I ordered a Neogeo X Gold when it was on sale the other day. I'm really looking forward to it getting here
-
I didnt get a whole lot this past month, KOF 99 Neo Geo, Red Dead Redemption GOY-PS3,Bomberman-Turbografx,Fighting Golf-NES
-
I can't remember if I already mentioned it, but I had Capcom vs SNK 2 (Naomi) and a Knights of Valour 3 poster arrive yesterday :)

Nice with Capcom Vs SNK 2. I didn't know there were others interested in collecting for the naomi. I always wished it got a standard naomi release instead of the GD-ROM. Do you run a complete cab or just have the naomi connected to a screen?
I really want to get a sega vs city cabinet.
Congrats on the purchase.
-
I run everything through a supergun, when the rent expires it's a lot easier to move a tiny PCB than a full cab! XD
But I don't actually own a Naomi at the moment - I used to, but I couldn't quite justify the GD ROM drive so I was stuck with carts. With disc games being so cheap and common (on the whole) this is my attempt at "forcing my hand"; I'm hoping to get myself enough GD ROM games so that by the time I do faff around with Naomi again I have a lot of cool games waiting at home to be enjoyed :)
-
So, this came today:

The lighting in the pic sucks - they are in excellent shape!

Nice! I still need Shining Wisdom and that one looks nice! Jelly.

Saw the poster, which looks freaking awesome, but missed that you'd snaggd CvS2. Very nice!
-
Thanks! Looking forward to adding more in the future :D

Got me that cool mezco Earthworm Jim figure.

Pretty badass. I'm not very much a figure guy, but I like having a couple around and this one is cool.
-
All your purchases are really awesome. Make mine seem lame in comparison, haha.
In the past few days I picked up:
VC - Mario Tennis from Club Nintendo (used my coins)
DS - SMT Strange Journey ($7)
Wii U - LEGO City Undercover (on sale at Target, get a $10 gift card with purchase and reserve of GTA V, which was a buck)
Wii - The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (had got a used copy from Gamestop that wouldn't play past the opening movie, so I ordered a new one with cd from Amazon, which I should have done in the first place)
GCN - Super Mario Sunshine ($28, at a used book store I frequent. Thought I would have to hunt this one down)
Wii - LEGO Lord of the Rings (Off Amazon, for $14)
Wii - LEGO Harry Potter Years 1-4 (used at GS for $16)
Wii - LEGO Harry Potter Years 5-7 (used at GS for $16)
Wii - LEGO Star Wars the Complete Saga (used at GS for $16, might have been $14)
DS - The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (used at GS for $25)
DS - The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks (used at GS for $25)
DS - Chrono Trigger (my free game at GS during the B2G1 sale on DS/Wii games. Never been a huge fan, but willing to give it another shot)
I could have got a better deal on the DS Zeldas I am sure, but I had some credit and they had a sale going on.
-
My dad gave me some birthday money a few days early, so I used it to buy Sega Ages 2500 Vol.30: Galaxy Force II Special Extended Edition :D Bless him, still keeping his daughter gaming even now ;)
-
Just picked-up Atelier Ayesha: The Alchemist of Dusk :)
Been loving the PS3 Atelier games, so far...so (even though there wasn't a nice NIS America pre-order/LE bonus...anything), I still decided to get it :o
-
Still sick, so I don't feel like bothering with pics this time, but recently snagged Ragnarok Tactics, Otomedius Excellent: Special Edition, Borderlands 2 + Season Pass ($25 Amazon Deal of the Day, woot!), and Torchlight II.
Not too much longer until Soul Hackers should be shipping... :)

Naomi collecting and Sega Ages: Galaxy Force II... pat yourself on the back because you are awesome.
-
Picked up Battalion Wars 2 for a buck :) I'm looking forward to trying it
-
Nice! Battalion Wars 2 looked pretty cool, from the videos I'd seen of it awhile back.
Why so cheap, though? Flea market?

Actually it was at EB Games, they are doing a massive clearance in Canada right now.
-
My Neogeo X Gold came in today. Yeah, this thing is pretty badass. I haven't got to spend a lot of time with it yet, but Metal Slug is awesome. It was worth the price of admission. After The Boy goes to bed, I'll spend a little more time with it.
-
I recently went out and bought a new surge protector. It is a major improvement because it allows me to hook up my tower of power (3 brick AC adapters), saturn, dreamcast, Xbox, 360, TV, Audio Receiver, and Audio mixer. It's nice not having to unplug everything to play the SEGA CD.
I also finally bought a Audio extension so I can connect the composite audio to the receiver and not the TV.
Next on my list is to buy some SCART (RGB) cables for the Genesis and Saturn along with a SCART to component converter to connect to US televisions. Then the VGA cables for the Dreamcast with a VGA to HDMI or component converter. Then, I should have my setup the way I want.

