There is an independent video store here that is stocked with SNES, Genesis, NES, Sega CD, SMS, and N64 games, but the owner wont sell anything. All the boxes are right there on the shelf. She says she rents out at least 50 SNES games on a weekend, so I guess I can't blame her... Why do other people have to like old games. I should be getting her stuff for cheap.

Wow, rents out 50 SNES games? where do you live?

Rent them and tell them you lost 'em. Then they have to sell whatever games you want.

A local store cahin around heres has NES toploader on display. All three stores have one and one store has a price tag on it for 40. I asked to buy it and they said it was display only. They got it hooked up and it's there to test games on.

People rent SNES games? Seems a bit crazy to me. Unless she rents them dirt cheap or they're all rare titles or something.

If it was the really rare/expensive ones (Earthbound, Super Mario RPG, Chrono, etc, etc), I'm sure they would not have them to rent for very long. ;-)

Renting SNES games? Well, it is North Dakota after all. :wink:

starman9000 lives in North Dakota, I forget which city though.

ND is a big place though..

He is in MPLS now, no longer in ND I think he wrote this before he moved.

he's my hosehead brother.

Yeah, that post was from Grand Forks. There is a Mom and Pop place their that had some great old games.

BTW how does a post get its first reply after over a year?

I just figured it needed time to fester, and get some of the stench off of it.

LOL, I didn't even realize that!

Man, I want to go back to ND.

Didn't notice that either.

I went to a local video shop in town and was able to score a mint and complete copy of Suikoden 2 for around $25.

I also bought more than 70 Dreamcast games off the guy for about $100, but had to take them back because the guy used a disc doctor on them and they wouldn't anymore. Those were some awesome games in that lot, too.

Does that place have any rare titles?

Well now this thread makes sense. A year ago SNES games were what everyone was playing...

Isn't there more cattle than people in North Dakota?...:wink:

I don't believe so, in the eastern part of the the state there are actually very, very few cattle. Out west there is far more but with the last 8 years of drought herds have been thined substantially.

I know a Blockbuster that STILL rents out old SNES, Genesis, and even a couple NES games.
