Had a pretty nice haul today with most of it I'm gonna keep aside from Skylanders Giants and Oddworld.  Was surprised I found stuff for once at Goodwill as I had pretty much given up there lol The games all came from two Goodwills and the strategy guides were from my usual thrift shop.  Never played the Pac-Man World games, but I do like 3D platformers :D

Swung by Gamestop today to pickup one of those Shin Megami Tensei IV CE's for $20.  Also grabbed some really cheap games while I was there:

"When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed
if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I
became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the
desire to be very grown up.” ― C.S. Lewis

WHA?
Anyone in the US willing/able to pick one of these up for me?
I'm not even picky if it's Gamestop "New"

I'm really happy when I can find some good Nintendo strategy guides.  I keep a lookout for others also, but I really like collecting these ones in particular.  Best ones I've found so far at this thrift shop.

I have Pac-Man World 2 on GameCube and it is one of the most fun 3D platformers I have ever played.  I might be a bit biased though as I am a big Pac-Man fan.  Getting a 100% with time trials on the game is ridiculously difficult though, never did finish my 100% run.

Edit:
Forgot to add that I received Wizardry IV for the PC from Foxhack today.  Now my Apple II copy has a buddy.  Look how happy they are together!

Picked up:

Renegade CIB
Super Street Fighter II

$21 total after tax and store credit.

Not at all biased. I'm not a big fan of classic Pac-Man, because I'm not a fan of that classic arcade style of gameplay in general.

Yet I had a freaking blast with Pac-Man World 2! A great, overlooked 3D platformer. It has collecting, but it also has a focus on actual "platforming" as the game progresses as well, which I loved! I hate how so many 3D platformers have become collect-a-thons and this was more than that.

Then the last 2 SNES finds come with stories.  ;)
first a lot where I stopped at a sale and started talking to the guy about video games, we where talking about games we loved and even episodes of AVGN. He say wait I have something and runs inside and brings out 5 SNES games, when I asked how much? we replied $1 for all of them.  :o
- WWF Wrestlemania
- Shaq Fu
- Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster Busts Loose
- The Pagemaster
- Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

Next I found an add for a sale way out in the boonies that advertised Video Gaming Consoles, it was like 30 miles from where I live so I thought I might pass on this trip. When I was heading home about noon something came over me and I started to head to this sale. I was thinking on the way "this is silly, its late and odds are it's all gone" but I kept going. When I found the place I walked in and saw nothing, I figured it all sold. So I asked the lady if it all sold, she said no it was still on a table in the back. So we both looked and the table was empty. She then said her son was there earlier and must have taken it all. she tells me He was supposed to go through it all and take want he wanted to keep. But he didn't do it the week before the sale and she put it all out to sell and I guess he showed up during the sale and took it all, when i asked what they where she replied Xbox, PS3, PS2, Wii, GC. At first I thought damn, wasted trip, then she said oh wait he didn't take this one and pulls a container from under the table and hands it to me.... And I couldn't believe it... a Super Nintendo with 10 games. After I see what games where there I asked how much, she said $30 okay? and I was happy to give her the money and I left there with a grin on my face. Here's the games.  ;D
- Aaahhh! Real Monsters
- Lagoon
- Super Mario All-Stars
- Final Fantasy Mystical Quest
- Donkey Kong Country
- Donkey Kong Country 2
- Final Fantasy II  ;D
- Super Mario RPG  ;D ;D
- Super Metroid  ;D ;D
and last the game I can't believe I found AGAIN!!!
