Not really a great day for me as far as thrift shopping, but I did take advantage of the Best Buy sale and Buy 2 get 1 free at Gamestop:

What b2g1?   

Best Buy had a Buy 2 get 1 Free that ended on the 26th for select 3DS Titles.  The games were Pokemon X and Y, Zelda, a Kirby game and Tomadatchi Life.  I checked 3 Best Buys and almost all were out of most of those games except for the Pokemon games so I grabbed them.  You didnt know about the sale?

Nono, you're talking about the b1g1 at Best Buy, I knew about that.  I'm talking about the b2g1 you mentioned at Gamestop.  I know they've been printing out b2g1 coupons on receipts, but those aren't good until next week - is there another GS sale running I don't know about?

Oh sorry.  I dont think its all Gamestop stores because the one down the street from me didnt have it, but I went to a different store about 1 hour away and they happened to have Wii games buy 2 get 1 free.  Wii and DS games only.

My recent pick ups.

• Galaxy Force II and Shining Force for Genesis
  WCW vs. The World for PS1
  Clay Fighter 63 1/3 for N64
  Street Fighter III Double Impact for Dreamcast

Nice finds. That WCW vs. The World sucks balls. My friend bought back when it was new. We were huge wrestling fans back then and were tickled to get a sweet WCW game. It was pretty bad. The Giant / Paul White has this massive Afro. It's funny and awful at the same time.

Now that Street Fighter III, it's one of the last Dreamcast games I'm looking for.

Yeah, WCW vs. is not that great of a game. At least it was $6.
I used to have SFIII 3rd Strike for DC but foolishly traded it in because I got the XBox(used to anyway) and PS2 versions. Oh well, it was recently re-released for XBox 360 and PS3 not to long ago.
Shining Force is another one I foolishly traded as well in the past. Had to bite the bullet for that copy...but I'm glad to have it once again.

Sweet plushie Scott!

And no mention of Galaxy Force II? Criminally underrated game. It's part of that Space Harrier-clone genre, whatever the heck it's called. But it's better than Space Harrier, IMO. It has a more sci-fi theme to it all, and as a result the levels and enemies are a lot more interesting. And it has a cool soundtrack.

He IS holding a butcher's knife. It's just crotcheted, too.

I'm seeing the Lantern -but- not so much on the butcher's knife

The knife is in his right hand tho (his right, not our right). It's kinda hard to see without looking for it.

Played it for the first time after bringing it home and yeah it's fun. Reminds me more of After Burner but in space.
Trying to beef up my Genesis collection right now.

As for CF 631/3, Now I have the CF trilogy complete. Unless I try to get CF:Sculptors cut, but that one is really expensive!

Ya he's holding the knife in his right hand. Admittedly, it's a bad picture too. My phone's camera has been being a piece of shit lately.

Finally found a nice (and cheap) CIB copy of this PS2 gem. Gonna load it up after dinner.
