Do You Need New Video Game Accessories?

Once in a blue moon you might have a video game accessory, gaming console or video game that breaks. It’s not often but it does happen. Most of you know that to replace a component is a pain because of the amount of money you have to spend on it. Kind of stupid considering what you probably paid for the entire system. You would think they would just replace the darn thing for free! For example, a brand new Xbox 360 controller could cost up to $40! Forty bucks?!

Well what if you could buy a controller for less? Chances are you would jump at it! What a lot of people end up doing is looking online at used video games, video game accessories, and used game console stores online. The cool thing about this and maybe the most important thing is that you can get a really nice quality item, and its going to cost MUCH cheaper than if you bought it brand new. These products are of high quality, most of them were simply returns that couldn't be re-sold in a big chain store because they are opened.

We know and we hate that rule! But now you can actually benefit from this rule! At www.Thumbmonkey.com you can find almost any used video game, video game accessories, and used game console you could possibly think of. It doesn't matter if it’s old or new, expensive or not, you can find them all! And when saving money, you could also buy another controller or a game as well!

Can I Really Find Cheap Quality Games Online?

I do believe that if you want to find anything that has the words “cheap” and “quality” - you truly can find it online! One of the things that most people look into when it comes to video game accessories, video games or consoles is to check a used gaming site. Now I know what your thinking you little gamer snob! "I couldn't possibly buy a used game!" Well what if I told you that these are top quality games? What if I told you I could buy two times as many items as these used gaming stores than you could at your big brand name store?

It's true! People all over the country use these used gaming sites because they know the incredible games and consoles they can buy! This is also the reason a lot of kids would actually shop at a used gaming store; great quality used video games, video game accessories and video game consoles, but cheap enough to where they can actually afford them!

Even with the way kids get paid nowadays for chores, it's still not usually enough to buy a brand new Xbox 360 console - but if you shopped at a store like Thumbmonkey, a store that offered used video games, video game accessories and video game consoles, you could very well get an Xbox 360 console with ALL the trimmings; games, controllers, you name it! Seriously, it's a really nice option to check out! At least see what they offer and how much you could end up saving!

Wii And Xbox And PlayStation, Oh My!

Oh my is right! Did you know that you can actually buy used video games, video game accessories, and consoles online? It's true! The only thing you will have to accept is that these are "used". By used this could mean one of a dozen things. Most likely though, the game or accessory was used by someone else that simply didn't like it or didn't want it anymore. I think we all know about the annoying rule about how if you open a game, you can't get your money back - all the big chain stores do this.

It's really unfair, but at the same time these are some of the games you could be buying online! Check out Thumbmonkey.com - they have all levels of "used" each of which should be labeled accordingly, such as; fair, good, excellent, INCREDIBLE! Fair probably means it comes without a case or a wire of some sort or maybe a booklet. Good means that it probably has all the cases and booklets, but maybe the graphic part of the disk, or the accessory has a few bangs and scratches on it.

Excellent means its pretty much like a brand new game or accessory, it might have one defect, but that's about it. Used video games that are labeled as incredible, are perfect. No scratches. No dents. Comes with all the pamphlets, the manuals, the cases, and anything else it should include. These are the ones where the owner simply didn't like or didn't want the item! Bad for them, good for us! I've bought quite a few used video games and video game accessories before.

It's just fun because while you go to a big chain store with $50 you might only be able to get ONE game. Whereas if you go to a used video games and video game accessories website online, you can take that $50 and spend it on three or four games - sometimes more! I've spent $50 before during Christmas for my little cousins, and I've gotten up to 10 games for $50. That is impressive my friends!

PSP Go - Epic Failure?

I don’t know what’s up with Sony, but it seems they like to see us suffer. On one hand they make these really cool gadgets and consuls but on the other hand they have serious control issues and they just won’t let us be!


Take a look at the beautiful new PSP Go. It’s a mean and lean machine – 16 percent lighter and 35 percent smaller than the PSP 3000. But it doesn’t have a UMD drive. So everything is saved on the internal memory (16GB) or on Sony’s own annoying Memory Shticks. Get it? If you’ve got a bunch UMDs you are stuck with your old PSP ‘cause there is no way you can transfer UMDs to the PSP Go.

Another thing that we absolutely hate (can you blame us?) is the fact that Sony's gone all Apple and you won’t be able to buy games from Thumbmonkey.com! Nope. You guys will have to feed the giant corporation, buying exclusively from Sony’s PlayStation Store. Now we’re not talking about the extra bucks you’re going to pay. Oh no. We’re talking about the freedom of choice America! Plus, download speeds are a pain, at least an hour if not two, all thanks to Sony’s limited 802.11b connectivity.



And it costs around $250. Huh? 250 dollars??? You have any idea how many games you can get for your PSP 3000 with that kind of money? hmmm... Lets see... If a game at www.Thumbmonkey.com will cost you around 10 bucks... then 10 times... no it's actually 250 divided by... Well... It's a lot of games all right!
