Upload them to imgur.com and copy the BBCode markup.

I personally use photobucket.com
And thank you! I've been running across a lot of cheap DS games recently. Now is probably the best time to collect for it.

Picked up the Castlevania Lords of Shadow Collection on PS3. Adding another title to the Castlevania collection and now I have Lords of Shadow on 3 platforms... Even though I'm not a huge fan of the game.

Lords of Shadow is one of those games that you either love or have I feel like. I personally loved it, especially the first one. The second one was meh though imo.
-
See. I liked what I played of Lords of Shadow 2 a lot more than I did of the first one. But I loved Mirror of Fate, can't wait to play the HD version in this collection.
I also turned off QTEs in LoS2. And I think it make the game a lot more enjoyable.

The thing that sort of spoiled LoS2 for me were the forced stealth portions and the final boss/ending. But overall I'd give it a 7/10 overall. QTEs never bother me (Shenmue is my favorite game after all :p), but that's cool you can turn them off, did not realize that.
I've never played Mirror of Fate, but hear it is really good. Hopefully you got the LoS Collection new; I bought it used thinking the extra content was on disk, it is not :(. It is a code that can only be redeemed once. Really pissed me off.

Ps1:
- Klonoa (disc only)
- MediEvil (disc only)

Oh ya. I got it new, it was marked down to $15 at my grocery store. Once I heard that it was LOS packed in with DLC codes, I knew I'd need to find it new.

No lines in the screen I hope? I have a couple Game Boys sitting in a box that I'm saving for parts, because the screen on my original was getting full lines of dead pixels.

Beavis and Butthead for Sega Genesis CIB for free!
Also my CIB copy of Burn:Cycle for the Phillips CD-i arrived from ebay today ($13 shipped).

It's my first (and possibly last) CD-i game. :)

I played it back in the day and liked it, but as a kid I couldn't afford it. So it was a no brainer to get it now. hehe

$4 for each.
-
Not a whole bunch recently, but my birthday's on the 21st so I look forward to that :D
PC
Postal 2 - £2
Neverwinter Nights: Deluxe Edition - £1
PS1
Iznogoud - £1.50
Can anyone tell me about this game? I've played it and it's a relatively crappy side-scroller but I can find next to nothing on it online.
-
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 for the Genesis and Omega Boost for the PS1 came in the mail today.
-
I haven't had much luck recently, but here's my recent finds.
(http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j238/foxhack/DP/finds-2014-10-26.jpg)
From late last month, this cost me $3. It's a PS2 / Saturn / PC Keyboard controller adapter for the Dreamcast. I haven't tested it yet.
(http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j238/foxhack/DP/finds-2014-11-05a.jpg)
Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Rose Tattoo (PC) - $3
The box is beat up and it had some tape all over, but I removed it. This is the second part in the series, so I'm glad to have found it.
(http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j238/foxhack/DP/finds-2014-11-05b.jpg)
Barbie Race & Ride - $1
Spec Ops: Ranger Elite - $2
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (sealed) - $1 (!!!!)
The Sims 4 - $2 (!!!!)
Don't judge me on that Barbie purchase. It was a buck! There were lots of other PS1 games but they were all missing the manuals so I only grabbed this one. Spec Ops and COD are from the same booth. The Sims 4 was a gamble, it was from a booth where they had lots of returned items from some store (slashed UPCs, opened discs) and I grabbed it just in case nobody activated the key. And I tested the key and it's not activated so I'm gonna trade it (and COD:MW2) for some Steam stuff. The Sims 4 sells for $40!
(http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j238/foxhack/DP/finds-2014-11-05c.jpg)
Don't get excited. These are all case and manuals only. I bought 'em for trading to people who might need them, they had quite a few more but they were damaged or torn beyond repair. $2 total.
-
Wow thats still a heck of a deal!

What a good game you got! It didn't sell too well in Japan from what I remember in the news, but its a good beat-em-up nonetheless.

Recently bought God of War: Origins Collection for PS3. $10 new at Fred Meyer.

Got Heavenly Sword from GS, and should be getting Gulity Gear XX Accent Core Plus for the Wii in a few days, once they get from one of their stores 100 miles away. It's disk only, but I'll taking considering how hard it is to find in my area.

Got surprised by the wife with a complete copy of 3D Dot Game Heroes. I've been wanting this for a while but I've never seen it. I wish I'd never found this $5 PS3. I'm having to buy so many games for it.

Man, I love that poster but I'm not sure where I would put it. :-\ May end up ordering it anyway & figuring it out once it gets here. ;)

There's no copies of GG within 100 miles of me, so I'd say it's hard to find anywhere. I'd make an exception for that one too (and I'm kicking myself for not grabbing the non-Plus version a few months back when a store near me had it for $2 :( ).

Yeah, it seems like there's only one other copy of this game in California down past San Diego, so I feel like I got lucky that no one picked it up over the last few months. On a side note, I heard that Accent Core Plus is quite expensive for a wii (and even a ps2) game even for disc only, so I'm guessing its pretty rare.

Reminds me, I don't think I told this story here - a couple weeks back I saw that a GS store in my region (within 100 miles) was showing that it had a copy of Ju-On for the Wii in stock. I swung by my local store intending to see if they would get it transferred over but forgot the info I needed (what store had it, etc.). That was on a Weds, and I knew I was stopping back by that Friday anyway to pickup Bayonetta 2 so I just told the guy I'd bring the info then. So I did, and when he looks it up he goes "Hrm, it shows here a different store has it, but maybe your info from the web is more accurate so I'll try calling that store first." Turns out that store DID have it - but someone from a different store had already gotten it transferred for one of their customers. :(

I picked this little treasure up on my last visit to my local Goodwill for only $4, along with Terminator: Salvation (DVD), Metallica: Garage Inc. (CD), and Star Ocean: Till the End of Time (PS2) (which was my 100th PS2 title in my collection! This is a first for me getting into the triple-digits!). It's one of those over-sized coffee-table books. I love Goodwill!
I also ebayed MechAssault: Phantom War for DS. It was on my top 10 most wanted games list, and it's dirt-cheap. So there really was no reason not to get it. I loved the XBox titles, I'm hoping this one is just as destructive and fun of a playground as those were.

