Is the market shrinking? No posts until the 5th? What's happening?

People probably can't decide how to spend their tax returns.

Anyhoo, starting the month with a small batch for the 360:

Jillian Michaels Fitness Adventure
MUD: FIM Motocross World Championship
Qubed

I also picked up a new Xbox One controller and went with the Minecraft Creeper one. Looks really nice in-person.

Finally, my made a few big purchases for my board/card game collection:
Game of Thrones Catan
Scythe

Just got Dragon's Lair Trilogy For Wii and Fire Emblem Warriors for Switch.

New thread for April!

Is the market shrinking? No posts until the 5th? What's happening?

I've actually gotten a lot (for me), I've just kind of stopped posted in the acquired threads because I'm lazy.

Got a PSP 2001, but a lot of you know that after my post in the General Thread. Came with a charger cord and memory stick. And I picked up a component cable for it.

With it I got:
-Brothers in Arms: D-Day (came with the system, likely will end up as a trader)
-Capcom Classics Remixed
-Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles
-God of War: Chains of Olympus
-God of War: Ghost of Sparta
-Sega Genesis Collection
-Ys Seven: Oath in Felghana

I also recently got:
-Armored Core 4 (Xbox 360)
-Dynasty Warriors 3: Xtreme Legends (PS2)
-Ninja Gaiden (NES)
-Ninja Gaiden II: The Dark Sword of Chaos (NES)
-Ninja Gaiden II (Xbox 360)
-Tales of the Abyss (3DS)
-Wild Arms (PS1)
-Wild Arms 2 (PS1)
-Wild Arms 3 (PS2)
-WWE Smackdown: Here Comes the Pain (PS2) - Last one in the series before it went to Smackdown vs. Raw
-Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter

And I got a two-issue comic book series of Wolfenstein that was really cool.

I used to own the 2 Ninja Gaiden games, had to replace them.

I've actually gotten a lot (for me), I've just kind of stopped posted in the acquired threads because I'm lazy.

I know, i get like this too. Sometimes I will pool items before I take a picture, or don't post that I got them until a couple weeks later. I've been actively trying to keep a log of what I got in 2018, so at the end of the year I'll have an Imgur album with everything in it I can publish.

Last weekend:

[burningdoom]

Picked up Skyrim: Legendary Edition last night from GameStop after taking advantage of their 50%-70% extra credit (I think it may be only in California, because it's not on their website, and California is excluded from the website promotion of same cash as credit).

My first reaction are: "MODS! Fantastic!" But then I jump into the main-story to beef up my character and earn a few achievements first (no achievements if you use mods), and I'm not noticing much difference in graphics between my original XBox 360 version and this XBox One version.

Last weekend:

Keio flying squadron I remember years ago when I added keio flying squadron 2 to the collection expecting a shoot em up. Man was I dissapointed that there were so few shoot em up sections It was actually a platformer game with some shoot em up sections on the side wich look great. Still a solid platfomer though. As far as the mega CD shoot em ups goes not as hard to come by as the US version but still one of the more pricy titles in europe not complaining   



Didn't expect to own this not for a decent price anyways.

So someone had this very poorly listed I was kinda generous with my offer since it wasn't even videogame related or the word mario mentioned anywhere.

So for 60 euro's shipping included I got myself a nice piece plastic. The seller did a very nice packing job though Pretty impressive since It's pretty fragile and hard to ship without any damage.

Super mario world store sign Unfortunately not double sided but I'm only looking at one side and I'm okay with the price I paid It's a very nice display piece for the collection to say at the very least

Like several have said before me, I have just been too lazy and distracted to post my recent adds.  Here's some most recent adds from a convention I went to in Washington.

SWITCH
- Penny Punching Princess - Limited Edition

3DS
- The Alliance Alive - Launch Edition

VITA

Wii
Continuing my search for rare and uncommon games for Wii I found a few really rare ones and some I just found cheap and obscure enough to buy.
- Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles
- Pirates vs. Ninjas Dodgeball (the name alone sold me) lol
- Puzzle Kingdoms
- The Hardy Boys: The Hidden Theft
- Kidz Sports Ice Hockey
- Kidz Sports International Soccer (A VGcollector suggested to get the Kidz Sport games so I did, Think I spent $4 for the pair.)
- Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings
- Deer Drive Legends (very rare)
- Veggy World (SUPER RARE)

NDS
Used points I earned at my local used game store to get this for free.
- Dragonball Z: Harukanaru Densetsu

PSP
My local used game store got in a huge stack of PSP games, They where way under priced and I found three I had to get.
- Dead of Alive Paradise
- Gitaroo Man Lives!
- The Legend of Heroes III: Song of the Ocean

PS2
- Inysasha: The Secret of the Cursed Mask (used points at my local game store and got it free)

PS1
Picked up a few more Long Box PS1 games to get a complete PS1 collection, down to only missing 18 games.
My local used game store got in a bunch and I picked out a few I was missing or needed an upgrade.
- WWF Wrestlemania the Arcade Game (i have this in my collection, but I don't have to long box version.)
- Loaded (My disc looked beatup and this was perfect and free)
- Project Raiden (it was like brand new and in a lot better shape then mine)
- Novastorm
- Criticom

GEN
My local used game store got in some CIB genesis games and I found two I was missing.
- Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego?
- Galahad
Also I ordered a reproduction of one of the worst games ever made. (I don't think an original exists)
- Crazybus

SNES
A kickstarter game I backed finally came in the mail.
- Sydney Hunter and the Caverns of Death

FAM
My local used game store gets Japanese games every so often. This was only $3 and it was never released in the US.
- Choplifter

And last a rare game console that was only released in PAL regions.
- Hanimex Programmable TV Game (just rolls off the tongue)
Its part of the series of various consoles released in the PAL regions known as the PC-50X. I have another one called the Lark TVG 868 but I love the look of this one, The joysticks alone look more like an Atari 2600 style. The games are that of early Pong, mostly Pong style sport games and Racing games. It was pretty cheap and its like brand new.
