So were these buys any decent?

Got a mint condition Rez for 30 bucks, and since the computer didn't have a SKU for Raiden Project when someone tried to trade it in, I offered the guy two bucks and he accepted. It's the one in the plastic vertical case, compilation of Raiden 1 and 2. Did I make a wise decision there?

Gee hmm... let's see.... a game for 2 dollars, I wonder if i made a wise decision. Durpee durr.

I think odds are slightly greater than being hit by lightning that you made a good deal.

Personally, I don't know, but Syxx573, have you ever heard of the Duck Hunt/Super Mario NES Game? Apparently not.

[bluberry]

Heh... he had some other stuff like some old sports games, too, but I wouldn't play them and they're pretty common. So RP was a pretty good buy, especially for 2 bucks? Not something dirt common like... SMB/DH?

Yes, but what does Super Mario/Dunk Hunt have to do with Rez and Raiden?

I think he was implying that a Super Mario/Duck Hunt cart would not fall under the "a game is a good deal for $2" statement.

I think everybody's silly for getting into this argument which relies a lot in implied previous knowledge.

Some folks might not realize that Rez is a harder title to come by, and some might think that SMB/Duck Hunt is an unusual title.

Heck, it's a big world out there. "It takes all kinds."

Raiden Project for 2 bucks is a fantastic deal, and I would pay 30 for Rez any day of the week as well.

[esquire]

I'll give you $4 for Raiden Project. You'll double your money. ;)

[ManekiNeko]

Two bucks for Raiden Project, eh? It's a deal at ten times the price.

I bought a copy of Raiden Project for about seven bucks a few years back, and I was pretty satisfied with it. It's a darned good collection and highly collectable to boot.

Cool, thanks! I guess I should keep an eye out for SKU-less games more often... I notice a lot of people try to trade stuff in that won't register. Silly EB. Usually it's old too so they seem willing to part with it at a low low price.

Four bucks, eh? Tempting... very tempting. And as for Rez, it's a good idea to just check stores every now and then. I know at EB it goes for 35 bucks preowned, so once they actually do get it in, it's not overly expensive. So depending on tax and discounts it could range you from 30 to about 38. That's my suggestion, anyways. Or you could pony up 60 to 80 bucks on ebay, which is far too much just like everything else there. Heh, silly ebay. I'd go off on a tangent now, but I'm too lazy.
