    I bought Banjo-Tooie and Banjo-Kazooie for N64 off CL for $5 a piece the other day. Had to drive a couple miles to get them but it was worth it

    THE BEST METHOD to run PSX games (and everything else for that matter) is via Retroarch - http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/
    If you have any questions on how to set it up on Windows please feel free to ask, its very easy.

    That was a great deal, going to snoop around on Craigslist for some Nintendo 64 goodies.

    I can't believe that a clay fighters 63 1/3 blockbuster edition instruction manual went for 1200+ on eBay. I have a suspicion that the auction may have been fixed, because that is an insane amount of money for a instruction manual to a game that was mediocre at best.

    Garage sale season! Time to bust out the bush whacker and hiking shoes. Don't forget to take a very large walking stick with you. It can get rough out there in the wild sometimes

    That auction must of been fixed or that person is the biggest Earthworm Jim fan ever.

    Garage sale season indeed. I'm going to carve my own walking stick out of a bigger walking stick.
    Yeah I am going to look for sega plutos and blockbuster editions instruction manuals of mediocre obscure games...

    I really would like to find a virtual boy or a neo geo color pocket.

    I guess, maybe they thought it was worth something...I don't know. Yeah, I'm going to look around for sales. The last one I went to, the lady was too busy visiting with some relative to conduct business. It was sad.

    Had a listing on CL here in the past week were the guy had the Virtual Boy, the entire collection of games, and the blockbuster case. Don't know how much he was asking but I knew I couldn't afford it.

    I found an Apple ii daughter card at a thrift shop yesterday. Its worthless, but I'm still happy.

    That would of been really cool to own a virtual boy. I wonder how much they ended up getting for it. I think wario land for the virtual boy is worth a lot of money by itself. That is probably the only game I would actually play on the virtual boy. I could relive all those childhood moments of standing in sears playing virtual boy while my mom shopped.

    Game quality does not matter for these prices. Demand/rarity does.

    It was a mediocre game with a limited pressing and could not be purchased from a store shelf. You had to purchase it from Blockbuster, which limits the quantity even more. Then take into account how many of those instruction manuals are lost, stolen, or destroyed, and the manuals become even rarer. Especially one that was in as good of condition as that manual was.

    If you go and look on eBay right now, I don't think you'll find another instruction manual out there right now. They come up very rarely. While I don't personally think the manual is worth $1200, I can see why it would be considered the hardest thing to find when trying to find a complete copy of Sculptor's Cut. There are two completed auctions on eBay.com right now of two different manuals in similar condition, both going for ~$1200. I wouldn't say it's fixed. The box usually goes for about $400. It's one of the rarest games for the N64.

    It's amazing what you can find at a thrift shop. I found expensive Italian shoes, and a cashmere sweater at a thrift shop.
