I have heard some Walmarts are selling off DC titles at $9.00 a pop. Not mine though.
BUT Best Buy was selling Jet Grind Radio for $24. Not sure if it was a mistake cause everything else was normally priced.

Yeah, mine was definitely no longer promoting DC games (had them in a little box at the bottom of the display case) but they hadn't bothered to update the prices. A super K-Mart up the street was doing the same thing.

Stores around here have never Supported Dreamcast since it has been out, except for Shopko. Walmart and Kmart, get games in late, and put them in a alittle hole in the bottom!

I don't care if I need a ladder to reach them or if they keep them under the counter rubbin up against the fat-a$$ cashiers gut. Some Walmarts are apparently selling MDK2 for nine freaking dollars! Where can I get some of that love!!!

Did you guys see the story about Sega suing K-Mart for not paying for the systems they sold them. That according to the news is the reason K-Mart pulled the plug on the DC Sega said no more for you till you pay the bill.

Despite the fact that I already owned a PS2... my Wal Mart was selling off a few of its DC games at anywhere from FIVE to nine dollars... that and the fact that later models of dreamcast are being sold with the 12 pack of genesis greatest hits games made this a must buy for me

Just a reminder to all y'all with insane k-mart/wal-marts: you can resell most of these games online for far more than they're selling 'em...

If any of you live near the Canadian border I would suggest searching out a Zellers or a WalMart up here.
I have picked up about 15 games recently with Zellers selling off almost all (95%) of their Dreamcast software at $19.99 ($13 US) including MDK2, Sonic Adventure and Hydro Thunder.
WalMart was selling some stuff off at $9.00 CDN ($6 US) and I bought Centipede, Chu-Chu Rocket (awesome party game, btw) and Gauntlet Legends.
And keep your eyes peeled for another Best Buy sale, at the last Byu 1 get $5 off, Buy 2 get $15 off I picked up 25 games for $75. Then sold most of 'em off and bought a PS2 and a Dreamcast.
[brag]
Net costs to me:
PS2 - $43 (CDN)
Dreamcast - $9 (CDN)
