For $47, that's a helluva haul. Didn't care for R6: Lockdown or Gladius, but they're not bad games by any means. The only game in there that's really worthless is SW: Battlefront, but it's still fun if you have friends with consoles to system link with (or you can use XBConnect assuming there are people online with it.)

Thank you

 

Picked this up for $10 in a craigslist deal today. Proud of how the xbox collection has grown in a year.

Agreed, I really lucked out with that deal.

 

Got these in the mail and added the Super Nintendo power adapter to my boxed SNES to make it complete. Yay

Traded a PS3 Kiosk for some games today. I'm probably happiest about the fact that a perfectly good kiosk didn't get destroyed and tossed into a landfill. I'm glad it will be played with by a gamer.

 

The deal was a modded xbox with a ton of retro game emulators, Castevania Bloodlines, and MegaManX in exchange for the kiosk. It was a good trade for us both. Already have MMX so I'll use it for sale or future trade.

I have a modded wii already, but I'm really digging having the xbox as another option to play the games I can't afford.

Got this at walmart.I feel a compulsion to leave it wrapped in plastic, even though a part of me feels like holding onto sealed games is sort of dumb.

Got these for $15 in a craigslist deal. I already have the Nintendo Select version of Super Mario Galaxy and am not sure which one to keep and which to flip. What do you think is better to keep, original or Nintendo Select version? I understand that usually the Nintendo Select version is a less expensive, later release of the same game after it sells over a certain number of copies, but does this make it less desirable? Also heard that some of the Nintendo Select versions of games have patches and updates to improve upon glitches from the previous versions. Should this be taken on a case by case basis depending on the game or is original or Nintendo Select usually preferred over the over by most gamers. Or do most people not really care? I know with other series I usually prefer original AKA black label over the platinum/greatest hits, but maybe it's different with Nintendo..

Paid a total of $95.65 for everything. Well, actually a little more because I renewed Lamestop power up card for an extra $15 to get a buy two, get one deal...

Nice boxed super advantage ;)

 

I have 2 of those, not in the box obviously but they're a great stick :)

I recently purchased Tales of Vesperia for Xbox 360 used from Gamestop and realized it wasn't my kind of game less than 7 days after purchase. At the time I bought the game, I also renewed my Power Up Rewards card to take advantage of better pricing and a buy 2, get 1 free deal.

 

The game that I wanted to exchange happened to be the game that I received for free with the buy 2, get 1 deal, and while I can understand not refunding the full $ value of the game because of the deal, the Gamestop employee denied that I could even exchange it claiming that "You can't return it because you didn't pay for it since you got a deal." I asked him if I could exchange it for another item of equal or greater value and pay the difference and he insisted that I could not exchange or return the game because I "got it for free."

 

Luckily, Alex was there and quickly took over the sale and handled it professionally. He gave me credit for the Gamestop value of the game and applied it towards this Wii U Pro controller. Thanks Alex.

Got a 360 E system only off craigslist for $30 and got cables and power brick off ebay for $40. I have a bunch of extra controllers already so it's all set up and works great. Every room has a 360! Only bummer is the guy sprayed some weird gunk on the console that won't come off. I'm not sure what it is, but it works so it's no big deal.

 

It came with a 60gb hard drive that came from a fat model, but the guy took it out of the case to fit in the hdd slot.

I spent more on this than I usually would. I'm not confident that I got a killer deal, but I think that after selling off the games on the right I will have gotten a decent deal for the games on the left that I want to keep. I'm a little embarrassed to say what I paid, but I'll admit it. I paid $155 for everything. The sellers (husband and wife) refused to barter and it was either all 31 games for that price, or $10 per game, so I relented and just bought everything. Most of it's complete.

I'm keeping these (except for NSMB and Pokémon Diamond)

I'm going to try to recoup a little with these.
