You monster!

But to be honest, TimeStalkers isn't exactly what I'd call a roguelike. That aside, it's an especially neat game for fans of Climax Entertainment's games, but it does suffer from many glaring flaws.

Wow! That is a great deal!

Gamestop is doing a B2G1 on used Wii and DS games now, and I meant to stop by before work. I forgot that Gamestop does not open until 10, however, and did not make it. Rather, I stopped by the Goodwill Computer store and picked up:

Scorcher (SATURN; CIB) - $6
Skeleton Warriors (SATURN; CIB) - $16
WWF Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game (SNES) - $2
Magical Quest Starring Mickey & Minnie (GBA) - $3
Disney Princess (GBA) - $2

I also picked up 10 GB dust covers for $3. I think those suit me better than any of the new-fangled Wii games I might have picked up at Gamestop!

it's a carolinas thing, i think. they aren't here either. there are goodwill warehouses, though, where everything is just thrown into bins and you get to dig through it and buy by the pound. sometimes that can be real fun.

I have one of these goodwill warehouses near me, went in once and saw the kind of people digging through, and the total chaos that was in there, and decided to never return.

There's one here in Houston and one in Austin too. They're both small, but sometimes fine some game stuff there and they're great if you need a cheap audio or PC cable.