Went on a bit of a buying spree of Sega Master System stuff...
Cloud Master

Also managed to find a boxed X Band modem for the Genesis. Always wanted one of those and a Mega Mouse after reading about them in Sega Visions Magazine. ;D

Nice! I love seeing the Master System stuff. Cloud Master is a personal favorite of mine!

I've been picking up a few things here and there. I found a pretty good deal on a PS2 Slim today (which I've never owned). It was all there for $15.00. Not a bad deal IMO.

Gpot Battle Fantasion on Xbox 360 for 99 cents at Gamestop... new in box ;)

I've heard you can still get those XBand modems to work if you coordinate with someone else who has one. Apparently, these just dialed directly if desired. There are some youtube videos of it. Neat if true. Xband would have lasted longer then XBox Live.

Sweet! I'll have to give it a whirl once it comes in. I wonder if it will work over a VOIP phone line? The fax machine does, so I don't see why this wouldn't...

Found a few things this weekend:
Spy Hunter- NES
Xevious - GBA
Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean - GameCube
Gauntlet: Dark Legacy - PS2
Half-Life - PS2
Tekken 4 - PS2
R-Type Final - PS2
ChoroQ - PS2
Spy Hunter - PS2
Dreamfall: The Longest Journey - Xbox
Perfect Dark: Zero - 360
Star Ocean: The Last Hope - 360
Magna Carta 2 - 360
Also found a fat PS2 at Goodwill for a reasonable price.
-
Bit envious of your Magna Carta 2 score. I put off buying that one for ages, and now prices are getting kinda blech online.
Surprised to see R-Type Final tho - I thought you weren't much for shmups? :)
-
Picked up a few things in the past couple days.
Bought a red GBA sp, with a really great condition screen other than a small piece of dust inside.
Also bought a copy of The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, though it has a big "Not for Resale" on it. I guess it was used in a kiosk at some point. It is not the DEMO version though.
Found a copy of Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn yesterday at GS, in really good condition. Everything came with it, including unused club Nintendo code. Now I need to find Path of Radiance for the Gamecube. I'd probably straight trade my Suikoden II copy for one if I could find one.
Today I grabbed a copy of Fire Emblem Awakening, (again), and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky.
-
What i bought this week-end.
The lost cost me about 10$ :)

I'm not, the boyfriend is. ;)
Yeah, I got a decent price on Magna Carta 2 - otherwise I probably would have passed on it (again).

I couldn't hold off on these for the change thread. And ordered them on Friday. Brand new from Amazon. Guess that frees up options on what to spend the change on now. Ha.

Still annoyed I paid too much for DS1, but at least I got the DS2 re-release without breaking the bank. Now, to find time to actually play them... ooh, and Soul Hackers soon!
-
Ya, I have no idea when I'll be able to play them either. The only console I have hooked up at the moment is the Wii and I still don't have a lot of time to put into that and Xenoblade Chronicles atm (stupid packing).
-
I just got a sealed Soviet Strike (Greatest Hits) for the PS1 for one buck. Since the game isn't worth that much, I'm keeping it.

No plushie?
:o
-
No plushie (yet?) for me, but I may splurge on it when my finances are doing better. The motherboard I picked up a couple weeks ago set me back pretty hard, and it hit right before bill paying time... then I got sick for a week, and lost 3 days of work, so I've gotta watch it for awhile. My check this week is gonna be for only two days of work! :(
-
Priorities, and responsible budgeting & spending (and all that rot:) -BUT-
That Jack Frost...
is one mighty fine, and cute-as-all-hell plushie (IMHO, of course), that is!
-
No plushie for me, since these are reprints. But I don't really care either. Just happy I was able to finally get my hands on them at a good price. :)

Just snagged Dead Island: Game of the Year Edition for $4.99. Digital, but considering the retail version uses Steam, it's all the same :)

-
Got my Hyperdimension Neptunia: Victory ("Iris Hearts You") Giclee in yesterday's mail...Yay!
Strange that I ordered this one *after* "Peer Pressure"...yet...it arrived 1st?!
Kinda' a pain in the ass - the three I already have hung-up (iirc) are 26" (Height) -but- this one looks to be 28" - 29"
:o
Now...I'll definitely have to wait for Peer Pressure to arrive before figuring-out/hanging up all 5 of 'em (I know, I know...1st world problems; to be sure:)

Apparently, I broke 3,000 posts!
I wonder how many that number would be, if we hadn't lost the totals when we switched forums software.

