    Oh it's a bootleg.

    It's using badly translated fansubs. The subtitles are hardcoded. The menu is one screen. It has seven random episodes instead of a full "arc". And the logo looks like it was blown up from a GIF. The region, as reported by the disc, is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 AND 8. (Not just 1 through 6 like many R0 DVDs.)

    Oh yeah, and it has Jimmy Neutron on the bottom right corner of the front cover.

    This is a printed disc, not a DVD-R, which is weird but... I think there's duplication factories down here and since Mexicans will turn a blind eye to anything as long as the money is right...

    3DO Soccer Kid and Battle Chess were $2 each at a Salvation Army. 3DS Finding Nemo was marked down to $7 from $14.99 and Xbox 360 Singularity was marked down to $3 from $6.99. Even the woman behind the counter was surprised. Both are unopened. On a related note, I think somehow Target has pumped more copies of Xbox 360 DJ Hero 2 to local Goodwills than were ever originally available in the store in the first place.

    it's obviously a rare collector's item. It makes sense that few would be able to afford such a luxury and he likely understands that.

    My Kmart still has those Goldeye bundles as well but I've been waiting for them to come down to something cheaper, especially since Reloaded just got marked down for 360 and PS3.

    Activision would not pay to extend their James Bond license, so all Bond-related games they released are now out of print. So you might not want to wait -too- long.

    Thanks. I was hoping it wasn't, because I'm helping an anime fan in Puerto Rico catalog anime with Spanish dubs and/or subtitles, and any new title is always exciting to find. But you win some, you lose some.

    Got a complete Crimson Gem Saga on its way from Gamestop. Always happy to not pay more than I should for a game.

    oh wow i dont have any fleas that dumb arround here, not much in the way of games but when they get them they are on ebay looking up prices right away.

    you should buy a bunch of cheapo mario, duck hunt, track meet, carts and see if they will trade for something good. i mean if SMB/DH is $30 rare then SMB/DH/TM carts must be rarer

    Seriously? I believe... Distrimax got the rights to some anime and sold it in two packs down here. I saw one set with SiN: The Movie. I almost bought it, but it doesn't seem to have Japanese audio. >

    Really all he has to do is sell one at that price to and he can be as patient as he wants with the others since he already made his money

    There seem to be quite a few titles on R1 DVD with Spanish dubs or subs on them - Ghost in the Shell: Special Edition from Manga, for example. Zima Entertainment released several boxsets of Studio Ghibli movies in Latin America on regions 1 & 4, with the original Japanese audio, and Spanish subtitles along with a Spanish dub. If you have any anime available in Spanish on a region 1 DVD, please let me know.

    I've mostly found Blurays, not DVDs. Depending on the store, they can be incredibly cheap ($4-10 USD) or incredibly expensive ($20-40 USD).

    There isn't anything like Amazon down here - you know, a store where you could browse everything that's available. Zima's website is pretty barren, too. I wish I could help out, but most of the stuff I see is just totally random. :\

    Monday:

    $1. The guy who sold this to me had no idea it had this many movies. It's mostly PD crap, but at a buck, why not.

    Edit: I forgot to mention that the movies in this set are encoded in a weird half-width resolution. My computer plays them fine but I haven't tried any on my PS2...

    Today:

    Cuatro Peliculas de Alfonso Zayas - $1
    Motocross Zombies From Hell - $1
    100,000 Watts (lots of music videos) - $1
    Champion Joe - $3

    I got those three first movies from the same place I got those Mexican DVDs in past weeks. Motocross Zombies had already been for sale, but I didn't pick it up, I think. The Alfonso Zayas collection... well, it's a bunch of bad comedies. Really bad. The main actor was pretty popular in the 70's (on TV) and 80's (in this genre) but these days he mostly does direct to video garbage. 100,000 Watts is interesting, it's an unauthorized DVD from Mexico with lots of music videos, including Michael Jackson's Bad. I haven't opened it yet. Motocross Zombies is an American (Latino) film, it just looks stupid so why not.

    ... Champion Joe was the REAL find. Look at it. The series has never received any official releases outside of Japan, and here I found this thing, published by a "legit" company, with security seals and all. That was $3, which is a bit more than I wanted to pay, but it's just so strange... I couldn't resist.

    Tai Seng is a distributor of martial arts films mostly... I guess since Ashita no Joe is about a form of fighting, it fit somehow? Obscure, yet legit North American anime DVD releases FTW.

    Most of the legitimately available Latin American anime DVDs seem to be on Amazon or MercadoLibre. And not cheap... Oh well, I tried.

    I tried watching Motocross Zombies one time. Don't remember much about it. My therapist says that is a good thing.

    Nice finds! Been trying to get Ninja 3 myself (for a reasonable price) for a looong time. Only time I've seen it, this skeevy guy operating out of Lynn/Cambridge wanted $35 for cart & manual. No wonder his shop was going out of business...
