Recently got chrono trigger ds, yoshi's island ds and pokemon white
Absolutely love chrono trigger, up to my 3rd playthrough and still having fun. I already owned yoshi's island ds and pokemon white previously, but they were lost and stolen respectively, and I haven't had a chance to play them much |

Pre-Ordered The Buereau: XCOM, which got me the complete XCOM collection and Spec Ops: The Line.
Bought Pikmen 3 while on a loop around town, Sleeping Dogs, back when it was $6, and Papers Please. I'm also securing purchases for Saints Row IV and Luigi's Mansion 2 tomorrow. LM:2 is technically a gift for my Bro's B-Day, but we pretty much share our games... Well other than PC... Last edited by Fubab_107; August 13, 2013 at 07:25:47 PM. |

Stopped by the thrift store after dropping off some unneeded stuff, and I found:
- Handspring Visor Neo (early palmtop computer) for $1 - Parallel printer cable (for communications tinkering), also for $1 - Sony TC-WE305 dual cassette deck for $7 Little did I know that there was a "50% Off All Merchandise" sale going on, so after all was said and done, I ended up paying about $5 for everything. The icing on the cake, was the fact that everything worked perfectly when I tested my latest finds. And yes, I am a huge sucker for analog audio gear and other vintage technology. It comes as no surprise that you'd find plenty of cassettes, VHS tapes, old radios, and vinyl records in my collection. Last edited by Seiji J. Konokama; August 19, 2013 at 11:05:50 AM. |

Local game store:
Super Donkey Kong for the Super Famicom (Japanese version of Donkey Kong Country for the Super Nintendo, they had a lot of Super Famicom games in stock) - $7 Pitfall 3D: Beyond the Jungle (PS1 -complete) - $3 (only reason I got this was because it has the first demo for Vigilante 8, so I need it for my Vigilante 8 collection) |

Today I got the Wii U Deluxe Set and Earthbound for myself. For a friend I also bought him Project X-Zone (He's a day older than me and we shared a joint birthday party.)
With the money I received I might save it or buy Mario and Luigi RPG4 Dream Team. |

My friend convinced me to buy an app called Akinator. $1.99 I think. It asks you questions about any fictional or real character to try to guess who it is. It is freakishly good. I've only fooled it by making it guess an obscure card from Magic: the Gathering. It even guessed Kisara from Yu-Gi-Oh!

This is one reason why I'm never an impulse shopper (with very few Nintendo exceptions.) I always do research and look for discounts upon discounts. And in this case it seems the discount was "free." Last edited by TurtwigX; September 5, 2013 at 05:56:23 PM. |

A while back I ordered a Game Boy Micro for $88, and yay it just arrived so I can take a crappy picture of it
(also, there's a speck of dust on the underside of the faceplate. So now I have to somehow take it off. >.<) Last edited by NismoZ; September 7, 2013 at 04:44:46 AM. |

Well I scrapped together painfully the (ever so slightly increasing price) of a pre-order on Pokemon Y version and got that poster... which is kinda bleh I think, compared to what the other countries got. xP But yay Yveltal~ One more month and I can pet it on Pokemon Amie... but seriously the pre-order was $40-some odd number. Instead of the typical $38. I don't like that.

Not sure if you already found them, but... there are these two little buttons on the left side of the Micro that will release the faceplate. The easiest (and cheapest) way to press them simultaneously is with a bent paperclip. There was dust underneath the faceplate on my Micro when I got it, as well.

Put money aside for a purchase of GTA V next week. As well finishing pre-order payments for WatchDogs and Pokemon Y. Plus started a mini pool to purchase This mother.
In terms of non games. I went on a spree that gives my parents a reason I should never have money in my access...
Non- Game Game related items.

It's long overdue... I finally broke down and got a new laptop.
*Crocodile Hunter voice* Have a look at this beauty... ain't she gorgeous? http://shop.lenovo.com/nl/en/laptops...-series/g500s/ I'm afraid that, after my haircut, I won't be buying much of the little stuff for awhile. But I'm perfectly alright with that. :3 Last edited by Seiji J. Konokama; September 17, 2013 at 04:52:18 PM. |

Earlier today I got myself a computer (this one: http://avatargamingpc.com/desktop/elitefx6164.html)
I also ordered my keyboard and mouse from Newegg. My sister gave me a monitor a little while ago (not sure how good it is, though). All I need now is a desk and a place for it. Last edited by blueumbreon; September 19, 2013 at 04:09:31 AM. |

Got a few things from the 3DS eshop today, cuz why not
10-in-1 Arcade Collection($2.99) Fun, little collection of arcade games, though most of them aren't that well known. Presentation is beautiful, and it's still good fun for the price. Kirby's Dreamland 2($3.99)Got this with the Kirby's 20th Anniversary collection, and I loooooved it~ It's one of my favorites in the series to be honest. Definitely deserved a second buy imo. Super Mario Land 2($3.99) I actually never played this game before, so of course I had to get this. Cave Story($9.99) Uhh, it's Cave Story. No surprise here. I do need to save money, though, I'm looking to buy both Windwaker HD and Pokemon X next month. Last edited by Eagles; September 22, 2013 at 04:22:04 PM. |

Today, I bought my monitor (the one we had wasn't properly equipped). It's a Dell 24" LED 1080p with VGA and HDMI. It is a very nice looking screen. The keyboard and mouse I ordered also came in today (Tt eSports Therion and the Microsoft Sidewinder X4).

