Slim pickings with covid right now, but I have a friend who clears out storage units and i've turned up a couple of things over the past couple of months.

Couldn't pass up on a game called Quarantine in this climate.

Grabbed this with the games. Been looking to complete my system for ages. This box was absolutely cherry and has everything with it. $65 for it and the games was too good to pass up.

This one I snagged at the beginning of Covid lockdown. Everything is there and it came with a few games as well. This is the second Channel F i've ever seen, and was thrilled to snag it for $100.

Got these with the 3do stuff. $60 for the pair. Hadn't played Hyperstone Heist in years, glad to finally get a copy.

SpoonyBard...
Great find on both systems! In all my years of hunting, I have never seen a Fairchild Channel F in the "wild." I hope you enjoy the 3D0, too. It is a really interesting system with some truly great games (I've been playing a lot of "Return Fire" and "Burning Soldier" lately). It also looks great running S-Video (and you don't need a system exclusive cable). Take care!

Literally a "Look What I Found" situation to report. I haven't been able to go out "hunting" games for several months given current circumstances but I took the chance yesterday to sort through/clean my game collection a bit. I have a medium sized book shelf with two rows of boxed Intellivision and Atari 2600 games on top and I noticed, while dusting (which I haven't done in a long while) that there was a "gap" in the line of games at the back. I managed to shift the shelf just enough to get a look behind it and found a CIB copy of Imagic's "Dracula" which I completely forgot I had. I don't know why, but it really felt like a big find! Has anyone else ever had this experience? Take care and be well!

LOL, you know your collection is too big when you find things that you didn't know you had.

Last Black Friday I picked up Rayman Legends on the Switch for a good price. When it came in the mail, I went to put it on my shelf and... There was already a copy of Rayman Legends on my shelf!

Aren’t you trying to sell your copy of Rayman Legends, too? Now, will you have two copies for sale? :lol:

Indeed, one of them is up for sale! :lol: Even though both are still sealed, I will keep one copy with hopes to eventually play it.

Stopped at a yard sale today and picked up complete, black-label copies of:

Spyro Ripto’s Rage (PS1)
Spyro Year of the Dragon (PS1)

for $3 each. Not too shabby!
