Jumpingflash! is awesome!

Yeah jumpingflash! Is an ace game shame they never did one on the PS2.

I think alpha 3 on the ps1 is a brilliant version. Each to their own though.

For the PSone it' s a good port, but as a Saturn and Arcade fan there is just far to much animation missing for me to enjoy it.

Ive had some good luck recently, however im only gonna post my best find

This was in a box underneath the car boot table on its own in a sea of barbie dolls... I glanced over it once, my heart stopped and i looked again. It was, as I though, a boxed Game & Watch!







As seen above, the unit is new and has never been taken out of its bag
The Batteries are untouched and sealed, and the stickers are also new! A lovely crispy manual too!
The only downside is there is a small crease on the front of the box, however can I complain for 50p?

That's amazing. I'm sure you're buying this from somewhere and claiming it's from a car boot.

Hahaha no all of Adams stuff is from the car booty, he finds some truly amazing stuff, one of these days I am going to cross the border and raid the Yorkshire car booty! (with Adams permission of course )

These G&W do turn up a few years ago I had a crystal screen SMB off a dealer at Christmas for a tenner. Got rid as it had no box.

I can just imagine, lol. I get the same feeling when I see something nice, in fact the price probably increases due to my ""!

Truely amazing find there Cauterize, you know what they say some people are jusy born lucky. All I ever find down car boot sales are a few cheap MD games.

I went to a Yorkshire car boot yesterday, hoping to bump into Adam and some amazingly rare retro games. All I found was a bunch of thugs selling pirated DVDs and, oddly, loads of people selling homemade pasties.

an amazing find Cauterize! That's in beautiful condition! The only game and watches I find are well and truly battered!

Anyways, I found something quite interesting at my local booty as well...

It's a french PS2 press kit, with the info disks and booklet housed in a thick cardboard PS2 mockup. Also comes with an unused T-shirt all in original delivery box (which is a bit stained mind) £4 for this, though I can't find any info on it anywhere and I've never seen anything like it!

[Papercut]

I have one of those too. It was sent out to press people in Europe a month or two before the PS2 launch. That white box you have is what they were delivered in.

ah, cheers for the info mate! Very much appreciated Certainly didn't expect something like it to turn up at a boot fair, that's for sure!

LOL he must be going to a secret one that nobody knows about, as the only car boot sale in leeds that i know of is at cross green trading estate & its in a very rough area.

The description you gave sounds a lot like the one at cross green Criminals selling stolen goods (check) pirated games/dvd's (check) Pasties (lol check) dodgy burger vans (check)

[Cubeboy]

Yep Cross Green a long time ago it used to be good now every stall is pirate goods, out of dsate sweets or burger vans.Occasionally you get sellers trying to flog PS1 and PS2 games for about a tenner each all thown about with signs of care.

The one I went to was near Huddersfield but it does sound very similar, yeah. They're not what they used to be that's for sure.

I feel old.

[t-bone-retro]

Wow, Adam what a fantastic find. I really don't know you manage it. You must cross into a parallel universe on a sunday to find the things that you do.

The closest i've come to a find like that is in a dream!

[Duddyroar]

I am so green with envy right now, Cauterize. 50p!! Madness.
