I'm closin' in on my *500* collection items...honestly, though...if I wasn't being such a lazy-ass, procrastinator :)

...I'd just add some of my hundreds of guides, ost's, and swag  :o

Meh, I've got enough games pre-ordered to get me there, so I'll just wait for them to come out  ;)

I'm one game away from having all the Mega Man PS1 releases (need the disc for X4 GH, I have an empty case and manual), which will turn my variants attention to PS2 and GCN versions of Mega Man Anniversary Collection

EDIT: Well posting in this thread was good luck, just got this:

Onward and upward!

That's crazy that GS is having it for that cheap.  Great price for CIB! Nice find!

Yeah, I did a double-take when I saw the pricing on it :P

Also, I'm pretty damned familiar w/ my local Gamestop's stock of DS, PSP, GC, PS2, and PS3 games...and while I was ringing-up this sale, I even remarked to my friend who was working the register that I'd never seen this game here before (or ever expected to:)

He said it just came in the day before (can only imagine what they paid the poor person selling the game to them...probably...what...around 50 cents - Damned Thieves)...and had he seen it before I did...that, well...I never *would* have ever seen it  :o

...At least he didn't try to pull one of the 'trademarked' "Gamestop-Moves" of...
"Oh, I'm sorry sir...seems like we actually don't really have this one after all"
 >:(

I've seen it done before w/ good, rare, and valuable games when customers try to ring them up :(

Also, as a side-note:

I've seen a PSP game ("GS-New" (w/ just the adhesive sticker on it to show that it's "new"))

called "Hakuoki"...or something like that.

For (at least) the last month or 2, it's been sitting there w/ a $39.99 price tag on it...never heard of it XD!

Anyone know anything about it (as in great game, rare, valuable, small print-run, etc)?!

Just curious!

Thanks :)

Oh yeah...I forgot to say that:

$3.00 price-tag next to the name "ATLUS" = a no-brainer, even if I've *never* heard of it  ;)

Heh, I've played the other Summon Night games for the GBA, and they're good.  I have the DS one but haven't cracked it yet.

called "Hakuoki"...or something like that.

Hm, Metacritic says it's good.  Is it the LE or regular version?  Also, it being an Aksys game... I'd be tempted to get it just for collecting's sake.  Glancing at the reviews, just some info:
- NA release of a multi-platform series
- an anime based on the game series was made
- otome (geared towards female gamers) with "choose your adventure" sort of gameplay

Thank you, Descietas.

I looked into it a (very) little bit...and then had to look-up wth "otome" is/was :)

The game in question is the boxed-LE.

Just seemed like a pretty high price for a PSP game to be holding onto like that...

Hm, yeah, cheaper on Amazon, anyway, and it'd still be sealed! http://www.amazon.com/Hakuoki-Fleeting-Blossom-Limited-Sony-PSP/dp/B005T3GSCM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1342556582&sr=8-2&keywords=hakuoki

Those Amazon listings always make me laugh (when it's cheaper new than it is used)  :o

Was adding in my Atari Lynx games and realized I past the 3000 item mark. Guess I better get started on scanning those carts now.  ;D

Now where is my 3000 item badge!  :D :D
