Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity (DL)- $35

It's my first PMD game but I love it so far.

Today I found a Game Boy Pocket and Sega Game Gear at Goodwill for $8 and $20 respectively. I remember having a Game Gear when I was little, so that thing was a must have for me. They even both came with batteries that work! (Surprising, for as much power as the Game Gear sucks out of them...)

I bought an original Game Boy Advance in excellent condition from a garage sale for $10. It had Ice Age: The Meltdown in the slot (which isn't bad for a movie adaptation).

I got SoulSilver. I have Heartgold and I have beaten it, but I want to get the 151 of the Kanto Pokedex and some Pokemon are only in SoulSilver

Picked up a Wii U Deluxe and New Super Mario Bros. U.

Online stuffs:
Road Rash II with case (Genesis) - $5
Road Rash 3 with case (Genesis) - $5
Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire guide - $3

And today I got a new shelving unit to store/display ALL my games on.

At "The World's Largest Garage sale" I got 1 working original Xbox, 1 broken Xbox, about 26 games (mostly crappy sports titles), empty game cases, 3 controllers (only 1 end), and all the necessary hook ups for $40. I was happy.

Project Gotham Racing 3- $1. No case or manual.

I went to GameStop today and got Megaman X Collection, Phantom Brave, and Sly 2 for $26 (Buy 2 get one free). I went to a flea market later and got Zombies Ate My Neighbors for $25. Also, Soul Eater: The Complete Series came in the mail today. I ordered that from Amazon, since it was $26, as opposed to the usual price of $60. So, I guess it was all worth it.

I guess I'll be the first electronics hobbyist to post something like this...

Bought a pocket-sized multimeter at RadioShack for around $30. While it may not be an actual video game purchase per se, the meter will certainly be useful when diagnosing consoles, checking backup batteries, and finding wiring faults in things like AV cables. Any multimeter is a must for those who like to maintain or modify game consoles, or for people who just love to build circuits.

Thrift store:

Original Xbox controller (Duke model) - $3
Need for Speed III: Hot Pursuit (PC) with box and documents - $4
Guitar Hero controller bag - $2

Bought the allen wake weekly sale (humble bundle) 2.50

Got Final Fantasy: 4 Heroes of Light a few days ago(I've only played around in the previous onwer's profile, I like the presentation), and just yesterday bought Kung Fu Rabbit from the Wii U eshop(Not the hardest game, but still fun and a great deal for only 5 bucks.)

Here's some irony for you:
The other day I stopped at the pawnshop for the heck of it, and I saw another copy of Tekken 2 there, and the owner wanted $3 for it... I turned my heart away from it, knowing I didn't have much cash left in my wallet. Then today, I went downtown to pick up some bread (gotta have my turkey sandwiches... XD), and on the way back, I stopped at a yard sale. Turns out they had PS1 and PS2 games for 50¢ apiece. So I ended up getting Tekken 1, 2, and 4, as well as Tekken Tag Tournament, all for the $2 I had gotten back from buying the bread.

Then my brother comes over, and gives me his copy of Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty, to play on a laptop I have yet to purchase. Looking at the minimum requirements, it seems I have a pretty good chance at playing it on my MacBook.

Now, how is that for an awesome day of video game pickups?

Recently bought Fire Emblem Awakening as well as Pre-Purchased Rising Storm from Red Orchestra 2.

Today, on a trip up to Erie, PA, I got Megaman Anniversary Collection and Psychonauts for the Xbox and Megaman X4 for the PS1 for 42 bucks all together.

I bought Persona 4 Golden from a Gamestop as my most recent purchase, I have no regrets of saying it is an amazing game.

I got dead island riptide. Its better than the first but is still really buggy. I still like it though

I (finally) used my $25 gift card to GameStop over the weekend and got three games:
Jak and Daxter 1 - $2
Star Wars Battlefront 2 - $5
Final Fantasy VII: Derge of Cerberus - $14
Would've had just enough for another cheap game, but I bought these games via online order, so GameStop had to charge shipping on something they'll take a week to deliver.

Just bought Black 2 (DS) - $30
Modern warfare 3 - $14.95
And Dead Space 2- $14.95
Playing black 2 right now, trying to beat the game!

While this is not a video game itself, it is a video game related thing! So I figured to why not go ahead and share. since it's like, directly related to the game and what not. I just beat Bioschock Infinite today (ohhhhmaaigawwwd it's one of my favorite games ever, can't wait to get a PC powerful enough to own my own copy of it and play now). And so I found this lovely lady today and figured I should get her. Now to get my other favorite, Songbird. Hopefully not being the $120 one from the special edition game bundle... bleeeh.

