Finds (All Others)

[NintendoKing]

i can usually find barebones with games, controllers, the whole set up for  $20-$50 (depending on how many games) in my area

Anyway I look at it his Atari lot is an incredible deal I wouldn't pass on.  Can you really find all that for 20 or 30 dollars?

I have never seen any Atari 2600 go for under $50, the case that came with mine is worth $25 and the lot I bought came with the rare Kid's controller.

Essentially I paid $50 for the system and game, $20 for the uncommon case and $10 for the rare Kid's controller.

wow people must be strict on prices where ever you are, around my parts you can get one with one of the cases for $30. Hell i bought my 2600 vader in the box with all the hook ups and paddle controllers for $20

They are relatively obscure where I live, hardly anyone has one and those that do either sell really high or simply do not sell.

Oh ok.

Recently I got Quarth for the PS2. It's new and still wrapped in plastic. But I think  I'll have to open it for the included CD, DVD and awesome booklet.

PS2 Quarth?!  Is it a new game or what?

[manuel]

It was released in 2006 under the "Oretachi Geesenzoku" label, which roughly means "We're the Game Center Crowd" in English.

See amazon.

6 bonus items were included with every release of this series, and the game disk looks like a 100 Yen coin (see lower right corner of the package on the amazon page). I also have Yie Ar Kung Fu.

Got my 3DS (cosmo black) and asphalt 3D WOO 

[NintendoKing]

3DS causes my vision to blur and my eyes to cross, after roughly 30 minutes of gameplay. I took mine back to the store and demanded a refund after just one day.

[ericj]

Do you have any vision problems, like amblyopia, strabismus, esotropia, exotropia, or other stereoptic issues? I can't see 3D images on TVs due to an eye problem, so I'm less than thrilled about all this new 3D tech stuff...

[NintendoKing]

Nope ericj, I can watch 3D tv's and Real-D films but Nintendo 3DS uses strange eye hurting 3D. I am not the only one either, I have heard many complain about it.

Edit- http://ds.ign.com/articles/114/1142304p1.html
What a suprise an article, saying not to play it for more then 30 minutes in 3D mode... what a worthless handheld.