I'd actually borrowed the PS3 version from someone awhile back, and found I liked it a fair bit. Reminds me a little bit of Left 4 Dead meets Borderlands meets Dead Rising 2 - very large, open areas to explore, with a lot of little sidequests and characters sprinkled throughout the landscape, and a pretty nice system for creating custom weapons. I can see it maybe getting a touch repetitive, but it hits that "just one more quest... " nerve nicely.
I didn't pay attention to the pre-release hype, and never really do with games, so I don't know what people were complaining about. It's a fun game!
The deal I found is on Amazon, and appears to still be active - http://www.amazon.com/Dead-Island-Game-Edition-Online/dp/B008NAYASM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1365690876&sr=8-1&keywords=dead+island. Just open the games library after purchasing, activate the serial key in Steam, and off you go :)

...*AND*...
Fed-Ex was just here & dropped-off my "Peer Pressure" Giclee; YAY!...Again!
The only "problem" (read: well, *consideration*, really) is that the 3 I aleady had are all the exact same size, "Iris Hearts You" is longer & narrower than all 4 of the others, and, "Peer Pressure"...is a bit shorter & wider than all 4 of my other ones :o
Hmmn...May need to re-arrange them all when I hang the 2 new ones up (not *complaining*, mind you - I actually looking forward to having the time to do all of this (probably not until around Mon, or so)...

I got home this afternoon, and my wife greets me with "I got you something!". Turns out she dropped $30 on this

If you can't see the two on the left, that's Wonderboy and Ghostbusters.

Sweet! Those are some good games. I am a huge wonder boy fan. If you can snag wonder boy 3, do it! Dragon's trap is amazing. Also, monster world 4 is available on PSN/XBLA and is just gorgeous.
Also, a suggestion, Outrun (and almost every other SMS racing game) suffers from the crippling defect of having to press up and down to shift. There is a good pedal that makes it fantastic to play. I highly recommend.

She found it in a dirt mall in northern Arkansas. I'm pretty pumped.

Just got an Intertron VC4000 today, Got it for $15 wth 12 games. Shipping was a bit much to get it from the UK but still cheaper then most for the system alone. It was pretty dirty but once I cleaned it up it's looks pretty good.
Tested it out on my PAL TV and it works and all the carts work fine. The picture is a bit fuzzy think it might need a new RF cable. The Joysticks remind me of the Atari 5200 but at least they center better the the 5200. The Graphics look like an Atari 2600 and the best games (that I got anyway) are Invaders (Space Invaders clone) and Monster Man (Pac-Man clone). Not sure if any of the games I got are really "rare" but In the US they are all rare. lol

Finally picked up 3D MineStorm, 3D Crazy Coaster and 3D Narrow Escape for the Vectrex and gave my 3D Imager a whirl. I gotta say, it's great how they're able to assign colors to certain objects in the games using the shutter. I was underwhelmed with the 3D effects, though. Nothing really popped out at me and the convergence seemed to be off when things were far away, essentially doubling the image. Perhaps there is some sort of calibration step that I'm missing. That said, things that were at a middle distance and eventually up close to the viewing point seemed to converge pretty well. Maybe I'm just expecting too much out of first generation 3D gaming.
I also picked up Galactic Pinball, Panic Bomber and Wario Land for the Virtual Boy. I now lack seven games from completing a cart-only Virtual Boy US release set.

Heh...of course it couldn't have been something rare, valuable, and/or something that I didn't already have
5+
copies of -but- I *won* yet another copy of the cool, NIS America-Only, pre-order-bonus-LE of Hyperdimension Neptunia: Victory (w/ everything included all still originally *sealed*) playing cards w/ a bunch of friends last night 8)

I've seen a whole lot of systems in my time, but I had never heard of this one. I had to go look it up. Any fun? Or is it more of a collector's item for you?

'twas my bday yesterday, so my boyfriend surprised me with the Journey collection. He wanted to go pick me up a PS3 finally yesterday, but I convinced him that we should wait for a price drop... hopefully it comes soon! I told him I don't have any time to play games right now anyway, until class is done in a month...

Wait until tax refund time. THEN you'll sell a price drop. :)
Also welcome back. :D

I haven't bought any new games lately, but I did trade in quite a few games to get some other games all for the Xbox 360
Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City
Red Dead Redemption
Midnight Club: Los Angeles
L.A. Noire
Saints Row
Saints Row 2
I also picked up an NES with Spiderman: Return of the Sinister Six
I will shortly be receiving another NES and SNES that someone is giving me because she is unsure if they work so I will be getting those and hopefully they work fine.

Picked up a few things this weekend. Added some boxes and manuals to fill some holes and also several games. The highlights were:

Both for well under $5 a piece on eBay. Now all I need is Castlevania: Legend and I have all the Game Boy/GBA Castlevania titles!
And both of these in a recent trade:

Congrats on the cheap Castlevania get! Cart only, I assume? If not I'm super jealous ha.
For me, I got SimCity DS for like $7 complete and almost brand new! Been wanting it for awhile, but didn't want to pay the $20 I'd seen it going for new. Seems like a nice deal to me, especially since its pretty minty.
Oh and I got a Super Mario fleece blanket for the retro game room, from the same store. Its really cozy too. :)