Preparation for Pokemon Y. I got this shiny purple nurple off amazon used, but it's almost like new! So I'm borrowing his Dream Drop Distance until X/Y releases.

I got Shadow Warrior Classic Redux when it went on sale that one time a month and a half ago.
I was also gifted Magicka and Bastion a few days ago. I got Pokémon Rumble U a little bit ago. Last edited by alternateshadow300; September 26, 2013 at 02:39:34 PM. |

While I don't have Pokémon Rumble U and figure I won't have it for a while, I figured that I might as well pick up some figures while they're easily obtainable at stores like GameStop. I bought two, and inside were Eevee and Bulbasaur.

One Random Shirt of Surprising Awesomeness
Extra Info
In my case I got three as I figured why not here's the results: Dr. Who shirt (extremely happy on that) Batman (it's an older style from what I can read on it says vintage batman on it and is an offcial DC shirt) and then the odd one Angry Birds Space I'll wear it later to see what its like. All in all I got real lucky and am happy for what I got. |

Forgot to post here that I got Windwaker HD a few days ago. REALLY fun game, I'm glad I got to play it.
And I might as well post now that I just paid in full my copy for either X or Y, my brother and I got both, we're still deciding who gets which version. |

Shin Megami Tensei IV, Animal Crossing New Leaf, Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition, and Xenosaga Episode I (whenever Amazon decides to finally have it shipped over here >_>)
And Y is currently waited to become paid off, so that'll be dealt with later. Last edited by Charizard98; October 14, 2013 at 07:28:57 PM. |

I just picked up the latest Humble Bundle (but didn't bother with the bonus games).
Also, anyone want a free copy of Humble Bundle with Android 6 (no bonus games)? I accidentally bought two of them a while back when that one was going on. The four games (Aquaria, Fractal, Organ Trail: Director's Cut, and Stealth *censored* Deluxe) work on Android, Windows, Mac, and Linux and include their respective soundtracks. There's also a Steam key for folks who use that. Last edited by Cat333Pokémon; October 15, 2013 at 12:28:55 PM. |

Oh yes got The Stanley Parable on Steam for $12 on Tuesday. Played the demo and it seemed like the randomest thing ever, so I got full version. Full version is randomest thing ever X20, but I love it (though I think I found pretty much everything within 6 hours of playing).

I picked up the Nyko Power Pak+ for the 3DS from GameStop for only $7, to replace the dying one in my own system. I also bought a USB charger to charge it while around my laptop but not around an outlet.

Cat and I went to a bunch of garage sales today, here's what I got
All of the above was about $20 total between various sales. Also almost got a top-loader NES, but the people were stubborn and wouldn't go less then $50 for a really dirty untested system (which is a fair price, but a bit more then I would pay for a dirty untested system from a garage sale). After that we hit one of the retro game stores we often go to and got
Also got a Acer al2216wbd 22" widescreen monitor for $20. A little upgrade from my 17" 4:3 monitor. Last edited by Yoshi648; November 3, 2013 at 06:50:42 PM. |

I got a black 3DS XL for $100 on Craigslist. The reason why I got so cheap because it didn't have the charger and stylus but I already have 2 chargers for it (one from my DSi and another my 3DS. Yes they ARE compatible with the 3DS XL) so I'm covered there and I just bought the screen protectors, which includes the XL stylus.
The screen protectors cost about $9 at GameStop so all together I spent $109 on my 3DS XL. |

Best Buy had a nice deal going on. Wii U Mario and Luigi Deluxe Set + Nintendo Land + Mario or Luigi Wiimote Plus for $320 (Normal Wii U Deluxe $300 + NSMB U $60 + NSL $30 + Nintendo Land $30 + Wiimote Plus $40 = $460 total for everything with no bundles).
Obviously I took advantage of this and finally got myself a Wii U (with Luigi controller). Looks like my Xbox 360 with GTA V can finally take a break. |

Got some really weird game involving two plumbers, a princess, and a talking mushroom traveling the land eating other mushrooms, stomping on other other mushrooms and turtles all while wearing cute cat fursuits just to climb up a flag pole.
Some of you may know this game as Super Mario 3D World. |
