The stores around here are all pretty much cleared out of PSP games that are complete. Most of the stores don't even have shelf space dedicated to them. It's okay because I made my run of PSP games a few months ago and snagged so many for cheap. Now, I'm focusing on cheap PSP games on Amazon new/used which there are a ton of.
I believe I'm at 120 PSP games right now and I'm sure my average price paid is about $5-6. The PSP has a fabulous library for next to nothing right now!

modding a PSP is insanely easy now, i don't think you'll have to worry about bricking it. don't have to mess with Pandora batteries or chickHEN or whatever anymore. it's as easy as drag and drop onto the PSP/GAME directory and just go.

I suspect my local Gamestops will be the same way. (I haven't really looked, however.) That said, the pawn shops in town are still full of them, and they price many games as low - if not lower - than Gamestop. I also intend to keep this collection pretty limited (since I don't really have space for yet another collection

That's what I have read. I am looking forward to trying it out, and my micro-SD to memory stick adaptor cannot arrive soon enough!

Good thing...I'd really like to while i can grab some nice psp games to have(I'm still undecided on which psp model I should get I keep meaning to research it but I've been working on job applications and school(mostly school because I keep procrastinating the new-est job hunt even if it's with the same company))

Re: Video Game "Look what I found"
Yeah I've never played the first Zelda either. I'm going to play it tonight.
They had an NES there but it was just the console and the door was broken off and I knew I could have gotten it for $5 easily but it just wasn't worth the time repairing it. There was a lot of stuff there. This is like my 6th Sega Saturn.
I also have 5 SNES' now and 3 copies of Super Mario Kart.
The Saturn stuff was inside of a 90s TMNT carrying bag. It screamed 90s and inside was all sorts of demo discs and those two games along with a Game Boy Pocket box, too bad it wasn't in there. I've been looking for them lately.

Re: Video Game "Look what I found"
Well I have it on my wii but for some odd reason I just can't fully bring myself to play it since that is a system that's not physically in my room. I guess I'm still a little partial on some things that i would rather play on the original console...

It came with a charger, it is not too beat up (but it will be by the time I am done with it), and the disc drive works wonderfully. I will be getting a new battery for it, however, since the one in there comes loose easily (apparently, PSP 1001 batteries "swell" over time). I am looking forward to modding it, and I might pick up a new faceplate to make it look really good.
On a related note, I picked up a complete copy of Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy for $5; so, I am also looking forward to picking up some bargain PSP games...
Then you need to hit up gamestop while they still have psp games. I have never gotten any good deals on craigslist for psp games. No one seems to sell games separate from psps in KCMO. I recommend Half Minute Hero, metal slug xx, FF Crisis Core, and getting any ps1 rereleases that you missed out on or want portable versions of.
I actually started that with DS games because I've been at 6 DS games since last fall and I wanted some for cheap. So yesterday I managed to snag Planet Puzzle League and The Legend of Kage 2 for $2.99 each. Granted they're cart......er card only, but still, $2.99 for each one? Couldn't pass it up.
Now I just need to grab Contra 4 and Chrono Trigger while Gamestop still has them, somehow...

Re: Video Game "Look what I found"
Assassins creed 4 was on sale today only at best buy for $14, figured what the hell and picked it up. I enjoyed the second game but 3 never really caught my attention. The location and ship battles seemed really interesting to me in Black Flag
