Best Buy midnight launch for Super Mario Odyssey.

Best Buy midnight launch for Super Mario Odyssey.

I assume that's a poster but I think it would be cooler if it were a laminated placemat. Also, that dinosaur looks so out of place in comparison to the rest of that picture IMO.

Yeah it's a double-sided poster with a chainchomp Mario on it.  The dinosaur is my favorite capture so far because he's just big dang dino! lol

Went out on Saturday to try and track down the Chrom amiibo that I didn't even realize was released alongside Fire Emblem Warriors. Only one store near me showed one on hand so I hopped down there and lucky enough it was still in stock. Tried my luck in getting the wedding 3-pack ordered from the warehouse but he said it showed unavailable to him. On the way to that store we dropped into Best Buy beforehand to see if they had any in stock (which would be cheaper with GCU). They didn't but they did have a restock of the Majora's Mask amiibo (need to check Amazon to see if they got a restock on the Skyward Sword one).

After picking up Chrom, we went across town to a hole-in-the-wall game store. I found quite a few things in there, some at prices I could hardly believe including...

Build-A-Bear: Welcome to Hugsville DS $2
Tetris Party Deluxe DS $4
Zoo Tycoon 2 DS $2
Thrillville PSP $2
Thrillville: Off the Rails $2
Katamari Forever PS3 $10
Twisted Metal PS3 $3
Awesome Possum GEN $6

Went around to some GameStop locations because it was Elite Pro day. I ended up signing up for the new version since the amount of used stuff I buy pays for the card several times over in the course of a year. At one location I decided to finally bite the bullet and pick up the WiiU game Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. The Elite Pro nets you 20% off and then there was a promo for an additional 10% on top of that. I had enough points available where I was able to redeem a $25 off pre-owned item and applied that so I ended up getting the game for about $30.

Last stop of the day was a Half-Price Books where I found a Paper Mario Sticker Star strategy guide on clearance for $2.

Its a sealed homebrew listed as 91/100 and I had no idea here this game came from, so I had to get it. 
Doing some research later, It was a game ported from the Amiga computers and from what I can gather and it was sold as a limited run through the Nintendo Age forum.

T16
Anytime I find T16 games I don't have and priced right I have to get them.
- New Adventure Island

And last a new console, one I put off for a long time because I own a Turbo Duo.
- Turbografx CD System
It has been recapped and replaced the faulty gear. Another reason it took so long, many of these systems have issues. The guy worked with me on the price and I just had to get it.

I had no idea Tiki even existed till I saw your post so I spent most of yesterday afternoon tracking her down. GameStop was no help nor was Best Buy but I managed to find her at a Meijer near my house. It sucks I don't get any kind of points (GS) or discount (BB GCU) but I'm happy I didn't have to jump through fire hoops to get her other than go around to a few stores.

Exactly 1 year ago today, I pre-ordered Skullgirls via LRG. Today it arrived.

[Warmsignal]

A new Bubsy game? I'm not sure who asked for it, but I'm happy that it exists in physical form. Plus a bunch more Wii stuff I've got recently.
