I forget now who it was, but I remember someone saying that they wanted a new copy of Megaman Legends 2....At a reasonable price.

I found this:

http://neugames.stores.yahoo.net/megmanleg2ps.html

Its rather cheap only 19$.

Just thought I might bring this to attention.

... Now if I can just get my parents to buy it...

EDIT: It doesn't say the condition. Am I to assume it's brand new? I don't mind used as long as the case and booklet is in good condition and the game itself is 100% playable.

After looking further at the site...I would be careful about ordering something there and or giving away your personal infomation....Almost all the links on the front page are broken. Order at your own risk.

Sorry about that, I knew it looked to good to be true.  :P

That does seem sort of risky to buy it.

I'm sure you can get Legends 2 easily at any gamestop or EB.

Just look at the bargin bins.

You're so wrong, my friend.

Gamestop is one of the LEAST likely places you'll find it. You'd have better luck finding X7 there.

Even the Flea Market shrugs their shoulders when I ask them if they have the game.

My brother managed to find our copy at our local GameStop, but that was pure luck, I'm sure.  He paid about $13 for it.

They have X7's where ever I go to shop.

I doubt they have X7 at the GAP

They do. XXXXXXXL's are only for the fattest of fatties, though.

Superbowl XXXXXXXL is going to be eeeeeepic.

I hope rocket shoes are incorporated into the standard uniform by then.

Think of how much cooler football would be with rocket shoes!

The kind that make you fly or run fast? 'Cause the former would be useless in american feetsball.

Fly. Useless is redundant because just... try to imagine playing football IN THE AIR!

NO I WILL NOT.

I'm sure you can get Legends 2 easily at any gamestop or EB.

Very few of us still sell PS1 games.

It'd be quite a gem if I found one at a Gamestop. My best shot of getting the game is the flea market, and everytime I ask, they don't have it either. I'm desperately wanting a game that's out of my grasp.

That's like me and Lunar 2.

Keep looking in Gamestops, flea markets and Goodwills.

You never know, but your chances really are not that high. :(

I can see you really want it, so If I ever find an extra one somewhere I'll sell it to you for cheap. Seriously.

Very few of us still sell PS1 games.

However, for the sake of patronization, I'll check our computers tonight, and see which stores, if any, have one.

They just opened up a brand new Gamestop near my house, and they don't even sell used PS1 games. Or used N64 games.

However, they do sell used original Game Boy games... but no used Game Boys of any sort that could play them.

So does the Gamestop closest to me.

I used to see a small bin for used N64 stuff nearby the counter before the Wii and PS3 were released though. It had a sign saying that regardless if they were sold or not, they'd be removed from the store for good soon.

They still have used Gamegear and Gameboy stuff, yes. I got my Mega Man Xtreme at a Gamestop.

Thats stupid, thats the main reason I go to stores that sell used video games.

There is a card store at the mall in my area that sells NES, PS1, N64, Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo games and systems. They have a small, but cool selection....There was Sega CD System last time I was there..

Meh. If all else fails....I still have estarland.com!

Checked our computers this evening, which means I checked every Gamestop/EB Games/Funco Land/Rhino Games in the continental US.

None of us have a copy of MML2.

Even more painful, if we did, it would only be $12.99

Even more painful, if we did, it would only be $12.99

Hehe, thats probably why you don't have any left.

I don't see how it's painful. Maybe that's business inexperience. That sounds like a good price, and I've seen cheaper.

I saw some PS2 game in December that was literally $1.99. Must've been pretty #####ty.

... It's painful because that's a significantly better price than what it runs for on Amazon (~$50)

I'd hardly say Gamestop is lacking in business experience, and I KNOW that wasn't directed toward me.

We've got PS2 games for $0.99, and quite a few of them. Usually they're either really #####ty, super common, or a Madden game (in which case they're both).

I believe he meant himself, Edge, since he couldn't understand why you said the price was painful.

Meh. 40 hour work weeks and 17 credits hasn't left me with much time for sleep.

Thus, I'm bitchier than usual.

Well, as long as you're not bitchy in bed, cupcake.

Last thing I bought from Gamestop was the Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition Gamecube Disk.

It had a big "NOT FOR RESALE" thing printed on it.

Guitar Hero 3 discs (if they came in the guitar & game bundle) are marked the same way.

As are a lot of other things.

Not For Resale applies to things in their new state. For example: I couldn't open a White PS2 with Singstar bundle and sell both pieces separately as new items.

The thing is, we don't buy bundles (save for a single controller with your system and the cords and such), we only buy constituent parts. So you would trade in your Guitar Hero 3 disc and the controller as two separate items. We would then sell them as such.

I figured it wasn't anything big otherwise they wouldn't be selling it, I just found it funny.

Somewhat related, I filled out an application for the new Gamestop that opened literally only 3 minute drive away from me. I have yet to drop it off.

I believe he meant himself, Edge, since he couldn't understand why you said the price was painful.

Yeah, that's exactly it. Saying an employee of a business has a lack of experience I find to be a lttle stupid anyway, so I wasn't directing it to Edge.

Speaking of the devil, I wish I had your job. ._.;

The starting pay is ass. Minimum wage in most places. It may also only be a practice here, but most of our part time employees only get 5-10 hours a week.

On the plus side, we get 15% off of everything (except consoles) and anything that comes into the store used we have the ability to check out. It's like renting ##### for free.

