The “What-Did-You-Buy-Today?” Thread

I received Shadow of the Colossus back in Christmas of '05 and played the hell out of it. Last year I got the HD version but it was taken during the theft I experienced this year. This all reminds me that I need to get it again. I'll pick it up tomorrow.

[TR0N]

The only game for the month and it being a xmas gift from family.

I, too, am a proud owner of the Super Fami version of the Toitles. I never could track down the US version for a reasonable price.

The weird thing is the price is reversed now i see the sfc version going for more.Other difference being,the snes version has more continues while the sfc is less.

Ah, I didn't know they made a PS3 HD version. That must be pretty kickass!

I was real mad when they had it so that your horse is killed off! I loved that horse DAMN YOU, and those bastards killed it off right as our adventure came to an end!!!!! That was low!! Heh-heh.

Ashe bought it for me last week and I am being consumed by trying to find the secrets in every level.

BOOM BABY! Sony PVM-2950Q. Had to drive down to Chicago for this one. I've been waiting to get another PVM for years - this deal was too good to pass up. It's practically in mint condition.

[PunkCryborg]

Damn 29" with the speakers, sure that weighs like 200 pounds

[BlueBMW]

Considering the 20" version weighs in around 120lbs, that wouldnt surprise me a bit punk!  Congrats jeff!

[jeffhlewis]

I was able to lift it solo onto the cabinet it's on but I had to use a hand truck to get it from the garage to the elevator in my apt...think it's about 150 lbs. or so.

[Opethian]

nice PVM with remote!!!

[PukeSter]

Bought:

Street Fighter Alpha Saturn
Sega Rally Championship Saturn
Ridge Racer 64
Saturn Controller

[PCEngineHell]

Treats from Sparky and other stuff too. If anyone is interested, the Alien versus Predator Gold Box for pc is new/sealed and is some special version of the gold box that includes the strategy guide. The normal Gold Box evidently did not include this. Would consider selling or trading it for Sega related stuff, as I already have another copy of the game.

Glad they arrived Prof ....To get them across the border Canadians need to write " chickens have large talons " on the package and "Tony" will look after the rest

I will never forgive that company for creating the most disturbing, unholy television commercial I have ever seen.

My quite belated Black Friday order from NIS America arrived yesterday:


2014-01-07 NISA by xcrement5x, on Flickr

Prinny Plush for my daughter
Free Flonne squad sticker
Free Witch and the Hundred Knight button pack


2014-01-07 NISA Poster by xcrement5x, on Flickr

Peer Pressure Art Print
http://store.nisamerica.com/Collectibles/neptunia-victory-peer-pressure-artprint

I also picked this up from NISA but it's weird, the copy they sent me is kind of jacked up.  It's got bend marks on it on the edges and face, there are some smudges and tape on the back of it.  I'm not sure if it's their last copy or what.  It's a shame since it's such a nice print too.  Hopefully customer service will fix this for me.

I also got Class of Heroes 2 Kickstarter Edition from DragonmasterDan in a trade!

Plus I was at Whole Foods the other day and saw this:

Bonk Breaker by xcrement5x, on Flickr
(my apologies for the crappy phone picture)

A Bonk Breaker Energy Bar!

It would be cooler if it was in the shape of meat on a bone.

[NecroPhile]

If Prinny was for your daughter, can we assume this print was for your wife?  You wouldn't want her to feel left out. 

[PikachuWarrior]

its for the dog

[xcrement5x]

I plead the 5th on the poster ;)   No word from NISA yet about a replacement but I know they're pretty swamped with orders now.

[NecroPhile]

Thanks to le opa-opa, I now have a copy of Puyo Puyo CD Tsu. 

[Opethian]

glad you like the tsu! took me some time to find one not rape priced and I found 2.

[TR0N]

Yes i finally bought one and that's it for a while to on consoles  Still setting it up was a pain with firmware updates and such.

[TheClash603]

Are there two retail games included in the box or is it digital copies?

You're telling me! It took me hours and hours to set my Wii U up last month. Enjoy it though as it's a fine system.

[Ninja Spirit]

[Opethian]

the bomber king theme song is legendary!

[wildfruit]

Wii u is awesome

[Nando]

what game is this?

[munchiaz]

what game is this?

Terranigma. Its a action RPG with a top down view, like Zelda. Its part of the gaia series of games, which include Soul Blazer, Illusion of Gaia, and Terranigma

[xcrement5x]

Nice!  I just gave a Terranigma US translation repro to a buddy for Christmas.  He'd played the other two games but not this one so he was excited.

[munchiaz]

I still need to play Illusion and Terranigma. I have a repo for Terranigma. Damn i need more time for games

Terminator CIB. Still waiting for Sol-Feace to arrive in the mail.

Motoi Sakuraba absolutely killed it on the Sol Feace soundtrack; still one of my top 5 favorites of all time:

Sol-Feace Soundtrack - Stage 1 (Mega CD)

Nice!

Easily one of the best Sega CD games ever.  I love it!

Congratz!

[NightWolve]

/b529db68770311e39264128ba2e31fd7_8.jpg

That's a wonderful game, but wouldn't the officially translated UK version have been the better one to score ?

Are there repros going around ?? The official UK carts are hard to find now ?

[EvilEvoIX]

I got these, mostly commons but the Doom 32X is brand new in the plastic.  Ghouls & Ghosts is amazingly good in terms of playability over the SNES.  I actually enjoy the NES version over the SNES version.  The Soccer Game is actually quite good but I mostly play Neo Geo Soccer.  KOTM2 is a giant piece of shit I just got it because I didn't have it.

Yup it was having to sync up it's controller,then the updates plus having to make a id so i could use youtube&netflik  Though i still need to download the program so i can transfer my digital games from wii to wii u.

That isn't something that exists at retail...  my two separate discs are jealous.

I guess,it was a good thing then that i didn't buy a wii u at launched and hold out.Any company can pulled that stunt off for a game that is just a pack in for said console.

[bob]

wow, I thought they would have been digital.
the damn Zelda pack was digital.
