Ready to Get Your (Video) Game On?
Check out this exciting list of used video games that we’ve had for sale in our Edmonton Pawn Shop!
1. Far Cry Primal
Like Primal’s previous video games, Far Cry Primal allows you to explore vast and imaginative worlds in any way you look. Set to release in February of 2016, Far Cry Primal is a bit of a new – well, actually old – take on the previous Primal games. Indeed, there are no modern weapons or vehicles in Far Cry Primal. Instead, you play the role of beast-master and prehistoric survivor, getting in touch with nature and learning how to use primitive tools in order to brave the elements and fight off predators and enemies.
2. The Legend of Zelda Wii U
Zelda Wii U is one of the most anticipated video games of 2016, even though gamers know so little about it. We know that it’s set in a vibrant, lush world, and Zelda’s classic bow and arrow seems to have gotten something of an upgrade. Other than that, we’re in the dark! The mystery surrounding this game has made it one of the most anticipated of 2016.
3. Street Fighter 5
The classic fighter game underwent a transformation in 2008 with Street Fighter 4. Street Fighter 5 promises to be no less exciting than its prequel, with new moves and new designs. Get ready to kick (and punch and generally demolish) the competition in the newest game of the Street Fighter series.
4. Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam
Anyone over the age of – well, never mind – remembers playing Mario and Luigi games until their eyes practically bled. Well, this addition to our list of popular used video games is no exception!
These early Nintendo games are still some of the best, most creative and most addictive games ever created. With 2016’s Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, the old boys are back at it again. In this RPG game, both Mario role-playing universes (Paper Mario and the Mario & Luigi games) are combined for some old (yet new) school action! Definitely a game to watch out for in 2016.
5. Shovel Knight
Shovel Knight is an indie game that was completely crowdfunded. In other words, gamers wanted this game so badly that they actually helped pay for its creation! The most unique part of this game is that, unlike the majority of modern games, the visuals of this game are not hyper-realistic but rather combine old and new animation styles for a look that is at once retro and intricate. This game is smart, witty, and action-packed, and has a complete unique soundtrack that is reminiscent of the video games of the 80’s. Shovel Knight is set to release on consoles in November. Get ready for some retro fun!
These are just five of the most fun and popular video games of 2016 that we’ve seen come through our pawn shop, but there are many more new and exciting games that gamers love, too.
Whatever your video gaming console preference is, there is sure to be a game for you at our shop, as there are many new exciting used video games sure to be on our shelves soon.
