I just got back from Best Buy where I picked up Midway Arcade Treasures and Robotech Battlecry for $5. I also got Nightshade for $15. I am interested in the game, and I had a decent time with Shinobi, but I've been reading a lot of negative reviews. Should I hang on to it, or try to trade it to my local FYE (where they have a used copy for $26, so I would think they'd give me $30)?
Best Buy trip and Nightshade question

Well, I'm not entirely sure what they do, but I brought in an unopened Beyond Good and Evil that was $5 and they gave me $13 for it. Though I think their used price was $12 or $13. But shouldn't they have given me much less then what they sell for used, like EB or Gamestop normally would?
[quote name='BIG5']Do they sell unopened trade-ins as new games? Because if not, they won't give you more than what they charge for a used copy.[/QUOTE]
But we all know how stupid FYE is and some games they will give more trade in credit for a used game than they are selling it for new. I got $14.99 for an opened Syphon Filter Omega Strain when it was selling for $12.99 new.
And there's also the case of Outrun 2 selling for $29.99 used and $19.99 new with the trade in value being $19.50

CAGiversary!
I believe they take new or used games as the trade-in price for the game in general. FYE will take your copy of a new game, and just sell it as used, putting it to used condition. EB, FYE, Wherehouse, or whatever will give you the same amount you'd get for a used game as the same amount for a new game.
