Most of the rest is pretty cool, but I think you overpaid by about $4.35 on that guy.
:lol: i guess. 2 dollars is nothing and I'm interested in trying out that controller, looks fun.

Gamestop - Raiden IV case and manual - FREE. They didn't have the game so they just game me the case and manual for free.

Scoped out Big Lots today. Sadly, not much. I did get brand a new copy of Mass Effect 3 (Xbox 360) for $9.44 and New copy of Resident Evil 4 (Wii) for $6. I was hoping to find a copy of Kirby's Epic Yarn for $6 that someone else scored but sadly they were pretty much bottom of the barrel at the point.

This might be the worst controller, in terms of actual functionality (not counting gimmicky peripherals like the Power Glove, Rockin' Roller, etc.), I've ever used. I find it impossible to play with.

Had no plans of going out to look for games but a local collector I recently met let me know he found a Pokemon Emerald for $3 at a thrift store on my stomping grounds late in the afternoon so I figured there may still be stuff out there. I walked into Savers literally 2-3 minutes after he left. He sent me a text letting me know it was "bone dry" but I walked out with a nice stack of Gamecube titles for $3 each. I have no idea how he missed all that. Also got Super Mario 2 and Immortal for $5 each (I know Immortal is priced like $3 too high).

I tried my luck around town while running some other errands and picked up a Yobo Famiclone for $2 and Last Action Hero for $3 (which is probably $3 too high as well).

Jiminy Christmas! That is a great lot of games for $3 a piece. Were there any without manuals?

Twilight Princess alone would have made it worth it. I've never seen a GameCube copy before.

Sadly, the only ones with manuals are Rampage, Mario Party 7, the Matrix, and Rebel Assault. I really wish that Twilight Princess had the manual. I never though I'd run across that one at a thrift store. I already have a Mario Kart with the manual but without the bonus disc. Oh, I also have a complete Mario Golf but the disc is trashed so same deal with that one. I'll just combine those to call them complete. Still, at $3 each I'd be ungrateful to complain about manuals.

That is too bad. Still a great pick up for the price, but I would be annoyed by the ones missing manuals, personally. I'd gladly take a few off your hands for the price you payed, regardless. :mrgreen:
