This isn't how it works, you only make the topic if you actually have a find to post. Which would technically make ME the supposed topic creator this weekend but whatever....here we go!

I am not 100% sure, but all Gamestops are no longer taking DC stuff, so they are trying to clear out all they have. I would then assume it is nationwide--call your local Gamestop and see what they say.

Those are actually pretty good deals! I'd love to get ahold of Fantasy Zone: Maze. FF Tactics goes for a pretty penny on eBay I think.

This was my first visit to Game Crazy, i think it beats the hell out of GS!! Besides, i went to gamestop earlier today and there weren't no "Big Sale" goin on. In fact when i walked in i saw what was left of there DC games in these 2 long cardboard holders with "All Games $9.99 and Under!!" written on them. Well I jumped right in and grabbed a bunch i wanted and took em up to the counter. Then they said "oh, we just put those DC games in those holders to keep them together, they aren't on sale" Which made me feel like an ass, cause i didn't want to pay the too high prices that they were originally marked. Game Stop...kiss my ass :angry: ....cause i'm goin to Game Crazy from now on LOL

We still have a Babbages and Software Etc. store out here, although the others officially changed their names to Gamestop. Well, the other one or two that were open before Gamestop spread throughout Portland like a rash a year or two back.

My first find in the wild! Nothing exceptionnal, but I was so impressed that I finally found worth buying, I had to do it. 10$ canadian, the sonic 2 was a bonus. Comix zone was sitting in the genesis (40$ with the 3 games I took, a few sports game and no a/v cable) beside it's crushed box, and when I opened the box at home I found it. Too bad I already had this one.

Not RARE per se but Alf is hard to come by. SMS games complete for 4.00 arent that bad of a price actually, I've seen em worse. Not to mention that most of these games are pretty damn good