Just got an Intertron VC4000 today, Got it for $15 wth 12 games. Shipping was a bit much to get it from the UK but still cheaper then most for the system alone. It was pretty dirty but once I cleaned it up it's looks pretty good.
Tested it out on my PAL TV and it works and all the carts work fine. The picture is a bit fuzzy think it might need a new RF cable. The Joysticks remind me of the Atari 5200 but at least they center better the the 5200. The Graphics look like an Atari 2600 and the best games (that I got anyway) are Invaders (Space Invaders clone) and Monster Man (Pac-Man clone). Not sure if any of the games I got are really "rare" but In the US they are all rare. lol
I've seen a whole lot of systems in my time, but I had never heard of this one. I had to go look it up. Any fun? Or is it more of a collector's item for you?
It's a game system from Germany, It's rare here in the states. It's mainly for collectors most of the games are clones of Atari 2600 style games. There was only like 36 games ever made for it.

It's cool to have oddities like that. Something to pull out and show buddies. I'm a bit partial to console hardware, though. I have this unexplainable affinity for it.

I love the "odd" game systems that most people never heard off, My goal is to own at least one of every game system ever made world wide. There is a few extremely rare systems that I doubt I'll ever own. But I have found rare systems in the past that where not overpriced. Like the Casio PV1000, the CreatiVision, Bandai/Apple Pippin atworld, N64DD, FM Town Marty, Turbo Duo and a Playstation Net Yarose.

Pretty decent haul. Halley Wars is a complete hidden gem. It is in my top 5 for the system. I honestly want to put it at my number 1 game for the system, but am sure I am forgetting something at the moment. It is a excellent shmup (and not just for a portable, it is just really good).
Just one of those games that most people would probably overlook.
-
I found an opened, but complete, Action Replay for Xbox. It has the memory card, USB memory card reader, and the software disc. It cost me two bucks.
And this thing sells for $50 online for some reason, wow.
-
I got home this afternoon, and my wife greets me with "I got you something!". Turns out she dropped $30 on this

If you can't see the two on the left, that's Wonderboy and Ghostbusters.
Earthbound and now this?! Your wife is so awesome! :)

Soul Hackers and Pandora's Tower came in! And in the box of video games they go...

Indeed it is! Congrats!
But Action 52 being a crown jewel, ha! It's a cruel joke, really. It's completely insane that it's that expensive now. I had the game when it was brand-new...It was TERRIBLE! I was pissed I spent money on it. I thought I was getting a helluva deal with 52 games on one cart, what a dumb kid I was. Not a single game worth mentioning on that cart. Many were rehashes of another game on the cart, with a new name. And a few didn't even work right, they had game breaking glitches!

Let me know what you think of The Cave! It's been on sale off and on, and I've been wondering if it's another Trine clone or not.

Well I played it for a bit tonight since the weather's pretty good, and um, it plays a lot more like The Lost Vikings than Trine. There's been no combat, just puzzles. I'm enjoying it, but some puzzles are kinda... evil.

I have no delusions that Action 52 is absolutely horrible. I'll probably pop it in once to sample the atrocities it holds, and then it will go back into my 'rare and valuable' display case.

Haha, yeah, I probably won't be playing either of those anytime soon, I'm afraid... Though, isn't your 3DS still out? You could potentially play Soul Hackers...
Ya I opened up Soul Hackers and got about 30 mins into it. But I only have time to play games just before I fall asleep and ended up putting SimCity back in the 3DS, since I can save that at any point in the game. So I can just shut if off when I start getting tired.
-
Hah - yeah;
I'm planning on/looking forward to getting Soul Hackers more right now, just to pop-in the soundtrack & give it a listen as I'm driving around doing my daily errands/running around :)
After all...I've heard A LOT of love about the game's music :P
Chances are just as good that, with my HUGE backlog, that I'll just as likely get to play SMT IV before I do Soul Hackers :o
-
I haven't had time to listen yet, but the included soundtrack is actually a remixed version of the original. Still gotta track down a standalone copy if you want the OG music :)

Damn man, your collection is pretty big. You ever take pics of it? Id love to see what all you have!
I gave up on finishing the NES personally. Just cant foresee me paying the stupid amounts of money that some of the horrible rare titles are going for. What 13 are you missing still?
-
I'd also love to see some pics of your collection. I often think mine is huge, until I see one that is far bigger.

