Thanks! Heh you mention that ... I did find the game at a GS and it had the manual but the guy wouldnt let it go. I go back a few weeks later and the game is sitting there in a sleeve ... I asked about the box/manual and they said they tossed everything to make room. Sigh.

Hah!

I've bought games there before (w/o a manual), came in a week (or a month) later & saw one w/ a manual...and just told whoever was on the register that I bought it w/o the manual & that they *Owed* me one (even if I *didn't* actually buy *that* game w/o a manual...I'm sure that there was *some* games that they owed me manuals for:)...never fails to work  ;)

I'll keep my eye out for you...if I see one for sale in GS and it has a manual...one of my friends there is sure to let me have it  ;)

Ha, nooo!  I'm always so tempted to just take a manual or something when I see the used cases (or even the new ones!), but I also refuse to buy a game if it doesn't have the manual in it.

Thats cool looking. I really want to see your collection in person some day. It would be like visiting a Mega Man museum. My son would go crazy if he saw it. He loves the blue bomber.

I never knew so many Mega Man games existed before I saw your collection forte! I love how it all looks together.

Picked up a couple games today, I am not sure how well I did though:



Cost a buck each.

Just traded duplicate (and triplicate) copies of 2 $3.00 games (Obscure 2: The Aftermath (PS2-NA) and Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude (PS2-NA)) for *MINT* C.I.B. copies of:

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories (PS2-NA) and

Silent Hill 4: The Room (PS2-NA)...

...and I really feel like I came out ahead this time :)

Made a few purchases yesterday. 
Castelian (NES) - $4
Ski or Die (NES) - $5
Rocket: Robot on Wheels (N64) - $8
Ristar (Genesis) - $0  You read that right.  Ristar was FREE!

Picked it all up for 15 bones.  Math doesn't add up?  $4+$5+$8 doesn't equal $15?  Try this one $4+$5+$8+Cool Guy Discount!=$15  And I talked them into throwing in a little ole Genesis game.

That, sir, makes you an awesome father! One of these days I'm going to get shelving and set this stuff up proper.
