Y's - $5, cart only - Very cool find! This is Y's 1: Ancient Y's Vanished Omens, the first game in Falcom's still ongoing action-RPG series. It's a very simple little game, but still is a good game. Y's 1 has a very odd combat system where you don't press an attack button -- you just attack when you bump into enemies. Hit them from the front and you'll lose health, hit them on the sides or back and they will. There are some later, improved versions of this game, most notably the Turbo CD version (as well as some more recent remakes, I think the PSP has a good version?), but this version is still interesting to have. Too bad it didn't have the case though. Oh well.

TMNT II - $5.25, cart only - The sequel to Konami's side-scrolling action game. It's sort of part platformer, part sidescrolling beat 'em up. The first game was short and pretty easy. I think this one is similar, but I'm not sure. The third one's the real find, it's rarer than the first two, has a more open-world design instead of just linear stages, and is more difficult... I'd love to get a copy of that one. Still though, I haven't played this one before and I'm happy to have it.

GT64 Championship Racing - $1, cart only - I got this because it was just a dollar. It's a simmish racer, nothing special, but for an N64 racing game for that price I'm not going to refuse.
