Hey kids,
Seeing that many of you are game collectors from another thread where everyone's comparing lists, this may not be the best place to ask, but I'm trying to get rid of some old and duplicate games I've been keeping and know I will never go back to them again.
Of course I could go to Ebay or drop them off at a store, but we all know that I get ripped off and the customer gets ripped off because they're businesses. I'm looking to sell them at fair prices that will hopefully benefit both me and the potential gamers. Any suggestions?
Also, I have some old ass Genesis/MegaDrive games (I think some are bootleg) that I may as well give away. I'm tempted to just throw them in the trash, but thought maybe a collector would appreciate them.

If you're looking to do it all locally, try using Craigslist.

Run them over with your car. It's awesome. Ok maybe not, but I have done that with sports games, wee no more Madden 95!

Sell as much as you can to people you know and Ebay, and donate the rest to places like CHKD (Childrens Hospital King's Daughters) thriftstores, Salvation Army, and Goodwill. I donate from time to time.

I was in the hospital last November and let me tell you I heated it up in smash brother for n64 with this kid I had to share a room with. It was insane. It made what I thought would be the worst memory into a memory i will cherish. We also played mario golf, and I showed him my master skill at Zelda: OoT. Man that was some good fun right there.

Hey, thanks kids for all the suggestions. And no I will not run them over with my car, that might break my car apart instead.
I'll compile a list and post it on here first, since Disco "Freebie King" Kurt (KIDDING!) asked for it. Seriously, I really don't care for the bootlegs, I'm actually ashamed that I own them, but I was poor then, so hmmm. Kurt, aren't you local anyways? I'm in NY.
Just off the top of my head, these are the ones I can think of:
-There is one where you're this knight guy and you can change into a mermaid and grow wings by collecting special power-ups.
-There is this other one where you collect different rings of fire, water, etc and you can mix and match for the prettiest combination and kill enemies with firebolts or some earthwater bullshit.
-Oh, there is bootleg Contra, it's actually a bootleg copy of what I call bootleg Contra. You are GIJoe collecting power-ups for your gun, etc. I just remember in this game, if you want to turn and shoot behind you, you would have to press the B button instead of the D-pad.
Yea come up with the titles for those, you Hardcore Gamers!

Kurt, aren't you local anyways? I'm in NY. Yup, I'm in north NJ. I head into Manhattan pretty often, actually. -There is this other one where you collect different rings of fire, water, etc and you can mix and match for the prettiest combination and kill enemies with firebolts or some earthwater bullshit. Jewel Master? (side scroller) Elemental Master? (overhead shmup) That's the only one that sounds remotely familiar. There's this weird Korean Mega Drive multicart at the Digital Press store. It looks interesting but it's $45 and I can't read a damn bit of Korean, so I have no idea what's on it (and the cover doesn't say much either.). I guess Joe never tested it either because he didn't know.

Sounds like Saint Sword

Wow, you guys are good. I just found the images online and yes, those are the games. I don't even have a MegaDrive anymore so it's not like I can try out those games...
I have very little time this week, so I'll complie a list later.
Hey Kurt, when you're in the city, give me a holla. Are you telling me I would be able sell my bootlegs at the store you mentioned? Oh, but the shame!!!