Oh man, that really sucks considering how rare of a game that one is for the wii. I recently hit a few Gamestops up in the San Fernando Valley since I had time to kill before a ps3 deal with a friend. In those shops, most of the Wii games were stuff I already had, games were marked as new that didn't have the manual, or in some cases like ps3 games( like a cib valkyria chronicles) they increased the price of the game past the official price( so it was $25). I tried to ask them about these problems, but the employees just ignored me or wouldn't answer my questions and I walked out empty-handed. I can honestly say that their website can be pretty screwed up when you try to pick up pre-owned games at stores, since sometimes when I put in a request to hold those games, sometimes the employees couldn't find it after several hours, but then when I got to the store and asked in person, they would have it out in less than 5 minutes.

Bought from a local collector for $100 out the door. Shenmue II alone made it a great deal :)
-
Shenmue II had a DC English release? or is that Jap?
-
Looks EU on the picture
-
Shenmue II had a DC English release? or is that Jap?
Well, they were planning a DC North American release for the game. However, the Dreamcast got discontinued so they only had time for a Japanese+ the European Dreamcast release, which has the original Japanese voices with subs. The version we got in America was for the original Xbox, and had its own dub for voices, and apparently sold poorly as well.

Yeah, it's a shame they didn't just give us the same subbed version Europe got, but luckily we did end up getting and dubbed on the XBOX, although many people believe part of the reason Shenmue died as a series was because of it being released on the original XBOX here in NA.
I have wanted the PAL Shenmue II for such a long time, and am so happy I finally have it. I would like to own every release of Shenmue someday, this is a good start.
-
I knew Shenmue II had a Jap release and Xbox release but not Europe. How much does the EU Shenmue II go for?
-

It's pretty expensive actually since I don't think too many copies were made. The lowest I've found that was complete was on Amazon for $85+ 4 shipping, and most of the other listings are in the $90-100 range. Even the japanese version of the game goes for mostly $40+, although I found one copy around $32 bucks. If you have the money+ methods to import it, I would get the euro dreamcast version, but if you don't want to spend too much, then stick with the xbox version.
-
yeah I've actually passed on quite a few copies of shenmue 2 on xbox here. don't really know why now that I think of it, they're usually like 5 bucks or even cheaper when I find them
-
is shenmue II better than the first one?
-

It definitely boils down to personal opinion, but yes, I liked Shenmue II more than the first. It probably has to do with how much better the pacing is in the second, but also Lucky Hit lol.
-

Yeah, I find them quite often too, usually for really cheap. I think they typically go for like $15 -$20 CIB online, which still beats how much the import versions cost.

I actually just got back from the place I see it most often, but they didn't have it there. I was actually kinda disappointed, lol...
I did end up snagging a few things tho...
DS
Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass
360
Dark Void
Wii
Resident Evil 4 (for free! :D )

I've had an interesting & nice couple of days game-finds wise. :) Yesterday I stopped in my local BB to trade in a couple - I don't want to get back into trading a lot, but I'm low on gaming funds & don't want to cancel my Smash Bros. - plus the 2 I traded were both new-ish games I haven't gotten to yet & I got my money back out of them, so it's not so bad. Anyway, afterwards I was wandering around looking at their game section & I made my way over to their guides. I saw they still had the CE of the Dead Space 3 guide on the shelf - scanned it with the BB app on my phone & it said it was no longer available.
--Side note: for anyone that doesn't know, store are told every so often by the guide publishers to destroy the guides. Basically, they are reimbursed for the ones that don't sell & they are supposed to destroy them in exchange. The way this used to work is that the system would drop the price of them to .01, and the employees would get a list & go and pull them off the shelf. So it was fairly easy if you had a store that wasn't really on the ball & cashiers that didn't know/didn't care to find out which ones dropped, grab a bunch and buy them for practically nothing. Then BB decided instead of dropping the price to .01, the system would just say "not for sale". OK, now back to the story. ;) --
So I took it to the front, grabbed a soda on the way and played dumb. Girl rings up the guide, it says "not for sale", she looks confused & calls someone else. They call someone else, that guy goes to the back & talks to "the inventory guy" and finally comes back. He explains to me that it was supposed to have been pulled & destroyed (which I knew) but says if I buy 3 sodas he'll give it to me. I grab 2 more and am out the door at a little over $5. Would have paid that for the guide, so I'm happy. :)
The last night my wife and I went to Wal-Mart. She found an opened glow-in-the-dark Skylander figure on the clearance/damaged rack with no price. After finally finding someone who could check the price (the guy in the electronics dept. looked scared to death when I asked him & mumbled "this is only my 3rd day...") we found out it was $2. :D It hasn't been hurt, only the backing & front "shell" of the package had been removed, it was still in its inner plastic and had the card & everything.
Then today was the biggie. Hit my closest GS just checking out a few Wii games I noticed the inventory tracker said they had. They were all disk-only so it looked like a bust - then when scanning the shelf something jumped out at me - One Piece: Adventure Unlimited. :o For you non-Wii collectors, this game is RARE. I snatched it & checked out the case, everything looked pristine. Get to the front & the guy says it just came in, and that another employee had almost bought it this morning. He shows me the disk - immaculate, looks untouched. I left VERY happy! ;D

I found a copy of this at a GS around a year ago. Thought about getting it, but seeing that it was selling there for around the same price as Ebay, I passed on it. Have not seen it since, at least in the wild.

