I'd already mentioned the limited edition set for SMT IV in the US, but I just found out tonight about this sweet 3DS XL Japanese fans are getting... http://www.siliconera.com/2013/03/11/shin-megami-tensei-iv-3ds-xl-artwork-conceals-law-and-chaos/

*whiny voice* I want one!

I wondered why they weren't releasing it for Wii as well - they'd definitely sell a lot more copies.  Then I heard about this:

It looks as though they're preparing to phase out the Wii entirely.  With poor Wii U sales and a lukewarm response to the 3DS, I seriously wonder about the future of Nintendo...  Newsflash:  Earthbound ain't gonna save your hide, Nintendo, especially if you're relying on the Wii U to sell copies.

I think it's the same for a lot of us. We have tons of games, but don't have time to play a lot of them.

So very true.

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!

Gonna be spendy over the next few months, I think. I've currently got pre-orders up for:

- Devil Survivor: Official Material Collection Book
- Ketsui: Kizuna Jigoku Tachi EXTRA [PS3]
- Muramasa Rebirth: Limited Edition [PSV]
- Pandora's Tower [Wii]
- Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner - Soul Hackers [3DS]
- Shin Megami Tensei IV [3DS]
- Tales of Xillia: Collector's Edition [PS3]

Aaaaand I might stick Killer is Dead on the pile, even though there are no pre-order goodies. Decisions, decisions...

That's a good-lookin' list of pre-orders you got there.

... Its paranoia, plain and simple. The world is honestly full of people who have no idea of anything outside of their closed world and cant spend a single moment to understand another point of view or even try to imagine there is something other than what they know and believe in.

Well said -and- I agree!

Well said indeed.

Hi,

currently the page shows me how many items I have on my list. It would be nice if it could show total amount of items just like now, amount of hardware, accessories and games separately.

From what I understand, this is on Matt's to-do list.  Once it's implemented, we'll be able to view/filter categories separately.

NO! I got that stupid Duck Tales song stuck my head again!

Here it is in Finnish.  Subtitles are hilarious, so make sure to turn them on.

LMAO!  Too funny!

I had no idea Hexen was released for Sega Saturn.     Then again, I don't know a lot about Sega's games/consoles...

Wonder how it holds up to the PSX version?

The game I'm most excited for is Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2.  It may not even come out 'til 2014 at this rate anyhow.

I just saw that Wal Mart has this game on sale right now too.

GameStop as well.  Looks to me like everyone's running a $40 sale right now on Ni No Kuni -- that is, if you can actually find a copy on the shelf!

All of these are great I love that castlevania display @scott.
@zierlaz I love that shelving!
I'll post some pictures once I clean up a bit
It's nothing near as big as some of these, but I'm digging it so far.

Thanks! I'm hoping that when I get moved into the new house, I can get a even better display set up for them.

I so cannot wait to see how it's going to look!

I'm just a vanilla trivia guy. I've been playing Trivia Pursuit as long as I can remember.

I LOVE trivia. 

I'm not really into board games, but I wouldn't mind having this:  http://www.amazon.com/Gears-War-The-Board-Game/dp/1616611693

I've often thought this would be a good idea as well, just never remembered to post it.  I like how this would personalize our collection pages, along with the possibility of our avatars near our name.

Good call Torvez.
