This stuff brings me back. When I was living in Northern Washington thrift stores were more commonly found than actual grocery outlets, it was a 5: 2 ratio of thrift store versus normal businesses. Some of my favorite things I got growing up were found going thrifting with my mom every second weekend, we could drive away with a car packed literally full of good stuff having barely spent over 50$, for all of it. I especially remember getting my DSi XL and a game called Touch of the Dead, a pretty standard zombie shooter for the DS and lots of old GBA games from thrift stores and pawn shops and things of the like. This series is so good I wish you would do more of it

Years late but Myth: The Fallen Lords is one of my all time favorite games and that isn't a mac copy it's a Mac AND PC copy because Bungie used to be a great company. The whole story of Myth II: Soulblighter and how it basically ruined Bungie financially despite being a smash hit (they had to recall all the disks like 2 days before they were on sale because the uninstaller would wipe your C: drive) is pretty fascinating and Bungies early games are all pretty innovative for the times.

Ah the get away. I remember when that game came out Game stop did a promo deal if you traded any 3 games you would get a free copy of the get away. Well they had no restrictions on that and at the time kabuki warrior on the xbox was like 2 bucks, getting 3 copys was 6 bucks and I got the get away, well turns out they had no cap on it, and the get away was valued around 25 30 bucks for trade in XD oh boy in the end the manager cut me off finally.

I wish the thrift stores near me had even close to the amount of stuff you always seem to find. Finding any one of the things you come up with is pretty rare for me, lol. I'm in Salt Lake, so we have Deseret Industries (DI, same idea as goodwill / Salvation Army, but they don't tend to have a huge amount of electronics. They do get some pretty neat stuff in sometimes, though.

Gee, I remember Prodigy. My mom's Compaq 486 came with it installed. OF course this was a Windows 3. 1 machine and the version of Prodigy we had I believe was DOS-based, but it had its own GUI. I never used it though as everyone pretty much had dial-up. I think the first real -Internet- type service I used was CompuServe, which you covered in a later video I believe.

After watching your amazing -luck- I decided to investigate a few local Goodwills here. Nothing there but worthless, exorbitantly overpriced tat that left me just plain mad that I wasted my time. I enjoy watching your episodes much more than actually trying to do it myself. My conclusion, it's persistent -work-, not -luck-!

Saw this, and then a few days later snagging that same (Also CIB) iMac DV SE for 50 locally on Craigslist, with an external drive and a handful of games. They said it comes with some edutainment games. Crossing fingers for Humongous ones?
