Just picked up Sonic Blast Man 2 for super famicom today

Nice!  I have great memories of playing the original on SNES.  Not the best beat em up, but it was so over the top and absurd that i couldn't help but love it.  Great soundtrack too!

Just watched Jared's video today? lol

If so I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of picking that game up after watching the review

Yes... but to be fair, I had heard of it before and almost bought it a while back. Kinda just forgot about it and that video reminded me, lol.

Picked up Fable: The Lost Chapters for the Xbox today from Goodwill, $2.  Anyone know if this is some kind of add-on content or is it the original game + extra stuff?

If I remember correctly, it's the original + extra. It's the version that came out on PC as well.

You are correcto my friend Bob.  Lost Chapters is the first one with extra content.

Nice, works for me!    It's in great shape too, was a good find by my Goodwill's standards.

I recently purchased NARC for NES(CiB!), WWF Raw for XBox and WWF Wrestlemania The Arcade Game for Saturn!
I also just downloaded NES Remix 2 for Wii U!

My mom and I went to the US  to get her driver's license renewed and on the way back we went to the local Toys'R'Us to get a gift for my nephew, who turns one year old on Sunday. (His father, my brother, turns 40 on Saturday. Go figure.)

Half the damn store was on clearance. I hit the game section and lots of things were on sale - and of course, since I'm not a modern console gamer like most everyone here, I couldn't really get much - but I did find Rock Band: Metal Track Pack for $2 after clearance discount. It says it's used so I hope it's not -too- scratched.

I also saw a pretty good PS3 headset that also works on PC for $24 (60% off). I'll be going back tomorrow to pick one up for myself and one for a buddy.

Nice, NARC is certainly an interesting game for the NES when you look at the "children's games" rep Nintendo has now.

Drug dealers, hypodermic needles, exploding people into pieces. Etc.

Great game for it's time. It was one of my first pickups.

Didn't know there was a NES Remix 2! Seeing videos of the first one almost made me want to buy a WiiU.

Just bought Metroid for FDS and Gun Nac for Famicom.

So, this happened yesterday.  I couldn't get away from work yesterday, so my wife went to pick this stuff up.  Craigslist deals still exist!  Dude kind of knew he had something, but "didn't know how to work ebay".  His loss is my game... er... I mean gain.

We did the video late last night.  This was actually the first time I'd looked through the stuff.  You get to enjoy it with me.

It's a little long, but it's worth it.

Absolute crap day at the yard sales today - got nothing at all from them except a .25 book about ancient China for my wife.

Would have been a complete waste of a morning if I hadn't thought about the clearance sale at TRU someone mentioned here yesterday.  I had been to the sale when it first started, but thought I'd swing back by to see if anything new had gone up or if the prices had dropped further.  That was a "yes" to both!    Got these - I snagged the last copy they had of each one:

All for PS3:

Driver: San Francisco - $12
Warhammer 40k: Space Marine - $6
Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock - $4 (got this mainly because it came with a free Soundgarden greatest hits cd )
Skyrim: Legendary Ed. - $16

Skyrim was the biggie for me, I've been looking for a good deal on it.  Played & beat it on PC but wanted it for PS3 for my collection, plus I may play through it again for trophies.
