This really isn’t a disaster but more of a tale about a genuine lapse in judgement.  Recently one of the thrift stores I frequent had a 75% off sale in preparation of installing new carpet and such.  I was unaware of the sale until I actually showed up to the store during me weekly visit.  The place was a disaster but there was a huge stack of NES games available.  Almost all of them were sports games and many were in deplorable condition.  A woman told me everything was 75% off which is cool because the games were $3 each making them only 75 cents after the discount.

Like I fool I walked away with only three titles.  I felt the others were in too shabby condition to keep.  That evening the more I thought about it the stupider I felt for not getting the others.  I’ve posted on here before about making new labels for games that have their’s ruined and why I didn’t jump on that opportunity or why I ignored it I’ll never understand.  The next morning I went back to the thrift store if by the odd chance they were still available I was ready to take them.  Goodbye Championship Bowling, RBI Baseball 3, Tecmo Bowl.  You and your bretheran are now in the hands of someone else.  Sigh.
