So I get a text this morning from my mom saying a package came with some video games in it so it must be yours.  I have not ordered anything or anything.  I told her I am not expecting anything but if its games I will go take a look at it.  I get there and the following two awesome bad boys were in the package complete in box!!    Looked at the back of the box and they were from MJMarran.  This is unbelievable.  I am so shocked and excited I do not know what to say.  Thanks MJMarran man.  This is amazing and this made my day!   


     

Wow, they're great games too! I'm still missing Partners in Time, but it's also very fun 

And I think I'll see if I can get a poster at my local gamestop too, it'd totally be awesome

Sweet! Lucky you for getting 2 posters :)

It's nice that they did a red case since it's Mario Kart and all, but am I the only one who thinks that this red color does not match at all with the Wii U's turquoise label? With Luigi U they at least changed the box art's label color to match the box.  :o

Woo! Mario Kart 8.  About to play my copy of it now.  I haven't' really played a Mario Kart game since Mario Kart 64 lol I think I played a little Mario Kart Double Dash once at a friends house, but that was mostly it.

You are on your own lol.  jk.  I actually enjoy the red case.  I think it matches Mario's close and the kart itself and is a great combination.

Yeah, it does look really mismatched, imo.

Just got Mario Kart 8! Pre-Ordered it from Gamestop so I got the poster with it.

Also bought Tomb Raider for PS3 via Gamefly. Had a $5 off coupon I used so I paid about $10 for it. I also downloaded "Photos with Mario" for 3DS. It's free so why not? Just need the AR cards now...

Added another obscure / quircky Wii game to my collection.

I sucked it up and went to Gamestop to get Cave Story 3D.  Unfortunately every Gamestop only had cartridges and no case/manual so I just took advantage of the cartridge while I could.  I also got the following pc games all brand new for 3.99 each

I found a few things yesterday afternoon.
Shadowgate 64
The Rocketeer NES
Xexyz NES
Ren & Stimpy: Stimpy's Invention Gensis
Steal Princess DS

My wife is big on Atlus games these days. She insisted on Steal Princess.

Then we stumbled into a pawn shop. They had a mini SNES for $20. I'll grab that I guess. I got to asking about other stuff and ended up getting a lot of NES controllers, guns, RF adapters, and power cords for $20. Not too shabby. You can't have too many power cords.

Picked up World Series Baseball featuring Deion Sanders for 32X. I'm now missing Blackthorne, Pitfall, and Spiderman.

Two more great 360 games for cheap. Now is the time to stock up on them!

[numing]

Nothing much this month :c I got Arcana Heart 3 for the ps3. Pretty fun but probably the last fighting game I buy and play for a while, as I've spent way too much time on them lately.

Also got yet another Tales of Xillia 2 poster signed by Hideo Baba. Not exactly a game but I am quite happy to have got that

I remember renting this one back when I first go a Wii and it was a cool game.

I sucked it up and went to Gamestop to get Cave Story 3D.  Unfortunately every Gamestop only had cartridges and no case/manual so I just took advantage of the cartridge while I could.  I also got the following pc games all brand new for 3.99 each 

       

It may be childhood nostalgia clouding my thoughts, but Extremely Goofy Skateboarding and Toy Story are two of my favorite PC games.  I still play through Extremely Goofy Skateboarding every once in a while, but Toy Story was thrown out a long time ago.
