That is the worst one in the city. All of the other ones on South Blvd. have better selections. (One has an amazing selection, but its prices are abysmal...) The ones on Central, Freedom, North Tryon, and Wilkinson are also pretty good. They do not have the selections they used to, but you can still find games there (and they will stock a lot more of them around the holidays).

Problem is I'm not a big fan of going into charlotte especially that deep with how tight gas still feels sometimes would be nice if I could somehow get a job in charlotte closer(even if I hate half the people who drive there since I don't like bumper to bumper traffic)

AES get (and OutZone too)

OutZone music is just boss. I'd heard this and having played other Toaplan stuff i'd suspect it as well - but dang...it is amazing. Game is tough. In addition to tight corridors (you're constantly blocked by solid objects, or holes in the land) you also have an energy meter that if you don't replenish - you die, so each run basically feels like a speedrun. By third run I was starting to get it:

For $3.00 I found a rare PS2 Controller, no rumble on it! When I picked it up, it seemed lighter than usual. It had no "dual shock 2" logo anywhere on it. I had found the harder to get non-rumble controller! SCORE!

Since I went early his prices were a little high (good prices anyways but I'm a cheap-ass) $15 got me Legacy of Kain Defiance XBOX, Armed and Dangerous XBOX, Crayon Shin chan 3 JPN gameboy and Crazy taxi GBA. As I was rushing to get to my car I spied the sellers piles of stuff, There were three or four sega genesis and lots of controllers amid the various electronics the guy had. I wanted to stay but I couldn't. Work was a-calling!

So at 2:45 when I got there I spied, in the last bits of stuff that he had there, Two segas left! By now the guy was selling his leftover stuffs at $5.00 a bag. I quickly jumped on it and picked up lots of goodies. I filled that bag to the brim with random junk but for the sake of the picture I just posted the gaming stuffs. Two sega genesis, One high definition and one model 2, Plus, the rest you see there! I couldn't fit it into the bag, but the guy sold me that nice camera tripod for $2.00!

This time I got more stuff even cheaper! $1.00 the bagfull! I just couldn't say no! I have yet another guitar and a beat up but hopefully working ps2 Taiko Drum Master pad and the rest of the random stuff in that pic.
WOW! You definitely scored, really great prices, even see a High Def Genesis there with the better sound chip. I have been keeping an eye for that rare PS2 controller myself, every black controller I spot has the blue lettered Dual Shock on them.

Can't praise enough about the Xbox Armed Dangerous game. Very addicting gameplay, and funny video between each level. Cheat codes are interesting too. :D

They released a new Genesis just to give out a better sound?

No. Sega manufactured many different variations of the Genesis. Some have better sound quality than others.

Yeah, there are tons of revisions and they're not created equal. Generally speaking the early model 1 consoles with "High Definition Graphics" written on them are the best US NTSC models for sound.

It also helps you can get stereo out of the headphone jack.
