    Default Selected $4.88 Plug & Play systems at Wal-Mart...

    I found the Colecovision, Frogger, Star Wars: General Grievous, and WWE plug & play systems at two different Wal-Marts, so I know this isn't a YMMV situation. The wireless version of the Ms. Pac-Man is also $4.88 if you can find it. Good luck...
    Currently catching up on PSN, WiiWare, Wii U E-Shop and Xbox Live Arcade exclusives I missed.

    Sounds pretty cool, but it's probably a YMMV thing. I'll have to check next time I go to Wally World.

    Exactly, same here, about 3 Targets and a Sam's Club.

    Bah damnit, I've been there twice today and forgot to look both times x_x

    Luckily I have to go pick up one of those "poppin bites" Pizza Hut pizzas tonight for food, so I'll try it again... Hopefully 3rd times a charm

    Well I looked on the 3rd trip to Wal-Mart and the only 4$ one that I found was a single Dragonball Z plug and play. I was hoping to get a frogger or Ms. Pac-Man. I ended up leaving it there...

    I did see a Mortal Kombat and a Sonic plug and play, but they were both red tagged from $21.00, to $17.00, then down to $15.00... Maybe next drop will be down to $10

    I never understood the draw of these things. Even for $4, just get the ROMs, buy a good pc controller and get better video quality. eh

    Sitting in front of your monitor.

    At $5, they are an awesome deal. And as a 1 step solution, are far simpler than the solution you offered.

    It's a shame we usually don't get similar clearance sales north of the border. Though I did manage to get the Coleco Head-to-Head system this week for $8 (had been previously marked down on 2 occasions).

    I went there looking for Frogger (even though its crap), but nope. I did find and buy Outrun 2019 for $10.00 however. Great wheel controller!!!

    Anyone know if the Genesis ones have been marked down? I'm specifically looking for the Arcade Legends 2 and SFII ones.

    My mon was nice enough to stop in Wal-Marts today, and they only had two, but it still has a good deal. I got Frogger and Star Wars Yoda.

    The Star Wars one says limited edition Yoda on it. What's up with this?

    I wonder how long it will take for Target to mark down their new "full size" (not really) Midway cabs.

    The draw to these for me is convenience.....I can take one or seveal of these into any room and play them/thus I have more then one of each to leave in certain rooms.
    When I go over in relatives houses/trips etc..I can take one or two of these with me..

    Covenience:
    I just put a 13 inch TV in my Bathroon to hook these up to,.

    Makes for a good time on the shitter...
