Last night I picked up a copy of N64 Hey You, Pikachu! It was in the preowned stack for $5.99 and still had the box, so I had my buddy who works at EB open it up to see if everything was there. It was complete and still had all the plastics and twisty ties on the VRU cords so I think it was brand New.

Friday: Hey You, Pikachu! $5.99
Saturday: Boktai @ KB $9.99
Sunday: Shenmue II @ KB $9.99

Yeah, but according to DP's Genny rarity list, thats about the right price. Master of Monsters was the better deal, thats an R6!, no instructions though, so I have to figure it out on my own, but it looks like a hex based strategy game, should be no problem.

Somtimes I feel like I'm the only one who gets old games. I feel old...sigh...well here's what I got:

Don't complain! Some of us can't even FIND stuff like the 5200 in the wild. If I saw a Vectrex in the wild, I'd poop my pants.

KB to rescue...
Boktai $10
Kung Fu Chaos $15
Panzer Orta $10
Dynasty Warriors $20 ($30 price drop? Suuuuuure!)
Dead or Alive 3 $10
Otogi $15
FZero GX $20

I wish they had MORE... they just HAD to be sold out of Rygar and Shinobi, didn't they. ;)

Yea the Gamecube works perfect, I'm guessing the unit was stolen, The guy I bought it from said he got it from a "source" and had no Idea or guarantee if it would work or not, He knew damn well what they sell for in stores, I took a risk, assumed by the perfect condition it had a good chance of working :-)

Some KBs did not have the $9.99-$19.99 sale--they had a 20% off all console games (Except GBA) sale. Yesterday, I got the following in the mail:
NGPC with 3 games plus light, AC adapter, and rechargable battery
ICO
Devil May Cry (Non-GH)
And on Saturday, I ordered Summer HEat Beach Volleyball for $4.92 SHIPPED from Amazon. I got Starsky and Hutch for the same. Thanks, www.cheapassgamer.com !
