RetroforceGO!'s Great Game Trading Thread of Justice!!



Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand welcome, to the unofficial game trading thread of RFGO! and Dtoid!!!!!

As you may have heard from listening to the show, I tend to find a lot of good gaming related stuff at the local Goodwill. Not everything I find I need, though, and sometimes I don't find stuff that I want. But, since I tend to pick things up that I know are of value regardless of whether or not I already have it, I have a few extra games laying about.

Now, what we're suggesting here is a place where people can trade the game they no longer want, have an extra of, or just plain don't need. This thread is not for the selling of games, but for the community to trade amongst themselves for things that they may want or need. Games (or even systems) may be traded back and forth for whatever the two parties agree on, and each party pays their own shipping when sending to keep it all on the level. I highly suggest that putting your personal information on the forums, such as addresses and phone numbers, is a bad idea. We have a PM system here that you can discuss those things on, or if you like, you can just post your own email and take it from there.

Also, no one wants your shitty copy of NES Golf. In fact, I don't even want my shitty copy of NES Golf, but I know it has absolutely no value other than as an interesting coaster for my beer. With that being said, try and only post what you know people may want. That way this thread won't get overloaded, and it will make it easier for people to find what they are looking for.

As an outline for an easy way to post here, I would suggest posting with what you have to trade, and then what you want to trade it for. Like mine right here:

I am desperately looking for a copy of Lufia (the first one) for the SNES. I am willing to trade any one of these games listed below for it.

Secret of Mana - SNES
Secret of Evermore - SNES
Super Metroid - SNES
Breath of Fire SNES
Final Fantasy II - SNES
Final Fantasy VII - PS1 - Greatest Hits version

See how easy that was! Now, I hope someone has what I'm looking for, but now everyone knows what games I have available for trade. That way someone who may not have what you need can also make an offer on the games posted.

I assuming that I have to say that we take no responsibility for any wrongdoing, but any abuse or shenanigans should immediately be forwarded to Technophile or CTZ.

But, for reals. I really want a copy of Lufia. Reach me at dyson@destructoid.com.

I would be willing to trade: (either, or both)
Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the chosen for the DS.
Street fighter alpha anthology PS2.

Awesome thread by the way, Dyson. Just what the forums need.

Damn great idea, Dyson!!! This is going to be really helpful.

Uniracers -- SNES (just the cartridge)
Gitaroo Man -- PS2 (like new)

Zelda II -- NES (like new, just the gold cart)

So, I'm a mad collector as some of you may know, I'm looking for quite a number of things that are rare, games from Enix, Working Designs, NIS, Atlus, etc. come to mind. Here is a list of SNES games, cartridge only I'm willing to trade if the right offer comes along:

- Secret of Mana
- The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
- Super Metroid
- Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
- Chrono Trigger
- The Legend of the Mystical Ninja

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Depending on how this thread goes, I may go make a list of the other "doubles" I own.

I got a Tetris 2 cartridge for the SNES that I broke on purpose because the game sucks.

For it I was Earthbound in the box, a Neo-Geo, and Mario's Picross.

Because I'm from Europe trading games will be quite hard. So I wish you all good luck finding those gems.

In the mean time I will keep an eye out for any of the games mentioned here. Sometimes you can find great US copies over here for almost nothing.

I have Magic Knight Rayearth complete for the Saturn in okay condition. It also comes with the stickers. The only thing of your list I need is Chrono Trigger (assuming it's for the SNES).

Hey Hydro, I have Metroid Fusion, but it's cart only. Would you still want it? I've been looking for SF Alpha Anthology.

I have a bunch of stuff, though I would mostly only be interested in trading it for modern games/equipment. With emulation handling everything through a PS1 easily, and a modded PS2, I'm capable of playing most games if I really want to. I'd love to be able to hold onto my old stuff, but I am poor as fuck, so might consider giving some of it up. Anyways I'll just post some of the better stuff I have to see if anyone cares anyways.

NES (nothing really rare or special, just a few good games):
3-4 NES decks, though only one actually works properly, others would be for those that like to fix them.
An NES Advantage with it's marginally beat up box.
Star Tropics
Strider
TMNT 3
Blaster Master
Bionic Commando
MC Kids

SNES: (Nothing in box/manual unless mentioned)
1 original SNES deck (did not yellow up on half of it)
ASCII Super Advantage
ASCII Fighter Pad
ASCII Stick Super L5 (Full in box I think...)
Game Genie
Seiken Densetsu 3 (Full in box + Japanese Player's Guide)
Chrono Trigger (+ beat up old Player's Guide)
Final Fantasy III (+ beat up old Player's Guide)
Secret of Mana
Super Metroid
Kirby Superstar
[s]Illusion of Gaia[/s] (Traded to ScottyG) [no strike through eh?]
Zelda: AltP
Saturday Night Slammasters
Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball (BEST BASEBALL GAME EVAR)

N64: (Nothing in box/manual unless mentioned)
Gold N64 Controller (Were only given out through a NP Mario Kart 64 contest)
Ogre Battle 64
Rocket: Robot on Wheels

