Biggest "WHAT" in classic game buying?

[Tupin]

This could either be good or bad.

I saw a guy on Craigslist try to sell a normal NES with Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt and Mario 3 for $150.  :|

But I also got a brand new in box Genesis for $35 that I can tell was never used.  :)

I found Sonic adventure 2 battle for 8$

I once saw a guy try to sell a copy of FF7 for $300 for he reluctantly lowered it down to $150 and refused to lower it any lower.

I also saw Spyro 3 for 15$
And a Playstation for 10$ at the same store.

So I bought it. :P

Oh yea, I saw some cool stuff at Anime Weekend Atlanta in September (I just remembered now).
Dreamcast for 100 bucks, but no real good games (only JGR for fifteen bucks), so I didn't want it
Sega Saturn for 70 bucks, but the onlny game for it was Sonic R (which I've played already, not to mention I don't care for the Saturn).
Oh, the most interesting thing I saw was a JAPANESE SUPER METROID for the Super Famicom for thirty bucks...it was freakin sweet, but the SNES is region locked, so it wouldn't work on my SNES so I passed it up...

SNES isn't region locked, the cartridges are physically different, but the software is the same.

All that prevents a Japanese game from working in an American SNES is two blocks in the cartridge slot that can be removed. You might be able to use a SNES Game Genie, but don't quote me on that. I slso found a site where they have it for $9.

Oh, and I passed up a CD-i today for $8 because I didn't have any money and that the thing must weigh as much as two or three PS3s.  :D

The fact that Conker's Bad Fur Day still costs, at the very least, the same as most new games.

The fact that Conker's Bad Fur Day still costs, at the very least, the same as most new games.

Loose, I see it around here on occasion for around $20. Pretty good for a game that had a small print run. Boxed however, it goes into around $60-$70 territory, and for some reason when factory sealed ones go up for sale, they usually go for about $100-$120.

I can never find it around here.  I'd buy it used without a box for 20 bucks so long as it worked.

N64 games are common around here, so are PS1 games. My town seems to have been split 50/50 on PS1/N64 ownership.

The only thing is, you can go into a store and buy rare N64 games, but rare PS1 games, forget about it.

Isn't there an adapter to fit PAL and Famicom cartridges into an American SNES?