Does this go on this thread or on the other thread? Hm...
I just received Portal 2 Soundtrack: Songs To Test By Collectors Edition from Amazon. It took them -a month- to send it to me. But I got it. Woo.
-
Not much of a haul but its better than nothing : I was walking around a game store looking at stuff when this family comes in with a box. I tried to peek in it but to no avail. No sweat ... I just kind of remained by when the employee walks up. We have had plenty of conversations before so hes cool and he knows Im a collector so he doesnt mind me there. First thing the lady pulls out is a Gamecube. The employee told her that they dont buy them atm cause they have too many. She says "It even has this cool thing that lets you play Gameboy games." I figure that was going to be my cue in a moment to hit her up. I look up at the employee and he nods at me ... so I ask her what she wanted for it. She said she wants to sell it cheap cause her kids are in trouble and she wants to get rid of it. I open the GC and the disk isnt in there. I ask if she has it and sure enough she has the disk, the manual and the case. She says she will sell me everything for $15. I pause for drama's sake but tell her Ill take it. I give her the $15 and hit the door. In the car, I go through it all. Gamecube, 2 official matching controllers, GB player with disk and memory card, and half dozen games including Zelda Windwaker and 2 GB Pokemon games : red and gold. They are missing the label but they are still in the color matching cartridges. Not too bad I suppose. I need to clean up the disks but they work. Both the Pokemon games work.
-
Nabbed a few more for the Vectrex:
Armor Attack
Art Master
Pole Position
Spin Ball
Starhawk
Web Wars
I think I'm now missing nine overlays, seven games and the light pen from having what I consider to be a "complete" collection (excluding Mr. Boston and Minestorm II).

Not much of a haul, huh? It takes a lot to impress you, doesn't it? GameCube, 2 controllers, and Gameboy Player for $15? I'll give you $15 for the GameBoy player, then you get the rest for free.

Really? The Game Boy Player is awesome! It's like a much better version of the Super Game Boy. Only, it also allows you to play GBA games too. Not to mention, you can use it as a giant GBA and link it to another GC w/ GB Player and play 2 player co-op on 2 TVs! Win.

Only wanted to add that the games look better than they ever have before on the Game Boy Player, as well.
-
I'd still like to link 4 GC/GB Players with 4 TVs and play Four Swords... hmm.
Also, I bought Crimson Shroud last night, thanks to the sale going on in the 3DS eShop. I think I'll pick up Liberation Maiden too.
-
Picked up Winter Games for the NES and a Wii Balance Board at a thrift store today. Looking forward to using the balance board for some yak racing in Rabbids TV Party.
-
Damn man, your collection is pretty big. You ever take pics of it? Id love to see what all you have!
I gave up on finishing the NES personally. Just cant foresee me paying the stupid amounts of money that some of the horrible rare titles are going for. What 13 are you missing still?
Ya I have taken pic's. I'll have to post some on this site one day. as for the 13 NES titles I'm missing. The Games I consider "Holy Grail Games" are NWC90, Stadium Events, Cheetahmen 2, and the 3 Panesian games. once they sell for over a grand, they become out of reach for me.
1. Blackjack
2. Bubble Bobble 2
3. Chip n' Dale Rescue Rangers 2
4. Dragon Fighter
5. Dusty Diamond's All-Star Softball
6. Flintstones 2 (this one is slowly becoming a holy grail game) lol
7. Little Samson (this one too)
8. Menace Beach
9. Power Blade 2
10. Secret Scout
11. Stack Up
12. Wacky Races
13. Waynes World

I guess Im a tad bit stingier ... once they sell reliably for over $100 each, its out of my range unless I can still somehow get it for under a bill. Im shocked I have 3 of those on your list (BB2, Dragon fighter, Stack up).
-
I found a store that was celebrating 4/20 today by having a buy 4 games for $20. The only game not in the picture is WWE 13 for the Wii which is already up for sale. The SNES game was bought at another store for $10.

Just found all 4 of these : http://kotaku.com/5483278/think-outside-the-bun-get-free-atari-games at a thrift store. Paid 50 cents for the whole lot. Should they be in our database?
-
You can add them if you want. They're valid PC (NA) games, just like stuff like Chex Quest, the Burger King games, etc.

Here are my pickups for the month of April so far, I just started collecting as a hobby this month! So I'm still interested in "essential titles", like sonic and mario. lol

I'll start with what I ended up with today.
Traded Fable 2, Turok and Unreal Tournament 3 on Xbox 360 for
Super Mario Bros. 3, Sonic 2, Mortal Kombat 2 and a power adapter for my NES.
I also got the Dreamcast and blue VMU today.
I got my usual flea market guy to give me a deal,
he sold me a Dreamcast and a Game Cube for $40, gave the GC to my GF.
Also bought what I thought was a generic SNES controller for $3. Turned out being an old PC controller (guess I should have looked at the plug ::))
The other day I traded a motherboard I had laying around for a mad catz light gun for saturn, 3 free saturn games pack, a new in box saturn RF switch,
and that blue Dreamcast controller (gave me even more incentive to buy a dreamcast today! lol)
Girlfriend bought me the Genesis with sonic for $25 after I talked the guy down from $40.
She also gave me the SNES after she bought a new one.
My sister gave me back the PSP I gave to her after she decided she never played it, thanks sis! lol
Traded an external hard drive for the saturn, virtua cop 2 and 2 controllers.
Got TMNT and Kid Niki for $2 a few days ago.
DBZ Budokai 3 was $.50 from salvation army
Traded a box of magic cards for hexen, virtua fighter 2, black fire and warcraft 2.
Also got disk only copies of Crysis 3 for PS3 and Aliens: Colonial Marines for 360, but they aren't pictured.
Ended up finding my original ps1 after thinking it was stolen when i was a kid! WTF! ;D
-
My 2 copies of SMT: Soul Hackers *Finally* arrived :)

