Alright I got $60 to blow and I'm going to Wal Mart in a couple hours. What should I get?
I want something realivtively new. I was gonna get Dark Watch but alas it isn't out yet. I'm thinkin of getting Nanostray (if they have it) and Kirby. Give me some suggestions peeps.

You can try to PM this week's Best Buy ad in order to get Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory (xbox/ps2/ds) for $24.99. I believe the game came out April-ish, so it's not that old.

i would recommend pyschonauts and riviera like Vinny said, kirby is also a good choice. Cold winter is pretty good, especially for $20 for a game that came out 2 months ago.

Thanks for the suggestions.
SC:CT Got it
Meteos Looks boring
Riviera $30 for GBA game is steep, and I don't really care if it will become rare. ;)
Psychonauts Also looks boring.
Edit: I have Cold Winter, heh.

i would recommend Makai Kingdom but i doubt Wal-Mart would have it. Jade Empire is down to $30, if you haven't played it yet.
Riviera is a very fun game though, it was the first gba i bought for $30 in close to 2 years, and it was well worth it. That saying it is hard to find, so i bet you wouldn't find it at Wal-Mart. Pyschonauts plays like R&C without all the guns, I like R&C gameplay better, but pyschonauts pure humor can't be beat.

Makai Kingdom isn't out yet I thought.
Jade Empire Already got it. Wish I hadn't paid $50 for it, and I still haven't played it.
Splinter Cell :Chaos Theory Aready have it
MVP Baseball 2004 or 2005 Dont like baseball games
Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour Beat it
Keep up the suggestions!

well Makai Kingdom came out today so, if you have a gamer-heavy wal-mart (they probably don't exist) they may have it today.
Mario power tennis is great if you don't have it already. Klonoa 2 for GBA. In the Groove. Warioware: twisted is great fun. def Jam: Fight for new york if you don't have it.

Aw we've hit a slump. That Black Hawk down game was pretty fun from the demo I played, but I don't know if it's worth $50...
Colosseum: Road to Freedom also looks good, and it's Koei so that says a lot.
What abot Timesplitters Future Perfect? Has it hit 30 bux yet?

Atelier Iris is a pretty good RPG if your into SNES kinda RPGs. Guild Wars if you like pvp, I've heard good things about Killer 7 but i haven't played it personally. Astro Boy Omega Factor is a fantastic GBA game. Summer time is a real slow time for thoose "killer apps" that are worth paying full price I would take that 60 dolalrs and save it for this busy holiday season coming up

I thought he was asking for good games? :-) In any case, if you haven't already played it, I'd suggest picking up Growlanser Generations. It came out, I believe, earlier this year and is an awesome Strategy/RPG unlike any you've ever played. I know you can get the deluxe pack for Gamestop's for $59.99, which includes a watch, ring, soundtrack, deck of cards, and more. Really cool set for the price.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I ended up getting Kirby Canvas Curse. I thought the giftcard was around $58 bucks, but it was around $53. My dad spent the rest on XXX 2 :puke:
The Wal-Mart had Ninja Gaiden for $20. That seemed good, too bad I already have it.
