Well, I ended up grabbing some great stuff at a flea market yesterday and decided to post here to see if anyone else has a bunch of retro gaming stuff. I really enjoy playing the games on their original consoles, though I do have emulators as well.

I have multiple NES, SNES, Dreamcast, Sega, N64, and Atari consoles. I picked them all up for dirt cheap used. Yesterday I ended up grabbing another N64, NES, and Sega for $115 (including tons of games, as well as some SNES games). SCORE!

    How could you sell that? How could you part with Mr. Rockatansky so easily?
    A pox on your house.

    I have a SNES. I can kick any of your asses in the Royal Rumble, as long as I get to be The dead man. The phenom. The Undertaker. REST IN PEACE MUTHAFUCKAS.

    I have a ton of video game consoles and some are just in storage in my apartment.
    I have every sony console, most nintendo's, and all sega consoles, including the huge gamegear and dreamcast.
    They are pretty sweet. But I have one of my computers hooked up with some 360 controllers and just run emulators from my computer.
    Way easier to set up.

    I was heartbroken, let me tell you.
    but I nicknamed my cats Master and Blaster as part of my grieving process.

    Craigslist!
    I sold mine there and I see them all the time.
    Just stay the fuck away from ebay, they ask $40+ for a N64, its ridiculous.

    Garage sales? you clearly don't understand how opposed to moving off my couch I can be. haha. ya i checked craigslist after i read this board and saw a couple things. Nothing with any games I particularly want, but definitely hopeful. Thanks for the idea cash

    The real deals aren't on craigslist though. Because people who sell for stupidly low prices don't know how to use a PC, because they are stupid :p

    HA. Yeah right, people on craigslist are desperate and need the money. I always find amazing deals there. People at fleamarkets and swap meets always try and hold on to items, ESPECIALLY retro games, cameras, and music items. They want the most they can get, you'll pay 7 bucks for one damn game, easily. People on CL sell in bunches, like me. 50 bucks for everything, that was a fucking steal for someone because I dont have the time to go to a flea market and needed the money as soon as possible.
