Just got back from my first anime convention EVER. Took forever to find these, about 3 hours in the dealer room sifting through effing Hatsune Miku, Sword Art Online, and Attack on Titian, and just about every Project Tohou thing made, to find just these two. Instant bought soon as I found them. Sorry about the picture quality, was super tired when I got home and just snapped them and passed the f out.

Hoping to add a 3DS to this thread in 2 weeks -crosses fingers-

It's finally my time to play this game! Missed it completely on the GameCube so I'm very excited to play it

Been a while since I posted a pick up, but I felt today warranted it even though it's not much.
Got these today for my birthday, a jacket from my gf and a shoulder bag from her mum!

Got some more stuff coming in the mail later this week, though.

Part II of my second surgery from the dentist continues fellow GAFfers.

Bills, bills and medicine. Last two months were terrible for the wallet. Why are these things so expensive...
:(
 
So, September was a busy month....

Let's take a look at the damage done.

First of all the fairly new stuff:
- Metal Gear Solid: Special Missions (PS)
- ZombiU (Wii U)
- the £5 Yakuza: Dead Souls (PS3)
- and Tomb Raider (PS3)

The meat of my spendings went to old stuff though. The ultimate goal is to have all Konami cartridge releases for MSX in my collection. So, all carts with product codes RC7xx.

Complete In Box stuff, and non-Konami Japan cartridges:

Very pleased with Space Manbow. Such an awesome game.

Loose Konami cartridges, I added the game titles for those wondering.

Why did you buy so many? For gifting purposes?

The retail value on CE's seems to plummet after the first month.
I had the CE preordered; the SEs were an impulse buy when they showed up back in stock for shipping, since they seemed to be be running out of stock everywhere.

If nothing else, I'm pretty sure I can get rid of them at cost and effectively turn the $230 of Best Buy store credit I spent on them into cash.

I dunno how I was able to find this gem. I traveled to the bad part of the south side of Chicago (2.5 hour travel using train and buses) just to get it. It was all worth it. Last one in retail to have it in a 100 mile radius it seems too.

Here we go. It's finally happening.

In addition to the backlog of PSN+ titles I've acrued (presently working on downloading them! Rayman Origins, Metal Slug, Gravity Rush, and others) I picked up Muramasa Rebirth and Soul Sacrifice. I love beautiful 2D games, and I am a fan of Inafune and Soul Sacrifice was really speaking to me.

Initial impressions of the Vita hardware is the same as anyone else -- It's beautiful, solid, it feels great and looks great.

Point me to the nearest bathroom. Let's do this.

Looks like we both got lucky - although I had to resort to ebay for my copy. Paid a slight premium, but it's brand new and sealed, so I'm happy. Arrived today, wasn't expecting it to be so big!

Other pickups for me so far in October:

Hatsune Miku - MikXperience e.p. - An Xperia collaboration release in Japan.

Oneohtrix Point Never - R Plus Seven 2xLP

Sena Kashiwazaki from Haganai figure - to go with Yozora, who is less than impressed at Meat's arrival!

Needed a step up from my Samsung Phone for listening music on my way to work.







Friday or Monday my new in ear headphones from amazon uk should arrive.
 
Got a Wii U (zelda bundle) last month


and some figures that were spread around the month but not posted so here you go.

-Wolverine(Practically every Marvel Vs title by capcom)

-Sagat EX (Street Fighter Alpha 2). He is huge and bigger than I expected. Finally building a proper cabinet to display all my stuff.

And a picture of them next to each other so you can get an idea of their scale


-Shaak TI(from Star Wars Force Unleashed)

The WiiU converter works with PS3 as well. EDIT: it works with XMB, netflix and hulu. Seems a dead pad on games.