I really wanted to get this game back at launch a few years ago, since I was a huge One Piece fan back then. I don't know why I haven't gotten around to buying it yet, but I've seen how cool of a game it is and I'm pretty surprised its still the same price as it was when it was new.

I used a coupon on it to knock it down to about $35 before tax. Given the like-new condition of it, I felt OK about paying that much for it. :)

Just added 1 lonely GBC game: Dragon Ball Z Legendary Super Warriors
It was for free ^^

Got a couple more over the past few days, Turok and Metal Gear Rising Revengeance for the 360. Turok was £2 and Metal Gear was £5. Not bad for either. Revengeance was one I've been looking to get for a while now and so far I'm really loving it

I know a couple local collectors around me who have around 1400 PS2 games in each of their collections. It is certainly a sight to behold, especially in person.
-
The other day I bought Sonic Mega Collection Plus and Intellivision Lives both for PS2. Never had an Intellivision or played any games on it so it'll be good to check out.

I'll warn you that the Sonic Mega Collection Plus emulation of games for PS2 is not as good as the Gamecube version of Sonic Mega Collection, but its still a decent collection overall if you can manage to unlock all of the games.

Not sure who all pays attention to my feed but I added a few items lately!
First, I made a score on three controllers that have been on my wish list. A new in box Freak series Dragon controller for the Xbox (leaving only the Alien infection as my last unopened freak series controller) a Sega Genesis arcade power stick and a brand new Crystal Sony PS3 controller from Japan.
Secondly, I was at a pawn store looking around and they had some Wii U's marked at $249 or $25 on layaway. I went to the counter to put it on layaway and the girl said it was $140 out the door. I gave her the money and went out the door!
Next, I made a trade with a guy on Nintendo Age for some NES games. I scored Jetsons, Galactic crusader, and Crystal mines. Its been a while since I added any NES carts to the wall so its nice to do so!
The wife ordered me a brand new Zelda Monopoly. We have yet to open it and play it but Im looking forward to it.
Picked up a Sephiroth new in package from Anruiukimi.
Finally narrowed the gap on my SMS NFR list by picking up Space harrier leaving 9 total to finish it.

Purchase from Kenny arrived today.

@ soera
Jetsons is a good pick up. I really like that game.
$140 for a WiiU is a damn steal. Well done. Now you can get some of these sweet-ass games we've been talking about. Welcome to current gen.

Not much for today in particular, but I did find Halo 2 on Xbox, Prince of Persian Forgotten Sands on 360, and Lord of the Rings Conquest on 360 at the Salvation Army for a buck a piece. Don't know if those last two are any good as I might keep them. Happy for the price though as just before this I had noticed they had some poor PS2 games up in the counter for like 7 bucks a pop, but now they are back to just not caring about the prices. This one in particular has always been rather bipolar with its pricing lol
Shame the one that tends to get more games in is pricing them higher lately along with any systems. 50 bucks for a PS1? No...that's not good...

Yeah I don't get that at all at thrift stores. Sometimes my goodwill near my house does that bipolar pricing+practices where a music album you want has no disc in it, or they want to charge $90 for a as-is xbox 360 in the box, or $60 for a as-is original xbox, while other times I found working consoles for $10 or less. I don't like how there is no way to test to see if your purchase works before you leave the store, and their moving of items to shopgoodwill.com to get more revenue. One of the employees I talked too pretty much told me that hold items back to put in my Goodwill store since he disagrees with their policy on the online auction site and wants to give people the option to purchase some stuff for cheap.

One Piece: Unlimited Adventure (Wii)
The World Ends With You (DS)
Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley (3DS)
Fisher Price: Firehouse Rescue (NES)
And there you have it. A secret uncovered.

Oh I did forget another I got in. I ordered from the ddrgame.com website and order myself a more heavy duty dance pad. I thought it was gonna be abit thicker as it said EVA foam and being that I've used EVA foam for craft projects, I was expecting it to have a good bit of added padding, but it is far more durable feeling compared to the default pad and it works on GC/Wii, PC, PS2, and Xbox. Now to get going on my exercise routine lol

I would actually be cool for that if some of those hard to get games like Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Kirby's Return to Dream Land, or Elebits. I know that Gamestop usually doesn't do many reprints for their games, but it would still be cool in terms of lowering the price overall for the specific game and letting more people play those games.

I've never really played DDR more than like once or twice in all the time it has been around, once in the arcade and once trying my sisters on Xbox, but I'd love to have one of those full arcade machines. I'd be awful at it, but those are some cool machines lol

I'm assuming it's "R" as in "Remake", seeing as it's a remake of Tales of Hearts for the DS. Tales of Innocence on the DS also got an "R" version for the Vita, though I haven't heard anything about a localization for it. I hope we'll get it over here eventually, maybe we will if Hearts R does well enough.

