General / Totaku Figures at Gamestop
« on: March 06, 2018, 12:50:10 pm »
The Bloodborne one looked ok out of the first wave, so when I saw an advertisement for a Ni No Kuni 2 figure, I got excited...

Then I looked at a better picture...


 :-\ :-\ :-\ The face just looks so weird. The rest of the figure looks great, though.

Modern Video Games / Monster Hunter: World
« on: February 05, 2018, 02:27:51 pm »
Just figured I'd have a MHW thread since a few of us have been talking about it in the general section. Please be careful of spoilers in this thread!

I've been playing pretty much nonstop since it came out but I'm only at HR 12, I think. Taking my time is nice! I like pushing the story but also am happy to gather things and farm monsters with folks.

My PSN is Deso31 in case anyone needs any help!

I don't want to get into too many spoilers here - I know folks are at all different levels, and I love the surprises the game has in store.

If anything, I'm still having a hard time finding the grimalkynes and the poogie outfits! I've found a few outfits but am wondering if there aren't more.

I wonder if this is a good way to kinda/sorta hide spoilers.  :-X

Off Topic / Holiday plans?
« on: December 22, 2017, 03:29:11 pm »
Today's my last day of work before getting some much-need time off. If anyone else is getting some time off, what are you planning on doing during that time?

I'll hopefully do some livestreaming, play some video games, clean up the bedroom, and audit my VGC collection.  Not sure if I'll get to all of it, but I'd love to try. I'm sooooo behind on the collection and want to make sure it's accurate on my profile.

Other than that, just have some Christmas Eve dinner plans with friends and something for New Year's Eve, too. Nothing too crazy - mostly just close friends and video games <3

Modern Video Games / Switch now supports Wii U Gamecube Adapter
« on: October 25, 2017, 04:14:48 pm »
One surprise of the recent firmware update for the Switch was the ability to use the Wii U Gamecube Adapter for it...

My bf got one a while back, and I was excited but was quickly disappointed that it was just for Smash Bros (which neither of us play, really). So the fact that this will work system-wide (and not specifically with just one game) with the Switch is exciting and illuminating  - like what do they have in mind that will utilize the GC controllers?

Outside of another Smash game... haha.

In any case, I'm glad we got one back when it was $19.99... crazy, but also not surprising that it's way more expensive now.

Hey all,

I thought this was an odd way of issuing pre-order DLC, so I thought I'd publicize it here!

General / Street Fighter II (30th Anniversary Edition)
« on: August 30, 2017, 06:49:18 pm »
https://store.iam8bit.com/products/street-fighter-ii-30th-anniversary-edition ($100)

"As a Street Fighter 30th Anniversary surprise, Capcom & iam8bit fistbumped to create this ultra premium throwback relic - a brand-new, freshly manufactured limited edition of Street Fighter II for Super Nintendo Entertainment System compatible hardware. Featuring one of two colored cartridges, each housing the original game code and fully playable on NTSC consoles - but that’s just the beginning! The “Legacy Cartridge Collection” embodies retro-inspired luxury, amplifying the core SNES box design with a glistening foil sheen, delicately embossed texture, chic spot varnish and an innovative tri-fold cover that opens to reveal bonus vintage art. Inside, we’re keeping it old-school by restoring the contents of the original instruction booklet, complete with a new archival cover print + secret pack-ins (to be revealed when you crack that shrink-wrap seal)."

Pretty good deals and a good way to get some older titles, including their restocked Nier:

I've never been able to find what I want from Best Buy, but I see some folks saying niche games are easy to get from them? What are the experiences/preferences of other VGC people? The perk for me at the moment is that I'm part of someone else's Prime family, so I actually am not paying for my discounts.
