Game Deals for 2/23/2017
Haven’t done a deals roundup in a long while. Here are a few recent things you might think are worth getting in on: NIS America NIS currently has a metric butt-ton of different collector’s editions available for pre-order. I wish I could give you a good prediction of which of these editions will actually be […]
GameStop.com stole my money
I know this story is not unique, but hopefully the more people speak out about this kind of thing, the better chance we have of GameStop continuing to f*** up in this manner. Here’s to hoping my local GameStop.com aren’t douchebags and let me return the thing without issues.
Always Bet on Pokemon
There are two things that are true of life: Jazz music is bad Core Pokemon games will never depreciate in value I bring this up because Amazon.com currently has Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby for $19.99 apiece. I can just about guarantee that this is the LOWEST price you will ever pay for a sealed copy […]
The 10 Rarest Wii U Games
Forgive the clickbait title, but this blog isn’t terribly well known, so I must employ some SEO tactics to try and get it to show up in Google! That being said, I promise this is a legitimate list, and should hopefully contain some good information for those looking to snag Wii U titles while you […]
Hot Deals for 4/17
Let’s not waste any time and go straight to the deals! Toys R Us: Over at the Big R, all games are “buy one, get one 40% off.” This isn’t a great deal for full-priced stuff, but there’s a few clearance games which make this potentially worthwhile. I personally picked up Chibi-Robo (3DS) and Shovel […]
I Didn’t Choose the Thrift Life, the Thrift Life Chose Me
My favorite way to spend a weekend morning has always been the same: driving around to random thrift stores and flea markets in search of weird stuff. I’ll try not to get too wistful about it, but I’ve always found there to be something beautiful in these places. Old yellowing shelving units piled high with the […]
Tools of the Trade | Invaluable Items for Game Collectors
One thing I wish I’d had when I first started collecting, is a guide to all the various little tools that can help keep a collection in good condition… as well as a warning of which tools to be avoided! For instance, did you know that the industrial cleaner Goof Off will completely melt through […]
$40 Nintendo 2DS and Other Deals (4/1)
Not an April Fool’s post, I swear! Randomly stopped by a Toys R Us while I was out and found a 2DS for less than half of retail? Any time you can get a console for the same price as a game, its probably a good deal! Wow what? Why? pic.twitter.com/s5ccFxVs7S — Vito Gesualdi (@VitoGesualdi) […]
2016: First quarter collecting update
Part of the reason this blog got so off track is that I spent two weeks in Massachusetts, where all my Earthly priorities kind of went out the window. I spent a lot of that time cataloging my East Coast game collection, since my records of what exactly I had were a bit spotty. I […]
Amazon / GameStop Deal Speculation for 3/18/2016
Been awhile since I did one of these posts (or any kind of post for that matter). Trying to get back on the wagon! I will say, that if you’ve been checking in on these deals posts, I’ve had a decent record of calling when the time is right to bite on a price. Persona […]
