Shaq Fu for Free is still too much

He didn't have enough cash to pay me to take it off his hand, so I went easy on him.  :P

Btw, Kaysow what is that street fighter game on ps2 you have?

Alpha Anthology. i just can't help myself with compilations and trilogy rereleases; it's often a ton of value in one small package.

for some reason a whole bunch of PS2 games were recently repressed in europe, so you can easily find new discount copies of stuff like marvel vs snk, dark chronicle, dynasty warriors, kingdom hearts, yakuza, dmc and even zone of the enders and shin megami tensei. compared to what's popular today i'd call most of it pretty niche, but back on the ps2 gaming as a whole was just niche in general.

I went to a 'rummage sale' this morning at a local church.  Found a copy of Mario Kart 64 priced for $2.00.  Ended up paying $1.00 for it.  Label was in decent shape and after taking a magic eraser to it, looks almost new.

The fact that you haggled a game that was a steal at 2$  to 1$ at a CHURCH sale.... I bow to you sir. lol

Probably not a whole lot of haggling, I do it all the time at garage sales. I see a sticker and say

"would you take $1 for this?"

And then I get it. 8)

I see Shaq Fu all the time (Californians migrate up to Oregon all-the-time and leave their garbage in our thrift stores)

Oh, I was just joking about the situation, as 2$ I wouldnt have even bothered to haggle, but I guess I am a baller like that, spending extra washingtons on a whim. That and it was lulz it was a church event, reminds me of those people that make change when they pass out the offering plates etc.

I played Shaq Fu back in the 90's.

It sucked even back then, but it was still memorable. Could never forget Memphis for some reason.

I had Shaq Fu as a kid on Super Nintendo, and actually beat it, sadly.  I want to get both SNES( ) and Genesis(√) versions as an honor to my childhood.

Others on the list I'm missing from my childhood:
SNES Buster Busts Loose
SNES Mario Fun with Numbers
GEN Ghouls n Ghosts
GEN John Madden Football
GEN Contra Hard Corps

This is Chubby; He hates Game Case Sellers who steal our artwork to profit their lazy kingdoms.

But he sure loves his Shaq Fu!

Are all really solid titles that have stood the test of time.  You could have done a lot worse when picking games to be nostalgic about :)