Tales of Hearts R... because screw letting another Xenoblade happen. I was even given someone's pre-order. :-X But only because they were supposed to have 2 in stock. ;)
-

I don't think this will happen for one reason, it's a handheld. Handheld games, even really rare ones rarely fetch the kind of money they would if they were on a console. Still, I can see it maintaining its value for a while.
-
Had a decent delivery night the other night so I went and bought a personal weakness item : Bayonetta 2. Been fantasizing about playing this game for weeks. Im going to start it soon now. :D

It still contains the recipe of being mostly a collector's item among physical games. Niche title, unpopular platform, and low print run. :D Although, I will give you that handheld holds less value in the collecting world, typically. I'm trying to think of a handheld game that now exceeds retail value.
-
Went to spend the last of my credit at the game store, so I picked up two hardback strategy guides the guy was gonna put out, the Twilight Princess one still wrapped up! I really like the minimal style to them with just the Tri-Force symbol and design on the fronts. Also I kinda noticed that Skyward Sword is half the size. I wonder if that means Twilight Princess is twice as packed with content? I remember Skyward Sword lacking abit, but it's been too long since I played either.
Also grabbed two more DDR games to add some variety to my exercise routine, bringing me up to 4 games. Not sure how many more are left to grab along with any PS1 releases.
And finally when I went to pay off my Smash Bros and Link Amiibo pre-order, I grabbed Motorstorm on PS3 for a buck, because it was a buck.
(http://i.imgur.com/kL5oHO7.jpg)
CRAP...I just realized I already had DDRMAX2. I apparently read my VGcollect app wrong lol Noooo! 2 dollars wasted! Wasted I say!
-
I haven't been able to buy much in awhile, but did just snag Tales of Hearts R :)
Handheld or no, since GameStop controls the supply and distribution, they'll probably do what they did with Xenoblade and hold onto half the stock, then sell them later at a massive premium.
-
Got my copy of Tales of Hearts R in the mail. Also picked up some cheap PS3 games, Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage and Quantum Theory.
-
Just bought the original Far Cry and Far Cry 3 Deluxe for Steam for a bit less than six dollars. I traded some other stuff to get the cash so they basically only cost me a buck. :p
-
I gave in and ordered Dragon Age: Inquisition. Technically a pre-order, but it's out in 3 days and I'm playing the series on PC, so it's all digital anyway :p
-
Recently got ToeJam & Earl and Toki: Going Ape Spit for Genesis. Found a couple N64 game manuals as well!

I've heard great things about BioShock. Here's to hoping it lives up to the hype. I'm a big sci-fi fan, so it's right up my alley.
I've always been a sucker for super-hero games, since I'm a lifelong comic fan. And I've heard that Thor is one of the better ones, and done by Sega. Looking forward to it.
Brain Age 2 was only $1 at GameStop, so why not? I've never played a Brain Age game before, but from what I understand it's just a collection of fun little brain-teasers and puzzles.
And I needed a new handheld game, because I'm blowing through MechAssault: Phantom War in no time. Double Dragon was cheap, and who doesn't like Double Dragon?

Getting Japanese versions of the games can be cheaper as long as they aren't text heavy games, and I also reccomend imports because a ton of titles, especially shmups/ fighting/action. You should get the action replay 4m plus since it bypasses region locking on your console so you can play games from japan, as well as enabling 1 megabyte and 4 megabyte support so that you can play games that use those ram add-ons.

Yeah uh, I'mma delete all your extra posts. :p
Yay!
Don't be in such a rush to get your post counts up there so quickly, new members :-\
Trust me, it'll get there before you know it ;D
Not only that but, honestly & IMO - it's always obvious & transparent to the rest of the community when this is being done...and, it really doesn't make/give the best kind of 1st impression ;)

That might have been an attempt to edit the other post, though. Since the removal of the delete button, the quote and edit buttons have changed place, so I sometimes accidentally hit quote instead too. :-\

Thrift shop pickup today, an SNES with just two controllers. I have extra cords so no big deal and only ten bucks. Not bad and it worked when I got it back home. Thinking of maybe turning this into a custom case project. Green top for the case, chrome gold bottom, and gold for the extras, get a nice looking Zelda style going on unless I figure out a different theme.

I had been setting aside money for this game for a couple of months now and finally purchased it! This game has fascinated me since I read about it on the Internet in elementary school and I am happy to finally have it in my collection. I plan on getting BS Zelda maps 1 and 2 as well.

Forgive my ignorance, but what Zelda game is this? It's obviously a hack or unreleased game, but I'm unfamiliar with most of those.

Lucked out at the local thrift store:
(http://i62.tinypic.com/1r83k6.jpg)
One is a standard Cobra PS1&2 & Sega Saturn compatible light gun.
The other is the mother of all PS1&2 light guns.
The Super Cobra.
Auto reload, force feedback, guncon and justifier modes. This puppy works with EVERY PS1&2 light gun game ever released.
Both are super accurate once calibrated. The guns even have their own game independent calibration capabilities and the lights on the side of the gun light up when you fire them.
I got these together for...
$8 total in like new condition. :)

Yeah, I read (Reddit) that Wal-mart employees will probably lose their bonuses for this incident. FYI things like stealing/damage/inventory profit not matching because of like this incident will result in negative effects to the workers esp. their bonuses. They didn't do anything wrong but follow their guideline but are going to get the short end of the stick.

So we're shaming people for taking advantage of a perfectly legitimate deal? It's not their fault that Wal-Mart responds in such a way. Wal-Mart are the jerks for taking out of their employee's paychecks. It's not like Wal-Mart can't take the hit.
And how do you create an Amazon Marketplace listing? I thought you could only post items in an already created listing? I'd also hope that the price matching only applies to Amazon's own prices, and Wal-Mart wasn't stupid enough to include secondary market listings as a price match.

It wasn't directly their Paycheck but their bonuses. I also read someone brought in 100 box of Mac & Cheese and tried to Price match it from Amazon for 1cent each.

Not sure how legitimate it is. At least for the original person placing the fake Amazon ad. People are putting up fake ads on Amazon to price match with Wal-Mart. That's not legit. That is fraud at the very least.
Now, if you stumbled across that ad and had no knowledge that it is a fake ad, but I'm not sure how many people can claim to that...

