so i took my nephew shopping for video games

[chupe666]

last night and he picked out like 4 used baseball games for gamecube, nintendo 64 and playstation1. is this normal? i mean to have like 4 of the same sporting game? i mean they're all different i realize, but wouldn't the crappier play station ones be left in the dust by Home Run King for gamecube?

he also tried to preview GTA's Vice City, but i was hip to that trick. 10 yr olds don't need to check that shit out, right?

but it got me jones-ing for some video games. but i should probably start low-level old school. how much would a used play station 1 or sega genesis cost? all i really wanna play is hockey games.

i'll sell you my dreamcast for $20 ppd. no hockey games, tho. those you'll hafta get yourself.

 

[chupe666]

oh, my nephew used to have a dreamcast- it broke. he's still got games, so maybe he'd want it. not that he needs ANOTHER system- between gamecube, playstation, n64, gameboy color...

 

[chupe666]

so, like is dreamcast a pretty popular system? i didn't really see any used games there last night, but i may've just missed them. the games online for it look cheap.

avi, i really may be up for getting this from you.

 

[avi]

it's discontinued so no new games ever, but what was made for it is okay. a little better than a ps1, but not as hot as the ps2. still, it's dece. I'm just not a gamer and am not interested in it anymore.

ps, the virtuapro tennis game on it rules. other games I got: thps2, crazy taxi, soul caliber

 

[chupe666]

you gonna sell the games to a shop? how much you want for them?

i feel so old, i didn't even know it was discontinued. although i guess it makes sense why things are cheaper for it.

 

[avi]

I'll throw it all in a box for you for say $50 or so? it depends on shipping costs. Otherwise I could care less - I haven't touched it in months.

First off, shame on you! GTA Vice City is the grand daddy of all games! And if you we're a good uncle, you would let him play!

You want a game system? I have a Nintendo 64 with a bunch of games, including hockey. If you really want it, I'll send it to you.

 

[chupe666]

hey, if the kid's gonna learn to shoot hookers in the face, i don't wanna be the one to show him how.

i was thinking of either the dreamcast or a ps1 since they seem pretty cheap these days. $5 games is cool wit me.

 

[Firedwarf]

Dreamcast owns. Depends on what he likes, though. I'm not big on sports games but apparently the dreamcast had a lot of great sports games.

 

[LuminousAether]

If anyone has an N64 and The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, I'd like to buy it off you. Preferably under $40.

Better he learns it at home, Chupe, and not on the playground.
