[Balloon Fight]

02/03? BF.... you wern't posting here till Sept 03.

I lurked hard, since like march of 03, then went through 02 threads when I was bored.

[Smashed Brother]

While out and about, I found "Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 The Galaxy" (GBC), CIB, for $5. Of course I jumped on that since I've never played this one before.

[darkslime]

Picked up gantz season 1 comic party full series and wario ware smooth moves for about $65 atbookman's.

[vintagegamecrazy]

well, I'm not posting pics but I did get some nice finds this month.

I finally got a DS this month, I got Contra 4, Metroid Prime Hunters and M&M's Break 'em and Brain Age from Game Stop.

I actually found a complete in fair condition copy

NCAA College Basketball 2K3 for GCN also from Gamestop, one of my better finds in a while.

At a thrift that I frequent I found

Jawbreaker and Cabbage Patch Kids Musical Match Up for Atari 2600 for $2.49 each

At Goodwill I found Silent Hill and Street Fighter Alpha 3 complete for $2.99 each and I found Earthworm Jim and After Burner II loose for Genesis for .99 each too.

I'm liking this month so far. Maybe I'll find one more good thing this year.

What's NCAA 2K3 worth these Days?

[Baloo]

I think NCAA 2K3 is in the $45ish range if I'm not mistaken.

I've wanted that World Conflict game for the longest time now, the box is awesome. But I'm sure the game sucks.

The game is actually pretty good. Easily one of the best RTS based on modern warfare. The collector edition comes with a piece of Berlin wall.

[Kyle15]

Great stuff in general, but I can't recommend playing this game enough. Excellent, excellent SRPG. I hope you can get used to the quirky combat system, it seems to be a turn-off for many. Don't let it collect dust for too long.

That's why I jumped on the chance to get it. Quirky stuff is my thing, especially if it doesn't "hold your hand" so to speak. Anyway, thanks for the recommendation. I'm going to give it a try soon.

Picked up Splatterhouse 3 (GEN), excellent condition in the box (no manual) today at Goodwill for $2.17.

Not a bad score for some tradebait.

just purchased an unopened factory sealed black sega sports dreamcast via Amazon. i admittingly paid way too much but have been obsessing over this one for a while. i regret ever getting rid of my black DC years ago. i still have a normal white one, but wanted to see what if feels like to get one that has never been opened before.

I hope those stickers on the spine are on the plastic and not on the insert.

[Porksta]

I hope those stickers on the spine are on the plastic and not on the insert.

Looks like they are on the insert, but they did it the smart way - they didn't take the sticker off the wax paper. Why can't more Gamestops do that?

[PapaStu]

I hope those stickers on the spine are on the plastic and not on the insert.

As you can see in the picture, Gurumin and Phantasy Star Portable both have their spine stickers under the clear sleeve, but are still on their backing. Hammerin' Hero is probably stuck on the outside, but I can't tell in that pic.

@ Porksta, because some Store Managers or DM's require that, even though its not quite GS policy (on the backing under the clear sleeve is fine).

Hammerin' Hero's factory sealed, and the sticker is stuck to the plastic. :P
