I got Wolfenstien 3D for SNES for $3, yeah I know the game sucks but I love Wolf3D so much that I'm trying to collect all the versons. I got some PSX game I have never heard of called SwagMan, it was $5. The only reason I got it was because the cover looked cool. And I got Acecombat for PSX, it was $3. Tommrow I'm going to another one thats supposed to be really big, I hope I find some rare stuff like prototypes, rare systems, etc. etc.

I ought to see if there are any pawnshops or flea markets here in Oregon, so I can scan them for hard to find gaming goods. Like a TG16.

TheBagofSand, you have my envy, I've been looking through MANY torrent trackers trying to find the first Air Combat, a pure bread classic and an excellent example of what Namco could do with the PSX in its early years (c'mon, that game had few loading times and HUGE environments!).

Not bad, nothing beats me getting Snatcher for £1.50 though I picked up Shadow Hearts Covenant for £5 yesterday too- is it worth playing? :\

They also have two sega cd games, one is Sliphseed i think and i forgot what the other one was called but it looked like a space shooter. They also had Virtua Racing for saturn brand new for 5 bucks and some other psx games and a buttload of snes flight simulators (thats where i found air combat) and he had Saturday Night Slam Masters, looked cool.

I personally would grabbed Saturday Night Slam Masters, even if it is a tad dated by todays standards

I raided my flea markets this past Feb-June for all they were worth. I at one point bought 4 sealed SNES games, and sold them and made like $180 profit! Anyway, with my want list, essentially "dead,"... I have no urge to head back. I reaped 'em for all they were worth. There was 1 vendor who traded with me... 2 of my snes games for 1 of his... regardless. so i had crazy trades like bubsy+f-zero for metal warriors etc.

If they were a good price and you have a Sega CD, you should get them, or at least Silpheed. If the other space shooter was something like Sol Deace/Feace or Soul Star, get it. Those are pretty good too.
As far as flea market/pawn shop deals, I've had more good run-ins than I can keep track of, but I do get there "too late" every once in a blue. I've also made some buying choices I regret a little.

If it was polygonal 3d then it was probably Silpheed, if it was 3d game play it was probably Soul Star.
