Antarctic Adventure is a good one.

When it comes to buying cheap, for the Famicom it isn't a matter of which ones. The pricing of any game is all over the place. But you've just gotta look out for cheap lots, where you can get games for $1 to $2 a piece.

[zer0cool]

Yeah maybe ill go that way...looking for a lot that is ...i made the mistake of buying single games when i started collecting nes and got reamed in the long run by shipping.

[JC]

And when the items are coming from Japan, the shipping will ream you even worse.

[Nickv]

ummmm yahoo japan lots arnt to bad and if your only buying carts its not bad on shipping. its when you buy a bunch of famicoms and fds when they really kill you on the shipping.

famicom and fds. maybe not the best over all  just the cheap and easy to find at a good price.  like kirby,  lets try and start a list.   

• Hoshi no Kirby
  Family Circuit
  Gun.Smoke
    pulse line Mario Bros

I got a pulse line Mario Bros. for USD $8 shipped, but i don't know if they're all that cheap.

[NintendoKing]

I got Mario Bros Pulse Line for only 4$ shipped.

[nurd]

I got Mario Bros pulse line in an Antarctic Adventure box, with AA manual, inserts and stuff for 1.99 shipped. :p

If you paid more than $20 for single loose game, you paid way too much.

[NintendoKing]

Everyone needs to own a copy of Mario Bros pulse line.

Unless its a pirate multi or such.

[nintendodork]

Not too many pirates are worth that much...maybe the major Mario pirates...MAYBE...but nothing else
Some games I'd recommend:
Hoshi no Kirby
Family Circuit (Fun racing game)
Gun.Smoke (Disk, VERY fun shooter) I got this in Famicomshop for $6

If you paid more than $20 for single loose game, you paid way too much.

There are plenty of single loose carts that cost more than $20...

Takahashi Meijin no Bouken Jima IV
Spartan X 2
Akumajo Dracula
Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa
Daiku no Gensan
Daiku no Gensan 2
Seirei Densetsu LICKLE
Moon Crystal
Recca

I could probably list 40+ more so I wouldn't say that no game should cost more than $20.

[nintendodork]

I think he meant in general, but those are all good examples of expensive carts, a loose disk with SMB and SMB2j on it goes for about $20
