Apparently there's a new retro gamer store in huntsville. I'm going to go check it out tonight or tomorrow. Anyone have any games they've been looking for? Maybe I can find them. Apparently a lot of the stuff they have is only 99cents so I can't imagine most of it is too popular but hey, who knows. From the looks of it it goes all the way back from the atari to last generation games.

Please take your digicam and let us see what the store looks like and what they have.  I might send you some paypal money if you can pick me up some of those $0.99 games.

Just got back and holy crap they have a lot of stuff. They have a few copies of megaman 2-4 and a full set of megaman1-6 that he said he'll only sell as a set for 150. He's got a complete megaman 2 box with manual and more. A cart for FF mystic quest, Mario RPG, Secret of Evermore etcetc. Gonna get some blurry pics up as soon as I get my phone and laptop bluetooth to play nice.

yeah, they were really bad shots, but if you click fullsize mode you should be able to see most of them. That's what happens when all you have is you camera phone.

Here are the SNES games I want if the price is right that I see.  If you can get me prices and what you think it would cost to ship so I can paypal you the money on Friday (payday!) if you have the capability.  Also if the labels in the front or back have tears, rips or are discolored I don't want (obviously) as well as stickers or marks...things which I know you know already.

Pic 1:
FF Mystic Quest (both carts)
Mortal Kombat
Mario is Missing
Super Off-Road
Pac-Man 2
Mario Paint
Zombies Ate My Neighbors
Street Fighter II Turbo (only the good label one)

Pic 2 (the ones I can make out):
Arcana?
Brain Lord
F-Zero
Tecmo Super Bowl (both II and III)

Pic 3:
TMNT Tournament Fighters
Super Star Wars
Wheel of Fortune
Street Fighter II Turbo
Super Mario RPG

And ANY SNES RPG except Zelda 3--unless its cheap.  Also, any Final Fantasy I for the NES I want if in good shape.

I saw at least one ff1 but it was just the cart. These games are also just the carts, tho he had some boxes in the back for some of them that he said had stickers and were beat up and he was prolly just going to ebay them. If it has a box, I'll ask if he can throw it in. I'll also ask about bulk discounts. I have no idea what the shipping would be. I'd assume you'd want ups since it's a bit more secure than usps. I'll call or email your list to him and get prices. How much of a cut does paypal take these days when you send money?  If I recall the mystic quest games were 15 each. and the turbo was 10 or 15. I'll also see about maybe getting some better pics. Also, Mario RPG for just the cart he had listed at 35. He recently sold a Chrono Trigger complete package for about 200 he said

First thing that jumped out at me is the complete NES MM collection in the second photo, how much did they want for those? I bought mine over the course of about five years, and spent about $20 per game at FuncoLand. The exceptions being MM3, $10, and MM2, which I picked up at a yard sale for less than $1 (I'm thinking it was actually $0.20). My parents got me MM6 for my birthday one year, no idea how much they spent on that, but it came from Blockbuster complete with box and manual (which I promptly lost :sad: ).

I don't see any, but do they sell first party N64 controllers? The only way to get a reasonable priced controller around here was to...buy a complete used N64 from GameStop: $20 for the console, a controller, and cords. That was a few years back and I'm pretty sure their entire N64 stock is gone now.

he had a complete donkey kong n64 system (the clear green one) and I was pretty sure I saw a stand alone yellow controller. Not sure how much they were. The megaman set only had the carts and he wanted 150 for the whole set. Said 5 alone was worth about 50 bucks even just being a cart.

Carts with no boxes or manuals don't bother me much, but stickers and bad labels do.  Those prices are a bit too high for almost all of those, I'll pass for now.  Although how much for the Final Fantasy I if the cart is in good shape?  Paypal shouldn't take a cut of payments unless you hit a certain amount which is usually $500. 

I am interested in the Arcana, Super Star Wars and F-Zero if the carts are in as good of a condition as possible.  IE Labels still shiny, limited if any scratches, no markers/stickers and obviously discoloration is a no-no. 

Also is the Mario Paint the old style cart or the new style?  I'm also interested in any Super Mario Kart's or Super Mario World's that are the new style and or Player's Choices.

Paypal will take a percentage out of any transfer from my experience...
