Enjoy Left 4 Dead. It is a good game.  
From my understanding, GameStop uses the name EB Games outside of the US for the most part.

Just played left 4 dead about a week ago.  Its the perfect co-op drinking game.  You don't have to put much thought in, simply grab some weapons and go forward shooting.  Perfect for if you want to game with some casual gamer friends and get drunk.  Fun game!

I've really slowed my collecting down since the start of the new year, but one thing I still want to get is boxed copies of each of the systems I'm collecting for.  So when I saw this on a local facebook swap and shop group, I decided to buy it.  It was $50 Canadian, so $37.32 American.  The system is in great shape and it has the booklet, charger and all papers.  I like puzzle games, and my son loves all things Mario, so the game was nice to get with the system.

Bought the following 3 ps2 games.  Def Jam fight for ny is cib, the other two are missing the manuals.  I wanted to add intellivision lives and taito legends 2 to my collection, and picked up fight for ny to trade/sell to recoup my costs of the 3.    
I paid $10 Canadian, so about $7.50 US for the lot.

I picked this lot up yesterday off of a facebook swap and shop group.  It contains 2 ds lites, 1 gba sp 101 model, 11 games (the 2 gba games weren't shown in the ad, so that was a nice bonus), 3 chargers and 2 system cases.  So far, everything that has been tested works great.
Total for the bundle = $45 Canadian, or $33 American

Today was a good day.  While I didn't find a ton, I am very happy with what I did find for the prices I got them at.  
1) Mario Party 10 with amiibo - got this at walmart. Its new, it was retail, but my wife, son and I all enjoy mario party games, so I wanted to grab this one.  It was $50 Canadian / $37.50 American
2) Tiles of Fate - got this at a fleamarket.  I'm not even after cib nes games anymore, but for the price I couldn't leave it.  Its just too rad. It was $5 Canadian / $3.75 American
3) Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn - got this at the fleamarket too, from a videogame vendor.  CIB, great shape.  His wii stuff was all 50% off. It was $12 Canadian / $9 American
4) CIB PS1 console - got this from a private seller off kijiji (kinda like craigslist).  great shape, everythings there down to baggy with all the papers.  It was $40 Canadian / $30 American
5) Mortal Kombat 2 vinyl promo poster - this one was a complete surprise pickup, which makes it even more rad.  When I went to pick up the ps1 console from the lady on kijiji, she had this just sitting in her porch.  I seen it, and asked if it was for sale.  She said it is, as she had a buyer for it who never showed up, so she was going to relist it.    I said that I would pay her her asking price if she wanted to save relisting it. She happily agreed, and I left her place with the cib ps1, and a rad vinyl poster.  Score!

All these items were seperate pickups, but wanted to share them all.  
Spiderman on ps1 is cib, and an excellent platformer.  I've beaten the n64 version, but it was the ps1 version I had growing up, so happy to have it again.  I got it on trade, so no real price.
CIB blue dsi.  I got this in a bundle with a loose ds lite, and several games.  After selling the ds lite and games, I got the boxed cib blue dsi for free.  The front needed some tape to become sturdy again, but for free I'm happy with it.
Sealed copy of Shovel Knight on wii u.  I've heard this is a great game.  I found this copy for $20 Canadian / $15 American at Walmart.  Happy to give it a try soon.

I just got back home with this.  It is a "SAR Search and Rescue" arcade cabinet by snk.  Everything works, though cosmetically it needs work.  I would much rather tackle that than anything electrical with it though.  It is not the original cabinet for it, but is the original board, marquee, and control panel.  It has rotating joysticks, which makes the gameplay pretty fun.
I paid $300 Canadian / $225 American for it. I have no idea if that was a decent deal or not, but at least for around here it seems to be.  I also sold some extras before I bought it today, so I technically only had to pull $150 Canadian / $112 American from the bank to buy it.
