That is a well-used GBA-SP. It's worn in all the right places. Mine isn't in much better shape, and I play the hell out of it.

Time for another round of pick ups.
Mostly a bunch of Limited print games came in the mail.

"Pop" Classic Arcades
I found the rest of the mini arcades I needed, just missing #01 which is just a B&W version of Pac-Man.
- Space Invaders
- Asteroids
- Frogger

XBone
- Sonic Mania - Collector's Edition
I love the statue and the extras but was disappointed to find out it has no physical copy of the game inside.  :-\

PS4 
- Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap - Collector's Edition
- Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap
- Drive! Drive! Drive!
- Jotun
- Neurovoider
- Plague Road
- Oceanhorn
- Shadow Warrior 2
- Guacamelee!

VITA
- Oceanhorn
- Plague Road

XB360
Stopped at a thrift store and saw a XB360 controller for $6. It didn't feel like it had any loose/broken sticks or buttons and figured for $6 I can't go wrong.

PSP
These came into my local used game store.
- Mega Man: Powered Up
- Mega Man X: Maverick Hunter

NDS
My local used game store got in this and it was a lot cheaper then online.
- Advance Wars: Dual Strike

Wii
This has to be one of the rarest Wii games in NA.
- Mr. Bean's Wacky World

PS2
I've always heard there was a sequel to Mr. Mosquito released in Japan only. So I found a copy dirt cheap.
- Ka 2: Let's Go Hawaii

SAT
My local used game store got in a stack of Saturn games. These where the only ones I was missing all priced under $10.
- WWF Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game
- NBA Jam Extreme
- Fighting Vipers

SNES
My local used game store got in a game I was missing but it was in pretty bad shape. I looked online and saw one going for cheaper and in great shape so I just bought it.
- Super Adventure Island

SFAM
While I was looking up Super Famicom games I saw that this game was going for cheap. Kinda surprised seeing that most "cute-em ups" are pretty pricey.
- Cotton 100%

I took pic's of the used game store I go to, I'll try and have a post of it up sometime.

I picked up Mega Man Legacy Collection for the Xbox One last night at Wal Mart. I been wanting this game since it was announced awhile back. Started to play it last night and realized I somehow still know how to play Mega Man 7 and 8. I haven't played those games since I was in high school and that was a long time ago.

I'm finally joining the modern age of retro gaming:



I love that I'm now able to play any region game without the use of adapters, compatibility issues, or not knowing the language (you can upload language patches to the system!) Having built-in Game Genies with all the codes pre-loaded is awesome, too (well, you have to download the file off the site, but no biggie.). But I think two best parts are being able to finally play Game Gear games on a TV instead of that terrible Game Gear screen. And being able to play Sega Genesis and GB/GBA games with a Super Nintendo Controller! (It does suck that my Master System controller wasn't compatible, though. The original Genesis was compatible with any controller that fit the port. Genesis, Master System, or even Atari 2600 joysticks.)

First of all congratz  :D

Language patches seem interesting is this for every japanese game or only for certain games for wich these patches have been made. Many especially uncommon games and japanese rpg do not always have a fan translation, I'm curious or is it just all automatic.

Congrats mate!  I love my RetroN5.  Don't listen to any of the internet hate, it is a great system, especially since you didn't get a launch edition.  I'm interested in that adapter for GG and MS though, where did you get it? 

Just in case this may be of value to you...  My guide on how to convert any inserted cartridge to any other game on that system is below.  Though this was in Jan 2015 I imagine you can still do this method now since it is really a method using the translation patch feature.
