Quite a few games are published with English/French/Spanish on the back and in the manual. Most (all?) Nintendo first party titles, for example. I believe EA has a similar practice, at least with the FIFA series.

HubbaGames @ Amazon has this for $21.53 with free shipping on orders over $25.00 http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B001HB7K6I/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&qid=1281487481&sr=8-1&condition=new Appears to have quite a few at that price.

Not sure if this is news or not, thought I'd report. Hit up three Targets yesterday and had a good haul, went back to one location today and noticed that the formerly barren clearance rack had been replenished to capacity. Went to a second location and found that it too had been replenished with...

The record probably isn't. Most records sold in the US today are pressed in the US; vinyl production is more nuanced than digital production (which either works or doesn't) and therefore less commoditized (i.e. it isn't conducive to cheap mass production overseas). A record is much heavier than...

I don't even bother going into Gamestops anymore, I just check the dumpster. Found a stack of 50ish guides once...and they were next to the dumpster, not in it. No diving + free guides = :D

Quick confirmation, Game Crazy stores in Southern California received fightpads and TE sticks late last week. Worth a phone call at the very least.

To the DUDE IN CHARGE: Mario Kart (Wii) dropped at Blockbuster back in Nov/Dec. Big props for maintaining the list!

I was there today and told that the guides had been trashed two days ago. The dumpsters were really full so I couldn't dig through. The Pomona store on Arrow has a couple Rise of the Argonauts and, iirc, Farcry 2. Not positive on the latter.

Be sure to check dumpsters. Two stores I hit today had TONS of guides in their dumpsters. The first dumpster find had been destroyed (heartbreaking :(((((((), but the second find was a gold mine. The guides were piled neatly beside the dumpster so I was able to avoid going through THE NASTIES.

GameTZ, no question. Good luck obtaining a copy of Dragon Warrior VII through Goozex.

The second post in this thread has a comprehensive list of what guides have been pennied where and when. One stop shop!

Full price, iirc. I checked in November, don't think CC has had a drop since.

Scored two copies of the Mario Kart guide, thanks OP!

Up.

Bought a lot on THE BAY a few months ago and am just getting around to documenting everything. Quite a bit here! * Conditions vary. Most items are in good shape, but if you're particularly concerned about a manual/insert, please ask and I'll double check. I do know that at least a few manuals...
