Hey everyone engel762 and I went on a little road trip to Lincoln, NE to hit up a few stores. Long day but we hit up both Gamers, both Game Rooms, and a nice pawn shop. Then on the way home we stopped at my favorite local video game stores and he sure picked up a great lot of things (not just here but also in Lincoln). If you want to check out his purchases check out his blog under Engel762. My brother who isn't into the classic part of the collecting anymore also picked up a few nice Wii items to add to the collection. The road trip was great even though I was exhausted from working overnight Engel and I still had a great time and it was well worth the drive and the loss of sleep in the end. I hope to continue the adventures in game hunting with my friend. So here is a rundown on the items I picked up or TRADED with Engel.
*The Game Room -
-FREE Nintendo Wii 25th Anniversary Edition Mario Red System Box - Soon hopefully I can complete it but if not I hope to someday.
-Terminator: Rampage (Thanks Engel for looking under the table haha) - $3.00
-Rush'n Attack - NES CIB - I found this sitting behind the counter just laying there and asked about it since I have a huge passion for CIB NES Games. Price - $5.00
-Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Coming out of Their Shells Video - $1.00 - I know not a game but it's totally nostalgia.
*Gamers - Nothing big
-Legend of Zelda Minish Cap Strategy Guide - $4.95 - thought I didn't have this one but I do but sadly not up for grabs at this time.
Final but not least the trade with Engel. He wanted my extra copy of Halo: Reach Hardened Edition which is new my brother just opened it to check out the stuff in it. But at our local store I found Mass Effect - Limited Collector's Edition with the Pre-Order Bonus Disc for a whopping $60.00!!! So Engel picked it up for me and we traded Halo:Reach, Mario is Missing! NES, and few other games for it. Thanks again Engel for the drive, the fun time and Mass Effect.
And here are my brother's Best Buy Purchases:
-Wii Wireless Sensor Bar - $20.00
-Action Replay Wii - $20.00

Had a good time in Lincoln. Glad I spotted that Wii box in the back of Game Room, good luck with getting a red Wii to fill it!

Thanks!! Well with all the ones we saw I will hopefully find one someday soon.

I have a red Wii console to go with that box.
If you want it, well TOO BAD, YOU CAN'T HAVE IT! IT'S MINE-MINE-MINE NO TOUCHY-TOUCHY NEENER NEENER NEENER! I need something to play Skylanders on after all.
But at least you have the NP Minish Cap guide, which is one of the few LoZ strat guides I don't presently possess... heavy sigh.

@Zagnorch: Jealous Zag and sad at the same time. We could always trade LOZ for Red System haha yeah kidding lol. But I will find one someday!!! Who knows maybe I'll sell you one of Minish Cap guides if my brother decides to sell his! I have the crazy wal-mart blue wii which isn't backwards compatible but eh its a wii and it's and odd ball color.

I have to agree that blue is an oddball color for the Wii. I think it looks great in black, red, or white. But blue? Not so much...
|
|
@Zagnorch: I totally agree but for my first Black Friday present I figured what the heck for $100.00 why not!
