DreamThrift

Seems like forever since I did a big video game hunt, Doubt sometimes enters my mind like I think the thrift has dried up, It's over I think all the charity shops check ebay now, Everyone sells and trades on facebook, There will be nothing left out in the wild!

This is always unfounded, There is always something to buy, Just the other night My girlfriend was going on about the dream phone board game from the 90s she wanted to get one back for some nostalgia kicks, She checked ebay and the vintage ones where going for around £40, I told her to hang tight, Thinking I see a lot of board games out and about might turn up sometime down the line.

Ended up finding it in the first charity shop I hit up, £2 complete.
The knock on effect of this I spent the rest of the day with a pissing dream phone under my arm, The woman in CEX wanted to steal it off me, Who would of known carrying a Dream phone round with you is a good conversation starter.

As for the video games, Wrestlemania The arcade game was a totally awesome find,
Its a game I like and want to play with high resale, The mission on PS1, Another case of it coming up in conversation just before I found it, I was trying to explain this game to my mate the other night a bit drunk, 

"It's like a football game mixed with mission impossible based on a advert from 2000"

Needless to say it will be a lot easier to prove I didn't dream it now I own it.



So on to this week's footage and the best thing I found all day, Curse for the Sega mega drive is a Japan only shoot'em up, You do see the odd cart only Japanese game and sometimes a few boxed ones now and again but nothing ever this obscure.

The condition itself was amazing the manual was so crisp and the box and cart so clean, This was well looked after, The game is your standard shooter fair, I like the shield system where it takes energy off you, So you can take a few hits before you die and all the power ups are pretty awesome, It's no truxon or Thunder force, But it is a pretty decent shooter, as well as being a hard as nails, This one is not for the faint hearted.