I bought the Humble Indie Bundle 8 and the Humble Weekly Sale: Telltale games. I choose to pay $6.00 each because why not. I GOT SOME SLOW INTERNET INSTALLIN' COMIN' UP

Last night (thankfully right before the super-cell storm hit, so I got out of the mall in time), I splurged a bit too much and bought my LONG awaited copy of PMD3 (Gates to Infinity) as well as Luigi's Mansion 2. (Also got a Bioshock Infinite shirt too)

Megaman X on eshop... So essentially it did to the eshop what the higgs boson did to the universe...

I also got the humble bundle I've beaten one of the games, working on the Thomas one along with getting Zelda Ages and Seaons on eShop for 4.99 each which i thought was good.

Just grabbed Super Mario Bros. 3 (Wii VC) through Club Nintendo. I downloaded it on my Wii U trough Wii Mode.

Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb - $3
It said somewhere on the store page that it would make the game harder. Might've been because I got to the ending that made the game harder, but it certainly is more difficult.

Galaxy Tablet 2 7" android tablet: $130
Zelda: Skyward Sword: $40
Black Wiimote Plus: $35

Why do they even sell Skyward Sword without at least a Wiimote Plus adapter? Kinda redundant in my opinion.

Though not gaming related, I ordered a $1 random item from RightStuf.com and got Ah! My Godess season 2 volume 1. Not bad for a dollar.

PROTEUS PROTEUS PROTEUS
guaranteed beauty spine tingles

It's really not a purchase, but I guess you could call it video game related... My father recently ordered a 16 GB SD card for his camera, only to find out the SD card is not compatible with his camera (SD card is a Class 6, while I believe his camera is only Class 4). So, he ended up giving the SD card to me, and I plan on using it with either my own camera, or my Wii... or maybe even with my PS2.

Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D, which was about 37 dollars for me

Just got Animal Crossing New Leaf for $35.

The really scary part? I got the digital version of it, not the physical copy that I always prefer. This just seems like one of the few games that would actually be nice just to always have on the system.

I recently got Animal Crossing New Leaf with the strategy guide. I think there were only 3 copies left at Gamestop, so I got lucky.

I too have purchased New Leaf.

...

Waiting on the postman on Friday. *sob*

^^ I have ordered New Leaf for when it comes out on Friday!

EDIT: Really annoyed, turns out I don't have the money for the game..... so my Dad cancelled the order.

I just ordered a digital copy of New Leaf from Best Buy. Waiting for it download to now. Also, I ordered some Fullmetal Alchemist DVDs. Those came today. And I went to Niagara Falls Comic Con on Saturday. I bought a ticket in, an autograph from the Green/White Ranger, an Umbreon plushie, and a Gurren Lagann model kit. It was a fun time.

Because I saw it on sale for the low, low price of $2.49 (plus it caught my eye due to making another game I bought for a friend 75% cheaper than what I paid for just for him), I recently got Chantelise on Steam. It was a daily deal on Steam and I happily parted ways with a key just to purchase this game.

Fairly simple - controls (with the exception of lock-on and camera related controls), combat, towns (or rather, "town"), and story are all pretty simple, but one thing caught my eye in the story that made me ask a few questions to myself (and making someone following a story ask questions is what you aim for in story-writing). I wish there would be more simple RPG games that put you in a role of a pre-built character and intricate story (like Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts), rather than have you go to complex lengths to create a character and somehow fit you into a generic story (like Neverwinter or Dragon Age: Origins).
Simple character and complex story, not complex character and simple story.

New Leaf- Best game evar! Alright, maybe not the best game, but definitely good.
EDIT: I finally got a copy of The Last Story(Only for $29.99 and NEW) at my Gamestop!!! That means I've completed my collection of OP Rainfall games! It's still sealed, and I'm looking at the beautiful case right now. One thing that I really admire is that it says "Music by Nobuo Uematsu" on the very front of the box. That really shows how great of a composer he is, respect. Anyways, I'll have a pic of the 3 together right below. So happy about this! Too bad I have a bunch of games to play before these 3, though. :I

Quite a bit in this one....


A New 200 Gig PS3 to solve space issues. (Found for $150 at a pawn shop)
The Last of Us ($60)
Ultimate Monster Hunter 3 ($60)
Animal Crossing New Leaf ($40)

... I finally had a bit of money to spend....

