Waiting hurts my soul...
Hey Everyone,

It's that time of year again. My local game store is having a July 4th sale, and I'll be stopping by to see if there are any good deals. At the same time I'm willing to pick up any games others want.

Here's the website with their prices: http://gamedude.com/

The sale comes out be about 10% off those listed prices. So keep that in mind. Prices are subject to change up to the day before, but usually don't. The price lists have a date they were last updated.

This isn't their inventory, and the only way to confirm they have the game is to call or stop in. If prices are too good to be true, then most likely they don't have it in stock and is hoping to buy it up cheaply before slowly raising the price. It's a pretty big store, and sometimes they happen to have some hard to find games (other times the people working there usually end up picking things up like Earthbound and such).

Please let me know if you have any requirements for the games (instructions, doesn't rattle, no stickers, no marker, etc...). All games are guaranteed to load to the first screen of game play from the store, and I'll probably try them out myself if possible.

Shipping is from the US, first class, with delivery confirmation (unless you want to pay for faster). You can opt for insurance if you'd like. I'm willing to ship international, but delivery confirmation isn't an option unless you want to spring for express.

I'll keep track of the requests until about Wednesday 10:30 am PDT when I'll head over to the store.

See if they have PSO 1&2 Plus (if you don't mind)

and really the only thing is...it works...
@_@
Thanks for posting this!

Games I'd buy for sure if near the listed price:

F-Zero (SNES) $7
Super Double Dragon (SNES)  $12
Tecmo Super Bowl (SNES)  $5
Cruis'n USA (N64)  $4
Goemon's Great Adventure (N64)  $23-$24 sale price

Also could you check to see if they have Earthbound and know for sure what the price is without the box and player's guide? $69 (~$62-$63 on sale) is a better price than I've seen in a lot of places but I have a friend who may have a copy he doesn't want, so put me down as a maybe on that one if they even have it. There are a few others I would be interested in but the price, even on sale, just isn't right.
Waiting hurts my soul...
I'll call about Earthbound on Monday or Tuesday if I have time.
@_@
Thanks, much appreciated.
My feelings on The Demon Rush
Blood Will Tell - PS2, and I'm looking for it with the box and manual.

The site lists it as 16 dollars and that's as high I'm willing to pay for it (don't worry I will pay for shipping too :P).

Thanks for doing this again, Zenic!

I am interested in the following titles (SNES):

7th Saga
Boogerman
Claymates
Super Turrican 2

Thanks again!
Touhou anyone? :D
They might have Skies of Arcadia Legends!

Crusader of Centy for Sega Genesis.  Preferably with box and instructions, but the game alone will suffice if not. 

I really should come up there myself since I'm in the city, but I've got too much studying to do.  Sad

How much do you think shipping to the UK would be for 3 or 4 carts?
Balls jerky
If they're serious about requiring SMS games to have boxes and manuals then plz:

Buster Douglas KO Boxing
Castle of Illusion
Golden Axe Warrior
Kenseiden
Teddy Boy (Sega Card)

Genesis:
MUSHA (cart only for $50 is a no if that's the price for complete then hell yes. I would actually pay up to $100 for complete)
Shadow of the Beast (only need Cart and even then only if you find other things I want)
Punisher (Complete for $16 is a yes otherwise pass)


"We Do Not Buy Cartridges or Boxes That Have Labels, Stickers, Or Other Markings On Them! They Must Be Clean"

This is hilarious because every single game you sent me last time had one of their stickers on it and they were the SUPER annoying to remove stickers that suck so fiercely. And they require you to trade in a SMS with 2 control pads but only sell them with one. wat?

for shipping:
nes carts weigh about 3.5-4oz each
snes carts are about 3oz
n64 carts are a little over 3oz each
genesis carts are close to 2oz each whether its a standard, accolade, or EA cart. not sure how that's possible but it is

obviously it's not going to be exact and games that have larger boards/batteries/whatever will weigh a bit more, but you can get a general idea
Haters gonna hate
I'm looking for the following games, all NES.

Bubble Bobble 2 ($129)
Little Samsom ($59)

Can you call ahead of time to let me know what they have and how much they are, then let me me know? Thanks!

Might as well ask for Stadium Events and Flintstones 2 while you're at it Wink
My feelings on The Demon Rush
Yeah dballin is right, EVERY Game Dude game comes with a super obnoxious sticker that lingers even if you take it off. Sad
Yes

Earthbound
E.V.O. Search for Eden

LOL. Fat chance.

I'm looking for Super Metroid and Super Mario World 2 if they have it. Also Stargate (snes). Willing to pay to ship to UK or maybe even to someone going to AGDQ.

Thanks man

Due to the huge amount of games already being requested, I'll call the store for you Zenic to see if they even have the game I'm trying to get.  I suggest more of us do that and NOT ask Zenic to spend the whole week contacting each of us to confirm if they even have the game/s.

Looks like $20 at an estimate.

Yeah, a lot of their "MUST INCLUDE EVERYTHING" warnings are so they can say, "it doesn't include what we require, so I can only give you $1 for selling this game to us." Then they turn around and sell it, cart only, at their full price.

The SMS games, you want them all with box and manual only?

As always dballin, lol!

Yeah, sorry about their warranty stickers. I can remove them beforehand, I think I was just super lazy last time. It just takes some q-tips and rubbing alcohol.

It's really no trouble while I have someone on the phone and ask them to confirm. I'm hoping if no one has said otherwise that if they have the game I'll pick it up and need not ask about it over the phone. In any case, if I happen to get a game that someone didn't want, in most cases I can still make some money back by selling it on ebay.

Yeah Complete only. My list is pretty much the SMS equivalent of Mecha's NES list though. I don't have much hope of them having them except maybe Teddy Boy and Kenseiden which just have decent prices. I'm capable of removing the stickers on mine so don't worry about it as long as they aren't dumb and put them right on the label, but they're usually on the back covering a screw so you can't swap PCBs I'm guessing.
Devastation
Gotta say I am interested in a complete Crusader of Centy for the Genesis. If there's only a cart, I'd settle for it as long as it doesn't have any major damage (e.g. markings, tears, etc.)

They might have one, $31 + shipping. Let me know within 16 hours.

To all those inquiring about Earthbound, no, they don't.

They said they can only check a couple of titles over the phone, so that's all I can get. I'll just stop by tomorrow and pick up what I can. Let me know if anyone is on the edge and was waiting for availability.

I'll text my friend ASAP. $31 plus shipping? She might go for that.

I wanna know if they have what I listed before buying. I might not be able to afford all of them at once, so I'd like to know what they have first.

Alright cool, thanks for checking. Just want to confirm I'm still in for all those I listed.
