I have about 4 Blockbusters that I like to check for used games. I noticed that the game sections have maybe 4 or 5 Gameboy Color games for rental and NO GameBoy Advance stuff. It appears that they are no longer carrying any GameBoy stuff anymore.

I never rented but I like to buy them used, but now they won't have any for rental or sale.

Anyone else notice this ? :roll:

Bummer. But then, as far as I can remember the Blockbuster near me hasn't ever had GB or GBA stuff. The "used" table is pretty much limited to PSX/N64/PS2/Xbox. But I did pick up a boxed Space Harrier 2 for $0.99 there last month! Weird.

Also, I learned that they put bare N64 carts in opaque packaging when the labels are really f*d up. I picked up a Mario 64 and found that the label had been 70% torn off. At least someone had helpfully used a blue marker to write "maro" (yes, maro) on it. (When I took it back and said I was returning it because the label was a mess and that no, I hadn't tested it, the guy looked at me funny.)

Anyway, I have always felt, and continue to feel, your pain.

the blockbuster here doesn't carry any gameboy games either. :/
