ARRGGGG damn you SasoriSoren... Iv been trying to get Fire Emblem since it came out but no store in my town has any, and none of them know if they are going to get any more.

Damn, now I feel like an ass for my fire emblem sitting on desk still sealed and the etrian odyssey 4 i just got yesterday on top of it, need more time lol

That's why day one digital releases are so great, once I heard it was hard to get at stores I just downloaded it and am having an amazing time playing it.

[scarmullet]

I got Fire Emblem easily in the store the week it came out. I guess its not as popular here.

[zygmuray]

I live in a town of about 80,000 people so it is not that big, 1 future shop, 1 Walmart, 1 Ebgames.

Even Etrian Odyssey 4 when I went and looked for it, future shop had 2 and EB games had 1.

So you really need to be on the ball with when games get released.

[SasoriSoren]

Try Kroger, Target, Fred Meyer, etc. I got mine at Fred Meyer because no one hits them up for games ever.

Well at least you have something... The town I live in has none of those things. It used to have a Play n Trade but that closed down less than a year ago.
At least there are 3 thrift stores, but even those barely have anything
(if I could drive then it wouldn't be as bad but...)
Not to mention shipping seems to suck here :/

I can't put that on a shelf though. Plus the cost is the same digital or not so you aren't even saving any money unlike Steam so what's the point.

[Super GDubs Fighter II Turbo: Championship Edition III]

So, finally got a paycheck and had a nice little haul today.

Biggest find IMO: Super Smash Bros. Brawl for 10 bucks

PS2 (CIB):
Street Fighter EX3 $13
Street Fighter Alpha Anthology $6
Sega Classics Collection $4
Legends of Wrestling $2
Taiko Drum Master (saw the drum set at my work, so probs will pick it up) $2
Cabella's Dangerous Hunts 2005 $1

PS1 (disc only, but plan on casing in dvd anyway)
Tomb Raider III $1
Crash Bandicoot 2 $1

[Lambadelta]

Just bought Shining the Holy Ark CIB (pal)

Can't wait to play it.

[segamer]

Shining the Holy Ark is one of my all time favorite RPG's.

[redsox2012]

Good, but not great. :p

Super Metroid goes for $30ish these days, so you essentially payed $20 for old licensed games, a copy of the best version of NES Punch-Out!!(Which I also own the cartridge of), and an NES copy of the one Zelda you really shouldn't have gotten an original copy of. Ah well, at least it's all gold and shiny and whatnot! Seriously though, trade-up for the OG Zelda son.

Dude, you're always bashing on what people pick up and telling them what's good and what's not as if they can't have their own opinions about the games that they bought.  

Where are your great finds?

agreed. be respectful or don't expect to get respect back.

I think its a deal for $50 and hes got a lot of good games that i bet he was looking for.

They were all games I was looking for.  At an average of $5.50 each, I'm pretty happy with my score.  By the way, the Mazin Saga is CIB (and in really nice condition, including the manual).  That's the first time I've ever come across one.  The Zelda is nearly perfect, with just a tiny bit of gold chipping.  The MK3 & Spider-man were just games that I needed for my collection - value is irrelevant to me on those.  I'll buy nearly any CIB non-sports Genesis game for less than $5.

Seconded/thirded/fourtheth, LOL.

A find that one is willing to pay money for is a good find in my book.

Enjoy Super Metroid! Awesome game!

Makes me remember when I found Sunset Riders for $5 lol.

Great Find Today!

I was in Good Will
Resident Evil 2 -CIB PS1- $6

There was also a MGS for PS1 for $6
It had everything, but was missing disc 1. Typical, same with Twin Snakes i got a while back, Missing Disc 1, The world does not want me to have disc 1 apparently.
But in place of disc one as something amazing!
WCW Nitro for PS1.
Well, Underneath that CD was DRAGON FORCE for the Sega Saturn.
Now all I need is a Sega Saturn. I do not know much about this game though, I just new it was rare.

There was a empty Jewel Case for Fire Pro Wrestling S: 6 Men Scramble for the Saturn, the Jap ver. Just the case and back cover.
It had no stickers on it, I asked if I could have it for free, the cashier went to ask, came back with 5 stickers on it for $0.25

Also got Halo 3 disc only from a friend for free, nit sure if it works, it is scratched up, the friend does not have a 360.

Anyone got scans for Dragon Force? I think madrocsz has it CIB. Nevermind, found some.

[SasoriSoren]

Bought these today and I will pick up soon:

http://www.shopgoodwill.com/viewItem.asp?ItemID=12535606

I already have the systems so I am going to take the games I want from each, and the Saturn 3D controller, and sell off the rest making this pretty much free given current eBay prices.

[madrocsz]

Good finds, I do have it CIB but glad you found some scans since I don't have a scanner lol. That shining in the holy ark PAL version? jw as mine looks different lol
