I don't know if I'd call it rare, but it was cheap and they didn't have Soul Caliber or Shenmue. I will admit that the $10 for the Dreamcast were for the base unit that I found at a thrift store. I had to go somewhere else to buy the controller, VMU, rumble pack and the various cords.

Omicron isn't rare or very expensive, but it's weird and enjoyable.

Maximo, Jak and Sly are all good buys.  I've started looking for the Jak games and the Sly games for myself.

Jak III is an enjoyable game.  I popped in all of these yesterday to play for 10 or so minutes each.  Killzone was suprisingly good, I was amazed at the graphics for a PS2 title.  Sly came off as the most impressive game though, fun controls and oodles of stlye -- they have the after-school cartoon theme down stone cold.  Maximo was also good.  As you can tell I caught up on some seminal titles for the console yesterday, and I'm glad I did.

Hellfire is a good one, I think mine doesn't have a manual, though.

Sounds good, just so you know though, they are two different games, different music -- it's a full sequel -- so if you realy enjoyed the original on the Dreamcast, you might consider picking up a copy you can play. I liked the style and music, but as for gameplay I was completely hopeless, I was endlessly running into walls.

I already have, but I'm going back for the other one :wink: this afternoon, and I'll keep it sealed for the moment. The stick is great and about 8 pounds. I went to a CompUSA over the Christmas break, and bought numerous good deals. They put games on clearance often, it seems.

Another delivery came just after sending my last post.

A boxed, JVC X'Eye, with the original packing materials, pack-in games and hardware (X'Eye, re-marked controller, RF switch and AC adaptor). The pack-in discs are:
1. Compton's Interactive Encyclopedia
2. Prize Fighter
3. JVC CD+G Karaoke Top Hit Sampler
All discs have the original packaging and documentation. The deck is a little dusty, and I didn't get the original manual, but I did get a supplement to it (?!) regarding the A/V out as well as the warranty card. Included in the lot was a Naki porgrammable controller for either Genesis or SNES, and the following Sega CD games:

4. AH-3 ThunderStrike, nm, complete
5. Bill Walsh College Football, new/sealed
6. Bram Stoker's Dracula, v. fine, complete
7. Double Switch, n. mint, complete with foam block
8. Eternal Champions: Challenge From the Dark Side, broken case, complete
9. Mortal Kombat, n. mint, complete with foam block
10. NHL '94, new/sealed
11. Night Trap, v. fine, original double jewel case, no box or manual
12. Prize Fighter (again), pinhole through disc 2 data, complete
13. Sonic CD with a different paint job than retail, n. mint, disc only.

All of this was $130 shipped.

I picked up Tekken 5 Ultimate Collectors Edition #2, and the outer box is in n. mint condition, unlike the shelf-worn one from yesterday. To think, those sneaky guys from Gamestop gave me the ugly one yesterday...(j/k, Sam). I am probably going to hold on to both. I doubt that I will have need of a second PS2 arcade stick, but you hear stories about those impromptu money games of Soul Calibur 3 all the time. :roll:

I also traded in my worse copy of AD&D Iron and Blood, Warriors of Ravenloft. No one needs two copies of that stinker. I used to be a big Ravenloft fan and it has sentimental value, otherwise I wouldn't have it either.

This is a big one.  I took two deliveries of games today.  The first was:

Burn:Cycle Limited Edition, CD-i, new/sealed, $5.54 shipped

and the second was:

Panzer Dragoon, SAT, mint, complete
Panzer Dragoon II Zwei, mint, complete
Panzer Dragoon Saga, mint, complete...all 3 for $167 shipped

On eBay this afternoon, there's a copy of Saga alone that is already over $185.  I got very lucky.

I'll let you know -- the Zelda is a dupe for me -- I'm was most interested in the Secret of Evermore and Mario Kart, the former a Square game and the latter what had been a nasty ommision to me collection. I have the non-licensed Ken Griffey game, so stoked about getting the MLB licensed one.   I generally have not enjoyed the Marvel games that I have.

Well, this thread has really grown recently, and is starting to slow down, as pointed out by Aspro73.  I think that it's time for a "Volume 2" of our New Acquisitions Thread.  So consider this the final post.  Volume 2 is open for business.
