I got Ikaruga for the GameCube for $17.

I'm sure someone out there has found it for a lower price, but this was a big find for me. I have been hunting for this game for years and I wasn't going to spend over $20. I first played it about 6 or 7 years ago at a friends apartment. We didn't have a lot of time and I only played about 10 minutes of it. In that short time, I fell in love with the polarity shooting mechanic. I did not have a GameCube at the time, or the money to buy one. I considered it though, just for that game. Eventually, I bought a GameCube, but Ikaruga was a scarce title and whenever I did see it, it was more than I wanted to pay. So finally, years later, I finally have it and I'm very happy with it! It's every bit as good as I remember. I think this is the longest I have ever waited to purchase a game that was so high on my wishlist.

I found a basement called "Ninja MIB (and free popcorn)" that sells games.
I bought 5 gba games for 5 bucks (common crap like scooby doo), walked 2 stores down the street, and sold them for $10 :)
I should have bought the rest of the damn store.

Just won some eBay Auctions:
1. Sega Nomad w/ AC adapter, Controller and battery pack for 50$. Everything is tested and working except the battery. They say they didn't test it but I'm not dumb enough to think it'll hold a charge :wink:

2. Battletoads & Double Dragon, Sonic 1, Power Rangers the Movie, Insector X and Chiki Chiki Boys. All for Genesis. All with boxes and manuals for 45$.

3. Cannon Spike for DC with case and manual for 40$.

I can't wait for all of it to arrive!

I paid 14.99 for my copy of cannon spike at PlaynTrade and $35 for my boxed Nomad. If you have one near you check them out.

Oh I envy you, friend. I have never seen Cannon Spike at any of my local stores so I just assumed I was going to pay 35+ no matter what!

Havn't played any other one, Shadow and Ico I'm pretty excited about playing after all the hype I've heard of them.
