Exactly. The Dreamcast version of this game is good
Damn, so nobody else realized thats a Canadian ad? US prices were nowhere near that for Genesis games. The only SNES games that went to 70 bucks and above were the later ones with an extra chip in it. I believe a few were Super Mario RPG, Killer Instinct, Stunt Race FX, and a couple more.
Did you even try Rayman?I used to know where my parents kept the Christmas stuff. We were begging for a Playstation, so I knew we got that. But I looked in the closet and saw we got Ray-man with it.
Knowing games like ridge racer tekken and nba jam were out I'm like "fukk".
From that day on I dropped so many hints to my pops that I didn't want Ray-Man. Even went so far as to go to blockbuster with him and purposely point out Ray-Man as a shytty game I wouldn't want to play
In the end it he got the hint and must have took it back. We got tekken and ridge racer for Christmas
Breh that shyt was PIFF from day 1 for me....old school MS-DOS STATUS. I stopped by...entered the command and my friends were like
in school.
I paid $80 for the regular edition of SF2 on the SNES.
They were eating well charging $80 + Tax for nwo revenge on the N64 as well.
Well the N64 was a generation not represented in the posted ad. Yeah Street Fighter was expensive but i think it was Turbo that broke the bank, not the OG joint and so was Chrono Trigger. But i dont recall any Genesis games hitting Canadian prices like in the ad.
Its a Canadian ad.
Not that high, but definitely high.
I think that special edition for the Genesis might have hit $90 when people were on the SF2 crack phase.
Nah I still never tried the og rayman.Did you even try Rayman?

But ask a 10 year old boy if he wants cars, fighting, or a weird ass dude with no neck jumping around, and you know rayman would be the last choice.
My son is 5 now. Begged me to get Forza for him, I did, but guess what his most played game is. Rayman
I was the same age and I played rayman right away
Do you have project cars BTW? I might be the only guy here that has it.
I have it on PC. Couldn't really get into it, didn't think it was better than Forza, and don't really have time for two racing sims.I was the same age and I played rayman right away

Superman 64 was 89.99 back in the day 
True story. My first job was at krogers grocery store when I had turned 15 (they use to hire that young back then, this was around 96-97’)..i got a job as a cart collector/pusher (bring in all the carts in the parking lot)..right across the street was a blockbuster and back then, they use to keep the n64 and ps1 games in a plastic case with a yellow pop cap on the case that only the people behind the counter could pop to get the game out for the customer. I would walk across the street on my lunch break, take off my Kroger apron with my name tag then go in the store..i would casually walk around the store like I was looking to get something and then I would slowly head to the back where the games where, find a n64 game I wanted and then id walk around the store acting like im browsing but really using a small screw driver to pop off the seal, id take the game and then sit the empty box behind some movies on the opposite side of the store, walk out and go back to work..i did this about 15 times and never got caught..
It was a new nikka that started the job and I was training him how to push carts lol…I told him how I use to jack games from blockbuster and he didn’t believe me and wanted me to prove it so when our lunch hit I told him to follow me, I basically did it right in front of him and showed him how its done…the next day I was off but he was working, when I got to work the day after, someone told me that he got fired and I was like damn why? They said the nikka went to the blockbuster with his Kroger apron on with his big ass nametag showing and tried to steal a game, ran out the store with the whole damn blockbuster box and got chased by the blockbuster manager and tackled in the parking lot..krogers fired him and he got arrested…I was like hell nahhh but real talk the lil nikka never dimed me out lol..i stopped stealing after that.. lol

I started this gangsta sh-
I worked at EB Games for a few years.
When this happens it isnt because we dont know what game they mean or we necessarily believe the other game is better than the one she is looking for, its usually because we are specifically told by management these are the games we are pushing this month.
I got yelled at once when an old lady came in looking for a game for her 7-year old grandaughter and I didn't try and convince her to buy Tony Hawk Underground.
shyt is ridiculous. EB Games / Gamestop gives zero fukks about you as the consumer.We are told to break discs before throwing them away so that no one can ever get their hands on something we didn't make profit on, even if we delist it and no longer sell it. My job one day was to sit in the back room with a hammer and use the pry end to open regular Gameboy cartridges we were throwing away because we forgot to send them with the main box of stuff back to corporate to be destroyed.
I asked if I could buy them and my boss was like "They arent for sale"
I was like this is a waste... and he was like
"Don't get attached."
