Gamed2Death Swap Meet Scavenge 3

For the third week in a row, we decided to return to the swap meet, this time over two consecutive days, given that the first day was fairly disappointing. Porpoisemonkey made a few purchases on the first day, but Anglerbe and myself didn't find anything worth monetary sacrifice. However, on the second day, we were joined by Jburitto, StevieJay, Eljoeyo and one of their friends, and our luck was much more admirable, as we cam across several of the best gaming carts and random gems flung among the vast collections of garbage that compose many swap meets and garage sales. Naturally, given such an environment and a surprisingly rich assortment of merchandise (compared to what is usually available, at least), we felt almost obliged to make purchases. Actually we don't take a liking to the spending of money solely for the purpose of claiming that we carried out such an action, but there were quite a few items that we found that were certainly worthy of attention and consideration (infact, I would strive to claim that some of the deals I encountered heretofore [I learned that word from The Scarlet Letter]) I'll reveal beforehand that the majority of our purchases leaned far more towards video games than other  related hardware. As usual, we made an update video to accompany the following list, but until I get around to putting that together, I'll publish the list below (as per usual, once again):

1.
Game:     Golden Eye 007
Purchased by:     Anglerte 
Price:     4$
Platform:     Nintendo 64
Year Released:     1997
Rare?:     Somewhat, likely because no one wants to sell it.
Other Significance: One of the greatest first person shooter games of all time, in decent working condition, for  only 4$. I think I won.

2.
Purchase:    Nintendo 64 Controller, Green
Purchased by:     Anglerte
Price:     5$
Year Released:     1996
Rare?:     No

Other Significance:     I want four controllers, maybe more if I can find some of the rarer design for a reasonable price in acceptable condition. StevieJay offered to let me borrow a few of his temporarily, but in the long run I hope to obtain at least four fully functional controllers with efficient buttons and control sticks, even if that means I have to take them apart and clean them out. 

3.
Purchase:    Nintendo 64 Controller, Atomic Purple
Purchased by:     StevieJay
Price:     5$
Year Released:     1996
Rare?:     No

Other Significance:   He already has four controllers, but one of the control sticks is a bit dysfunctional and this thing is a translucent purple.

4. 
Game:     Wave Race 64
Purchased by:     Anglerte 
Price:     5$
Platform:     Nintendo 64
Year Released:     1996
Rare?:     No
Other Significance: Wave Race: Blue Storm was one of my Nintendo GameCube  and I heard positive things about its predecessor, so I decided to investigate

Game:     Perfect Dark
Purchased by:     Anglerte 
Price:     5$
Platform:     Nintendo 64
