the best buy near me got a final shipment of them in for $4.99 two weekends ago...old stock's clearing out but that game's easy to find, especially used at EB.

Damn, I've been looking for that game. Can't seem to find it around . . . does that BB still have them in?

On a related subject, Ms. Pac Man Maze Madness (which is excellent) seems to be drying up as well. Best Buy had them for 9.99 for a while (and I got one for me and a few for people in my office) but they seem to be mostly gone. Its a very cool game and likely to be enjoyed by non-hardcore gamers because its so easy to pick up and play, and has nice graphics and music . . .

Greg/Bryce:

Need Mr Driller, go here:
http://www.swapusa.com/Records.asp?DataBase=DNDC

They have Marvel vs Capcom as well if you're willing to pay full price.

If you're into collecting new DC games, you should stock pile now since some games are getting rarer each game, I saw last 2 copies of Ms Pacman at Walmart and grabbed one right away as I thought I was going to miss that one.

$35 for Driller! I think they know what a scarce game they've got. <IMG SRC="smilies/eek.gif" border="0"> I'm glad I got that when it was $20.

I'd get it now... I've got a bad feeling that it could become another Klonoa: Door To Phantomile, if you know what I'm getting at.

LOL, Mr. Driller scarce, no offense guys, but just because your local stores don't seem to have a certain DC game, does not make it scarce, I live in one of the top 15 biggest city's in the USA, and even when the DC came out no stores here ever carried more than a couple games.

Plus no offense, but the "Is this DC game rare?" posts are getting annoying, why does it matter? If you can't seem to find the game, it means it either sucked or sold like shit and all the stocks sitting in boxes some where because the retailers couldnt move it.

No one here has Chefs Luv Shack, Is IT rare too? <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">

Well DKEx, we're just noting the retail situation around us. I just stopped by Best Buy Tonight, and they'd obviously been restocked bigtime (with a few titles). There were the following in quantity:

Crazy Taxi $9.99
Off Road Thunder $9.99
Max Steel $7.99
Demolition Racer: No Exit $9.99
NFS: V-Rally $9.99
MSR $9.99
Tons of sports games (mostly 9.99)
and quite a few more

Still, some games are getting much less common. Gauntlet Legends, San Francisco Rush: 2049, Hydro Thunder (still good prices on Ebay). For local retail these games are mostly gone, and of course Ebay prices tend to ramp up a bit for some of them.

BTW I just found 3 online stores with Driller on DC, price ranges were from 12.99 to 27.99. So get on google and look around if you can't find it.

Man, this is really pathetic, some of the DC games are among the best and all I hear is whining about the prices, do I hear people complain when a NG game costs 10 times as much? I have this game too and it's among the best 2D puzzles (Bust A Move 4 as a nother) out there, especially if you like Neo-Geo style puzzle. If it's too expensive, try this place
