May 2015 - Recently Added to Collection/Recently Purchased

[Warmsignal]

Purchased the game last month only to find that it was in a delivery limbo, but I'm glad it arrived.  Plus, in awesome condition.

Dual Hearts (PS2)

I'm kind of wondering at this point if my mentioning of this game in the PS2 "price spike" thread is what has inspired so much buzz about it recently. I think I've noticed it being added to several forum members collections since then. It's one of those obscure games that is going up in price pretty much on the mystique alone.

I was able to buy most of the amiibo I was casually looking for.
Pac-Man
Charzard
Greninja
Wario
Splatoon 3 pack
G
Of course can't find the 2 I really wanted though

EDIT:...Ended up also getting a Yoshi and Link Wii U fight pad and a blue PS4 controller

Which makes me upset I passed on it at HPB just because it didnt have the manual :/

I got Splatoon for Wii U today. I also got the Inkling Boy and Girl amiibos as well as Silver Mario. The guy at Gamestop said that it was the last Inkling Boy so that was a good call. Silver Mario I'll keep in its package. Inklings I take out. I also have Ness and Pac-Man on the way. Should arrive to my place around June.



I also found Q*Bert for Game Boy at a Goodwill.

Hit garage sales and waited in a long lines to get Amiibos this week.
Wasn't a ton of sales due to there being a lot of rain this week, but still had a couple nice finds.

And last at that community sale I mentioned before, I asked a lady about video games and she said she had some at her house down the street. She first asked about coming back later, but I told her I don't mind walking so I walked a couple blocks to her house and waited outside as she brings out a Sega Genesis (model 2) with 2 controllers AV hookups (no adapter) and 21 loose games!

Stopped at a sale and asked a lady about video games and she said she had an old Nintendo but it was buried in a closet and she was still in the middle of cleaning it out. Asked me to come back in a couple hours. I come back and she shows me a Wii (white) with 2 crappy games I didn't need, so I just passed. 

Stopped at one neighborhood sale and I swear, I saw every reseller I know there. Every sale that had games was so picked over. One of the resellers that knows me well (and has given me issues in the past) was complaining about there was to many of them there. So I pretty much got outta there and looked else where.

A big annual street sale was today so I checked it out. Lots of random PS2/PS3/X360/Wii/DS games and I passed on all of them. Prices were ok but nothing I was after.

But I did get a sealed Wii remote charger kit for a buck. A Value Village had some stuff and I grabbed Sims 2 Double Deluxe and Project Sylpheed for the 360 for $3 each and then went to the local gamestore and picked up PS2 NFS: Rivals for $15 which was technically free since I had store credit.

A shout out to Lady D for helping me with this.

SO! My birthday isn't until June, but it's already shaping up to be better than last year. Over the weekend, I had the opportunity to meet a friend of mine from GameFAQs face to face. She learned that it was my birthday and gave me a gift to end all gifts. Does everyone have their jealousy in check? Well, you should. First, she got me 8 character figures from the Tales series. I know there are only seven in the pics, but the one not shown is Zelos Wilder from Symphonia. He is on display elsewhere.

We see Kyle Dunami, Reala, and Judas from Tales of Destiny 2. This happens to be my favorite in the entire series. We also see Rutee Katrea, Leon Magnus, Lilith Aeleron and Stan Aeleron from Tales of Destiny. They are magnificent. Each one comes with a variety of weapons and attachments that they can equip. I am loving these. They will be put on display in the game room.





But, the biggest gift of all was Lufia 2. Lufia mother-f*cking 2. I am on cloud nine. I have wanted to play this game for years. YEARS I tell you. The best part is, I've already had other friends offer to buy the box and manual for me to make the game complete.

I can't begin to say how grateful I am for her kindness. I've known her for years on GameFAQs and getting to meet her was the best gift of all. Of course, the tangible gifts don't hurt too much, either. This is going to be the best birthday ever if this continues.

Awww <3 <3 <3 that is so amazing! If I've learned anything from the last few years of being on VGC and Twitch, it's that gamers are some of the kindest, most generous people there are. Congrats, and happy birthday!

Thanks so much! I'm still in complete shock from her kindness.

Wow, that's amazing! And some people dare say that people you meet on the Internet are just virtual/worthless relationships. Friends are friends, no matter where you meet them!
