I finally got some stuff!
It's an Olevia 527v and I've been saving for so long to get one. I love it!
These are the games I got. They breathe new life into my underused 360.
This is 500 gigs of hard drive space. It is also well loved.
I chose not to photograph my shitty off-brand VGA cables. I thought I was so smart in saving $20 but instead I wasted $20 on Pelican cables that don't fit right. The color seems a little washed out over VGA anyway.

Got this today and was raped on the UPS courier charges ($45 plus $12 shipping on eBay, WTF) which was completely unecessary since I've received the same type of package for $10 shipping. The case isn't cracked but doesn't close cleanly and the manual isn't completely flat, but the disc is almost like new. I'm happy overall.

Eh, be happy. PS1 games with manuals is a pain to find. :|

So... you payed for the game (how much?) + $42 [UPS] + 12 [eBay]... WOW!...
That's for shipping. I didn't expect it to be freakin' hand delivered, I didn't want that. The game itself was what you'd expect a rare PS1 game to cost. It's no Valkyrie Profile though.Farore said:So... you payed for the game (how much?) + $42 [UPS] + 12 [eBay]... WOW!...
And to Alu, I think Phoenix Wright is more of a rental unless you really want to support Capcom...

I have several erections at once. Well, once my eyes moved past the first two games in the picture! =) Impressions of Lode Runner DS plz~
I picked up some more budget PS2 stuff *everyone is surprised*
Wanted to get Picross DS too, but Target didn't have any in so I was all like 'oh' and couldn't be arsed going to EB for a price match.

Never heard of James Pond?
It's an old 2D platformer from the Amiga/SNES and so forth, directly ported to the PS2 for lol. The other two are localized Japanese budget games. I thiiiink Darwin's getting an American release next month (a clone of Pikmin.. but with monkeys!)

Yes it's my first DS, and I'm really glad I finally bought it. I already ordered a few other DS games, like Phoenix Wright and Ouendan. I LOVED castlevania PoR, beaten it 6 times all in all in a row.

Very nice! I'm always looking for good condition PSX games I don't have. And Persona for 57USD is an amazing bargain.

Case mods ftw!
Now the Wii looks more at home in my setup.

Might have to pick that one up. A pawn shop has it. Next time I stop there I'll pick it up (if they still have it).

I did it myself. It's a bit more involved than my chrome 360 case mod, but it's still rather simple. Once I get my other Wii back from repair, I'm gonna go the chrome route with that one.Smokey Bones said:
Here are my pickups from june and the end of may. Took this picture with my new SE W610i cellphone with 2 MP camera, just to test it out. The picture quality in the dark with artificial lighting doesn't look all too hot (like I anticipated), it's much better in natural lighting conditions by day. I haven't really tweaked around with the image settings though.

I'm relatively (holy shit 2 birds just ran right into my ****ing window!) pleased with it. I'm trying to wade through The Longest Journey before I get into Dreamfall since you get both games in the package. It's a bit overwhelming as the point and click adventure genre can be a bit obtuse and frustrating. Story and presentation are great though.
Haven't picked it up yet, what with it not being out, but I'm very excited about