I decided to use my Save Your Change, Folks gold on

I was just looking at your collection, to see if I could make you an offer on anything. And truthfully, there's not much there I don't already have that's not Pokémon (I don't play Pokémon).
-
That's cool, I just started collecting, so I don't have much yet.
Thanks for looking!

yeah, Poker Night's a good deal right now! looks like it should be fun, and I've been wanting to try out Don't Starve for a long time now
-
I think I got a good deal guys!
I had an ad on Craigslist searching for Saturn games.
Somebody offered me these a long time ago and told me to make a cash offer, but I had none.
Today, I got an email from her saying she'd take $20 for all of them!
Still no cash on me. And then, just when I was going to say I can't, someone gave me an offer on some worthless old computer parts!
Got $40 from the junk!
Got a pretty damn good deal (I'd have paid $20 for Astal alone)!
Ended up taking the remaining $20 to a shop that had retro games for 30% off and got
Maximum Carnage - Genesis
Sonic Spinball
and Castlevania - N64 (I'm coming for you, Scott! ;))

I was out of town again today for work. Went into another game store as I do. I found Astro Warrior/Hang On and Choplifter on the SMS for $7 each. Both were boxed and Astro Warrior and Hang On had the manual. This has been pretty awesome.

That's a pretty nice Saturn starter set of games. Congrats!
-
Thanks! Just wish the awful long boxes came with them!
Cover Project, here I come!
So happy to play Astal!
I'm not very content with the games I got from the shop, I'm not sure they were worth my $20.
Oh well, live and learn I guess. ::)
-
Honestly, I think cover project cases would be > original cases anyhow. The chances of getting a complete Saturn collection with totally unbroken/not cracked cases would be about the same as finding SE in the wild.

If I was collecting US Saturn games I would definitely use the cover project. You can find loose Saturn games cheap. People will have a CD book full of them and not be able to sell them. Moreover, the cover project covers look NICE! There's a part of me that still wants to have Sega CD, Saturn, Dreamcast, Xbox, 360 games all on a shelf. It would look clean and sharp.

Yeah, they look pretty amazing, next time I get some cash I'm going to kinkos or office max to print some covers.
The only thing is that the Saturn manuals are too long to fit in a DVD case.
Also, instead of using universal game cases for n64 games, I was planning on using those black plastic vhs cases.
-
I may be selling, but that doesn't stop me buying too! :D
PS1: Umihara Kawase Shun
DC: Pop'n Music 3, Pop'n Music controller, PSOv.2 (again, last one lost in the post), Cool Cool Toon, Cosmic Smash
PS2: Sega Ages 2500 Vol. 30: Galaxy Force II
PC (doujin): Aurorablast 2, ∀kashicverse -Malicious Wake-
Think that's it for now :)
-
I'm so tempted to try collecting all the Sega Ages stuff, even the crappy ones. The Gunstar Heroes Treasure Box is especially squee! (and still on my wishlist :/)
How's Cool Cool Toon? I've heard good stuff, but never played it.

That would be kinda cool to have all of those!
-
I've not played Cool Cool Toon yet, it's still in the post!
As for the Sega Ages series - I'm missing just nine now (I think, anyway) out of the thirty three - I love them! One of the best things Sega's ever done as far as I'm concerned :)
-

I'm envious by Pop'n'Music. That is at the top of my import list behind Sega Gaga.
How's Cool Cool Toon? I've heard good stuff, but never played it.
Cool Cool Toon is supposed to be fantastic.
-
I bought Pop'n Music in the hopes my son would want a go :)
I was also pleasantly surprised to find that not only did Pop'n 1 - 4 get DC releases but they brought out a few of the append discs too! Obviously that still doesn't bring it up to the amount on PS1/PS2, but I think it's enough to be getting on with.
-
So I found this yesterday.
(http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j238/foxhack/DP/dp-2013-04-24_zps94469956.jpg)
This is a Japanese R2 DVD of Street Fighter. It was brand new, but I already opened it. This is a Sample version - it has a sticker over the JAN code, and it has "SAMPLE - LOAN" written on the inner ring of the disc. It was in a box with at least fifteen other Japan-region DVDs that had the same marks and stickers on 'em, most were brand new - and another stack of promo R1 DVDs for various US movies and TV shows. It cost me $2, and of course, I can't watch it on an R1 DVD player, so I made a region-free disc instead. Ha ha. :P
Also, the curious thing - apparently this came out on my birthday (6/28). Pretty neat. ^^;
-
Went to the first garage sales for the 1st time this year. only found 2 games.

