UPDATE! Got a call from a friend at PnT

So we ran into the store to see the 63 NES games he just took in for trade...
All were commons that I already had except for this guy.
Found him at the bottom of the pile...

In case you can't read the price tag...it Says$7.99, but that is not what I paid.
After my discount it was $5.75 plus tax.
I would say it was worth the 6 mile trip to the store on a Sunday night...

  • Damn, nice grab!
  • awesome score!
  • Sweet score dude!
  • Wow, killer score man!
  • nice grab! I too was fortunate enough to score DT2 on the cheap as well. My buddy at PnT calls me every time they get any retro traded in. Im only about 2-3 miles away too. Good to have friends!
  • Nice! Awesome snag, man!
  • Killer score man....Ducktales 1 is one of my favorite NES games of all time. I still play it probably at least once a month. I still need to get a copy of Ducktales 2 however but I doubt I will be lucky to find a deal like that Congrats dude!!

    True dat...
  • What a find...sounds like you got some good friends. It's always more badass finding a deal like this when it's the LAST game you look at. Congrats!
  • Can't go wrong for that price!
  • Great Score Man!!
  • Nice score dude!
  • I wish we had any good retro stores around here... we had about 4 or 5 that all closed in a 2-3 year period.



    Nice grab... is that really PnT's normal price for that?
  • DT2 is a pretty fun game. I bought my copy off the rack way back when it came out. A lot of stores never even got it, so I was surprised to see it at the K-Mart. But I paid about $40 new. You got the better deal, by far.
  • dang you guys that have that hook up... hook me up with a dracula X SNES



    theirs a PnT now called something else in glendale that had 2 of them.... but the tag price is too high for me >.< (and I don't have a hook up )



    good score though^^
  • Nice grab on that! Good to have someone on the inside
  • That huge sticker makes it look crappy, you should sell it to me Matt



    Kidding, congrats, nice pickup,

    You mean the reciept lol. I thought it was a sticker at first as well.

    Much better than what I payed for this game back in 2002, got mine when I had it for $14.99, and I thought that was a deal. So I take it whoever sold that copy in the store you bought your's from doesn't keep up with the value of games nowadays.

  • Excellent find, I'd gladly pay that price and hold a poker face whist doing so.
  • So went back today to pick a "varient" i needed...the GM was there and called me out on the DK2...but hey, his employee took it in as a Game Boy Duck Tales 2...that is why it was so cheap. Afraid my buddy is going to get in trouble, so I called him and doesn't care what the GM says...he was alone, busy and had 63 NES games to bring in...of course he was going to miss something.
    Anyway...the reason I went back was for this...

    Thought is was going to be something super rare...but isn't. Just a PALexclusive version. Good thing I only paid 2.59 for it. It was listed as the NTSC Ghostbusters 2 in the system. Don't think Corporate gives a damn about PAL so there was no skew for it...Still a really nice label...
    I like it...
  • That's New Ghostbusters II, an entirely different game from Ghostbusters II and it's a PAL exclusive.
  • Yeah...that is what the web told me. Have not fired it up yet...but I thought it was worth it.
  • I LIKE DUCKS.
  • Nice find, I hate the Tacoma store imo. The 5 for 10 deal blows down there since they refuse to honor it on Retro games. The Kirkland store does it and both are owned by the same guy. Oh well atleast I got the Kirkland store under wraps I clean it out weekly!

    That is weird since Rob GM's them both. He is the one "running" the stores. Jay is just the owner. I will admit the store has gone down hill since Donna sold it. Oh, and since I stopped working there...
  • Ah, He called again saying he got 30 some more games in, and I have first dibs.
    Went in tonight and of course they were all commons I did not need...dissapointed I saw this sitting on the counter...

    Asked him how much he took it in for, come to find out the guy gave it to the store...and the store gave it to me. I remember seeing a thread about it, so now it is time to go do some research...
    I do know it is really early since it has a Stadium Events review and some other "upcoming games" that never released.
    Time to do some research....
