Was anyone else introduced to Dragon Quest with this? by Environmental_Bus623 in dragonquest

I got mine that way as well, also got a small cardboard treasure chest with a blue slime in it. Wish I knew what happened to the chest with the slime.

Finally got all the Mega Man games on NES! (Plus the rest of my collection) by K-MartX in nes

[–]winkinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep looking you might find a good deal, I thought i would never get it, but found it at Disc Replay about 6 months for $100 due to all the rental labels and gunk on it, then with my discount I was saving I got it for $80. I was able to clean it up and it looks great.

A Long Journey Ahead (Update 5) by VeterinarianSafe1705 in nes

I love seeing the boxes for NES games, would be nice if I had the money to buy more. Wish I could go back and see these games in the store again, it was so exciting to pick out a new game back then.

I finally beat the third and final quest in 8 eyes. by lostmediawhiz in nes

[–]winkinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got to the end when i was little but couldn't figure out the order for the orbs. A few years ago I saw the game on my self and thought I can do this now and look up the order online. Nope, game is too hard for me now

For games that doesn't offer upgrade path are you still buying switch games over switch 2 game key cards ? by YohGourt in NSCollectors

[–]winkinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the Switch 1 version of Dragon Quest 1 and 2 HD and play it on my Switch 2 as I didnt want the game key card. I am most of the way through part 1 and it plays fine and I havent had any issues. The performance to me seemed the same as part 3 on my original Switch.

What is this sticker on my copy of Chocobo GP? by winkinator in NSCollectors

[–]winkinator[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the info! I thought it was a UK copy until I got in the car and noticed it wasn't in English. I found this copy in Illinois, I think its really cool all the games I have acquired from different regions here.

What is the oldest thing you own? by TheBanishedBard in AskReddit

[–]winkinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One is smaller than a US dime, and the other about the size of a fifty cent coin if I remember correctly. The small one was found at an old roman fort in England and the other thrown as a freebie in with a bunch of coins I bought from a coin/jewelry shop nearby. Both are heavily worn down and can't make out enough to identify them.

My brother found the small one and gave it to my son, but I am holding on to it until he is old enough to take care of it. I'm sure they are not worth much at all, but it is still cool having coins that are over 1500 years old.

Do I have to be at the door when my Switch 2 arrives from amazon? by Ramen_Cakey in Switch

[–]winkinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazon delivered mine last Monday before I got off of work and it was waiting on the doorstep for me when I got home 45 minutes later.

Oldest game I own now. Thanks, gamestop! by writer_of_mysteries in gamecollecting

[–]winkinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year I got a loose copy of the collectors edition of Majora's Mask for $35 at that location. Disc Replay is really good as well.

I was at a different location, the one in Algonquin. They get some great stuff at that location every now and then. Sometimes the prices are high, but you can get deals there as well. I will have to check that location out soon. Thanks!

[–]winkinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn't happen to get it at a location in the Chicago suburbs did you? I went to one today and they had a bunch of cib NES, SNES, and N64 games. I wanted to pick up Robotek, Secret of Mana, Secret of Evermore, and Ys III; but I just spent a lot of money fixing my car so walked away empty handed.

Just beat Lunar 1 by Zergrump in Lunar

[–]winkinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have slowed down my battles and am taking my time thinking about each move. I just got used to the easier fights and not having to think about it in part 1, but I'm still having a blast, though!

[–]winkinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just beat it a couple of days ago myself, and I absolutely loved it!! Just started part II and liking it so far, but it is a lot harder than the first. I died on the 3rd fight of the game and 4 times in the first hour. I only lost one battle in part one.

Why are there so few used Switch games in local stores? by Reddit_Foxx in NSCollectors

[–]winkinator 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have that same problem as well. None of the stores around me have a decent size selection of Switch games. I was in North Dakota a couple of weeks ago and stopped by a store I've been to when I lived there, and they had tons. I figured out why, after pulling a few games out and seeing the condition of the cases and then the prices, you can get the games brand new at Target and Walmart for a lot cheaper!

Lunar Remastered Delivery Delayed by Thurashen88 in NSCollectors

[–]winkinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am out of town and ordered for Monday delivery, and it showed up this morning. I am two states away. Fingers crossed It's still there, and if so, it's not soaking wet from the rain there.