Agreed on that. Didn't read that far back.
It's not hard. The company I work for started selling some stuff on Amazon. They mainly police stuff once it is up. Not before.

Yeah... Walmart brings in 405 billion a year. That's $1,108,829,568.79 a day.
I doubt that the $310 loss on ~1000 PS4s takes anyone's bonus.
If anyone misses a bonus, it's because Walmart is being a dick, not me. I don't think they give anyone bonuses that isn't full time anyway. What percent of employees do you think are full time?
We're basing this on a Kotaku article. They're known for they're investigative reporting.
I bought a cheap PS4 because I could. Didn't steal it. Didn't hold a gun to anyone's head. Just asked and they sold it. The only thing I'm guilty of is being a cheap bastard that wouldn't have bought a PS4 at all if it wasn't cheap.
If you think I'm evil, I'm sorry. If it changes your opinion of me, lose my number.
*EDIT: Just talked to a Walmart Store Manager. He thinks the losing bonus thing is silly. "That's like me taking $5000 from a billionaire."

Hopefully lightening up the mood here, this is what I picked up today:

Wal-Mart can take the hit. It doesn't mean they will. I've worked at big box stores, the things regional and store managers do to fake a profit is disgusting. I never accused anyone here of creating the listing, or thinking someone was eeeeeeeeevil for buying the item at that price; but there are people out there that abused the hell out of it.
And it's easy to create listings for products at Amazon. I can create one for most items (and I've made some for import movies I've sold there) in five minutes, all you need is to create a seller account, which requires you to add a bank account. Most stores, like Best Buy, will tell you that they only price match the actual store's price, not third party listings (which this was); apparently Wal-Mart didn't have that in their price match rules, so someone created one with a fake price and boom. Apparently the seller also had a confusing name which added to the trouble.
*shrugs* I speak from experience after getting screwed over by managers time and time again. So yes, I worry about the employees.
-
Walmart included the words "Amazon Marketplace" in their announcement. They should have seen this coming.

Hah, I like that comparison. But it's really stupid if they take away people's bonus for going with their damn store policies. If you don't want something to be done, don't say that it can be done. They should have let the marketplace out of the policy.

I snagged a couple of used 360 games last night in anticipation of getting the system back (supposedly today). A local GS had nice copies of Bullet Witch & Akai Katana. Unfortunately BW is missing the manual, but since it was only $5 & this was the only local store that had it (and it at least had its case & a really good condition disk) I went ahead & grabbed it. Will just be on the lookout for a manual to complete it.
Oh! I also grabbed a used/complete Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow. Will be returning the game today & keeping the case - I figure since GS doesn't care if the case is there or not anyway AND I bought my cart-only copy from a GS years ago, they owe me. :)

I still love ya Turf!

Not evil?
Who am I to judge?
I'd have done the same, though ;)

First try these didn't work with Area 51. The problem for me was I plugged them in after I turned the console on. They have to be plugged in before. Probably not the problem you had but I figured I'd throw it out there.

I believe my issue was some sort of hardware incompatibility. Nothing other than the official Konami guns would work on their games, but the Guncon stuff worked fine.
Oh boy, 24 The Game. That's something I wish had gotten a PC port. It runs fine on the PS2 but it's kinda weird feeling, like it wasn't properly converted to work on NTSC systems (the dev was European.)

The regular cobra is a Konami mode only. The Super is selectable but you have to make the proper selection before powering the system on. If you change your selection after power up the gun will not be recognized as either.
Plowed through Area 51 with the boy last night. It was glorious. Even if his accuracy (with a properly calibrated light gun) was only 17%.

Got Super Smash Bros for Wii U controller bundle along with my Link amiibo... however they can't find my Marth one, so I got a free Samus and will get a call when they find it. I also grabbed Spirit Camera: the cursed memoir for $4.
-
Here's a picture of that console I got for my birthday in case anyone wanted to see it

-
Picked up Marth and Villager. I'm on the edge on whether I want to dive all in for Amiibo's and eventually collect them all or not. I at least made sure to pick up the ones that are looking to be more rare ones, so even if I decide to maybe not keep them, the trade value is still good on them.
-
So I buckled and bought the rest of the stupid Amiibos lol.
-
It feels like Christmas came a month early this year lol. Got everything I preordered online today, plus picked up Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire which came with free Charizard X and Y plushes as a preorder bonus! And Clock Tower was an Ebay purchase that arrived today. Good day to be a gamer 8)

Yeah... Smash.... and all the damn Abobos. Raman for the whole family!
-
Jealous of everyone posting Smash pictures.. All I added over the past week has been
-Rune Factory 2
-Pokemon Alpha Sapphire
-Halo: Master Chief collection
-Kirby's Return to Dreamland
Don't beat yourself up. Return to Dreamland is a good pickup and something of a rare item. :)

Must, not...buy anymore...OH GOD IT'S GOT ME! EVERYONE RUN! THE AMIIBO'S ARE COMING!

Though actually I am leaning more to side of not a full collection to save myself abit and many would be opened. Think I'll just focus on characters I like and characters that might get me stuff in other games. So of the first batch, I'm probably gonna focus on Mario, Samus, Peach, and Fox. Mario games are guaranteed, we know Star Fox is coming, and maybe Samus will get that game eventually lol

Oh you're one of those guys. . . :(
I love Melee, but I think it's dumb how controller exploits have become the reason that game is considered "the best Smash game" by many. It is certainly better than Brawl for many different reasons, but Smash 3DS and Wii U are better than Melee imo because they made it competitive without requiring unintended controller inputs as a way of being competitive. Just my two cents.

