I'm finally back from vacation and i tried to hit the shops i could find on my way back home, sadly i've mostly found overpriced stuff so i have abandoned after the sixth shop but i've still got a few things from a little used shop i've found just after i've passed the Spanish border (the shop was on clearance because it was going out of business :().

PS3
Deadpool
Ironman 2
LittleBig Planet

PS4
The Surge

PSP
Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth (it's the US version, but i can't seem to find a good price for the European version, this one was only 10€ at -50% off so only 5 bucks to finally be able to play that game)

Wii
Eledees (i've never seen or heard about this game before and it was only 0.50€ so i don't take much risk and maybe it will be a good surprise)

And i've found a few movies (and series) for my Video Games movies collection:
Hooked & Hooked 2: Next Level
Monster Rancher Box 1 & 2 (the first 48 episodes, episodes 49-73 have never been released in France >:()
Nirvana
Red Faction: Origins
Sakura Taisen

That makes me remember that before going to vacation i wanted to create a poll to see what the others users would accept in the "Swag - Promo Videos/ Movies" category, it's been in my thoughts since a discussion with another user earlier this year and while it's becoming an huge part of my collection i understand that not everyone want to have all those movies, not directly related to a video games series or even Anime series based on Visual novels, flooding that category ;D (i will probably do that during the next week after i ask permission from the mods).

I also found this game a while back! mine was more expensive though $3 or $4. but I bought it because it was from the same studio that made Dewy's Adventure (which I also own). although not a great game it will be worth the $5 or less if you manage to find it.

im really not a fan of waggle wands controls...

I just comes from deals sets bought for cheap or at great deals. I resell the stuff I don't want or already have to recoup my money and keeping the stuff that I want. usually with profits and in some cases a minor loss or break even if I really want  something badly.

i'm pretty sure it is not a new thing for many other collectors who do the same thing if you want to collect on the cheap.

A few things i found at a garage sales this morning, and i finally got back a DVD i lent a two years ago (even if i had to go and get it back by myself, the face he made when he opened the door, he didn't expect to pass almost two hours of his Sunday morning searching his house for a DVD ;D):

PS4
Elex

PSP
Activision Hits Remixed (without box sadly but hey for 0,50€ i can't complain)

MegaDrive
McDonald's Global Gladiators (also know as "Mick & Mack as the Global Gladiators")

PC
Planescape Torment (Bigbox White Label Edition)
Fallout 2 (Game and manual only, i got it for free since it was inside the Planescape Torment bigbox)

Video Games related stuff:
Gunparade March (DVD - The full series)
Le Cobaye (the French name for "The Lawnmower Man" - DVD)
Resident Evil: Vendetta (Blu-ray)
Hard Corner the Movie (That's the DVD i lent two years ago and it's finally back into my hands. This is a movie made by Benzaie, a French Youtuber that you maybe know for his "Games That You Might Don't Know" series between 2008 and 2011 on Channel Awesome. That DVD was only available through his funding campaign on MyMajorCompany so that's why i'm pretty happy to finally get it back).

Everything else
Ant-man (DVD)
Caprica (DVD - It's just the pilot not the full series)
Independance Day: Resurgence (Blu-Ray)
Thor (DVD)
Record of Lodoss War: The Lady of Pharis (Manga Volume 1 & 2)



I also found this game a while back! mine was more expensive though $3 or $4. but I bought it because it was from the same studio that made Dewy's Adventure (which I also own). although not a great game it will be worth the $5 or less if you manage to find it.

Dewy's Adventure ? Never heard of it before which means that i would love to play it, the PAL version seems to be a bit pricey for me at the moment (from 15€ to 30€ for a copy) but i will keep an eye for it. I'm jealous, the cover for the American version of Eledees (or i should say Elebits) is so much better, i'm sad that they didn't used that cover for the PAL version (even more sad that they still used it for the manual and not for the cover).
