Holy crap.....I've got to go to KB....

We've got a million of 'em around here. Most stuff generally seems to be behind the counter though, so it can be tough to sort through...

I figure they are digging this stuff out out the deepest corners of the back.
Or bringing it in from old warehouse stock

The last time I was at KB I fould 3 packaged Tiger RZone Games..Panzer Dragoon,three of the same game.
They looked to had been sitting for awhile

Last visit I tore up. I got two of those Street Fighter II controllers Capcom made specifically for the game (remember the ad in the box?) for $2 each. Got a DC game sealed (Rayman I think) for $5. DC third party controller $2.99. They had a bunch of sealed Genesis games, but nothing actually worth buying (sports mostly and that Urban Strike).

Got some Sonic figures for Buy 1 get 1 half off. Got some Godzilla figures for $6 a piece. Got the Matrix McFarlance box set (the fight) for $12.99 12-inch Ymir from the Harryhausen collection for $7.99. Mario Kart RC car for $7.99. Huge Crash Bandicoot RC car for like $14.99.

In other words, find a location and get there ASAP. You never know what you'll find.

I never found anything good at KB, and now the ones in my area are closed down.

Last time I was there, got myself a brand new Virtua Fighter 3TB, that made me happy. Also, picked up a good amount of those Sonic figures :D

KB sometimes has surprises.

KB in my local mall closed down. During their liquidation sells they really didn't have much in the way of decent games anymore outside of sports titles and others.

All the KBs in my area definitely don't keep this kind of stock. I remember the last time they did was probably 5 years ago. I'm pretty sure they made a point to get rid of it all, per the management's orders. The last old thing they had was a game.com that I remember.

yeah it surprises me too. I've seen random game.com stuff for awhile. They also have some crap N64 games and I'm sure they'll be their for the next ten years too.

I remember seeing a few copies of Urban Strike and sports titles around at one of the closing stores. There was a lot of third party N64 and Dreamcast crap as well.

A little earlier than that I was at another closing KB on what was literally their last day of business. The remainder of their inventory was in two bins in the front of the store, and a lot of it looked like it had been sitting in boxes in the back of the store for years. There was the same third party N64 and Dreamcast crap, and a lot of plastic toy jewelry that looked like the stuff you'd see at Dollar Tree, a loose Game Gear manual for a Berenstain Bears game (it was black and white - from a majesco rerelease, maybe?), and loose Genesis sports titles. A lot of odd stuff.
