Want some Golden Idol pins? I do! They only get made if this gets funded:

If The Shining was made today, Jack Nicholson would say "What's up chat!"

"Has a bad disk reader, or so I've been told. Ain't got much use for a broken down old GameCube anymore, no sir. Oh, she lost her audio-visual cables long ago. Time was, long ago you could head round the cracker barrel and get yourself a pair of bongos and one of them microphones and play some Odama

eBay listing with the title "Nintendo Gamecube Only. Has A Bad Disk Reader So I've Been Told..."

Yeah, I mean, Tetris/Game Boy had just come out and it was clear how impactful that was; Atari had like a tiny handful of Lynx games to launch in Japan so it made sense to try to get people to want Klax and buy a Lynx just for that

you'll never believe this

It was the '90s and there was time for Klax.

writing the title of the US release of DuckTales in Japanese:

Atari / Digital Eclipse no longer has any control over the previous versions of the game. We worked directly with Disney to license this game to publish it on Switch and Switch 2.

It's a duck-blur!!! The time is now!

Nine years of waiting ends tomorrow!

The Power Rangers game in this bundle absolutely slaps and it bugs me I don’t see more people talk about it. Shantae is a good one too but everybody already owns it. No bad games that I’ve played in here overall.

Was about to buy this Li'l Cactus only to discover it was FIFTY ONE DOLLARS

Went to Little Tokyo and found a Square Enix Pop-Up Shop!

Everything is obviously hideously expensive but this was the cheapest way to get the new Chrono Trigger Orchestral CD...

Hotel desk with outlets for CAT5, audio, composite AV, s-video, VGA and DVI. Also it's not hooked up to anything anyway.

ah, I have arrived at the hotel. welp time to plug my phone in to the ol' USB...

Yep! Just like the game genie

Of all this cool stuff I think Space Strike might be the actual big find? It's the first game by Michael Abrash, and it was only released for IBM in an era when IBM was not actually a popular platform for games yet.

Finally! I have NEVER seen this before and could not find any data about one being sold. Magicard, a Game Genie style device by a Taiwan company called Gamtec. They also made original games.

PAL Mega Drive games for $10 each?!

Bought some random PS1 stuff from a former Sony employee. Crime Crackers is interesting because it's PlayStation game number three!

I got these baggie Datamost games! Love to find baggie stuff in the baggie. Look at that insane Pig Pen cover

Heathkit robots! $2000 each. Apparently in full working condition.

Went game shopping in the South Bay today! Here are some pictures of things.

1 - Ran into my friend Joe, who recently bought the Companion, a pair of walkie-talkies made by Nintendo in the 70s!

Oh... oh no. Do i have to report this to legal

10 years ago we had phil, reggie, and layden, now we smoke that reggie til we have our phil and have to layden 😔😔

I don't know where else to post this so I'll just say it here:

The two Capcom Disney games in this eBay lot are intentional forgeries of prototypes. They're retail games that have stickers put on them with fake weathering/aging, and product codes that make no sense. I have handled these in person.

Thanks, we think so too! 😀

Feels like a good day to point out for whoever needs to understand it that Pokemon is actually controlled by The Pokemon Company, which Nintendo has a stake in, but is not actually Nintendo

It's probably a good idea to just sell one's game collection into this crazy market right now. However, I am stupid

I know Skylanders is pretty dead these days, but I found a prerelease E3 2011 variant in storage that's apparently super rare and still kinda sought after? We'll see how it goes:
