I have returned.... (booty from my trip inside)

[NGEFreek]

Well, after a much deserved 10 day vacation, I have returned, after seeing the Mall of America and much of my family back in the midwest, I come with good news: There were no terrorists on any of the 5 planes I boarded and I got "randomly" checked twice, hell I should buy a lottery ticket.

Anyway, here's the gaming goodies I scored at the MoA and around there:
-Elemental Gearbolt (Yes! Finally!) $14.99 used, minty
-WipeOut 3 $2.99 Used, minty
-Rez (PS2) $19.99 Sealed
-91 copies of Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt (current cart count: 657) around $40
-MTV Music Generator (PC) $9.99 new
-Armada $3.99 Used
-Keychain PSX/PS2 controller
-Space Invaders XL (Nuon) $0.99
-Merlin Racing (Nuon) $0.99

Yesterday I went out and bought an Xbox with Gunvalkyrie, I think thats all, unless you count the Ys 4 I have incoming via the mail.

Useless info: Getting my Tregs pierced in Illinois saved me over 50% over getting them pierced in California ($40 w/ hoops in Illinois, $90 in Cali)

Why do you need all those Mario/Duck Hunt carts?

Also are you still modding Saturns? I might take you up on that offer.

I'm attempting to build a chair out of SMB/DH carts, so I need alot of them.

As for modding saturns, I guess I still do them, as long as they're model 2 saturns and dont have that weird mainboard like your other one ^_^

That's hilarious. You have to put a pic up when you finish that.

I've become a local legend of sorts, so there will be no shortage of pics.

Actually, at an anime convention I attended (for reasons still unknown) some time ago, there was a guy who had a vest made of SMB/Duck Hunt carts. He also had a "whip" made of them. Quite hillarious. I should look for a picture.

Dammit, you've got more carts than I. You'll pay for stealing my limelight!

[NGEFreek]

Johnny - didn't you offer to sell me like 50 SMB/DH carts at one time?

NGE, this is for you, if you haven't seen it.

It's a man on a similar mission, but with uber-cheap Bases Loaded Famicom carts.

The horror...

I don't know if I'd go as far as bathing with my carts (some look, lets say, used in ways not originally planned by the makers).
