If you saw the post on weird games you knew this was coming. lol
I few weeks ago I was looking up odd games made in Japan and came across this one, A weird game where you have cats taking over your business and you have to play weird mini games with them. Watching a video on this made me laugh so hard I had to have it in my collection. The box art alone gets a good laugh. lol 
- Sukeban Shachou Rena (JP)

SNES
Found this CIB for only $3. Box is beat up pretty good but everything else is in great shape.
- Williams Arcade's Greatest Hits

At the same use game store I got the SNES boxed game I saw this. It's a rare Colcovision game that sells for about $40-$50 loose cart. This was CIB box okay shape, but had the manual and game in near mint shape. This sells for well over $100 CIB and they only had it for $30.

- Game Party Champions

Even $5 is way too much. I got it for $4 brand new  2 years ago and got rid of that as soon as I could afterwards. It's AWFUL.

Found the complete set of Super Mario Hot Wheels! Found them at a local variety mall.

Ya I know when I see some games on clearance, I think is it really worth $5. If it was used at $5 i would probably pass. Brand new shovel ware and most sport games is pretty much $5 and under is worth it just to add to add to my collection. I even like to collect the "Bad" games.

I'm told it's one of XBox 360's hidden gems. I'm hoping what I hear is correct!

Some people really gripe about Ninja Theory's games.  But me, I really enjoy them.  Enslaved was a great game IMO.

Haha yeah I know, I was speaking generally. In your case I guess it's good, but it's the only good use I can see for it  Anyone wishing to play it should definitely revise their stance, though.

No, never mentioned it was rare. Only cost me $4.

That reminds me - my bf told me that their GameStop saw someone return a Pip-Boy edition of Fallout 4 (still sealed).

When the sales associate asked why they were returning it, the customer said it was because she caught her boyfriend cheating.  Apparently she had gotten the Pip-Boy edition for him and decided to return it when she found out what he was doing

Just got a nice pickup from Half Price Books yesterday, they had a huge gaming lot come in and I've been going almost daily waiting for them to put the games out on the shelf. I'll post a picture of all my November haul after I get home today.

Nice.  Aside from new releases, my November pickups have been dry.  I've ended up with quite a few posters, display boxes and the like but not much in the way of actual games or hardware.  I'm not going to complain one bit though.  As for gaming, 2015 has been a good year for me and I've filled out huge chunks of my collection.
