Although I already made a post on that introduction thread thing, I'll just say hi again.

I also wanted to brag about how I cleaned up using that GameRush deal a while back. I spent $127, and walked away with $183 in store credit, 13 games for myself, and two Mario Kart Double Dashes. I did this by buying expensive games for cheap and then taking them back to another GameRush. Cheap, I know, but it was worth it.

The main purpose of this post is to tell everyone of a deal at Gamestop. You can trade in a N64 or Playstation (and maybe some other systems, but they werent woth it) and get $30 off any new system besides PS2. Since you can pick up an N64 at EB for 14.99 (and probably for less elsewhere), that is essentially $15 dollars off. The ad says you need a non sports game for Playstation or N64 (or a newer system), but where I went they only required the N64 for the deal.
I used this deal along with trading in the two Mario Karts I picked up earlier to get a new NES GBA SP for $18. Not bad.

Finally, I wanted to post my collection, which I have recorded on a .txt file, but I do not know how. Is there anyway I can upload it or something, or what?

If this post is a waste of space, just tell me.

Well, you could upload it with any service such as Geocities or anything that lets you make a webpage.

Or, you could enter them in at ign.com and display your collection with one simple link, like this.

Can you trade in more than one system and get $30 for each. I have about 5 n64 systems kicking around that I could trade.

The official word is "no" and you can't trade them in for random games, you can only trade them in towards the purchase of a new GBA SP, Xbox, or Gamecube. Also, corporate did send an email saying that just the system is required, "as they realized requiring a game was just stupid" i.e. GBA is $20 in credit, Sword of Mana was $14....so by that, it should be $34. Instead of $20 for the system, they bump it to $30 and forget the game.

Thanks for the heads up on this one. A few weeks ago, I scored a few PS2 games for $2.50 each and used them and a free N64 towards the new GBA SP. Total cost for me (including cost of earlier PS2 games) was less than $30. Now, after I sell my old GBA SP, I will make a profit.
