I guess the coding says something about PSX. But that's all I could find out about it. Either way, I am just one of those that never liked the term, since it never made sense to me.

Went to a used game store for the first time in a while, and walked out w/ this stuff! I've been wanting Yoshi's Island for a long time and finally found a reasonable price locally. And they had a deal going, so I snagged Power Rangers and Timon and Pumbaa's Jungle games! Funny, I played the hell out of the PC version of Timon and Pumbaa. But I can't get it to work on my PC for some reason or another. Found it had this SNES release today and had to snag it.

Damn, there's an SNES version of Timon and Pumbaa?! I played the hell out of the PC version too! Now I really have to get it on the SNES  :D

May was a good month for Nintendo games for me up till now, with 7 DS games and 3 Wii games! EB Games is having price drops on a lot of DS and Wii games, I got many good ones for 1 to 3$ a piece, some being brand new. I'm lurking every EB Games I can find this week. With this I just hit the 50 DS games mark, and the 250 overall mark!  ;D

OT, but I felt the same way as Scott.

Picked up a nice, foam, hard PSP carrying case @ a yard sale for $1.50 & a set of component cables (to output your PSP's video to your tv screen) for another quarter.

I'll add em to the Pay it Forward thread since I have a 3000 (and cables already) & this is for the 2000 models.

*pops out of nowhere*

Been taking a break of the whole gaming community (though I have been hanging around in regards to the whole Xbox One fiasco), but I'm back now maybe. Sometimes we need to do stuff like that :P

This also happens to be the first time I get anything in quite a few weeks... so good timing to get back. Last friday I got Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D, which anyone with a 3DS should get. And today I got an Ouya, which kinda sucks so far but is more okay-ish than I was expecting.

this is exactly what i expected. the ouya is a pretty but over hyped piece of hardware that wont get much use after one or two weeks unless you are a die hard android or a hacker

Welcome back!

As for DKC Returns, it's on my wishlist. I hope to get it soon, so looking forward to playing it with the original DKC controls.

Before it came out I saw rumors of the controls being pretty much crippled, but I'm happy to say that's not the case. Just make sure to switch the movement controls from the slide pad to the d-pad, and it's fairly solid. Just takes a couple levels to get used to using the shoulder buttons to roll.

I found a bunch of shit this weekend.  And when I say shit, I bought a box of games I will never play.  I can't complain too much though.  I bought a $20 box of games that had about 10 CIB Genesis, 5 PS2, and 5 GameCube games.  Mario Sunshine was in the box, so I grabbed it.

On the upside, I grabbed Donkey Kong Country for the 3DS too.  I love it so far.
