September 2022 - Recently Added to Collection/Recently Purchased New

[bikingjahuty]

In a massive stroke of luck I have somehow been able to find 4 out of the 10 items on my Top 10 Most Wanted List in just the past 2-days.

Congrats on the pick-ups. The best piece of general collector's advice I've heard is "the time to buy is when you see it". I know the enteral debate that goes on, where you don't want to spend the money you weren't expecting to spend. But if that side of you wins the debate, you'll just regret it. You'll pass up on probably the best opportunity you're ever going to have and it'll only hurt worse down the road.

Die Hard Arcade is one of the best Saturn games, IMO. I still don't have Trilogy, and I'm not sure if I want it. It looks okay, I guess.

I feel like I spend so little on video games (especially retro) that when I do come across stuff I'm genuinely excited for, especially at a good price, I go for it. Given all the games and consoles I've bought over the past week equal about 2 months of my video game budget, I can justify it because in the past two months I've barely bought anything game related.

I totally agree about Die Hard Arcade. As for MK Trilogy it's on par with the PS1 port, although i think it looks better overall. Both are definitely better than the N64 version and also have more characters.

Time for latest pickups, Picked up a new game system, some games I pre-ordered about two years ago and some games that many would say are a waste of money.

AMIIBO
As always gotta pick up the latest Amiibo's.
- Steve & Alex

AMICO
These are "games" that I only bought as a piece of gaming History, There's a high chance the system will never be released but these might be weird collector's items or I'll have games if the Amico is released. Many would think these are a waste of money and your probably right. lol

Been a long while since I've participated in the collection threads, I don't really go out of my way to pick up stuff beyond new games, and with other hobbies and no space for displaying, it's not something I go out of my way for.  But I had some stuff to clear out, a guy I know has a new game store and was doing bonus trade in credit, and I got a sick deal, so picked up a handful of new and old things.

In my rambling state, I didn't realize my comment could be taken as a reference to MK3. I was actually referring to Die Hard Trilogy on the Saturn, which I am leaning more towards picking up now.

lol no problem. I haven't played Trilogy since the 90s when I played it for about an hour at a cousin's house. I barely remember it, but as far as Die Hard games go, Arcade was always my goto and the one I played the most.

What the heck... in the spirit of Flea, here is all of yesterday's take... (last couple of months, actually)

[redblaze57]

I found what I guess has become a fairly uncommon Switch game as in I haven't seen it on shelves for a couple of years. It was just there at a gamestop today and around the price it is online (so saved on not having to get it shipped out to me). Kinda had a "when am I going to see this again?" Moment.

-Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition

Perfect reason to still own a Wii U. Many of the Switch games retaining their value are dirt cheap on the Wii U, including this one.

I understand the sentiment, but the Definitive Edition for Nintendo Switch includes all of the DLC from both the Wii U and 3DS versions, new content of its own, and other minor updates. The original version for Wii U has less content which is probably a factor for its low market value.

Even if you paid for the DLC, it's still cheaper on Wii U, though. I have the DLC. Same goes for Super Mario Maker, Breath of the Wild, New Super Mario Bros. U, etc.

Not being portable is a loss, though. But for me personally, I like console gaming more anyways.
