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.

I saw a game store trying to sell Chrono Trigger for the SNES for about 149 cdn (which equates close to the same american these days). They might have dropped the price to 99 afterwards (to match their later Dragon Warrior IV) but unsure. I'm quite certain it's still in that store however.

 

I'm glad my brother in law gave me his copy for free one day since he didn't want it anymore. :)
