That's great that they have them priced appropriately and in the system with a funny link item description.

Re: Games Acquired 2013
I've noticed the original Crash and Spyro games go for a fair bit now, ~$15+. Not bad but maybe I can track them down cheaper at some stores around here.

Re: Games Acquired 2013
I added a little more to my Wii collection by acquiring:
1. HotD 2/3 - owned this way back so this is a repurchase
2. Godzilla Unleashed - getting harder to find so I wanted to snag it while I can at the price that I paid.
3. Bit.trip Complete - Enough said
I also snagged some more PS3 games and got the Prof Layton games on the cheap to complete the missing games in my collection.

Funny that you noticed that as well. I recently completed Crash Team Racing and I wanted to get the original Crash Bandicoot. Long story short, I was also surprised by how much the original Crash is going for especially black label.Xeogred wrote:I've noticed the original Crash and Spyro games go for a fair bit now, ~$15+.

Re: Games Acquired 2013
Between the complete phasing out of PSP games I noticed happening at several stores, and the discovery of a couple GameStops near me having unadvertised buy 2 get 1 free deals on PSP games, I decided to pick up some RPGs for the system.

^ Good choices, I have 5 of the 10 games you listed.
And Ys is my favorite video game series of all time.

Re: Games Acquired 2013
Thanks! Ys Seven was the first game in the series I tried. Played through it a couple months ago and was hooked start to finish. I also plan on grabbing The Oath in Felghana and The Ark of Napishtim when I have another spending opportunity.BoneSnapDeez wrote:^ Good choices, I have 5 of the 10 games you listed.

Re: Games Acquired 2013
I dropped about $19 this afternoon on my way back to the office from a dentist's appointment. These $2 2600 and Wii games are really helping me with my goal of acquiring as many games as possible for as little money as possible...

Re: Games Acquired 2013
I snagged Max Payne 3 for PC today on a whim. Now that it's 2013, I may as well start experiencing 2012 in gaming.

Previous Games
11. N.O.V.A. - PSMini
12. Dungeon Hunter Alliance - PS3 Digital
13. Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower - PSP
14. Lumines: Puzzle Fusion - PSP
15. Street Fighter Zero 2 - SAT JPN Import
16. Shin Megami Tensei 2 (loose cart) - Super Famicom
17. Pro Action Replay 4 in 1 for Saturn
Grabbed a N.O.V.A. and Dungeon Hunter Alliance for a buck each thanks to the PSN deals thread. N.O.V.A. is quite fun on Vita, especially since you can change the control so that you can aim with the right analog stick instead of face buttons. Pretty good little FPS for a dollar. Haven't tried Dungeon Hunter but it looks like it might be really fun for local multiplayer.
Both Darkstalkers Chronicle and Lumines were in decent condition, in their cases, and on clearance for 2 dollars each. Since everywhere seems to be phasing out PSP rather quickly I've been watching for bargains like this on anything I find interesting. The more I look at PSP game lately, the more I've been realizing there are a lot of games on the PSP I might regret not getting for cheap while the opportunity exists.
I ordered Shin Megami Tensei 2 and it arrived in the mail a couple days ago. My Super Famicom game collection now consists of the loose games Popful Mail, Fire Emblem, and Shin Megami Tensei 2.
Lastly, I picked up a copy of Street Fighter Zero 2 CIB locally for cheap, and it got me thinking that I should just order the Action Replay. I've had a Saturn for about three years now and the price of games has kept me from getting almost anything for the system. After looking at the price of imports, I decided to order the Action Replay, which hopefully shipped today, and start importing some good Saturn games.

Doh! I didn't think to try this! I played through it using the face buttons anyway, and still quite enjoyed it!Czernobog wrote: Grabbed a N.O.V.A. and Dungeon Hunter Alliance for a buck each thanks to the PSN deals thread.