So I'm an idiot and got the free shipping from Toys R Us for Smash Bros Wii U. I could have picked it up in store, but at the time I thought I wouldn't care about getting it later than release date? Yeah I want to play pretty badly now >:(

Well those guys are pretty much the best for Melee, and it looks like they won't be as useful for Smash Bros Wii U on the tier list. Nevertheless, SSB Wii U is turning out to be a pretty fun game so far and you should try it out at some point.

Should have done Best Buy since they had free express shipping for any smash order.

Well Toys R Us had that free Amiibo with pre-order deal going on. Definitely a good deal! Tracking hasn't update yet so for all I know it could be here today, but I'm not holding my breath. The worst part is that I was down by the closest Toys R Us yesterday for a birthday so I could have just picked it up.
Oh well. Hindsight is always 20/20 and all that.

Is Bestbuy doing the 3 for $30 or is it only Toys R US? Any idea when it will end?

Even I got Smash and I don't even have a Wii U!
... actually a buddy orders stuff at my mailbox and he got Smash and the Yoshi / Kirby Amiibos. :p

You paid 2 Euros too much. I regret paying four dollars for my copy. It's a horrible reimagining / port of a broken yet playable game. Just awful. :(

Mighty Final Fight, Strider, and Bionic Commando CIB Sealed for $10 ($13 shipped).
But it's not what you think...

Still it beats paying $130 for a loose copy of Mighty Final Fight.

Reminds me of the versions they have on PS2. You can pay about $120 total for King of Dragons and Knights of the Round on SNES. . . or, just buy the compilation for the PS2 :D

Witcher 2 was a freebie as part of GoG.com's Fall Sale, and Bard's Tale & Nox were both part of the sale. Iron Man 2 was a cheap eBay purchase. And Evergrace is another 99Gamers.com acquisition. I've been a big fan of From Software's stuff since King's Field and Armored Core on PS1, so I'm looking forward to it.

So, the more reviews I read of it = the more I've been wanting to get a (PS4) copy of the game Sherlock Holmes: Crimes & Punishments.
Of course, I've been seeing both new + used copies of it - left & right...when I wasn't interested in or looking for it --and-- of course, now that I'm wanting a copy = none of my local stores has any (PS4) copies (there's 1 or 2 PS3 copies floating around); at any rate, I've just found a GS that's about a 30 minute drive (round-trip) for me = about 3 times the distance & time as my 'usual' stores - and, they've got a PS4 cib copy of it that they're holding to the side for me until I get there
so...
==> I'm off like a prom dress ;D

Traded a few doubles of atari 8-bit games and cx-40 joysticks for this boxed Atari 1050 drive. Only comes with the power supply, no data cable so I can't really test it. It seems to power on but that's the extent of it at the time. It's in good looking shape though.

I got my first PS4 game. Putty Squad. My wife bought it. She loved the 3DS game.
I also found 2 NES games I didn't have.
Super Pitfall and Rally Bike got checked off the list.

With a 5 dollar off coupon, I picked up a used copy of Sonic Lost World. I heard it was just alright, but really, after the disaster of Sonic Boom, a game that is just "alright", isn't so bad, plus I want to play the Zelda level lol
-
Found complete copies of Aladdin and NBA Jam T.E for the genesis recently. Glad to pick up Aladdin again it was one of my favorite games when I was a kid. Also got Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon off steam.

I saw you added that when I was adding something to my collection. I assumed you got it from the Sega Humble Bundle that just came out lol.

Yeah, it's the only game of theirs that I didn't own, and I was considering grabbing it during the winter sale... now I can trade off the extra copies of Sonic Racing Transformed and the Dreamcast collection for some other stuff I guess. :p
-
Just bought the Pokémon TCG off the 3DS eshop. I remember sinking countless hours in that game when it first came out. Also got The Witcher 2 for free from GOG ;D

That's a nice bonus w/ the Gameboy player - as long as it came w/ the disk. If not, not so much - the disk will actually run you more than the player itself. :-\

Don't feel too bad... I found a wavebird with a receiver at a yardsale for $5. Was super stoked until it shorted out my Wii. It's being repaired by Nintendo right now as we speak.
Picked up some stuff today:
Ranma 1/2 Super Famicom ($10)
Resident Evil 5 Hardcover Strategy Guide
And my Kirby's Dream Collection I ordered from Amazon came in today.

Traded my copy of Resident Evil 5 (which I hated after playing it for about an hour) for Area 51 on XBox. This isn't the light-gun arcade shooter, I already have that on my PS1. This is a first-person shooter based on the light-gun shooter.
Has anyone played this? It looked good, and it seemed to have good reviews. It sounded like a good single-player campaign, which is what I'm looking for. Can anyone here affirm this?
Got this in a trade on GameTZ. I was very surprised. I rarely get offers or responses to my offers on that website anymore. 99Gamers.com has been far more active. Glad to see some people are still using GameTZ for something other than keeping tabs on their collection.
I also got another copy of MechAssault for XBox because apparently mine was damaged. At closer inspection, it had the dreaded disc-rot. First time EVER I've come across this. And it's quite surprising considering it's as new as an original XBox game when I have plenty of Saturn and PS1 games that are fine.

Picked up this amazing little bargain off of eBay with some of my birthday money. Atari 2600 Jr. boxed with 2 boxed Zip Stik joysticks, and 7 games; Donkey Kong, Wizard of Wor, Frostbite, Dig Dug, Pele's Soccer, Frogger and Centipede (with manual). Came to £30, was so pleased when I found it!

