I hate you at the moment.
If you're looking to get rid of one of those BBA's for just the 99 cents plus shipping drop me a line!

Welcome to how I got my third wavebird.

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.

Heh, I guess it pays to be thrifty right?
Now to find some working WaveBirds with shotty looking (But otherwise perfect) sticks that I can get for cheap.....

I went to pick up a little tripod for my camera after work and stopped by the nearby Gamestop for S&Gs. I didn't see any used GC stuff at all. I was expecting some controllers at least for Wii use, but nothing.

A few GS's manager's are now just plainly refusing to take any trades on GCN at all, is it underhanded and against company policy? Yes. Can you get that store in trouble and have their district manager breathe fire down their asses until they restore their GCN section and begin accepting GCN trades again? Yes.

it's also stupid. Considering the Wii's backwards compatability, it seems like having GC games and controllers in stock is a no-brainer.

I don't think the average consumer is still playing gamecube games. At least not enough play to the point of keeping things in stock. Sad.
I always check to see if i can get a game with mario in it cheap yet. I don't understand the memtality of not stocking cube stuff, but keeping resident evil 3 at 30 bucks.

it is sad.
What's really sad is that you can mention that Gamecube games are compatible every time I sell a Wii or people buy a Wii game that's a sequel to a Gamecube game and people look at me like I'm unlocking the mysteries of the universe.
Honestly we've got little hanging signs on every other shelf in both the Gamecube and Wii sections, why can't people notice this shit!?
