    I just saw a bunch of good shaped NES games at goodwill with their manuals and everything, $2 each. Goodwill is the best place to hunt for rare games. Last week, a first model and Turbografx 16, both still in the box, for $15.

    @mrjoeyyaya: True. I have a Goodwill Computer store that's great. The mouse I'm using right now came from there, $8 :)

    If you're into older games, you have to check out [www.shopgoodwill.com] & Swag Bucks. You can get Nes (and any other system) games and consoles for free at the latter.

    At first I thought it was an actual nintendo, but it's just an emulator. That's...not exactly all that impressive. But I guess the majority of the internet gets blown minds in regards to nintendo cartridges ripped apart and turned into other stuff, so whatever.

    Also isn't the MB/Duck Hunt combo cartridge rare?

    The is EXACTLY what I've wanted ever since Netflix started streaming movies. I know we have a road ahead due to download rates, hard drive sizes, and overall game capacity, but I dream one day I'll be able to sit in front of my PS4/Xbox720/WiiThrii, and browse an enormous library of games, renting what I want for any number of predetermined days, and then purchasing the game outright for a slight discount if I want.

    @Pitchswitch: still, nothing beats buying a game and sitting with the manual in your hands while you put the disc in the drive. and that new manual smell. mmm...

    but again, it would be a nice way to try out a game, and then you could buy it if you wanted, either digital, or pay a little extra and get a boxed version. this could make demos obsolete. I think this is something Mr. Molyneux would agree with me on as a good thing!

    @Creampope: Actually I get no satisfaction out of "holding the manual" or "putting the disc in the drive". My satisfaction comes from the game itself. I don't need to put a cd in to appreciate my music when it comes out of my iPod.

    I want to play more games for as much money as I can. I'm not the kind of person that likes to line my bookshelf with games, dvds, cds, ect. I feel that's just a form of boasting. To me, the satisfaction comes from the experience not holding the physical medium.

    The idea of digital rentals, actually, sounds pretty good. I mean, it really depends on the price but paying a couple of £/$ to play the full version of a game for a few days of a game that your not quite sold on paying full price on is a nice idea.

    That and its real [On demand]. So much better than actually renting a game from a a rental store and you don't even have to go to the hassle of returning it.

    Obviously the idea has major drawbacks.

    - The rental price needs to be spot on. Its no good offering a 3 day rental for 1/4 the cost of the actual game.

    - I think a lot of publishers will shoot themselves in the foot. Majority of games can be completed in a day and people would actually be put off wanting to go out and buy the full thing.
