Gunblade NY and L.A. Machineguns (Wii)
Rent It What’s It All About: Gunblade N.Y. and L.A. Machineguns aren’t titles I’d ever name if asked for a list of favorites, but when I read the names in the announcement for their re-release on the Wii, memories came flooding back of spending plenty of time and money with them at the arcade.

I have a Wii game I got for Christmas that I’d like to trade in for a different Wii game. The game I have has never been played, however there is a somewhat large tear in the shrinkwrap (6-year-olds mess stuff up when they get mad over stupid things). I’d like to trade it in for a game that should be of equal value new. Should I be able to?

I want to trade in some games and stuff so I can raise money for a PSP GO! Does anyone know how much money gamestop would give me if I trade in Final Fantasy Dissidia?

I really want to buy more games for my nintendo wii since i don’t really use my DS anymore, and i was wondering how much money gamestop would give me for a regular nintendo ds in good condition?

P.S- and how much can i get if i sold a DS game at gamespot?
