Just got a limited first run copy of Shin Megami Tensei IV! Pretty excited. Just to confirm, there's not manual with the game correct?

Yup, no manual is perfectly normal. I went to the internet too to confirm haha, especially since the wrapping looked like it was resealed (I'm not a pro yet on identifying resealed boxes). I thought someone had bought it to use the Club Nintendo code (it was during the SMT+Fire Emblem promo for a $30 e-shop card), but in the end it really was brand new.

I figured afterwards that they might have omitted the manual since there's the guidebook included.

I checked too lol. I read about the seal job. Seems weird it wasn't y fold sealed. This one was used (not sealed) so I don't have a code redemption card, so most likely they redeemed the code. No biggie for me. I got it for 31 dollars lol.

Yeah, it was heat-sealed, and nowadays that seems to happen 99% of the time when they're resealed, not when leaving the factories. That's weird, but eh.

So my heart got broken the other day when I was at the Good will.

So I went to the DVD section and grabbed Halo 2 complete great condition for the Xbox.  I did not have any Halo game so I was happy.  It was 6 bucks.

However, when I walked to the register to check out, I  noticed the cashier had the following gamecube games behind the counter:  Super mario sunshine, Mario Party, Luigi Mansion, Zelda Windwaker, some baseball game, STar Fox Adventures and Paper Mario.  I asked her if I could get them but she said some one already got them he just went home to grab his wallet and come back.  So the man eventually came back in as I was in line and he paid 15 bucks for all those gamecube games.  All those were on my wish list and I was heart broken and I was going to cry when I walked about the store   

If I only I came to the Good will 30 minutes earlier.

Wow, that guy got such a deal  Game hunting is often a matter of timing. I had an awesome 1 foot high, talking with lights, Megaman figure snatched right in front of me by a reseller at the flea market last summer. It wasn't in perfect condition, but it was still awesome-looking. The reseller's been trying to sell it even since, for $50. Fifty freaking bucks.

Nice trade on the Dracula X!

You know, I've been feeling the urge to play this one again soon. I might have to knock it out this weekend before Pathfinder.

If the trade makes you happy, then cool. I'm not sure I'd feel I got the good end of that deal, if it were me, though.

Just picked up the (sealed) LE for Killer is Dead (for the PS3).

I was shocked that one of my 2 local GS stores:

a). actually *had* one,

b). hadn't 'gutted' it & that the whole thing was still sealed & minty, and

c). I was pleasantly surprised when/that it wrung-up @ $19.99 (because, I thought that the price on the shelf said $39.99)
