Title: Right on Blockbuster
Post by: NPYYZ on April 15, 2002, 05:52:22 PM
The local Blockbuster Video stroe here is selling used PS2, PS1, N64, and Dreamcast games at very low prices. I don\'t know if this is a nation wide thing, but it might be wise to look into it before buying new.

They\'re doing a deal where if you buy 2, you get a third free. But they never have anything I want. All sold out.:(

Yeah, they\'re doing that nationwide. The one in Warsaw is selling PS2 games for 30-40 bucks, N64 and PSX games for 15-20 bucks, and DC games for 5-15 bucks.

I picked up ESPN Track and Field and AeroWings2 for like 10 bucks a couplla weeks ago. Traded em both in for a VMU and Seventh Cross Evolution. :rolleyes: The VMU was a good deal, but SCE is one of the sloppyest games I\'ve ever played.

At the store where I work (not a Blockbuster) they had a few weeks where they sold some N64 games for 5 bucks a pop.  I got ECW Hardcore Revolution, Fighter\'s Destiny 2, ... and two other games that apparently aren\'t worth remembering, heh.

But I had fun with the first two, so it was cool.  The only N64 game I\'d buy now is Conker, but I already have it so may my N64 RIP. :)

Yeah, and those are some damned expencive lil batteries too. I\'d end up spending more money keeping all my VMU\'s feed than I did on my GameGear if I actually would buy them. Here\'s a tip tho, unplug your DC controller from the unit when yer not using it. I haven\'t tested it out myself, but the doods over at SegaWeb say it can extend batterylife by double or by 1/2 depending on how often you use it.

BTW: Does anyone have a PocketStation to compair to the VMU? There\'d be a refreshing topic for Console Debating.