Shadows of the Damned - £5
Halo 4 CE - £10
Driver: San Francisco - Gift :D
Star Wars: The Force Unleased - Gift :D
PS3
FIFA 10 - Gift :D
PC
ASUS U46S Gaming Laptop - A gift from a very excellent friend :D

Nice pickup!
And Fox you are right about my Ranma 1/2 being a bootleg. Although I did not know it at the time of purchase. Do we have a thread here in VG collect about how to spot these things (bootlegs) in the wild?
If not I'll create one. The game is what it claims to be on the label and is both recognized and playable on the Retron 5. Looking at it now though there are several easy ways to spot it as a fake even without opening it up (which I just did).
-
Nice pick up on that 2600! Wizard of Wor is a fantastic game, especially with two players.

I don't know why they haven't done it already. The PC port was apparently PAL only, and released 3 years after the games release, but there is a version available here: http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-BILLY/billy-hatcher-and-the-giant-egg . The game supports 360 controllers, has no widescreen support compared to the Gamecube version, and apparently there can be some bad frame-rate issues from too much action, but its a pretty decent port for the most part.

Yeah, it really needs an enhanced port for Steam to clean up its original pc release problems, but Sega is pretty slow at putting some of their most needed games on Steam and some of their decisions are pretty surprising, like the Valkyria Chronicles port on Steam.

You mean the best selling PC game of theirs from the past several years? Sega made a LOT of money thanks to that port. It topped the chart on Steam during its release date, and it sold incredibly well in third party sites. They took a chance on this and made an insane amount of cash.
Sega's PC division has kept afloat thanks to their purchase of The Creative Assembly (Total War dev). They've recently started fixing their honestly really crappy Dreamcast Collection by adding achievements and updating the games for modern hardware. Now if only they'd fix the crappy emulator in Genesis Classics...

They've recently started fixing their honestly really crappy Dreamcast Collection by adding achievements and updating the games for modern hardware. Now if only they'd fix the crappy emulator in Genesis Classics...
The reason I was actually pretty surprised was that the original PS3 release for Valkyria Chronicles sold below expectations during its release in North America, after Sega executives had though it was be a success similar to the Japanese release, which may be a reason why there is still complete copies of the game hanging in Gamestop bins for $20. Sega had hurt the series even more by making the sequel on the PSP which had little marketing and didn't probably sell well as it result depsite positive reviews. Then, for the third games, they decided to keep it in Japan and not localize the game at all to other countries, pretty much limiting the series significantly. I never thought that with Sega's practices on localizing games here that they would make a PC port of the original Valkyria Chronicles, due to the low sales of the original release, however it seems that the positive aspects of the game passed to consumers from others and contributed to a massive sales success. I hope that those sales numbers can motivate Sega to work on fixing up their PC games, and to release and localize more games for all platforms.

Shadow Warrior for the PS4

Witnessed the massive greediness of resellers tonight at Walmart. Waiting for my turn to pick up a single copy of Mario Kart 8, I saw a lady swoop up probably 25 copies of COD Advanced Warfare for XBOX One and run off, as well as many others grabbing the most games they could possible carry with no regard to what they grabbed. ::)
I hope they were denied those quantities. Walmart could still easily sell them, there are plenty of people who actually want them, or want to gift a copy to someone, but probably couldn't get one because of these opportunists.
Off to GameStop in a few hours to hopefully pick up Xillia 2 for $20. Hopefully I won't see the same BS going on there, I'm pretty sure they limit quantities.

So Toys R Us had the Black Friday ad that stated "ALL Skylander trap team starter packs - $37.50". I had planned to pick it up at Black Friday this year since I knew they were going to mark it down ... they did it for the previous 3 years. We got there at 130 today and was first in line (they were going to open up at 500). I get in there and on the shelf is one single copy of the Dark edition for the Wii. I snatch it up, continue shopping and eventually make it to the register. The poor new girl at the register tells me its $108 and I show her the ad. She calls over the floor manager who argues with me for 5-10 minutes but I guess realizes that I am right in asking it to meet the ad and so she finally does. I now own the Dark edition Trap Team for $37. :D
-
No pickups or Black Friday stuff for me today.
Spent the day helping my wife prepare dinner. Then enjoyed visiting with friends and family (had 3 game systems going at once!) Then had dinner. Went for a walk. Had pumkin pie (made from real pumkins not canned stuff.)
Played some Who Shot Johnny Rock on CDi as we all laughed at the acting.
I'm beat. I'm sure I missed some deals. But I didn't miss the madness. :)
Here in the Bay Area people get shot and trampled on days like today and tomorrow.

Last I heard (and when I bought mine), they were giving 30 days of free/trial PS+ with it. I'm not sure if that's changed and/or if it's included in all of the bundled PS4's, though.
Maybe time to change your sig, no? :P

finally starting a Vita collection with a PS Vita, 16 GB memory card ($20), Persona 4 Golden, and Gravity Rush also decided to get on PS4 Tomb Raider definitive edition for $20 just need to wait for it to be delivered now

finally starting a Vita collection with a PS Vita, 16 GB memory card ($20), Persona 4 Golden, and Gravity Rush also decided to get on PS4 Tomb Raider definitive edition for $20 just need to wait for it to be delivered now
what'd you get for the $20 - just the memory card?
I've been wondering if the PSTV's were going to phase out actual Vita sales...the way I see it - unless you're taking your gaming on the go a lot and/or if the games that you want to play aren't compatible with the PSTV, it doesn't seem to leave any reasons not to go with the PSTV; price-wise.
OLED or the newer & slimmer model?

Slim for $160 and honestly I just like having the option of not having to be near a tv. Not to mention I think the playstation TV should have just been more of an add-on for the PS4 kind of like the gameboy player as opposed to a stand alone console. And the Wii U has made me really appreciate remote play so I see that as a plus.
The memory card was 20.

