I hate you all for having Hollywood Video stores near you.

Here's the other stuff I've picked up during the week:

Wednesday:

Both DVD sets (11 DVDs in total!) cost me $5 - I'll be trading these in to the FYE store a few miles away to get credit to buy some games (they're worth about 30 together). South Park is mint and cost me $4. I bought it to replace my beat up copy.


*blushes* I had no idea what these are, but they're ridiculous movies, so what the hell. XD

Thursday:

Enemy Territory: Quake Wars was $3 brand new (it's for me); Civ IV Mac was a buck (for ebay); Marvel Super Heroes was two bucks (for Goozex, I need the points, and the game sucks. )

Friday (Today):

Random Video Professor things: 3 bucks each. For eBay. I left three behind which I'll be picking up tomorrow.


Contra - $3
Wizardry Archives - $1 (for eBay, apparently these are super valuable?!)
Word 2000 SR-1 - $2 (but... I think it's a bootleg, dammit.)
Picture It Publishing - Paid too much. :P

Arrived in the mail today from Amazon:

DS:
Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia (new) - $27.99 shipped

This puts me at 30 DS games.

I went to Hollywood video andf got a few games. They actually had a dreamcast game, Blue Stinger. I was shocked.

I just got home from the mall...

The upstairs Gamestop had a big cardboard box sitting by the counter. I walk up to it and see a bunch of posters, mostly for the new James Bond. I look a little deeper, and realize that this is all the holiday promotional materials. I figure that they're putting everything up, but then I notice that they're already done swapping all their displays. "They sent us a double shipment. You can take whatever," says the lady behind the counter.

^_^!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pictures after I go through everything.

Pop Star promo box
XBox Live card promo backings
XBox camera boxes
XBox 60gb HDD box
Memory Stick Poster
Destroy All Humans poster
"Santa Bunny Display" assembly instructions (my friend took the bunny, we let them throw out the rest of the display)
Bag of shelf clips for Call Of Duty sign
TWO big packs of promotional case inserts
"Marketing Guide" - lists all the stuff that each store gets, where to put it, and how to put it together (NEAT!)
Call of Duty...thing - I haven't opened this one yet. No idea what it is...
Gears of War 2 promo cases X4 (I can always use green cases)
GameStop-Make-A-Wish-Foundation buttons




Posters, section signs, big-boxes, etc.

Now I need to figure out where to put everything. I could turn my room into a GameStop, heh heh heh...

I skipped on all the big Christmas signs and stuff that wasn't really game-related. Still, I needed my friend to help carry the stuff to my car. Those posters are just really big...

Edit: I looked in that Call of Duty package. The "mission briefing" is a guide to hosting a release party for CoD. There's more promotional signs and stuff, of which I particularly like the used system stand-up signs.


"GameStop Department of Defense"



Lastly, I was going through the case inserts, and I stumbled upon THIS. I thought that the "Imagine" series was about things you could GROW UP to be!

Great find. I watched a few of those on late-night cable when I was younger. Picasso Trigger is another one in that bunch. The man was a visionary when it came to casting Playboy playmates in B-grade action movies. Every few minutes, somebody gets naked, something blows up, or somebody dies in a creative manner. Good times.
