I have been getting lots of deals lately, especially (and strangly) in the wild. I though I would make a post that covers the last few weeks. Again, I didn’t pay much for any of these, and the money that I did pay I got mostly with trade credit. Ys Seven collector’s edition (PSP) – [...]

I have been on a big Super Nintendo kick over the last few months. I have always loved the SNES, but I have mostly been in it for the RPGs, so to speak. I have resolved to start filling in the gaps in my collection and I must say is that it’s going very well [...]

Here is the second head to yesterdays two part post regarding 16-bit Nintendo finds. Today I will be covering some sweet SuFami imports I have picked up in the last month or so.
