Sweeeet. :)

sealed games where the disc hasn't been pressed into the case hard enough and is rattling around inside, getting all scuffed up.totalgridlock

I've encountered this a few times. It's certainly worthwhile to give a sealed game a quick shake and listen for a rattle before purchasing. :)

$12.15 for the whole shabang shipping and all... waflerevolution

WOW! Incredible. There's a sealed copy of F-Zero at a local game store going for $9 I've been thinking of picking up. You got a far better deal!

I can just imagine trying to explain that situation to my local GameStop! mijahi

No joke. This topic makes me want to go open up all of my sealed games. You know, just in case.

I can't say that many older trailers have been memorable. gmsnpr

This one was.

It is for the original NES Legend of Zelda that I distinctly remember from my childhood:

It looks like an insane Art Garfunkel.

Leevers!!!

Unfortunately, I don't have my collection tracked in anything that includes the publisher or developer; but man, that would be sweet. Also, unfortunately, my collection is currently stored away in multiple locations throughout my house, and filing through all that would be too much trouble. I know I have quite a few (but certainly not as many as snpr or mathurin). I came up with a count of 46 titles after looking at Wikipedia's Atlus page, but that's just going off my memory which is certainly shoddy. I also have some Japanese imports by Atlus that probably aren't on the Wikipedia page.
