Fzero GP Legend - Cart only - $5

Sadly I now notice that it is standard going rate. When buying it I for some reason thought it was Climax and thought I was getting it for a steal. Thats the last time I go buy games with a massive headache.

Stand strong, my brother. Don't give in to the peer pressure. It's not worth it.
agreed.
Everybody knows the Genesis is better anyway. Why, I bet even Mario plays one.

Wii Epic Mickey 2 - $29.99 $7.99
Best Buy Deal Of The Day


EDIT

Okay now that I got this posted to get the word out, the story. I try to make it a habit every day to click the the Deal Of The Day at the Best Buy site. I prefer shopping at Frys for new games, but once in a while Best Buy has a killer one day only deal. For some reason the Deal of the Day now required Java Slow Script which I normally leave off for quicker page loads. Curious, I temporarily turned it on, discovered they have a pile of stuff advertised for daily and week long sales.

Best Buy Epic Mickey 2 - http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Disney+Epic ... Y9FMdNFzN7


The Used copies are $29.99, gee which is a better bargain? One local store was in stock and the other had a five day pickup window. Not sure if Mickey 2 is a one day special so I beelined down to the store and got there just right before they opened. All the new copies were pulled to the back in case anyone online reserved it. Luckily the employee knew where they were so snagged me a copy.

I remember seeing Epic Mickey and the Paint Brush controller but never bothered buying the 1st or 2nd volume. Epic Mickey 2 even has an additional controller called PDP Clicker indicating the investment of a good game? I kept the sales receipt and now researching if the game is worth keeping. Maybe plays like Drawn to Life? Most of the customers on Amazon gave it high marks. If I break the seal and not refund it, I'll include it with my next group photo of finds.

Funny how the 1st Epic Mickey only got a Wii showing. I guess this game really needs some sort of pointer brush; the 360 Kinnect and the PS3 Move?

Isn't Climax Japan only? Can't imagine they would title it the same in the us since it sounds so sexual.

It is, but I come across imports randomly at fleamarkets. That booth had a couple Super Famicom games for outrageous prices.

Thanks for the info! I knew of the two US releases, will have to watch out Climax as well.

Sooo, what, is it not appropriate to orgasm while playing that game?

That's hilarious considering often times I buy Japanese versions of games because they're cheaper.
