Seems like I've seen several Viva Pinata: TiP pickups lately. Never did play my copy...time for a GAF lttp?
 
Heh, I had to ask them to open the box to check if everything was alright before I left the store

Dents worry me :lol
 
Kai Ozu I see what you're doing there..... You've got a next gen "NeoGeo" setup going on... very awesome pickups.
 
I don’t notice any lag, and I don’t know if DS1 will work. It says PS2 all over the box, so. And any 360 controller will do.

And yes, it's almost perfect. All I need is more Neo games on these systems and it will be all good. :D

Almost perfect? What makes it "almost"? I want to buy one for games that need a decent D-Pad & Katamari, but it is too pricey if there is a possible dealbreaker.

I support you in your efforts sir! I also suddenly developed an appreciation for the black 360 Elite. I always liked the white 360 as a kind of "New Dreamcast", but a "New NeoGeo" concept works well too :)
 
To be safe, I would wait for reviews about this thing if you are that serious about it. From what I have played with my many ps2 arcade sticks, it works perfectly. The only thing that holds it back is the guide button is on the converter itself.

I didn't write my review yet but.

I tested over 40+ PS1/PS2 sticks.

It is good.

Worth it.
 
so it's time for some upgrades to my PC...

got a new monitor, Asus 24" 1080p:

LOL...it looks like you have a limited Danboard Prime in the background!:D
 
"being all banged up" means exactly what?

Exactly what it says, pretty much all the slim boxes seen so far have a corner bashed in.
Oooh! I had no idea :lol Thanks
 
I pretty much didn't get diddly squat in August.

This is why:

$550 -_-


I did just get this in the mail yesterday:

I got it off Amazon since they were having an awesome sale on memory sticks the other day (they still might). I got the 8 gb Memory stick for $20. $25 with shipping.

Normal price is usually around 70 or 80 dollars aren't they? Either way, awesome for only $20.

Also Batman came the same day from Gamefly. Not really a pic up though. :lol
 
Traded some games in at Amazon and picked these two up.

Carnival Games was for my Mom. Her birthday was on the 16th and I wanted to pick it up for her since she has been commenting about it every time she sees a commercial for it.

To repay for this sin I preordered Scribblenauts with the remaining trade in credit.

Tales of the Abyss and Suikoden 3 would've been complete if gamestop didn't decide to put their stickers on the covers...idiots.

So damn true, those stickers are evil, proof enough that Gamestop is the work of the devil.
 
my best friend was nice enough to get me the XFX 285GTX video card for my birthday(aug 26th).

:D
