As some of you may know, Rhino viedo games recently got bought out by gamestop. Well, gamestop doesnt handle anything pre Gamecube generation, so all of their used stock was 75% off.

I go in there today to see what I can snag, and I come to find out that a guy came in there yesterday and bought ALL of the used NES stuff.

Needless to say, Im pretty aggravated...

Oh. I'm sorry to hear you're selling your games. You might regret it one day.

yea i know what you mean. I sure could use the money from my games for my college funds as well, but I love my games way to much to sell them.

My problem isn't that I should sell my games, I just need to stop buying so much. I can't believe how much money I've spent, just since I started coming here! NA has awoken a beast within me.

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

A long time ago I purchased EB's entire stock of NES games when they were 50% off, plus my 10% off card. That was when I first started collecting NES. I got around 100 or so games that way. So basically I did exactly what the guy did who got there before you.

Another time I heard about the same sale so I went back and they were already sold out, I was told somebody ELSE bought their entire stock and I was too late. So I feel you man. I was successful once and was screwed once. Yup...

Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia!

Looks like Rhinos site was merged with gamespots so the store locater is gone. But they were mostly in the southern US.

And yes they did have a bunch of 64 games, but I didnt really look at them.