I bought two $20 eShop gift cards today (intended for use on my 3DS). I don't know whether to get a bunch of cheaper games or one big game. If you have a suggestion, feel free to VM me.

Animal Crossing, got it for 29$

You can get games so cheap over in the US.....
New Leaf is £34 over here ($53.50)...

Bought Battlefield 3 for $5......


I still can't believe I managed that...

I went up to Canada's Wonderland today for my 8th grade trip. I bought a foam Master Sword there for $25 CAD. I also tried to win a PS Vita on Stacker. I didn't win...

Halo 3 - Xbox 360 - complete original edition - $10 from a garage sale (hmm, seems I could have actually gotten it cheaper at GameStop, oh well).
Official Nintendo Wiimote - $2 from thrift store.

I got some VC games for my Wii and 3DS.

For the Wii: Super Mario Bros 3 (Club Nintendo).
For the 3DS: Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move.

Humble Bundle for Android 6. I accidentally bought it twice, though. Dang PayPal.

I picked up a copy of Project X Zone (special edition) today. It's really fun and satisfying. The game was NOT dubbed in English for the NA release (all audio is in Japanese) , but It does have subtitles. This may be a turn-off for some, but you can just turn down the volume if it bothers you that much. The SE comes with a poster, an art booklet, and a CD with some of the games pretty awesome music.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf, about 49 SGD. Yep, I bought the retail card. I'm not a fan of being able to erase everything by an errant format.

Just bought a used copy of Grand Theft Auto 4 for my xbox 360.

I picked both of the Fullmetal Alchemist games for PS2 in Erie today. I also got FMA: Brotherhood Complete Collection 2 for 18, which was considerably cheaper than buying it on Amazon. I will have to track down C.C. 1 before I can watch it...

Recent Purchases over the last month or so:

- Animal Crossing New Leaf (3DS) - £35
- Red Dead Redemption Game of the Year Edition (360) - £17
- F1 2012 (360) - £25

Just yesterday got my Diamond Loot Chest that I ordered a while back
Just bought the new Humble weekly bundle with Toki Toki.

Picked up Final Fantasy Origins off the PSN for 10 bucks- Looks so good, can't wait to play it!

Pokemon Black 2- $35

Yeah I should've gotten it earlier but hey better late then never.

Went to the thrift store today, found the following:


This NES storage organizer thingie

The top shelf holds a Zapper gun and two controllers.





Controllers fit nice and snug, though the wiring compartments don't do much if they aren't neat.





The bottom shelf holds 28 cartridges, but I have no idea how they fit. Top side up, they flop around way too much. Bottom side up they fit, but still have room to lean over.

EDIT: Apparently the cartridges have to be in their plastic sleeves. Sure enough, they fit just fine with them.





How the entire setup would look.



Also when I pulled out the drawers to clean them, I found two pages for the instructions to Mario Brothers.

I'm at Pokemon U.S. Nationals. So far I have picked up Pokemon Pinball: Ruby and Saphire (complete in box), Pokemon Stadium 2 (cartridge only) and a Black Kyurem figure for a total of $48.

Although these aren't games, I bought a Triton headset. I love it! My uncle also gave me a 32gb hard drive
*Edit* I just got GTA IV today. Its just as fun as I remember

Just got Fable on Steam (it was a daily sale) a few days ago for only $4 or so. It's pretty awesome since I've not played the game for YEARS and never beat it due to my age at that time. Played the other two so it's about time I play this one and beat it now.

Does that include pre orders?

If so,

PS4
Tales Of Xillia D1 Edition
Pokemon X & Y
Saints Row 4
Grand Theft Auto 5

Bought Games

Zone Of The Enders
Lair
BattleField 3

I got Final Fantasy VII on Steam.

I recently found my copy of Phantom Hour Glass I thought I lost on a school trip to DC five years ago, and it still works!

I bought Animal Crossing New Leaf yesterday.

I got new leaf on the 7th so I had a new game for the trip I'm currently on. Got it at wall art for 32 so I'm happy so far.

I got Spyro: Year of the Dragon (Greatest Hits). It's complete and the case, book and disc looks almost new.

I got BioShock Infintie for $30 and Rock of Ages for $2 from the summer sale. I don't intent on touching BioShock till I get a better computer. I also got Fez and Chivalry for $11 total.

Just bought Etrian Odyssey I on ebay. ^^

Minecraft for xbox 360!!!!

I bought Super Meat Boy, Fez, and L.A. Noire for very reasonable prices. The Steam Summer sale is just starting.

