Try to find the DS version as well. It has the D&D games. Actually I think the Coleco plug n play may have those as well.

EDIT: Man, I just checked eBay, that's going up fast! It was worth around $50 or so when I snagged it.


I think the Jetson's cart is like $140.

I snagged the Earthbound cart for about $130.

And Ninja Gaiden Trilogy was like $175 and the label/cart was in pretty bad shape.

The mall/chain stores have better inventory, but will charge a bit more. The independent stores are more reasonable, but their selection is hit and miss. Besides the first party games, GameCube games are still really cheap. Like most of the third party and multiplatform titles are still very inexpensive.

I use Amazon when I want something like Mega Man V. Instead of waiting around and going to each store all the time, I just go there and buy it. Plus, I'm at the point where I only want one game and I know exactly what I want. My friend and I still go game shopping pretty consistently, so I'll pick up the odd thing here and there along with helping him buy games.

We used to have a ton more, but GameStop ate up a bunch of them and they eventually just closed up. I'll set foot in GameStop once a year, but I don't own a console they sell for at the moment. We have still a good selection, but it's not like the glory days where we had 3 stores like 10 minutes apart from one another.

Oof. That's pricey. I was about to say that for Earthbound, too, and it'd be true, but that's actually quite a bit under the going eBay price! Good grief! (My copy doesn't look splendid, but I picked it up for $5 in a pawn shop years ago. Boy, that was a lucky break!)

It would be nice if you could "combine shipping" on amazon with private sellers.

That honestly sounds too easy for them to ever actually do it :lol:

For a grand total of $60 I picked up:

1.) Red gba sp(came with a weird multi-nintendo charger)
2.) Game and watch(had box and game but missing manual)(GB)
3.) Scooby doo(snes)
3.) Gamester grip for the sp(was in a dollar bin and he threw it in for free)
4.)Toy story(snes)
5.)One Piece Grand Battle(GCN)(one OP game down about a bizillion more to go :lol: )

Now I think I need to shift my focus to mostly gb, ds, and ps1...those hurt to look at with size. Ps1 lots just have way to many doubles though for it to be worth it especially because it's usually doubles that aren't worth selling
