Got a bunch of stuff today. Most of it at least was probably worth it, we'll see.
New
DS
--
Etrian Odyssey III: Heroes of Lagaard -- $27, with artbook. Yes, I got an actual new game, wow. :) I don't have EO2, but I have the first one and liked it a lot, and the artbook is a limited edition item you won't be able to get forever, so I decided to get it when I saw a copy in a store with the artbook included. :)
Used stuff
Genesis
--
P.T.O.: Pacific Theater of Operations - $4, complete
Atomic Runner - $4, cart only
Ristar: The Shooting Star - with box (cardboard style) but no manual. $10, but I got this and the next two games buy two get one free -- so this and the next two games were $15 total.
Whip Rush - cart only, $5 - a shmup, so of course I was going to get it. It's alright.
PS2
--
World Destruction League: Thunder Tanx - $5 (free really)
Dreamcast
--
Super Magnetic Neo - complete. $10, but this was another buy two get one free; this and the next two games were $20 total, as all three would have been $10 each.
Speed Devils - complete, but the disc is damaged so I'll probably have to return this. Too bad, I really wanted to get this game, it's pretty good.
SNES
--
Top Gear 3000 - cart only. Awesome to finally find this game, I love the SNES and N64 Top Gear games and this one I hadn't seen... it's really good, futuristic Top Gear racing, with 4-player splitscreen too! Awesome stuff.
N64
--
Hybrid Heaven - $8, cart only
PSX
--
Spin Jam - $3, complete - low budget European Bust-A-Move ripoff, with a circular field and spinning instead of a vertical one, so at least they did try SOMETHING a little different.
PC
--
Lode Runner: The Legend Returns - jewelcase only, $1
The Journeyman Project 2: Buried in Time - dual-jewel jewelcase only, $4
Homeworld: Cataclysm - $10, complete (original style large box). I probably shouldn't have gotten this, I got Homeworld back in 2000 or so and had some issues with it (didn't like it nearly as much as many), so I never got this expansion or the sequel, and $10 isn't cheap, but... I got it anyway. Quite possibly not worth it, but Homeworld is such a beautiful game, and those big boxes are awesome looking... looking on EBay now it sells for ~20, so I guess it wasn't a bad deal.
They had a complete large box copy of the original Homeworld too, but I have that already (well, I have the Game of the Year Edition re-release, but close enough) and it was also $10, so I didn't get that.
