for the future is there some kind of resource on the net for rarity rankings of old games? I know about the holy grails of nes stuff like bubble bath babes and the Myriad 6 in 1, but what about the middle ground stuff?
This site is very helpful. I think the person that runs it is a member of these boards.
I definitely would have bought a lot of that stuff too, even if it was for the going rate. It's always exciting to find stuff in the wild!
yeah- it became a very risk central day. The only thing i don't like about risk is that its hard to find a handful of people who want to spend a whole day playing a board game.
i think castle risk is just a slight variation on the game that only includes Europe.
I hate thrift stores. I had to do service hours for my school at the local salvation army. There was a guy who came in and off loaded a bunch of boxed SNES games, the best of which were Super Metroid, Super Mario World 1 and 2, and Legend of Zelda Link to the Past. I saw the whole pile from the back of the store and started to walk over, when this huge cow of a woman sees me and the games and RUNS across the store to get there first. She grabbed all the games in site and took them to the counter. She bought all of them, and she was so hasty I think she crushed the box to LoZ. I picked through the area where the pile was and found three bad games and bought them.

Rough. I can assure you that i've never, nor will i ever run in a thrift store for something. If you see it first man- shes all yours. There are other games and other opertunities after all.
I guess its the same mentality as people who sprint through stores on black friday. I don't understand at what point people decided that they are abandoning their dignity and fighting over stuff.
Yeah that sucks, Apprentice. A rule of thumb at thrift shops should be, whoever sees it first, gets first dibs. Problem is, there are plenty of jerks who feel they're divinely entitled to everything out there. Heck, if i saw that box at the same time as someone, I'd negotiate with them and divvy up the games fairly.
