    Here's a tip about gamestop and getting Xenoblade or last story. If you go into one and ask for it and they don't have and they try to do a web in store order. They wont find it. They'll say "sorry out of luck!" But usually they can look up by store location if one has one. If you cause enough, "i really want this it's for my niece and she really wants" or whatever bull and ask if they can get another store to ship it. Then usually at least one store in the district or the surrounding districts will have one. They can call and ask if they can send it. Then you'll have to wait a few days for shipping but you'll only have to pay that preowned gamestop price. I just had to do this with both those games for a customer. I had to call two different stores to get them but we got them.

    I'd love to know how you can rationalize away the existence of mental illnesses when you yourself have one

    It took me almost a year to play Xenoblade Chronicles.

    I did a web search on their site, called them and asked about it, went in and asked about it, and pestered them until I was annoying even myself. They found me Last Story, but there isn't a store in the state that has the game - or one does and everyone I talked to was a liar.

    Kaycee find me Xenoblade and send it to me pls

    There's a few widely-beloved games I've played that just didn't jive with me, but I still appreciate having experienced what they did for gaming at the time.

    Play it, since it isn't nearly as rare as Xenoblade.

    Not buying Tekken 3 for PS1 when I saw it at EB Games for a cheap price a few years ago. I've bought Tekken 5 since then, and it includes the arcade versions of the first three games, which is close enough.

    I also kinda regret getting my PS2 so late (2008!), so I missed out on a lot of its big games. I've been working on my collection lately.

    Finally, losing my copy of Pokemon Pearl that I had sunk hundreds upon hundreds of hours into. :^(

    Why is Xenoblade so damn expensive?

    :monster:

    Because it's a great game and they didn't make enough copies to satisfy demand.

    That makes sense. I knew I should have gone with my gut and bought it because I thought that sword looked cool.
