Tales of Hearts R... because screw letting another Xenoblade happen. I was even given someone's pre-order. But only because they were supposed to have 2 in stock.

I don't think this will happen for one reason, it's a handheld. Handheld games, even really rare ones rarely fetch the kind of money they would if they were on a console. Still, I can see it maintaining its value for a while.

Had a decent delivery night the other night so I went and bought a personal weakness item : Bayonetta 2. Been fantasizing about playing this game for weeks. Im going to start it soon now.

That.

Plus, it's also available digitally.

Let me know if it lives up to the hype.  It's near the top of my short list.

It still contains the recipe of being mostly a collector's item among physical games. Niche title, unpopular platform, and low print run. Although, I will give you that handheld holds less value in the collecting world, typically. I'm trying to think of a handheld game that now exceeds retail value.

Went to spend the last of my credit at the game store, so I picked up two hardback strategy guides the guy was gonna put out, the Twilight Princess one still wrapped up! I really like the minimal style to them with just the Tri-Force symbol and design on the fronts.  Also I kinda noticed that Skyward Sword is half the size.  I wonder if that means Twilight Princess is twice as packed with content? I remember Skyward Sword lacking abit, but it's been too long since I played either.

Also grabbed two more DDR games to add some variety to my exercise routine, bringing me up to 4 games.  Not sure how many more are left to grab along with any PS1 releases.

And finally when I went to pay off my Smash Bros and Link Amiibo pre-order, I grabbed Motorstorm on PS3 for a buck, because it was a buck.



CRAP...I just realized I already had DDRMAX2.  I apparently read my VGcollect app wrong lol Noooo! 2 dollars wasted! Wasted I say!

I haven't been able to buy much in awhile, but did just snag Tales of Hearts R

Handheld or no, since GameStop controls the supply and distribution, they'll probably do what they did with Xenoblade and hold onto half the stock, then sell them later at a massive premium.

Got my copy of Tales of Hearts R in the mail. Also picked up some cheap PS3 games, Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage and Quantum Theory.

Just bought the original Far Cry and Far Cry 3 Deluxe for Steam for a bit less than six dollars. I traded some other stuff to get the cash so they basically only cost me a buck. :p

I gave in and ordered Dragon Age: Inquisition. Technically a pre-order, but it's out in 3 days and I'm playing the series on PC, so it's all digital anyway :p

Recently got ToeJam & Earl and Toki: Going Ape Spit for Genesis. Found a couple N64 game manuals as well!

(Halo: MCC also pictured)

I've heard great things about BioShock. Here's to hoping it lives up to the hype. I'm a big sci-fi fan, so it's right up my alley.

I've always been a sucker for super-hero games, since I'm a lifelong comic fan. And I've heard that Thor is one of the better ones, and done by Sega. Looking forward to it.

Brain Age 2 was only $1 at GameStop, so why not? I've never played a Brain Age game before, but from what I understand it's just a collection of fun little brain-teasers and puzzles.

And I needed a new handheld game, because I'm blowing through MechAssault: Phantom War in no time. Double Dragon was cheap, and who doesn't like Double Dragon?
