General / Re: The Top 10 Most Wanted Items on Your Wishlist
« on: February 16, 2015, 07:07:54 pm »
Okay, I'm going a slightly different direction here because it's easier for me - top most wanted games per console.

PS1 - Kinsley's Adventure
PS2 - Trapt
PS3 - Hatsune Miku 2nd
PS Vita - Freedom Wars
NES - Ninja Crusaders
SNES - Mr. Nutz
N64 - Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness
GameCube - Lost Kingdoms 2
Wii - Tomb Raider Anniversary
Wii U - Rayman Legends
DS - A Witch's Tale
3DS - DOA Dimensions
Gen - Shadowrun
Game Gear - Arena Maze of Death
Saturn - Clockwork Knight
DreamCast - Toy Commander

I've already made up my wishlists and I have a strategy of going for certain titles depending on most wanted. This cuts way down on impulse buys. I'm very conservative with funds, and don't usually spend unless I can see that I've gained quite a bit.

Seems many VG Collector's are having / or had relationship woes just in recent times. :( Hope it's not the lifestyle of gaming / collecting itself that is driving couples apart!  ??? Then again, it's shocking to think that half of marriages end up that way.

Game Gears kind of suck to play, even in working condition. I had one (until the sound stopped working). The problem with a good majority of games on it are two things:

1. The games are often so zoomed-in that you can't see what's coming and you get cheap deaths as a result.

2. Any games that have lots of movement (such as Sonic) get blurry when the speed ramps up.

And yeah, they are prone to breaking. The speakers on mine stopped working.

I so wish someone would make something like the Super Game Boy so we can play Game Gear games on the T.V. That might eliminate some of the blurriness, at least. And it would mean we wouldn't have to take chances on faulty Game Gears.

Gotta disagree. I like the Game Gear, and replacing the caps isn't so bad. Yeah, the games are zoomed in, but you get more fluid gameplay as a trade off. IMO, the Game Gear was the best handheld until the release of the original Nintendo DS. There's no way, regardless of any library, that I'd consider any handheld from the 90s that wasn't color, and wasn't also back-lit. Couldn't stand that then, and still can't now.

There are Game Gear mod kits where you can play RGB out, but the mod isn't so easy to do.

Rooms: The Main Building - Goofy title, kinda generic-looking box art, but a pretty interesting puzzle game if that's your thing. It's more or less a sliding block puzzle, but the twist is your character is in the blocks and you have to slide them so that you can navigate to the exit. $3 used at GS if you can find it, and worth that if you like unique puzzle games.

Cruis'n - I had wanted this because it was supposed to be a sequel to Cruis'n USA / Cruis'n World. Finally found it complete yesterday...but now I kinda wish I hadn't. In the running for worst game I've played on the Wii. Broken controls, HORRIBLE graphics (we're talking PS1 level here - no textures on the cars at all & the environment textures are a pixilated, stretched-out mess) - no redeeming qualities at all. Avoid at all cost, I'll be returning my copy today at lunch.  :-X

At over 100 games, you're pushing it to ask for more tolerable software on Wii.  :P

...add Friday The 13th to the list.

Flawed, but good. A concept most cannot seem to grasp.

General / Re: Don't know if old topic, but how do you all store your games?

Media shelves, dresser drawers (sadly), and PSP is currently banished to inside of the TV console. I'm actually very tight on room at this point. Future purchases are going into one last drawer and then my space is maxed out.

Pretty excited for the album after hearing this!

Finally got a pack of 100 resealable DVD baggies... I guess it's part of the collection? Now to figure out which games get the honor.

...oh and, yeah I've got some games here and there. For the most part, whatever you can make out in my signature. :P

I can foresee myself maybe buying some PS4 games eventually, but the actual PS4 will come much later, if it comes at all. My approach to 8th gen is going to be a lot more conservative, I think.

Little bit depressed today over one of my local spots. This place has been pulling out their game stock from being in storage for over 5 years, with lots of great selection that's not picked over much and until today had been going by a flat cost policy of $10 per game, regardless of what it was. Been cherry picking that place for a while, and went there today to find out the owner has caught the game selling fever again, and now all games are $20, unless he has at least 5 copies of them, then it's $10. So basically 90% of the good games are $20 now. The only stuff they have with 5 copies is just the crap nobody wants. Looks like he'll be holding on to that massive stock for another 20 years at those rates.  ???

If I could have known this was coming, I would have spent crazy money before. I had my eye on probably another 20 games there. Thought I could take my time.  :-\

Mario Kart SNES is so cheap on 150cc. Just turns the computer into a sack of bricks that can defy all driving physics, and use special items constantly. This is got to be the hardest Mario Kart by far.

Finally saw Fight Club 15 years later... was kinda crap, as I suspected.

Why are regular 3DS consoles still more expensive than XL? Makes no sense to me. Hopefully prices will come down a bit when the "new" is released. I mean, everyone wants to use their amibos so, I imagine there will be an influx of pre-owned regular 3DS?