I may go out again later, but so far this has been a pretty low key Black Friday.
Picked up Elder Scrolls Anthology last night at Best Buy for $15, and then hopped over to Gamestop an did their buy two, get one deal on used stuff. I'm going out again, but I doubt I'll get anything else in terms of Black Friday deals.
-
A guy from another forum just PM me this.....
In honor of you finally getting your ps4...
I have Wolfenstein (awesome) and BF4 that I dont play anymore.
They are yours if you want them.
4 games coming in and all were free ! (since I got a bundle deal)

Nothing earth-shattering around here either. I finally bought Zelda A Link Between Worlds though, since it was just $25, but that's pretty much it.

I almost bought CSI: Fatal Conspiracy (PC) at my US hometown's Gamestop, but the game was pennied out, and the manager wouldn't sell me the game. He said "we don't have the disc anymore" which I'm pretty sure was pure bullshit. :(
-
I couldn't resist myself and picked up the collections edition of Persona Q for the 3DS for Amazon... :-\
To many things to play as of recent!
-
So I grabbed the only copy of Tales of Xillia 2 at GS for the $20. :D

I grabbed some really cheap used games Weds, I'll have to go through those later & post them here.
Not a whole lot from BF - a few cheap games & a couple of movies, guess that was about it. I *thought* I had grabbed a pair of the Gold wireless headsets for the PS4 for $40 but when I got home I noticed they were the older PS3 ones that won't work on the 4. :( Apparently Target has them both under the same item # for some reason, so if your store had the Gold ones they were on sale for the same price - either mine didn't or they sold out. When I returned them last night I picked up new copies of Deadpool and Dirt 3 for the PS3 for $10/each. That's a really good price on both of those, so I was happy with that.
Was disappointed some more last gen games weren't on sale, especially some released earlier this year such as Lightning Returns, Deception IV, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. Amazon typically runs a LOT more games on lightning deals and they often do games like that that other retailers don't bother with. Oh well - maybe Monday?

Nevermind that last post if you saw it, I totally mixed up Landstalker with Beyond Oasis in my head. Instances like this are why I think we should still have the ability to delete our own posts.

I see you added Culdcept Saga on Friday - that's one of my all-time favorite games (well, technically I'd go with the PS2 version but the games are very similar and that may just be nostalgia talking ;) ).

I'm really happy to hear that :). I've never played either, but it looked good from online gameplay footage. I wish I had the PS2 version as well.

Dude! That's a $50+ game! I'd go as far as to call it rare-ish. Well done.
Throw some of that luck this way. I could use it while I hunt down the last 50 games.

-
Picked up 3 games I bought over the holiday for in-store pickup at BB today while I was on my lunch break. The rest had to be shipped:
Super Mario 3D World - b1g1 40% off select 1st party Wii U games - that stacked w/ my GCU 20% off discount, AND they took the 40% off of the more expensive Mario rather than Wind Waker HD (which they're shipping)? Yes please! :D
Wolfenstein (PS4) - $5 after sale/discount/RZ certs. Also ordered the add-on CE from Bethesda for $50 (half price), can't wait for that to get here. :)
Murdered: Soul Suspect (PS4) - $12 after sale/discount
-
I got a megaman mini helment replica free of charge (loot crate exclusive) from a friend free of charge. Its is limited, but there are tons on ebay. I would get them while the're cheap. They are sure to skyrocket.

Picked up Hitman 2: Silent Assassin (Black Label. I don't want none of that "greatest hits" garbage!) and Hitman: Blood money. Only cost me 2.50 each so how could I not!
-
Just picked up a FREE Xbox 360 from the dumpster. I already have a 360 - the second wave white tank edition I believe, in particular. But the one I picked up tonight is a black tank, and I believe it is of the "Jasper" chip era, supposedly less prone to red ring, manufactured Nov 09. Only problem with it really, was the stuck CD tray issue. I figured out the repair for this tray issue, it basically amounts to pulling a small belt off of the CD drive, rubbing it down with alcohol to clean it, and re-installing it. Sure enough, that fixed it. The machine seems to work fine.
Just one catch... when I was cleaning it, I spotted a figging TICK inside the CD drive! :o Tried to grab him out, but failed. Not sure if he could damage the system or what. Never expected that, though I should've, the thing was in a dumpster after all. ???
Overall, I like it. I see it as an upgrade from my old white tank which has miraculously never red ringed on me. I was basically just waiting for the day it did, but now I feel more at ease with this black tank. Xbox 360 for free? Sure, why not. :D

That's pretty great especially since its the final Elite model with a 250 gb hdd so you're pretty much set on storage capacity, and those are apparently harder to find since those were only available in limited/special edition bundles so that's a pretty great deal you got for free, especially since all you had to do was fix the disk drive tray.

Allright... today was a pretty good day for my shop, but I also found two boxes full of old PC games. None were boxed, so I left behind several... but managed to grab some interesting things, anyhoo.
(http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j238/foxhack/DP/finds-2014-12-03a.jpg)
Mary Kate and Ashley: Crush Course (shut up) - $1
SpyHunter (PC+Mac, disc in case) - $1.25
Postal 2 (European release) - $1.25
Postal 2: Share the Pain Multiplayer Edition - $1.25
The PS1 game was found at a booth with tons and tons of CDs. This was the only PS1 game, though. SpyHunter and both Postal 2s were bought as part of a lot that cost me $10 which included some stuff for reselling. I wasn't going to buy them until I saw the inside...
(http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j238/foxhack/DP/finds-2014-12-03b.jpg)
