Actually, I'm more of a poly'game'ist. I'm married to at least thirty or so old games.

fixed



the only game I have thats of any value whatsoever is chrono trigger for SNES, and thats worth about $60 from what I've seen at game stores, other then that, maybe Mystic Quest, I have tons of NES and SNES games and buy any I dont have whenever I get the chance

The only thing I dont like about the older games is when I find an older cartridge in mint condition, only to look on the back and see a name in permanant marker

Cougars are old though. You still have quite a ways to go.

Less now that the nearby game trading store got shut down by Wal-Mart. But there's one a half-hour away that I might try going to again sometime.

Way of the Samurai was always really interesting...flawed, but interesting. I'll have to try the sequel.

I get old used games all the time, preferrably not from EB...ok, NEVER from EB.

I got Max Payne 2 for 2 bucks.

Where does everyone get their used games at? I know someone mentioned Goodwill. I never even knew they carried video games.

There isn't any place I really know of around here that sells used games.

A specialty place here called Vintage Stock or Gamestop.

Of course I do!

I bought myself Dragon Warrior III for the GBC and Kid Icarus for the Gb yesterday. Only 7 bucks.

Bonanza's officially my rival. (I'm in it to win, honey!)

I bought Eternal Ring for $3.99 a week ago, and Legaia 2 for $7.00. As the old saying goes "if you wait to buy, you can sometimes save money."

Oh, and I got Onimusha 2 for $6.00.

I get mine from the local EB/Game Crazy/random vintage store or off ebay. The used games on ebay are usually cheaper and in better condition than the ones I find in stores.

I know that pawn shops carry used games, too. I just haven't bothered to check one in years.

The one that got closed down was called "Big Kids". (um, yeah...)
The one a half-hour away is called Slackers. That one does pretty well for being on the same block as a Wal-Mart. Though part of it might be that the Wal-Mart isn't a full-sized Supercenter.

after I completed this set:

I stopped going after older games. there's nothing I can think of that I want and don't have.

Way of the Samurai 1 was amazing.

I'm still looking for Phantasy Star Online Episode 1&2 PLUS for Gamecube for a reasonable price
