Very good deal man, Contra is super cool and you'll be able to sale the other games for a bigger price than what you paid. |

N64, sorry.
If anyone wants it, it's in a thick plastic CD case thing and the box is cut out to fit in it. Same with the other sports game. Paper Mario is the only actually CIB one.

I had some great finds today at the swap meet:
http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/7093/img0177u.j...
I see gold cart OoT and Castlevania on his table. Ask for a price and he says $4 each, and I can't get him to go any lower than $7 for both. So, because I don't either of those and it's a pretty good price, I bit. He then goes behind the stand and pulls out boxes for OoT and Castlevania: Legacy of darkness (which I think is different than just castlevania for N64, correct me if I'm wrong.)
I think cool, and ask if he has any more games back there. He says no, but I have just the boxes for some, you can have them for 25 cents each. I figure they will just be average N64 game boxes, but the first one he pulls out is Secret of Evermore, then secret of mana, and I crap bricks. I get him down to a dollar for all of the boxes. After that, I see the Brain Lord box, and remember it was on his table, and it's an Enix RPG, so I go grab it. He gives it to me for $3.
So, for $11, I got:
Zelda: OoT Collector's Edition CIB
Castlevania cart only
Brain Lord CIB
Super Mario 64 box + manual
Zelda: Majora's Mask box + manual
Castlevania Legacy of Darkness box + manual
N64 system manual
Super Metroid box
Secret of Evermore box + manual + poster
Secret of Mana box + manual + poster
Donkey Kong promo VHS
http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/2138/img0179i.jpg
These come from a guy who runs a store with just a bunch of crap, he occasionally gets games in and saves them all for me because no one else buys them. He prices all games at $2 each.
So, for $4 I got:
Bio Hazard Battle CIB
Shadowrun CIB
http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/9319/img0181aeh.j...
The lady wouldn't go any cheaper than $15 for these three.
For $15, I got:
Super Mario Bros. 3
Kirby's Adventure
Pokemon Yellow
http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/831/img0182k.jpg
Golden Sun actually has no game in it, someone stole it, but the guy just threw in the box and manual when I bought Guilty Gear.
For $3, I got:
Guilty Gear X Advance Edition CIB
Golden Sun box + manual
http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/248/img0183r.jp...
Sorry for the bad pic, but that's Pokemon Emerald. It was originally $10, I offered $5 and he said 8, so I bought it for 8.

No, I thought Castlevania and Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness are different games, so I put them seperately?
I'll probably be keeping that lot, sorry about that.

Don't expect these kinds of finds every week. It's once in a blue moon that they actually have anything.
Also helps if you know spanish because you can bargain with them better.
