Popular Post RickR Posted December 28, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 (edited) Thought I'd start a thread on good deals available at retail stores to share with the group. This first one is at Bed, Bath, and Beyond (in the "Beyond" section ) As after-Christmas sales, they have the mini-arcade LCD arcade games 30% off...$13.99 AND you can use a 20% off coupon for an additional $2.80 off (final price = $11.19) I already had the Pac Man, so I bought the Space Invaders. They also have the Mattel Electronics repro handheld games. These versions have special sound effects. They are 50% off...$7.49, and use a 20% off coupon for an additional $1.50 off (final price = $5.99). I got football as a gift, so I bought basketball and baseball.

RickR Posted December 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2016 Just a note on the Mattel Electronics repros -- they really ramped up the difficulty on the games...and that's a good thing. They are a lot of fun. You'll know the controls, but you'll need to change your old strategies to get good on these things.

jmjustin6 Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Not sure if anyone is a guitar hero fan in here, but i got this for $5 at walmart. The manager told me they were gonna get marked down soon. I asked when? He said "ehh go ahead and take it now" They have it for all the systems RickR, Starbuck66 and Justin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbuck66 Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 (edited) I'll post pics later, but I managed to snag a text label copy of Indy 500 and two driving controllers from Disc Traders last night for 7 bucks! I've been looking for a set for 10 bucks or under, but the going rate on eBay seems to be 20 dollars or so. I had this game as a kid and I loved it! Very happy to have it back in my collection. Also got a copy of Venture for Intellivision for 2 bucks! Edit: Pics as promised!

Starbuck66 Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Got another one at Disc Traders today! Intellivoice module, B-17 Bomber and Bomb Squad (loose, no overlays) for 5 dollars! Also found Frogger for 4 dollars! MaximumRD, LeeJ07, RickR and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starbuck66 Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 GREAT deals right there. They have another one at their other store where I got the driving controllers, boxed Intellivoice with loose copies and overlays of B17, Bomb Squad, and Space Spartans for 25. Almost went for that one but I'm glad I didn't. I've got overlays from my Flashback I can use so I'm set there, and I'm not a boxed collector so that wasn't a big deal. I'm sure I'll snag a copy of Space Spartans at some point for cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbuck66 Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Also never gets old hearing "B-17 Balmber" in that robot voice... something about having it on original hardware makes it more special! RickR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeJ07 Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 I'm jealous for that Intellivoice. Starbuck66 1 Quote "I'd buy that for a dollar!" -Smash T.V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjustin6 Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Ok so not something amazing, but i did get 3 copies of this game for 2 cents each at walmart today. Justin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted August 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 2 cents? How is that even possible? The Walmarts here have ridiculous clearance prices. Like a 4 megabyte (yes MEGA) SD card for $20 (original price $25). Justin and jmjustin6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeJ07 Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 I got Cities: Skylines at Wal-Mart for a ridiculously low price. I wish I had the box handy to see what it was. I think it was as low as $0.96. Quote "I'd buy that for a dollar!" -Smash T.V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjustin6 Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Yea i know. There were 3 left (2 xbox 360 and 1 ps2) i figured why not. So cheap no tax. Although the ones for the wii were still $30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjustin6 Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 My walmart always seems to have something for 2 cents in the electronics section. Most of the time its just a old phone case, but last time i found a Disney infinity captain hook figure for 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbuck66 Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Got all of this for 14.50 at a local game shop last night... they normally sell Atari games for 2 bucks each when they have them, and with a discount card I get an additional 25% off.

Starbuck66 Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 (edited) Finally have a 32x in my collection, along with a spare model 1 Genesis! Now I just need some 32x games... I have a copy of Star Wars Arcade on the way, and I’ll probably snag some others over the coming months.

Starbuck66 Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 Interesting thing... I tried running the 32x with the Genesis it was bundled with, and I couldn’t get it to work. The games would start to load, then glitch with some horizontal bars in the video and a buzzing sound. I tried it with my newer model 1 Genesis (mine doesn’t have the High Definition Graphics written at the top of the console), and it worked like a charm! I need to do further testing of that model 1 to make sure it doesn’t have deeper issues. Finally have a 32x in my collection, along with a spare model 1 Genesis! Now I just need some 32x games...
