Friday the 13th has been a lucky one for me.

Went to gamestop to see if they had any new amiibo or got extra of the limited edition new 3ds. But while I was waiting for them to open I was checking CAG and was able to order a Majora's Mask n3ds from Target and its already shipped 8)

While at GS I got Horse Life Adventures for Wii (game is kind of rare, prob not good but oh well)

Then I hit up the local family video where my neighbor works and she was there. I got Spiderman 2 for XB1 for $13. She asks if there was any games I was looking for that weren't marked and of course I said Metroid Prime Trilogy. She checked the computer and asked the manager on duty and they sold it to me for $10 btw its the tin case :wink: :wink:

I did miss the MM limited with skull kid on amazon, but oh well can't win them all

Haha. Same here, only I didn't get a ship notification yet. I'm glad I checked the 3DS thread over there. So now I've got x2 MM 3DS en route and a MH4U one. :lol: One of my younger brothers is a Zelda fanatic, and he (like most) missed the pre-order window from Gamestop. He'll be ecstatic now.

Monday is too far away.

They did among other game stores but I believe they kept those older stores open under their original name. My theory is that it might have been if they didn't have any of their stores in the area. Running two stores till people got aquainted with the "Game Stop" name versus their old game store. They had a "Software Etc." open in my area till only a year or two ago.

I'm jealous, mas. Good find. I never find any TG16 stuff in the wild for any price, let alone a great deal like that.

Guys I have never seen one in the wild unless at a retro store. Just tested it and took a minute to work but it works fine. Now who has tg16 games they want to sell lol. And what's the best way to clean a tg16.

As hard as it is to find games and the price they demand, this is pne system I wold strongly recommend the flash card for. I think Stoneage gamer has them. They were only like 70 bucks.
