If you could upload a better picture of it to the entry that you made for it, then that'd be great.

Otherwise, congrats.

Sadly, I'm on a game buying freeze until the PS5 releases.

That said I'm still really enjoying Ghost of Tsushima. I'm having a blast just doing all the side quests and leveling up my samurai to bad assery levels. I'm going to try and platinum the game so that'll keep me busy.

Vikings: Wolves of Midgard (Xbox One)
Good Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance clone. Though the difficulty is wonky. I had it on Normal and had no problem getting through the levels, but the bosses would absolutley destroy me. Yet on Easy nothing was the slightest challenge even. Still, the bash and loot nature keeps me playing anyways.


Destroy All Humans! (Remake) (Xbox One)
I haven't actually started playing this one at all, since I'm in the middle of Vikings: Wolves of Midgard. But I've heard good things from others and I had a lot of fun with the original.

I picked up enough goodies to have a pick ups update, I did something I haven't done all year.

I also did some game hunting outside of town and found a rare game at a good price.

When I saw this announced I had to get it...

I knew you'd be the first (and probably only) one to get that LEGO NES set. Truth be told, I'd get it, but I'm just interested in the NES.

Also, I just want to say damn, because I wish that the Walmart I go to had those type of clearance sales. I mean, Fade to Silence for $5 and Control for $9?

Redacted.

OK, pardon the messy picture, but look at what I got!



A Nintendo 64, complete with three controllers, Super Smash Bros. and Mario Kart 64.

Now the crazy thing is, I didn't buy this. It was a gift from my ex-employer of all people! I worked with this entrepreneur as an intern and then as a parttimer for two years total, and sadly thursday was my last day because he's shifted focus to new projects. As a gift to say thank you, he flat-out got me the Nintendo 64 that was laying around in the office. Uhm, best gift and best employer ever much?
Huge Nintendo fan and hobbyist Nintendo collector.

That's awesome! Free is the best way to get a console.

I'm not a huge LRG person, however occasionally they'll have a game go up that I really, really want, and sadly sometimes I don't find out until long after that game is sold out. This was one of those games, and I always had the intention of maybe buying it someday off ebay or some place else. Luckily I didn't have to resort to ebay, and a local retro game shop actually had one of the used special editions marked below MSRP which is a crazy good deal on this considering what they are going for right now. Picked it up without a second thought.

NES
I looking for garage sales last week and followed a sign and saw a lady setting up for a garage sale in her garage. I stopped and I find out the lady wasn't having a sale til next week. I ask if she had any thing video game she was planning to sell and she tells me she had an Atari 2600 and a NES she was thinking of selling. I tried to get her to bring them out that day but she wouldn't.  :(
So I took notice of the address and come back the next week first thing. I get there and see a table full of newer video games, XB360, Wii, Wii U and they where all scrap titles at $5-10 a piece. (nothing I wanted or needed) I ask about the Atari and NES and she tells me she only found the NES and hasn't put it out yet.  ;D 
She pulls out a small box with a NES and about nine games. I ask a price and she tells me her husband looked up Ebay and wants $80 for the system alone or $120 for everything. :o
I ask about the games and she says $5 each except for the Mario games she wanted $10, (there was three copies of Mario 3 for some reason). I grab two and paid her the $10 and was happy with that.  ::)
- Duck Tales
- Jurassic Park
I left behind, Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt, Super Mario 3 (x3), Tetris, Excitebike and Micky Mousecapade.

There still are not a lot of garage sales in my area, but still finding a few decent finds worth going out and hunting.  ;)
