Black Friday Gatherings All Arrived:

Got some good deals, I did give into Fist of The North Star as it seems to be going up in price - But a game I'm gneuinely interested in playing soon!
I did get Stubbs The Zombie on Xbox for a steal which I'm pleased about :) It even has Split-Screen Co-op which I didn't know of :)
No pic. White Japanese Sega Saturn, console only. Said to be modded to play backups, but not region modded. I tested it yesterday and it was able to play the Dokimeki Memorial puzzle game I have just fine.
Just dropped about $70 on 23 old school PC games on GOG. They're doing their annual winter sale and next year is going to be a year of lots of PC gaming so I wanted to stock up for when I'm ready.

I'm currently fighting the urge to do the same thing, but I'm afraid I'd end up like last year - dropping several hundred dollars in upgrades to play like 1 1/2 PC games this year. There's just TOO MUCH out there.
Gamecube
There is a bit of a story behind these. I'm lucky enough to have three 2nd and Charles locations near me and at least two of them I stop by at least once a week, sometimes twice. Decided to make my way to the best 2nd and Charles of all three (better prices, nicer staff, and better selection overall) and as I'm going through their used games I look inside their display and see all four Gamecube Mario Party games, all priced about 20% under ebay. These games are notoriously overpriced whenever I see them in stores so seeing them actually under ebay for once was pretty nice for a change. I had to hunt down an employee to get them out of the case for me since no one was behind he counter. There was another guy who seemed to be frantically looking for someone at the same time, but I found someone first and she took out the Mario Party games. I quickly assumed that he was wanting to find an employee for the same reasons I was, since he B lined it over to the case as soon as the employee started taking the Mario Party games out. While I was inspecting the games, the guy was watching me like a hawk as I inspected the condition of each game. I'm sure he was waiting for me to say I didn't want any of them to swoop in and grab them. Fortunately all four games were complete and very minty so I told the employee that I wanted them and she took them behind the registers while I continued to look around. The guy let out a big sigh and walked away. As I'm going up to the register that same guy is in line behind me and makes a snarky comment about my questionable tastes in games since I passed on a copy of Luigi's Mansion on account it was a pretty standard price and I already own it. I simply replied that I owned it already, and he said in a very sarcastic voice "lucky you!" The guy reeked of butt hurt and petty jealously, which made it that much sweeter getting those games even though they weren't necessarily the deal of the century :)
