Over the weekend, I found some great goodies. I picked up DDR Max, DDR Max 2 and Dance Dance Revolution Extreme 2. Thinking about playing DDR a while ago reminded me of how much I loved the games growing up and I decided I needed to put some of the games back into ye olde collection.
I found a copy of Final Fantasy XIV for the PS3. ...yay? It was the same price as an expensive coffee drink, so at least there's that. I doubt I'll play this one because I don't like MMOs but I do like having all of the numbered Final Fantasy games.
I also found a copy of game called Mystic Heroes. I want to get my partner to start playing games with me and this seemed like mindless fun for the both of us.
My Dreamcast got some major love. I found both Shenmue and Grandia II for crazy cheap prices -AND- with all of the contents -AND- in lovely condition. I've played Grandia II on the PlayStation 2, but the version on the Dreamcast is much better. When the time comes for me to replay it, I'll be playing the Dreamcast version. Shenmue I'm even more excited about because I never got a chance to play it before and, even today, the main character is drop-dead handsome.
If the Dreamcast games were competing in an Olympic sport, they would have earned the silver medal. The gold medalists were amazing, complete and super awesome copies of two Super Famicom games. The first was Far East of Eden Zero. This is a game that I've known about for over a decade, but never thought in a million years I would find a copy of it. The bad news? It won't fit into the Retron 5. I'm not mad about it because I'll find out some way to play the game at some point. The biggest find over the weekend was an amazing copy of Romancing Saga 3. The SaGa series is probably my second favorite series of all time and I now have a copy of one of the best games in said series. I started playing it and, while I was able to understand some of it, I think I may need to install a patch of some sort if I want to play it a regular pace.
TL;DR? Ha! I don't do that. Go back and read about my finds! I do the same thing for you all! ^.~ It was a great weekend.
