You do know in the current situation we're in right now, right?

This is par for the course. Hence, an easy guess, any year of the century.

What sucks is that this week alone I had sent out 3 different items to ship within days of each other and all 3 are delayed as we speak. A blu-ray movie my father ordered just got here today after days of delay. That said given the time of year and especially given the circumstances, it's understandable

So a second stimulus check is about to drop. I wonder what game collectors are gonna do with that shiny new check? Support local business, do some home improvement, pay down some loans? Nah... Expect game prices, particularly expensive title prices to once again skyrocket into unprecedented heights.

Not anymore, it's not. Trump vetoed it. He wants $2,000 given to us. Which sounds nice. But all that means is politicians will argue over it for months, again.

I just went to play the copy of Double Dragon for Master System I picked up yesterday, and After Burner comes on the screen instead.

Why would anyone want to swap the chip and sell it with a different board? wherever you purchased it from I'd return it

The stimulus check has been sent out already for $600 USD. if game prices sore I am not going to buy anymore games. I am happy with what I received, just imagine if you were a teenager that is still 17 and not old enough to receive anything. that would suck big time. I don't expect anymore freebies from the US government.

I'm gonna find out tomorrow after work.

It's weird. It's not like Double Dragon is an expensive game or anyrhing, so why did someone bother?

Seems like that's what'll happen. It makes little sense especially considering things seem to be more dire than when the first "stimulus" went out. Unemployment is going to run out for a lot of people, moratorium deadlines on evictions have passed and in some parts of the country this is NOT the time you want to be homeless. If $600 checks have started going out then any hope of a lift to $2K is pretty much dead in the water. All the while the GOP maintains tight controls of the purse strings and the FreeDums seem perfectly content to live under the boots of grifters.  :P

Checks have STARTED to be sent out. You may have gotten yours and that's good for you but not everyone has yet. I don't do direct deposit with the IRS so I know I'm on the back end of getting a payout because I opt for physical checks (that's how it went for the first one). As for the teenager thing, was any mention made for dependents? Would they get half the amount like last time? Also, this "stimulus" is NOT a freebie. It's OUR money...well, technically it's debt that our great, great, great grandchildren will be on the hook for at some point. But anyway, it's still amazing how generous they were to corporations (and churches) the first time around and the crazy amounts going to foreign aid this time around (Sudan, Egypt, Israel among others) but the best they can come up with for us is $600.  ::)
