i dont get up early enough for flea markets. there used to be a place on Kildaire that was called "trade your games" but they closed down, apparantly. So I am looking for another place.

no there's a guy or two at the flea market who sell tons of these games...it's not a stand like the gypsies have

one guy has a store and sells a good range of all systems...he's got a lot of games...he's inside the old main part of the fairgrounds...in the big white building with the red roof...he also sells dvd, vhs and cd's

i think the other guy is in the store strip near the back...where the biscuit place is

Go to ummm I think its called play n trade in Garner near the new Theater at White Oak shopping center. Not only can you buy games there but you can buy this system that will allow you to play the old games. The 8bit system is like 30 bucks. For 8bit and 16 bit I think it was like 50 bucks. Games are $1 to $2. I was playing some old school Super Mario 3. I was amazed at how much I could still remember about that game and where to find the whistles

marko is talking about the place where I was thinking of

1/2/2007 9:49:34 PM

That Play N Trade has a few things - not the best selection. I was in there last Friday and they had maybe 20 N64 games, 30 SNES games. I was in Ed McKay's last Thursday and their selection was about the same, but still an interesting store.

I was also thinking of hitting up the fairgrounds this weekend.

DUDE ... I got fucking ROUTED by the computer on hard the first time I played ice hockey again ... like ... destroyed.

DeputyDog's talking about the place I mentioned. They have a whole lot of systems, new and old, out on display, and you can play any game in the store on it. They're really chill.

There will be a copy of Metal Gear at the flea market every weekend, without fail.

1/4/2007 12:21:09 AM

There's a GameCrazy in Apex that has a lot of PS1 and N64 games. EB/GS no longer take trade-ins on older games, so most of those stores won't have anything. As mentioned, Ed McKay is also a good choice.

1/4/2007 12:46:51 AM

Ebay
EB Games
Any other store that starts with "eb"

1/4/2007 7:25:33 AM

Damn, PS1 classifies are retro?

I was expected SNES or earlier.
