True story
I put my name on N64 carts as a kid because I'd bring them over for huge sleepovers a lot.

Well, after the 10th time, some went missing.

The kid I slept over with called me to come over the NEXT FUCKING DAY because he got new games. They were mine.

He kept fucking tell me they weren't mine.

Before I left I was able to turn them over. My name was fucking on them. He told me he wrote it like that because I gave him the idea.

We were both 8.

I believed him.

yeah how much did he had to pay?

>I believed him.

I put my name on my carts because my brother would always take them. I would also put stickers on the shells or whatever its called for my game boy games because my brother would lose his and take mine so I could be like >NO THIS IS MINE MY NAME IS ON IT!

It's really easy to wash off permanent marker.
Stickers, now... FUCK price stickers.

>>3164820
just use some rubbing alchohol

I have more luck with getting stickers off than I do with marker usually.

Should I call DK Video and demand a ransom to get their game back?

>>3164820
If you place your tongue on the price tag you should be able to easily remove it after about 30 seconds.

What about on game boxes though?

>>3164635
A little bit of Brasso, a soft bristle toothbrush lightly dunked in alcohol and a little bit of scrubbing gets most marker stains out

Fuck you Taylor.
Fuck you Jarrod.
Fuck you Benjamin.

Get a label maker you dweebs.

You guys know you can easily get the marker writing off those carts right?

>>3164968
Something that can be easily peeled off completely defeats the purpose of writing your name on them.

>>3164867
The fuck?

My local video game reseller has SOMEHOW stayed in business all these years. The only sucky things are they only sell, like, PS2 and newer games, but still sell the retro consoles if they have them on hand. I brought up once how it's crazy how the retro market has turned around and the dude got all huffy and was like "Yeah, not really". Probably because he sold off all their NES, SNES, Sega, N64, etc shit for pennies on the dollar like a decade ago

>>3164867
>Mario Party 3 for $11
>Pic is from 2015

What alternate universe is this?

>>3166008
one where the games are cheap and price gouching never existed

>>3165998
i knew a guy who was selling shit cheap up until about 2013-2014

he just didn't have it in him anymore and sold off everything he had gamewise and moved to florida. i been going to that guy since 1997, started game hunting around 1996. rip gameguy, your deals were legendary

>>3165998
>fat dirty reseller scum refuses to find real work
of course he stayed in business; the piece of shit would never get a real job

>>3166008
How much does Mario Part 3 go for? It was by far the worst N64 Mario Party.

>>3166008
Dude, no. That picture is ancient. It's at LEAST 10 years old.

>>3164820

magic eraser works good on permanent marker.

but you'll probably need to use contact cleaner or brasso or some sht to make the cart work.

>>3166008
2015 is when I posted it on another site, I don't know what date it was taken. I couldn't find it locally so I went there and downloaded it again.

>>3166261
Like $50-$60.

>>3166145
...... What part of my post didn't you read exactly? I literally said he doesn't scam shit because he doesn't fuck with retro games anymore. Only PS2 or newer. Did you read up to "My local video game reseller" and decide to just shitpost?

Japanese kids also did this but at least they were polite enough to only write on the back label. Anyone care to translate? I read Yuchi & Yoshuki I think but the others have kanji.

When i was in elementary school my local video store was on its way out. they were selling complete snes/genesis/ps1/n64 games for a few dollars each. once a week after work my dad would stop in there and bring me a new game. its how i have most of my retro collection to this day. sadly, the boxes were thrown out during a move in the early 2000's. still one of my biggest regrets. still have all the manuals though.

>>3164716
>I believed him.

Jesus fucking Christ anon. What games were they?

>>3168059
It's weird how little you think about the packaging at the time of purchase, or even down the line when space and time is a factor. A friend of mine's mom always kept the boxes for every console, box set game, et cetera and I never understood why until I got older and realized "Oh shit, all his childhood memories are pristine"

>>3170562
But that's still buying used games, retard.

>tfw parents made me carve my name in my carts with a knife

>>3172434
My dad did the same thing, only he carved HIS name into all the games, and judging from this thread he was right to be afraid of my games getting jacked.

Nice logic, are you still 8?

>>3172502
Um, no. I'm 100% sure I would NOT believe someone if they said they put MY name on something because I gave them the idea. How fucking stupid are you?
