This week (in the mail)
12. Oct 2007 at 19:41

I received one inexpensive parcel early in the week
Trolls on Treasure Island (loose) (square corner variant)

And one not so cheap parcel:
Boxed original Top Loader system
Sealed original Dogbone controller
NTF2 Test Cart (grey)
Joystick test cart (yellow)
Boxed R.O.B.

I bought those (and a bunch of other stuff which has yet to arrive) after I swore I was going to stop spending so much on my collection, lol.

Well its a new week. And that means a new fight with my wife about spending way way too much on NES.

Monday in the mail I got 3 packages.

Package 1:
CIB Black Box games for around $10 a piece including:
-Balloon Fight
-Gyromite
-Ice Climber
-Mach Rider
-Pro Wrestline
-Wild Gunman

Box 2: 45 boxed Sachens which cost me a kidney.

Box 3: Around 30 boxed or CIB games which cost less than $10 a piece including:
Gun Nac
Indiana Jones (Taito)
Impossible Mission 2 (AVE)
Joe and Mac
Asterix (PAL)
Bee 52
WWF King of the Ring
and a lot of others I cant think of at the moment.

Tuesday in the mail I got an extra deluxe set (I needed the parts for my CAN Deluxe set box) and a US version of the Power Pad (to provide the box and manual for World Class Track Meet). Both those are in the pics somewhere. I ended up taking the pics at around midnight on Tuesday.

I usually have to clean that room once a month since its the spare bedroom and sometimes the inlaws stay over. So thats an indication of how much mess I make each month. In a way its cleaner now than before since I didnt have the shelves. Everything was in boxes. Most of my loose games are still under that bed and my dupes are boxed and in the closet.

Edit- I dont know where the T-shirt came from. She bought it for me but it looks better on her.

Edit2: Wednesdays mail. 3 boxes (Cool World, Hogan's Alley and I forget the other one) and a manual (Super Glove Ball) all from burnambill.

This week in the mail I received a bunch of boxed games

Cliffhanger (box is poor)
Defendes of Dynatron City
Double Strike
Freedom Force
Hook
James Bond Jr
Mechanized Attack
Mickey's Safari in Letterland
Puzzle

I needed all the boxes, the games are all in good condition (so I can trade them) I was just hoping they'd have instructions too (and they didnt)

I've been searching a long time for one. I bought a boxed Sunsoft WideBoy. Lets just say it was not what I thought I was getting, lol (it was a magnifying glass) Al

Thanks i guess, i've been searching for a while also. Then i learned there are 2 versions of it. Much later i heard pirate converters were made to play GB stuff on the N64. Everyday a different lesson i suppose.

Back on topic, received in the mail today DS game Prince of Persia Battles and 5 PSX beta's. Mega happy since 2 of them are ultra cool namely Wu Tang, Shellshock. Wu Tang's engine was also used for the ureleased Thrill Kill which is clearly noticable.