I picked up Surgeon Simulator 2013 because it was only $3.39. (Hey, I said I'd buy it once the price dropped.)

Oh man, the Steam Summer Sale. What am I gonna do with my money?
oh yeah go buy an N64 and nothing on Steam
Nintendo 64 with cables, two controllers, Rumble Pak, and memory expansion- $70
GoldenEye 007- $12
Banjo-Kazooie- $12
Banjo-Tooie- $18
Pokemon Stadium- $11

Dust: An Elysian Tail for about $7.49 a week ago.

Fallout: New Vegas: Ultimate Edition for about $4.99 today.

Steam deals, who can love ya?

Natural Selection 2 - $6.24
Civilization V:Brave New World - $30

Club Nintendo Elite rewards are live, and I grabbed Link's Awakening DX for 3DS VC. I then later noticed I could have gotten a Majora's Mask OST CD. There's always next year.

I got Dishonored for $10.19. I also got my Platinum Status award, that being the Majora's Mask OST.

Bomb Squad for the OUYA for $4.99

If you have an OUYA and friends to do local multiplayer with, I HIGHLY reccomend this. It's stupid fun blowing your friends up and throwing them off the edge. It's a blast (pun intended)!

Deus Ex: The Collection for the low, low price of $5.99 on Steam.

I really love Steam sales. BAM, I got everything Deus Ex in one go. Can't beat that.

I guess I should get on the Steam sale train too. Got a total of 3 games with what was left on a debit card; Burnout Paradise ($9.99 - 50% off) and the Portal Bundle ($6.24 - 75% off), as well as the Majora's Mask OST Platinum gift from Club Nintendo. Beats the traditional 3-poster set they offer and it's my favorite Zelda game so it was pretty much a no-brainer ^^

A friend managed to get me Minecraft, I will have to pay them back but it is a fun game nevertheless!

I got EarthBound on VC. Now I have it twice!

Persona 3:FES - $9.99
Skull Girls - $14.99
Ooooooh I'm going to have A LOT of fun with Persona 3

Pre-ordered Shadowrun Returns. (Internet buzz.)

Bought Reus. (Caught my eye in class.)

Together, they cost $25.48.

Just came back from a trip, so unfortunately I did not hear of the news until just today, but...




...EarthboundonWiiU...






...ohmygodearthboundonwiiu

Finished paying off my preorder of Pokémon X yesterday.

While Apple was celebrating the 5th anniversary of the App Store's opening, they selected 5 games and 5 general apps, and offered them for free. Of the ten programs they listed, my most notable "purchases" were:
- Native Instruments Traktor DJ, a powerful virtual DJ app with lots of features. Normally $4.99 for iPhone and $19.99 for iPad.
- Infinity Blade II, a gorgeous action RPG game, normally worth $6.99.

System only PlayStation 3 (CECHG01 - 40GB) - $40 from a garage sale.

Looks like it was a GameStop refurbished system. Played PS1 games just fine as did Blu-Ray video (this isn't the backwards compatible with PS2 model, but that's alright). I've been controlling it with a USB controller until I can get actual DualShocks for it and don't have any PS3 games to test with. Beyond that though, seems to be running good so far. Currently doing a full system wipe (only 2 hours to go...).

EDIT: Got a red Dual Shock 3 to go with it off eBay for $17.50 shipped. Less than $60 for a full PS3 setup, not bad.

Gravity Rush (29.99)
Hot Shot Golf (19.99)
8 GB vita memory card (19.99)

Traded in some gaming stuff I wasn't going to use/play anymore and in exchange got:

Banjo Tooie (N64)
Barnstorming (2600)
Freeway (2600)
Official Nintendo strategy guide for Mario Kart 64 (in excellent shape with original bumper stickers!)
Prima strategy guide for Conker's Bad Fur Day (in excellent shape, worth about $20-30)

I also sold some other game stuff to Cat which I in turn got my first PS3 game from GameStop:
Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time - new for $20 (sheeh, only out for 5 months and already had a price drop to half).

I picked up a few games and guides. Nothing too exciting.

- Official Nintendo Paper Mario guide
- Prima Super Mario World guide
- Rad Racer II (NES)
- Star Fox Command (DS)
- Donkey Kong Land 2 (GB)
- Kirby's Block Ball (GB)
- WarioWare, Inc. Mega Party Game$! (GCN)
- Wii Remote

Man I love pawn shops. Ruby Version for $8. I was gonna try to haggle to $10 if it was higher, but I didn't need to~♪
