Not a pickup, but today I pre-ordered the Switch Super Mario Odyssey Bundle from GameStop.  I believe it's the first console I've ever pre-ordered.

I kind of want it, and I'm not even a SF fan. Looks like it's just a reprinting of the original. Is there anything special to it?

Nintendo's naming convention has finally lost me.

It's a matter of scale. There was less than forty GBA video paks made, which isn't too hard to keep track of. UMD movies is a bit harder; being that there's over a thousand releases. Some estimates put it at two thousand.

Rarity doesn't equate to value.

General / Re: Back Lit GameBoy Color vs N64 Mini Which would you rather buy?

« on: July 29, 2017, 02:48:20 pm »

I feel it would be more likely they'd release a GBA classic first. N64 is somewhat harder to emulate.

Oh man. I forgot about BroForce. That's an ultra Amurican game.

With downloads, in most cases, you're not buying a game. You're buying a license to install and play the game. With some services that license can be revoked. I highly double in 20 years you'll be able plug in your 360 and download games purchased in 2009. They're gone. You don't own anything.

Even if it was within their legal ability to take physical games away from people there's no way any publisher would do that. It would be far too expensive to track down every sold copy and ship them back somewhere. It would probably be more likely they would place a bounty on games to have them sent back.

I picked up some SFC gems recently.
Flying Hero
Gokujo Parodius
Great Battle IV

I'm definitely in love with Parodius. It's basically the happiest happiest game ever made.