Vagrant Story (disc only)
Grandia
Alundra
Chrono Cross
Jade Cocoon
Wild Arms 2
Castlevania: SotN (greatest hits)
Rising Zan: Samurai Gunman
Silent Bomber (holy shit this game is awesome)
Um Jammer Lammy
Silhouette Mirage (disc only, awesome Treasure game)

Sega Saturn:
Most of the Saturn games are lightly worn and are all actually my boyfriend's and not mine,
but I may be able to deal with them anyways.
A plain old Saturn with a couple normal controllers and some common games
Shining Force III
Shining the Holy Ark
Nights into Dreams + Christmas Nights into Dreams


GameCube (No games NOT in box/manual unless specified):
Ikaruga
Baten Kaitos
MGS: The Twin Snakes
Cubivore
Lost Kingdoms II
Skies of Arcadia: Legends
Tales of Symphonia
Killer 7
Viewtiful Joe

PS2:
A lot, not listing unless anyone is looking for specific PS2 games.

GB/GBA/DS (No games NOT in box/manual unless mentioned):
Original old boxy Gameboy.
Game Genie for old boxy Gameboy.
Link's Awakening
Riviera: The Promised Land
Gunstar Super Heroes
Metroid Fusion
Boktai
Yoshi's Island
Castlevania: CotM
Lunar Knights
Scourge: Hive

And I have a shitton of old PC games, though I doubt anyone here is interested in those.


Stuff I want:
[s]Hori Pad EX Turbo (360)[/s] (Traded for some PS2 stuffs with Calpis)
The Misadventures of Tron Bonne (PS1)
Ace Combat 6 (360)
[s]Samurai Warriors 2 (360)[/s] (Goozex'ed coz' it was cheap there now)

Wanted : Kingdom Hearts

Okay, I am desperately trying to find a copy of Kingdom Hearts (Original). I do not have a very large PS2 collection seeing as I just got it. Please! Someone help a brother out. I'm willing to trade :

-God of War II (Special 2 Disc Edition)((Comes with the Extra content disc))(((New condition, no box)))
-Dawn of Mana (New condition, no box)
-Mass Effect (I know, crazy right?)
-Resident Evil 4 GCN

I'm really hoping I can have the first successful trade of this thread. PM me to talk business. Also, if you're willing to trade the sequel, just let me know as I am looking for that too.

-----Edit-----
On a side note, I'm trying to build my collection of classic PS2 games and am more than willing to trade something that is worth slightly more in value. If you have any of the games that I am listing and are looking for a trade, then PM me and we can figure something out.

-Metal Gear Solid 2, 3
-Ico
-Okami
-Persona 3, 4
-Dragon Quest VIII
-Final Fantasy X

Pretty much everything that was great on the Playstation 2. Just let me know.

Hmmm, hopefully it's not too much trouble, but any chance you have a picture of the condition it's in and all? Don't mean to be a bother, but as I said, I'm a collector . . . =S And straight up trade, as I said, it is Chrono Trigger for SNES, but cartridge only.

PS1:

GameCube (listing for DC remakes and Cubivore):
Cubivore

GB/GBA (all these games have the full box and manual for some reason):
Link's Awakening
Boktai
Castlevania: CotM

I'm not really sure what stuff I want right now. Possibly a SFIV Pad (not stick) for 360 (or even better, that impossible to find Hori Pad for 360), though I'm waiting on the PC version of SF IV to see if it gets console crossplay, in which case I won't need to get it for 360.

Oh and I'm a Koei fanboy, looking for Samurai Warriors 2 and DW: Gundam 1 and 2 on 360.
My friend Wedge . . . we must make some deals here, lol. Any chance you've got a picture of the Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy III guides? And are they the Nintendo Power versions? Also, I'm quite interested about the Gold N64 Controller, and is Ogre Battle 64 in box? Okay, I'll just list the stuff in terms of priority I'd like them, and just tell me what you'd want in return. I know I only listed 6 SNES games, but if you're looking for X360 or Koei stuff, tell me what else besides Samurai Warriors 2, and Gundams you're looking for. If you've seen my blogs, I'm quite resourceful! ^_^

- Valkyrie Profile
- Alundra
- Cubivore
- Ogre Battle 64 (if in box)/Gold N64 Controller/Chrono Trigger Guide/Final Fantasy III Guide
- Everything else

I'll take a pic and email it to you this weekend. Email me at dyson@destructoid.com with the subject of GAME TRADE and I'll hit you back. It's okay that the CT is just a cartridge, too.

A lot of readers live in different countries other than the US. Don't think that you may not find people in your area/country that don't want to trade!

Honestly the thing I want most right now is a Hori Pad EX Turbo for 360. I didn't have a 360 when they were around so I never got one, and now they're impossible to find. Didn't everyone from RFG get one? Any of you guys not use it and want to trade it for anything I have? I need something to make games like N+ and The Dishwasher playable on that thing.
