I must say, it was quite nice to be able to take some of the games I haven't been playing for ages and get money for them to buy other games.

EB Games/Gamestop has a deal right now where it's an extra 10% credit for 3 games, 20% for 4, and 30% for 5, plus 10% if you are a member ($15, and also gives you 10% off on used games, and a subscription to their gaming magazine).  The special deal goes till the 9th I think, so I went to take advantage of it.  I brought 13 games from Wii, Gamecube, and GB Advanced, traded in 12 (one game was only worth $1.35, so I thought I'd keep it), and got enough credit to buy 3 used games and 1 new game that I wanted (One's a gift) with a $9 balance left over to pay.  Just in the exchange, I payed for my membership, and I'm never afraid to buy a used game from them, as I've had good luck with it.

So, if you've got some old games, I highly recomend it. 

Yeah.  I picked up SSX: Blur (Been looking for it since I rented it, cool game), as well as Marvel: Ultimate Aliance, and Super Mario Galaxy, as well as a present for my stepson (Got that used because you can't find it new anywhere).

Ages ago, I bought a friend's Gameboy (old black&white version) for $15 with all his games, and ended up trading them in to Funcoland (Now Gamestop/EB Games) for $265, and getting a PSX, an extra controler, and a few games (FFVII specificly).

All and all, not a bad way to go.

I want a DS though... almost got that instead...
