Had a "prfsnl_gmr-inspired" shopping trip today.
Got Obscure: The Aftermath, Super Swing Golf, and Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers for like 5 bucks total.
Also, there's a really cute girl working there now. Think I might stop by more often.

Nice! Those are some very solid titles for an obscenely low price.BoneSnapDeez wrote:Had a "prfsnl_gmr-inspired" shopping trip today.

I'm pleased. I misspoke a bit though - I actually got Super Swing Golf: Season 2.
I may pick some more Wii games in a couple of weeks.

I have several "buy two games under $20, get a third game free" coupons, but I have realized that no Gamestop location in Charlotte has three games under $20 that I need for my collection. I wonder how that happened...

Same, but replace Charlotte with Durham.prfsnl_gmr wrote:I have several "buy two games under $20, get a third game free" coupons, but I have realized that no Gamestop location in Charlotte has three games under $20 that I need for my collection. I wonder how that happened...
We should meet halfway in like High Point and clean 'em out.

Re: Is Gamestop Evil? The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
Good: Link's Crossbow Training is only 44¢.
Bad: The game isn't granted any valuable shelf space. You have to ask the clerk to get it out of the drawer for you.
Ugly:
When I went into gameplop, I told the clerk I wanted Link's Crossbow Training. He and the other two employees asked me why I would even want to play that crappy game. They all tried to dissuade me from buying it.
I answered, "because I like arcade-style lightgun shooters, and I like Legend of Zelda". I thought that was sufficient explanation, but apparently not. I had to listen to all the reasons why the clerk, and his trainer, and their manager were all sure I would hate this game. In retrospect I shouldn't have answered at all; I should have just told them to ring me up already.
But then someone came in to trade in his 360. All three gameplop employees worked on the 360 trade in while I stood there waiting with forty-four cents in my hand. When the clerk finally deigned to sell me the game I came in for, he made sure to ask if I wanted to pre-order Hyrule Warriors.
No thanks.
