Overall, really unique stuff.

Finds 1859: NES Top Loader, Spider Man Web of Shadow, and Ys VIII


A local pick up for this NES top loader for a really good price ended with a trip to the Gamestop of the area where I made the pick up. I was able to find the hard to find Spider Man Web of Shadow for PS3 and also picked up Ys VIII as a nice added bonus. It was definitely a good hunt.

Finds 1858: Code Name Viper and Magic of Scheherazade


Here are two awesome games complete in a box for the NES. I am making an effort to get more boxed NES games as I want to have a bigger collection of it. Don't get me wrong, I don't want a full set! Just want to get the games I like the most. Code Name Viper is a game that plays like Rolling Thunder which is really cool while Magic of Scheherazade is a really unique adventure game that I highly recommend. Everyone always talks about Mario but the NES has many other gems that don't get enough attention.

Finds 1857: Parodius Super Famicom Games!


Lets continue with more Parodius for the Super Famicom. Here are the other two games I was missing in the set. They are so much fun and unique. I wish they would make more games like these! Ever tried them?

Here are a couple of Gamestop deals that arrived a little later than the first order of games I had. They were really cheap and happy they all came with their original cases. It's funny I keep buying PS5 games even though I don't have a PS5.

Finds 1850: TMNT Auto Mutations Leo and Raph



These are a really odd release of the TMNT re-issued lines. I'm not even sure why these were picked to be released as honestly, there are other sets that are more sought after. Either way, I'll pick them up and add them to the collection.
