These two alone are worth the price to me. The Unplugged performance was something I have always wanted.

Unfortunately the Unplugged DVD isn't the complete show, they left out Rockin' in the Free World :\

New video card and 4GB of RAM for a better DoW2 experience.

The Road and A Game of Thrones because it has been too long since I've sat down and read some books that weren't for school.

A Game of Thrones is good, although it gets a bit too heavy on the "politics" for my tastes. I'd like to recommend "The W'itch" series by James Clemens--it's quickly become one of my all-time favorites, especially because the character development is so excellent, yet the story never slows down.

I don't mean this in a troll way at all but I am suprised with how many people are getting DSi's. I'm pretty ignorant on the subject, what is so good about them? I know they have a camera but they no longer have a GBA slot right? What are the big improvements that so many people seem to be ditching their DSL's for?

Slightly bigger screen, improved speakers, better D-pad, 4 times the RAM and a slightly faster processor. Also the DSiWare stuff, and DSi-exclusive/enhanced carts in the future.

The bigger screen and matte finish are really all the bullet points I need to guarantee a purchase.

I only jumped onto the DS bandwagon with the lite, and I've played it nigh the breaking point already.

Ecclesia on DSi will be made of wins.

Couldn't care less about the crap cameras.

What are the advantages of this? Are they going to come out with DSi only games?

Also, I heard a rumor (that I totally could have made up in my head) that it makes 3D games look better. I can't find a source so maybe my memory is just jumbled.

Traded in my white lite to fund the game purchases. I was after Henry Hatsworth as well, but they had apparently sold out.

How is it?

I've been holding off on buying SAS in the hopes that a NA Blu-ray version materializes, but I kind of doubt it at this rate. I'd love to get that JP box set, but it's pretty expensive...

DSi, not the MacBook obviously. I picked it up for £52.49 after trading in my DS Lite and redeeming my reward points. I knew I was saving them for something good!

Loving it so far! I also have a 4gb SDHC on order.

Wasn't this set like 40,000 yen or so? I know there were two sets coming out at a crazy price...
Strike said:
Dude, how much did you spend on that?
I paid 57,720 yen for this part, 34,780 for the second part coming out in June.

Kagari said:
Awesome. I really want this set... but it's too expensive :( I loved CCS back in the day though. How's the BD transfer?
Overall it’s great; definitely the best version available. It does have an odd color effect on the top and bottom edges of horizontal lines; I don’t tend to notice it in motion but it’s easy to see if you look for it in stills.

Dead said:
Jesus christ, I cant believe you bought this, considering the price!
Haha, I don’t know whether to think of it as expensive or not. The per-ep price is lower than any other TV series I’ve bought on BD, but it’s also 10 years old, so I dunno. Bandai’s Minky Momo BD boxes are around 30% cheaper.

Also came with this poster.
I ordered it from HMV, which as you can see, just kind of folded it and stuffed it in the box.
CD Japan/Neowing would have sent it in a poster tube, but CD Japan charges SRP (78,000 yen), so, yeah.

I got an Un-Pickup today.

Our house was broken into and my PS3 and Wii (with games), and PSP were stolen >=0

I'm not happy. I won a MadWorld T-shirt from Sega, but now I no longer even have the game or a console to play it on TT_TT Damned hoodies/teenagers/druggies!! >=0


Dude, that sucks! I'm sorry to hear that. I know how that feels as I had my PSP forcefully stolen while walking to work a couple of years ago. =/
 
Got my 5th DMG in a few days ago with a light boy. $10 on ebay.

Got Little Sound DJ on my GB Cart that was flashed by nonfinite with LSDJ stickers $50 , a free NES Controller TIN with that purchase, appropriate DMG opening tool aka screw driver $3.00, Extra DMG screen $3.00
DSC01032.jpg

Picked these three up today so I wouldn't have to scurry and find them on Sunday for DSi action! :D Peggle $20, Korg $30, Henry $30.

And for kicks a delicious meal.

I was hoping for a NA release but this was released summer of last year and I have heard NOTHING about it coming to North America since then. I decided that I was just going to go a head and order it.

So far it's really good, it was a better transfer then I had thought it would be. From what I've watched, I've noticed a lot more details while watching first and second gig in the characters and the backgrounds. The real BIG improvement is the sound quality. Dolby True HD uncompressed soundtrack sounds wonderful on my setup.

The art book is VERY well done and there is a TON to take in...

Where are you located? I was going to order from Play Asia or yes Asia but my friend staying in Japan told me that I can place an order on Amazon JP, pay for it using my Canadian CC, and get it shipped to my Canadian address.

It worked, it was shipped via FedEX and it arrived in 3 business days...

Sorry to hear. I hope the police find the culprits (doubtful). Hopefully, you had home owners insurance...as those are pretty expensive items to replace.

Yeah. It was a launch PS3 with the PS2 emulator too :(

Opoona for € 10, sweet deal. Lego Batman for € 29,99.

I recognize those price tags :) Is this Saturn in Belgium (Antwerp)? If so, I might just go there and pick those games up.
