Down the road, they'll probably become 50% off or more but by then the good games might already be taken, and who wants to risk it? Plus I have an Edge card there so I get another 10% off on top of it.<br /><br />I picked up:<br /><br /><em>Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX<br />Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages<br />Boy and His Blob: Rescue of Princes Blobette</em> (awesome!!)<br /><em>Catrap</em> (awesome!!)<br /><em>Bionic Commando: Elite Forces<br />Wave Race</em><br /><br />The <em>Zelda</em> games were the most expensive at $10 each (before the discount), but all the others were less than $5. <em>Boy and His Blob</em> was I think $2, and you could've knocked me over with a Sixaxis when I saw it on the shelf. I never thought I'd stumble across that little treasure.<br /><br />And since I've quickly grown tired of having a lamp perched right over my head whenever I want to play my Game Boy Color, I also picked up a Game Boy Advance SP. It's the one that's <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Game-Boy-Advance-Classic-Limited/dp/B00023JJUW">styled like an NES controller</a>, so I couldn't resist it.<br /><br />I think I'm almost done collecting Game Boy games. There's less than a half-dozen titles I'd even want. The holy grail is <em>Penguin Wars</em>. <a href="http://gameboy.ign.com/dor/objects/9151/penguin-wars/images/penguin-wars-20041220104021805.html">Gotta get me some <em>Penguin Wars</em>.</a>Dante Kleinberghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15352526035841213773noreply@blogger.com