Grabbed a couple more MVS wants today - Art of Fighting 3 and KoF 99 :)
Also got a slip through the post saying I need to pay £22 in customs charges for some packages - and I can't even remember what I ordered that'd get hit for a fee ;_;

Watch out for the (potential) scam w/ that kind of crap, Kimimi :-\

Unfortunately it's a totally legit charge :(

Well, the NES is already opened. It came out of the box in two pieces. The TV screen lights up, it just won't actually play the games when it is plugged in.
-
If the screen lights up but the games wont start, you may want to replace the connector. Could just be a really dirty pin in there.

Try taking a credit card and wrapping a thin cloth around it
(nothing that will break up into small bits though, try a soft cloth like you get with your phone screen protectors)
with a tiny bit of alcohol on it and insert it into the pin connector and move it up and down.
It worked for me a few times with numerous systems.

the NES biggest downfall is its pin connector, i always recommend that you replacing the pin connector when you buy a NES because those things are not made to last. the NES is built like a tank but the pin connector is not.

Just ordered a Sega Saturn Memory Card Plus for $10 free shipping!
I can finally save my games without the worry of them being erased!
What import games should I pick up?

I don't know about "built like a tank". You bump those things or the shelf they're on and you're game is pretty likely to reset or start blinking.

I killed my cousin's save file for Destiny of an Emperor when we were kids, just from hopped off of my bunk bed. The game started blinking and we loaded the game back up and no save file. It was a sad day.

That's a tragic save file loss as a kid. :(

He didn't touch the game for like 2 years after that either.
-
Hopefully he did return to playing it! That game is a shining star in the NES library.

like i said the pin connector was not built like a tank, it both poorly thought out and designed and that's why the slightest bump would cause it to start blinking or even reset the game, everything else was built like a tank

Ya he did. And eventually I tracked down my own copy too.

Some of them might not be worth it for the price I paid (new doesn't go for much more for some of them), but I figured I could always swap something out this weekend if I came across something better in another GS. Just had a B2G1 coupon I wanted to use, and they have a little sale going on right now through Sunday.
-
I thought you already had Tactics Ogre?

I did - ironically, this was probably the same copy I bought before then returned in a previous sale... :P
It's about the same price for new on Amazon, so I might swap it out for something else this weekend if I find something else.

Picked up Phantasy Star. Despite it being tied with Shenmue for my favorite game I have never owned it. At least, I've never owned the original SMS. I've played emulators and sonic's ultimate genesis collection and the phantasy star collection versions. I've just never owned a master system before.
This brings me to my other pickup... a master system. This pickup was inspired by a trade with SlothingXPIG. I have never owned a SMS before. But I decided to drive down to Thrillhouse and pick one up. I was shocked by how beautiful the SMS is in person. Pictures make them look so so. But in person, the SMS might be the best looking system I have seen.
I found this classic description of a master system on the Segabits forum by user Centrale
I love the Sega Master System. Slick and sophisticated, its clean lines and crisp colors suggest an elegant lady assassin ridin' dirty on corinthian leather seats to a ballroom in order to eliminate the latest target. It's got a flow chart printed on it that lets you know how the shit goes down on a day-to-day. Its color scheme: black and red, the colors of a brotherman on the run. It says to me, "fun is serious business."

It's the last SEGA system I need unless I go crazy and start with variations or pick up an SG 1000 or SC 3000.

April, you crazy son of a bitch!
I've picked up so much this month!
Stopped at my favorite flea market to trade some stuff.
Traded WC Battlechest, Diablo Battlechest, guild wars 2, swtor, unreal 2, need for speed pro street,
some other need for speed, sim city 4, morrowind, hyperblade, GBA-GC link, 360 av cords, 360 wired controllers with no breakaways, 2 wii stands.
(Didn't see the point in keeping PC games, I have ISO's of them)
Anyway, what I got today:
Sega Saturn Virtua Stick (been looking for one all month)
Dreamcast controller with VMU,
Blockbuster Genesis 6-button,
Pokemon Pinball (it even has the battery cover ;D)
X-Men - genesis,
Final Fantasi XII collectors edition,
Space Invaders - N64
Gundum Battle Assault 2 (looking for this for ages)- PS1
Gex 3- PS1
Dino Crisis - PS1
Also ordered a Saturn Memory Card Plus for $10 earlier today!
-
Sega Saturn Virtua Stick (been looking for one all month)
Every time I see Virtua stick, my heart skips because I process it as the twin sticks. I recently got a virtua stick thrown in on a deal and I'm seemed way too excited because I totally thought he was talking about the twin sticks for a moment.
-
So... I just got Back to the Future: The Game, Cargo Commander and Dungeon Hearts on Steam via the Indie Royale.
I was waiting to buy Back to the Future from Telltale's site but they haven't had a sale there in what seems like years. :(
-
My wife made the plunge and bought The Boy Skylanders: Giants and 3 more figures. This could be a money pit.

