OK the game for my birthday arrived. ITS THE ZELDA WII U CONSOLE.

Cant describe how happy i am by this. Was expecting a $30 game.
My wife is the best.

Heh, my wife did the same for me with the Original Wii a few years  back. I unexpectedly got the slick black Wii bundle with Wii Motion Plus and Wii Sports & Sports Resort. Our wives are awesome!

Very cool. I've been wanting an Wii U. But I really need to see a new original Zelda or original Metroid before I bite the bullet. I've gotten enough new Mario with my 3DS, for now.

I told her I did'nt want a PS4 or Xbone for Xmas because I want them to fix any bugs (at the moment the consoles are being rushed out to meet demand) or she would have got me one of them.
I cant wait for Mario Kart 8.

Finally found a decently priced loose copy of Wrecking Crew. It seems most people want $15 - $20 for it which I won't pay but got one a few days ago for $10 shipped which I can live with. Just got it today
Feels a little heavier than my other NES games, wonder if it's one of the ones that may have the famicom converter inside.

Finally got my CDX. I put it in layaway at a friend's pawn store in September. He told me as long as I made any payment at all, he would hold it as long as I wanted til it gets paid off. I would drop $5/10 at a time every 2 weeks or so and I just made the last payment today. Its so cool! I never thought I would actually own a CDX but Im pretty happy to have one now. Looks like I may be in the market for another line of games.

Dang, I subscribed just too late to get in on the first issue, and no Play-N-Trades in my area to get it off of the shelf from.

Damn you got Buster Douglas ? I really wish I could find me a complete copy. Im like 10 games from complete but Im not really moving all that fast to finish cause of it.

I backed it when the Kickstarter was still live. Got my name printed in the back and all that jazz. Looks like they have the first issue available for $8.50 shipped on their website.

Between that one and Jack Bros. I blew my game budget for at least the next three or four months. 

[soera]

Thats crazy but you done with both sms and vb now?

[dstone]

Yup. Although now I need another shelf. The SMS games have pushed a good chunk of my other games back into boxes.

Just ordered this awesome 3DS/DS game case from Club Nintendo! I got the Legend of Zelda set. Comes with 3 different covers (3DS, Zelda, & Mario). It should go along very nicely with my new 3DS XL.

I also got the new issue of Retro Gamer, number 123. Which I'm about to add to the database here. Tell me that cover doesn't draw you in:

For $100 with shipping, I received complete copies of:

SEGA GENESIS:
Altered Beast
Flashback: The Quest For Identity
NBA Jam
StarFlight
Super Hang-On
Sword Of Vermilion
Toxic Crusaders

Plus, other Sega Genesis games that came with the lot that I wasn't interested in.  Not a bad haul...
