Seems like a fun system. I really want to buy a Japanese white console to match my Dreamcast :)

Half Priced Books had a sale for Memorial Day.
I showed up late so it was mostly picked over, but I found a couple things:


City Racer Gamecube


Just another arcade racer for the Gamecube.
But it's complete and one I don't have!

Haven't played it yet, but seems fun!
It actually has a Mario Kart style item system.
You pick up random bonus items from a dice 'box'.
Certainly doesn't look as fun as Mario Kart, but could be a nice under the radar game :)



Metroid Prime 2: Echoes Gamecube


Already have this one.
I was hoping to snag it for the manual because my copy is also missing it.
Oh well. It was a good price and will be resold!


Got both games for $10.

Profit: $1067/$1082/-$15

A novelty pickup from Goodwill:

The Intec Portable Screen for Playstation 2


It's a clam shell screen that locks on to the top of an original model PS2





I don't have a PS2 but I tested it on my Dreamcast and it works!
It's versatile and can really hook up to anything composite or s video.

The screen is small and resolution is poor but pretty good for its time.
Back in 2005, this thing retailed at ~$150!

Got it for $3.
I don't really know if there is a market for this.
It's maybe too bulky to sell online.
Just a neat find I couldn't pass up :)

Profit: $1119/$1085/$34

Went to a few garage sales this weekend.
Here is what I found:

Grand Theft Auto V Xbox 360


I find this game everywhere!
I think this is the 3rd copy I've picked up?
Maybe the first for Xbox..

I liked Vice City and San Andreas but otherwise not real into the GTA games.


Batman Arkham Origins Xbox 360
Batman Arkham Asylum Xbox 360


I don't know anything about these games..
I just grabbed them because they were dirt cheap.

Sorry, I'm not very knowledgeable about this generation of games!


Gaameboy Color


The coolest pickup of the day.

I don't see GBCs too often these days.
This was in great condition and came with a cool carrying case.

Only $.50... how could I pass that up??


Got this lot for $3!
Garage sale prices are the best prices :)
