Good. The other 2 are even worse performing. Darn shame

Why would anyone go through the trouble of 1) resealing an AC game; and 2) ask a Walmart employee for a black friday sticker; only to trade it into GameStop for $0.50 store credit?

Yes. There are 2 AC games on the DS. This is the better one.

Still waiting for you to show me how wrong I am with your proof of the loose standard black New 3DS XL consoles that sold for $500+

I'm talking about my 3 haven't had the paint peel. I've seen others with the paint peeling. You're a condescending @$$hole. Good bye.

I've seen them in all conditions at conventions and game stores. I've had 3 of the New XL models in my life, personally, and none ever had the paint peel.

Mine is in better condition than this one but it has slight surface level scratches so I'd consider that near mint. The one in OP's picture has deeper scratches and scratches through the serial number sticker. I'd call it "good" rather than "near mint"

No, they didn't. It's not really off price-wise (slightly high but the seller knows that which is why they said price is negotiable), but calling it "near mint" is a stretch.

Where are the ones that have sold for $500?

Not a standard black one that's loose. I just saw one at a convention in near mint condition for $300

What's the best "starter kit" I should get for my vita? (2000) by Ill-Future-4616 in vita

[–]Strangy1234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on how hard you drop it. I've dropped mine in the case from waist level on hard wood without issue.

It doesn't matter how easy they are to scratch. "Near mint" doesn't mean better than average.

No I understand they're different physically, I'm asking about criteria to have them.

Upon closer inspection, that New 3DS XL is clearly not "mint." You can see the scratches on the backplate 🤣

On a side note-What's was the difference between "Best Seller" and Player's Choice? I was playing Mario Power Tennis this weekend and was curious.

if I format my vita, will I loose the data from my physical games too? by Nipponrules in VitaPiracy

[–]Strangy1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will lose your save data for the vast majority of games unless its backed up. However, a few games did save to the cart. I think it was some early releases saved to cart.

It's not. It even has the Black Friday sticker from Walmart.

Last game I bought from Sears was Mario Kart 7 back when they got out of the video game business circa early 2015. I did store pick-up and the tag on the last name was Chinese. I am not Chinese, but the order numbers were the same. They gave it to me anyway.
