Nice, I keep forgetting to add Fragile Dreams to my wishlist.

My pickups this week come with a poem...



Double Switch - Sega Saturn (Something old)
Sunset Overdrive - Xbox One (Something new)
Remember Me - PS3 (To replace the digital PS Plus freebie = Something borrowed)
Ducktales 2 Manual = (Something Ducktales! A woooo oooooh!)

I paid more for the Ducktales 2 manual than all my other manuals so far combined. but now it makes my Ducktales 2 complete-ish.

I have to say complete-ish because technically the box is a Stone Age gamer bit box case:

Picked up The Talos Principle for PS4.

Picked up some goodies, games that used to be on my wishlist, but I decided I didn't care enough, so I removed them and decided they would just be just like this, random finds for dirt cheap one day.

James Pond Codename: Robocod (GBA)
Metal Gear Acid 2 (PSP)
Blade II (Xbox)
Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (360)

And I got Turrican game and manual in the mail (GB).  I used to play this game a lot as a kid, but my cart is shot, so I finally went out and purchased another copy.

I had a bit of a surprise yesterday.  I got a package in the mail that I have no idea who it was from other than the return label marked "Santa".  I'd already got my Secret Santa gift.  So, it was someone else.  I also assumed it was someone from here, because it was video games from my wishlist. 

In this pretty little box, I found several things from my wish list.

Fantasy Zone (SMS)
Die Hard Arcade (Saturn)
Infamous (PS3)
Batman: Arkham Knight (PS4)

I'm beyond pumped. 

Santa, I don't know who you are; but I will find you, and I will thank you.

Got Brain Age 2, Elite Beat Agents, and Nanostray 2 carts for $4.

One of the hardest trophy I think was the VR mission trophy and especially the 18. Here's my run on that one:

Thanks, definitely will gonna use your video as a strategy but first am gonna try the Jetstream chapter, have heard that this one is a little bit ore tough also have read that the enemies are more aggressive, react faster, and have many of their animations altered or sped up to make them less vulnerable then I'll play the Blade Wolf chapter

NES Remix Pack - Wii U

NES Remix Pack - Wii U

I love that game.  I wish there was more of these.  I played the download versions.  Then, I bought the WiiU version.  Now, the 3DS version stays in my 3DS.   I'm a fan.

Gonna close the year with two more purchases where the first one is the strategy guide from the Final Fantasy III of the DS, already finished this game years ago but I had the feeling that missed a lot of stuff so decided to give it another chance and try this time to complete it at 100% the second purchase am not quite sure if I can add it into my collection list cause is an adapter for the 360, got tired of the RCA cables so gonna give it a try to the VGA just to see I the babes of the Dead or Alive 5 look more sexy in a better resolution
