I have never seen this one pre-owned at GameStop but looks like you can still get it new for around $20 on Amazon.

I really should get on this, I enjoy arcade shooters like this when they come to home consoles.

I have this. Pretty cool, but I don't play it too often. A nice addition to your collection if you like SEGA lightgun games though.

I could see it holding onto its value. I actually purchased this off Amazon in 2011 for less than $12 NEW. It sells for more now on Amazon. I'd say grab it while you still can. I've noticed this trend for A LOT of games I picked up cheap on Wii in the past 1-2 years.

GameStop's buy two get one free sale is still going on, so I took another go.
I had to go to Los Angeles yesterday (400 miles away) to pick up something.
With the 1 hour I had free, I went to see what the local GS had.

3 more games added to my Wii collection.
Stumbling upon the rare Phantasy Star Portable 2 was a treat.
And I finally found The Warriors after searching for a while.

Really nice on those Phantasy Star portables. All mine have is the first one new for $20.

Ah, I didn't have nearly the good fortune you did. The Gamestop I went to had already been pretty picked clean. Most of what was left was disk only games :? I did manage to find a couple things, though.

And this made me really happy:

I went to GameStop today and picked up Battalion Wars 2, Excitebots: Trick Racing, and Walk It Out. Walk it Out if it's not on the list should be. It goes for around 40+ and used to be Around $10 which is what Gamestop is still selling it for.

I am however kicking myself for not picking up Kore Gang for $6.99.

I have seen Walk It Out in a few of my local GameStops...but I have passed on it each time. It just does not interest me, and I am skeptical as to how well it will hold its value.

In any event, I also picked the "Buy 2, Get 1" sale today, grabbing complete copies of Groovin' Blocks, Line Rider 2 Unbound, Luxor 3, Rhythm Heaven Fever, SafeCracker, Secret Files: Tunguska, and Sega Bass Fishing. I am not sure that any of these will skyrocket in value, but Line Rider was only $2 and can only go up from there!

Wow you guys got some neat stuff. My Gamestops had stuff I already have, or had been swept already.

There's always a few weeks from now I guess.
