I got this for $80, as you can see, spotless lens, 99% of the paint intact. You just don't find them like that for decently north over 100 normally. I've wanted one for like 20 years, had to jump at it. The images online just don't do the screen quality justice and I had worried about that.

Super envious of that GB Light.
I too always wanted one, but gave up the idea a while ago, I think. Price, condition, and age are part of the reason (not to mention that I tend to game on my GBA SP's anyways). I just decided I didn't need another system that I was afraid to use or couldn't find parts for if it failed.

But that is definitely in nice shape. I'd so play Mega Man and Castelvania on it (to name a couple).
...just another lost soul...

Nice. The only Game Boy I really want right now is the AGS-101; a good backlight + Game Boy Color support would make me pretty happy. Always wanted to play through Kirby Tilt 'N' Tumble with some actual visibility.

Pickedup another Wii for $10. Hacked it, set it up for usb loading, and it will soon be installed in my inlaws camper with Wii Sports, Mario Kart, and Ghost Squad - aka the only games my inlaws will ever play.

Is House Of The Dead 2 too low brow for them?

They are not zombie fans.

Recent pickup: Breath of the Wild and Fifa 18 Switch - $20 each card only. Both are for other people but still worth a mention. I was sorely tempted by Skyrim for the same price but the guy next to me had his kid and they literally just got a Switch on the way to this store and he had heard good things about Skyrim but had not played a game since the Zelda OOT. So I let him take Skyrim. I will get the next one, I got Octopath soon anyway.

I was forced to move to Japan by the good ol' Navy last year and even though the job is shit the game collecting has far exceeded what I had imagined and I'm happy for the experience because of it. Honestly, I could be excited to show off something I found pretty much every week but I had the best find (dollar for dollar) of my life a couple of weeks ago. I found a copy of Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire for ¥500 ($4.53 US) and the week prior to that I got some other PC Engine goodies super cheap at the same store. Behold -

If this guide is correct, Sapphire could be a bootleg.

Still, it's not a bad price at all for the lot if it ends up being high-quality reproductions.
