Hey guys. Today I hit up a local Gamestop hoping to take advantage of their 4 for $40 deals. However, it just didn’t work out. Rune Factory 3 and Rune Factory 5 on Switch caught my eye. Red Dead Redemption I was almost sold on because I want to play it. Unfortunately, it was missing the case art. I figured I could get it somewhere else with the art. Resident Evil 4 Remake was so tempting but I still haven’t gotten the Series X so it was be a little preemptive to buy it now.

But what I really wanted was Star Wars Bounty Hunter. I’ve always wanted this game, even back in the day. But I am obsessed with Mando and Baby Yoda, so it felt like I really needed to pull the trigger here. When I got to the front, the employee informed me that two versions of the game were traded in and I could pick out the one I wanted.

They had the limited edition cover art. That version of the game had the manual! That felt like a huge win! All in all, I’m disappointed I couldn’t take advantage of the 4 for $40. We’re doing a family day Saturday and I didn’t want to burn money on games I wasn’t ready to dive in to.

This was my first time in a Gamestop in probably a year or so. I was “impressed” with their selection. It wasn’t great, but it wasn’t awful either. Pokemon Red was listed under pricecharting. Alundra 2 and King’s Field were also listed pretty well. But their new selection was depressing. Their Xbox games were barren. The Switch 2 games were mostly new, so none we’re eligible for the deal. Most Switch 1 and PS4 games were over the $19.99 threshold.

Have you bought any retro games from Gamestop? Let me know down below! Thank you for reading. Have a great day!