Yup. I looked into it, and it looks like it could be fun... but I just can't even get started buying all that stuff...

Pid, also! BTTF has been on sale with GOG quite a number of times, but this bundle seemed decent for the price.

I guess this means anyone can take my spare PID key if they want. :p

Plus Dishonored, E.Y.E.: Divine Cybermancy, and Amnesia: The Dark Descent during recent Steam sales, plus Gothic 1-3 on sale from GOG. All dirt cheap!

went out to some garage sales today and left with but two things, Jack and shit... and Jack left town.
hopefully I'll have more luck tomorrow... don't think I'll find much video game related stuff but I'll being going to a Toy, Model, & Film Expo so I should be finding some neat stuff at least.

I feel ya. I haven't been able to drop hardly any cash on gaming. I have a few preorders set up... but not sure I can afford that SHMUP from Play Asia in July or w/e. I have to be really careful with my budget until I get in the swing of paying a mortgage.

Ah, thanks for noticing! I was pretty sleepy when I wrote up that post, so please excuse the mistake. I've read that the PS3 version is a bit different, so I'm wondering if I should eventually pick up that version (or swap it out), but who knows when I'll get around to that one...

Yeah, I think that'd definitely require some adjustment. Just wait 'til tax time comes - I've seen what my Mom pays, and I'm always like O.O
In my case, I mostly got knocked down hard by my motherboard shipping during the worst possible time (backorder for like a month and a half, argh), then getting sick about a week later, and having to take time off of work. We don't get sick pay, and so my check that week was literally $156... and bills were also all due around that time. Still haven't fully gotten things back to normal either, since silly things like groceries keep getting in the way, and now that I'm riiight on the edge of getting it all built back up, bills are coming due again. Hooray!
When I told my roommate where my finances were at, he goes, "Jesus, really? I don't think you've been that low since... uh, well, since I've known you."

But did you know that being a grown-up you can cook and eat bacon at pretty much anytime you want? That's pretty sweet and I think makes up for everything else.

Got Art of Fighting 3 (MVS) in the post :D

Traded 3 Gameboy games and promo inserts for:

Some ESSENTIALS there for the NES. All of them except for Rampage are MUST-HAVES. I hope you enjoy those superb titles. Rampage is a lot of fun too, but in short bursts. Extended gameplays get too repetitive, IMO.

Some ESSENTIALS there for the NES. All of them except for Rampage are MUST-HAVES. I hope you enjoy those superb titles. Rampage is a lot of fun too, but in short bursts. Extended gameplays get too repetitive, IMO.
Yeah, as soon as the guy mentioned Duck Tales and Legend of Zelda I was on board and he just kept adding games lol, turned out to be a pretty good deal!
I remember playing Rampage when I was around 6 and I know I'm gonna have some sort of nostalgic feeling when I pop it in lol. Same can be said for the other titles as well, I think this was one of the best trades this month, and there has been a ton! lol

Yep. I'm one of the guys who started/runs RGS. Some of us rode down from OKC together. It wasn't a huge event, but the vendors there had some solid stuff.

Hmm. Well you already have that red shell. So I'd say the silver one and swap it to the red case w/ the backlight.

That's cool. I heard Billy from GameChasers announce that he was going to be there. I wanted to go. But I am in the process of moving to DFW and have already did the drive so much lately, I didn't want to drive it again.
-
I'm pretty sure Billy is in RGS. We have a group in TX now. One of the guys from the OK group moved to Dallas and is running TX for us. You should check it out! If you need some info PM me.

My wife was trash digging today and found Luigi's Mansion and Pokemon Colosseum on GameCube. The Pokemon Colosseum had the bonus disc with it. Anyone have a spare Pokemon Colosseum Bonus Disc case laying around?

Congrats!
Touch Detective (and its sequel) is a quirky title - I hope you like it! I feel bad 'cause it's one of the very few games I sold back, but mostly because I finished it in a very short amount of time. But it's very cute. And for some reason, the mushroom companion ("Nameko" in Japan) is *extremely* popular in Japan. I saw him everywhere and kept thinking, "but the games were only okay!"

I'm curious how age of empires plays with the stylus. I imagine it could be done very well.

I was hoping the same, but when I played Age of Empires: The Age of Kings, it felt somewhat closer to Fire Emblem...

Broke down and bought a couple games. This collecting addiction is horrible sometimes....
Found Mass Effect 3 (360) brand new, in a bargain bin and decided to finally pick it up. And, I happened upon a sweet deal on Revelations: The Demon Slayer (GBC)! Chalk up another MegaTen game get for Scott!
I've been wanting Revelations: The Demon Slayer for awhile now and can't wait to get some game time on it. This one was on Amazon, newly listed and for half of what everyone else was asking for it. So I snagged it up.
