I took the bus for the mile and a half or so it takes to get to work this morning, because it is putting it down out there right now. (For once... oh wait, it supposedly rains here all the time, what am I thinking?) If it's still doing this in the evening, I'll probably take the bus back as well.

On the way in, there were some guys in the back of the bus, and one of them was talking about trying to do a speedrun on Eternal Darkness. I thought that was kind of an amusing conversation on which to eavesdrop.

Yeah, the store selling it LOVES overcharging. Before Disgaea got it's Greatest Hits release they were trying to charge 100 dollars for their last few copies of it. Then the GH landed and was being sold for 20 bucks so... yeah, they had to bring the price back down to something sane for a bit. Although they're charging 50ish for it now.

In the past I also saw them trying to sell things like FF1 for close to 100 bucks (it had a box! wow :P likely no instruction manual tho) and Chrono Trigger on the SNES for 150ish. (No box for that one. cartridge only.)

I'm probably going to look into the copies of the Atelier series I saw at a different store downtown. Used, but it's priced a bit more like a used game, so it'll depend on if it has a manual or not. Their copy of Atelier 3 that they had didn't have one unfortunately but I'll check out 1 and 2.
