He actually replaced both with kidney-shaped spuds. It's true, I was there.

Take some nice photos of Amazing Tater and Spud's Adventure and contact the person who runs the Game Boy World site. I'm sure he'll appreciate it.

I actually like that copy of Balloon Fight most in your pictures. ^_^

I picked up Freakyforms Deluxe for $20 yesterday. It's actually quite good!

Went to a couple of local stores and got some good deals.



I got Pokemon Diamond at EBGames for 22 dollars after tax, and I figure I can easily sell it for more than that around Christmas time.

The Game Boy games are all good games that I wanted to add to my cartridge collection, and I got some great prices. Tennis was 5 dollars, Kirby's Dream Land 2 was 15, Final Fantasy Legend was 20, and everything else was 10 dollars each. Can you believe people on ebay trying to charge 20+ for Bubble Ghost? That being said, a nice condition Kirby's Dream Land 2 at 15 dollars is a bargain no matter where you shop. Catrap tends to go for a little more than 10 typically, so that was a nice bargain too. Pretty much everything I picked up today was for less than you could get online, which is always satisfying.  

After tax, I spent about $110 dollars, but I figure it would have been way more than that if I had shopped online. I'll make a little of that back with Pokemon Diamond later on.

Another one of my microscores. A new/unopened Wii Sports Resort bundled with a Wii Motion Plus accessory. Easily worth more than the $6.99 from the thrift store

One eBay auction for Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (just the cart, with the oval seal if anyone wants to know) went under the radar and I got it for about $22 w/ shipping.

Did I do good?

Ooh, AVS! Was that just a regular pre-order or do you have special powers that helped you get yours early?

I ordered mine a few days in, so I'm guessing it will take longer to ship...

Indeed, very cool find. IQ is one of the more fun games I had from the original PSX collection.

On our way home from Louisville, my husband and I stopped in at a used game/music store in Corydon, IN. Picked up Lost Kingdoms for $15. Got home ~1 1/2 hours later to find no manual (that's OK to get it cheaper than eBay), but also discs for both Lost Kingdoms 1 & 2 in the case. Thinking "this isn't right...", we called the store and let them know, so we could mail it back on Monday (it'd be a little hard to drive back there on such a tight schedule). We were told it was OK to hang on to both games, since they didn't have a case on the shelves for LK2.

So... Yay.
