As some of you guys may remember, a while back I was bitching about how Gamestop and Funcoland routinely throw away tons of perfectly good product because.... Well, I still haven't figured out why yet. But anyways because of this I make it a habit to check out the dumpster in back from time to time. Yeah you can call me a garbage picker if you'd like. i've been called worse before.
Well today I walked away from the TRASH BIN with the following
Complete boxes and manuals for the following SNES games
Chrono-Trigger
Secret of Mana
Secret of Evermore
Illusion of Gaia
Final Fantasy Mystic Quest
Lost Vikings 2
Wizardry V
Wanderers of Y's
Lagoon
Paladins Quest
Act Raiser
Act Raiser 2
Warlock
Prince of Persia
Soul Blazer
Super Ghouls and Ghosts
Skuljagger
Star Trek TNG
All RPGS had manuals as well as maps.
Needless to say I was blown away.
After finding these treasures a few thoughts came to mind.
1) What damn fool would trade in complete copies of these games to a Gamestop?!?
2) What damn fool Gamestop employee would THROW THE EMPTY BOXES AND MANUALS AWAY?!?
Anyways, I went inside hoping to find the games that went with the boxes and all I was able to find were Secret of Mana, Paladin's Quest and Secret of Evermore which I bought under the "Buy 2 get 1 Free" sale.
Needless to say I'm happy.
I'll post pictures if anyone wishes once I find out what's up with my ISPs ftp access.
