What I did the two days I was gone
Well, Friday I didn't do much of anything except work on Tic-Tac-Toe. On Saturday, I went to Game Crazy Lancaster, and was contemplating whether I should buy some Atari 2600 games I have but with better labels (I didn't.) Then, my niece spent the night (I was asleep most of that time, though. I went to sleep at 5pm and woke up at 5am.) Then, I went to Game Crazy South today, and they had horribly overpriced NES games. Elevator Action for $12. Hatris for $8. Ms. Pac-Man (Tengen) for $22. What idiot that would go to a used video game store would spend that kind of money for games that would easily cost around $3 anywhere else? I would like Wario's Woods for NES, though. And since I'd never seen it, I'd pay around $10 for it, but geez. And get this: Chrono Trigger for the SNES = $70! It was probably less expensive new! So I bought Rolling Thunder and Vindicators for the NES and it was only $11. I have a Vindicators, but there was a stupid mom & pop rental sticker on it and I couldn't get it off. So now I have a clean one. I think I'm going to sell off most of my NES collection once the street to the post office opens back up, though. I don't play them much anymore. Sure, I'll keep SMB1, 2, & 3, Tetris, etc., but most of it will be used to trade for Atari 2600 games. I was keeping them because there weren't any that I wanted to get rid of, but then I asked myself "How often do I play Millipede for the NES?" The answer is almost never. So come October, hopefully I'll get more 2600 games and less NES games.