We also get 20% off at Barnes and Noble.

If you end up with a management position like mine, they pay is around $7.50 an hour (varies by location) but honestly, I'd trade that raise to no longer have to deal with have the stupid ##### I get each day.

It's too bad none of you live near me, we're about to #####-can a worthless employee, and I need competent people.

You know what's interesting? I'm not sure if I've gotten a raise or not. I think I might've since I've been there for like a year and half, but if I still make minimum I don't mind since I love the job.

But minimum wage in Ontario is 8$ and we've recently been pushing for 10$ because eight isn't a living wage. Why is that interesting? Well now that our dollar is up, our minimum wage totally outweighs the U.S.'s and the balance is all weird. It used to be like, minimum was 4$ in the States and 6.85$ here. Works out for me though.

I still haven't turned in my application but I plan on stopping by tomorrow. I shouldn't have marked the date on it when I first filled it out, probably makes me look lazy. February 18th my ass.

Anyway, I know about the discount. I have a friend who works at Barnes & Noble so I make her come with me whenever I need to buy a game. Very useful, even if it's kind of mean to use her like that. Saved me enough money to not care.

I worked at an ice cream/chocolate shop over the last two summers and got around $7.00 an hour my second summer. Very reasonable pay considering all the hours I clocked in.
4th of July weekend gave me over $100 when you added in the massive amounts of tips. Best weekend ever, considering all I did was make waffle cones and serve ice cream.

over here, our min wage just went up to $8.05.

Over here is WA state by the way.

From the way I hear it from many people from Vancouver, though the dollar is up, the CA inflation is not, so they are paying for a snickers candy bar for about $1.40, whereas here in the states, it's $0.80.

It's 69 cents.

We have it for $1.25... thats bull..

It'll be different depending on where you are.

Cost of living and all that.

Cost of living here is WAAAAY up there, but it doesn't change the fact that a candy bar is 69 cents.

And your location relative to where the candy bar was made?

I'm in California, I don't know where they make Snickers.

Our dollar has been at par, just under par, and over par with the U.S. dollar for a while. Constantly fluctuating between at par and over seems to be what it's doing most. However, they have changed the prices of nothing, making book stores a damn killing.

Before our dollar was up, my store started charing the U.S. cover price on everything because we barely lost any money by doing it and saved our customers a bundle. Then the dollar went up right after, and everything was even cooler. But there are still a lot of places charging Canadian cover prices and ##### like that, it's stupid.

The only place having the dollar up actually means you get more for your buck is in the U.S. That's soooo lame.

The fact that we're about to write every tax paying American a check for at least $300 doesn't help the value of our dollar any.

For my ethics class I had a question like "what would do with a million dollars?" and I said I'd trade it in for euros and then wait for the Canadian dollar do go back down. Just a sidebar.

If you live near a Gamestop that has PS1 or N64 games, stock up now.

They're scheduled to be pennied out this coming week, and will then vanish from all of our stores, permanently.

Thats lame. Thats why I go to places like Gamestop....I suppose estarland.com does just as well(if not better) than Gamestop.

You are right I just went to the Gamestop in the Mall of America(1 of the 2 Gamestops that are in that crazy place) and no PS1, N64, or GB games were to be found.

I just don't understand why they won't even take them anymore....I mean they can still make money off them. I guess they just take up more space I suppose.....

*sigh*  Looks like I'll have to find Digimon World 1 and MML on eBay, then...  That sucks, that's some good walking wasted.  I'd much rather be able to find them at a Gamestop.  At least I get a workout walking there. -_-

*sigh*  Looks like I'll have to find Digimon World 1 on eBay, then..

I feel your pain D:

Will they get rid of Game Boy and GBC games, too? Because the brand new down the road just opened up, and it is lacking games of N64 and PS1 affiliation, understandably, but there's this whole stand devoted to old Game Boy junk. Of course, they aren't selling any Game Boys that could play any of those games, and even though I see multiple copies of EVERY MegaMan GB game, it kills me because I have no way of playing them even if I buy them...

...but aside from that, those seem to be selling, and that whole display devoted to them isn't even taking up much room. Just curious, I really don't care much.

One day I plan on buying random GB games for the hell of trying them, like the MegaMan GB games and Xtreme and other crap... Although I'll have to go get my old Gameboy Color or hook the Gamecube and Gameboy player in order to play them...

You can get a GB color for 15$ on amazon.com. Not to mention GBA SPs and the Nintendo DS will play old games too.

I suppose what is keeping the GB games there is their size. If they still make money on them and they fit in a little glass case in the corner of the store...What the heck?

And the orginal GB Megaman games are not that good. Stick with the NES versions.

MMGB 1, 3 & 4 are good.

Yes they are decent nothing to write home about though. Still they are not near as good as the NES versions.

I though it was a port when I bought it, It kind of surprised me when it was so different.

I have MMGB 1. It's hard, it's mental, and it's great.

It is indeed all of the above.

Wily musics are good too.

I've only played MegaMan IV GB, and even then, I never owned it.

Will they get rid of Game Boy and GBC games, too?

Yes, but not quite as soon. We'll stop taking them as trade in about Mid-April. From there, they're around as long as it will take us to sell them, or till someone at corporate decides they're going to go the way of the dodo.

Don't know why we're talking about the GB MegaMan games but I have the first one and I've beat it. Once.

I got to the end twice....I never beat it.
