I didnt want to make a separate post for this, but would anyone be interested in like 100+ NES dust sleeves? I reallllllllllly dont wanna try and sell them on ebay but they are taking up space lol.

Like 10$ + shipping cost(i would guess 10-15, however since its so liight maybe less) gets you all of them  have like 7 or 8 game boy plastic game cases ill throw in there too
I may be interested.

don't let it get out of hand, now. I know that feeling all too well. Just stick to games you know you'll enjoy playing, or have sentimental value.

For sure, I actually have an excel file that only has the games I want, and I stick to that list. I even have a column for acquired, and if I made a cover for it.

Shiren: The Wanderer ($15 "new")
Phantom Brave ($10)
Lost Planet ($2)
Genji ($3)
N3 ($5)

These were all Gamestop purchases.  Pretty happy with all of them and hoping to find more older games for only a few bucks lol.

Also seems like Gamestops I visit all have an over abundance of Wii games.  Games I've usually never even seen on their shelves are now appearing.  Shiren and Phantom brave for example I've only ever seen new on shelves when they were released and never used...but now they seem to be all over the place.  Guess people are trading in their Wii games cause of the Wii U?

Either way...I hope this trend continues lol, there's still a few Wii games I really want to pick up.

Also got prometheus but still debating on whether or not I should return it.  I got it mainly as an impulse buy and it was on sale but don't know if I care enough to have it.  I mean I enjoyed the movie and all and I doubt I'd regret keeping it....but I just dunno :\

I would return Prometheus.  The first half was terrible, but it did become a great movie.  However, by the time you really want to see it again, it might be lower in price (near the $15 mark compared to $25-29 IMO.

However, I have watched it twice since I put it on Vudu, once by myself and another with friends.  So to each their own though

I saw it in theaters and I did enjoy it...in terms of the Aliens movie series the movie wasn't great...but a standalone movie I thought it was just fine.  But yeah, I thought about that too in that in a year or so (maybe even sooner) the movie will be half the price.  So I probably will return it since i'm already having my doubts...I'll just have to remember to pick it up before the digital copy code expires haha

Don't you already own almost all of the N64 games out there? Why are you buying more?

Lately I haven't had any money to spend on any games and stuff, but last weekend I got lucky and won a few things in a raffle :D
So everything I got here was for free :> Mind, most of this probably isn't worth too much, but I sure can't pass up a free NES :P (plus I've had my eye on Twin Snakes for a while :>)
And the NES and NES games all are in working condition (NES is a bit dirty though) and the other 2 are so clean I doubt I'll have problems with them XD

Well thats the great thing about building nes collections. Since it has so many games and so many titles and was popular for as long as it has been there are games everywhere. Also too, they are in most cases priced dirt cheap, couldn't tell you how many I have been through for 1$ each, even the more expensive titles
