So it was a pretty productive weekend as far as gaming goes! To start things off Saturday morning I headed over to GameStop to pick up a copy of The Last Story for the Wii. This game is pretty sweet looking. I intend to maintain a sealed copy so I won't be opening mine but I've looked up some pictures online of everything that comes with it and it looks fantastic. I'm choosing not to open it because I am pretty confident that this title will be one of the rarer ones to find on the wii, because the wii is at the end of its lifespan.
Then my wife and I went to a few garage sales and found some good deals as far a baby items go. I was able to pick up some original xbox stuff though. I generally just stick to nintendo but I offered a lady $40 for 2 original xbox systems about 5 controllers and 24 games. My intent is to resell it-I'm hoping I'll be able to make a decent profit on it.
Last but not least we got to Goodwill. I always check for video games here but I rarely find them. However, I also am into board games and I have a large selection to choose from. I generally get some great deals on board games at Goodwill (and they generally have all the pieces-something that is very important for board games). My recent board game purchases from Goodwill consist of "Poo card game" "Monopoly-Star Wars Saga Edition" "Monopoly- Star Wars Clone Wars" "Moods" and "Sequence". All are in pretty good condition and I'm glad I found them. Most of these games go for 20+ in retail stores but at Goodwill I can generally pick them up for no more than $2.99 ea.
Well, that's the post for today. Stay tuned to see what my updates are for this week.
