@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

nobody is bragging about "getting a good deal" after paying just a couple bucks under the perpetually available, unsold BINs.
That is exactly why i like the thread on here instead. It's more of a discussion at times. Which is great for me to find new games to look for and whatnot.

I will openly admit that 95% of the time when someone posts a video in a finds thread I will just skip it.  I agree that pictures and text are a lot faster to go through than a video, plus I can just scroll and stop if something catches my eye. 

I personally try to write a little bit about there why/how I grab particular stuff so others can read if they care, but it's mainly for my own desire to document that particular find so I can remember where I got it if I'm looking back at stuff.

I have historically avoided the "what shit did you fucking tarts buy today?, you fucking twats" thread because I was jealous.

Then, desperate for conversation, I started reading it and commenting every once in a blue moon.

But, basically, fuck you all.

I look at that "what did you buy" thread now and then to see if maybe there is a game out there that I missed that I may want to try, and make a mental note of it. I just kinda treat it with the same mentality as I would when I jump on to read an HG101 article about stuff I may not have seen or played yet.

Outside of the lack of quality in editing or knowledge about what they're posting at times, I guess some watch their videos on youtube to show proof that there still are goodies to be had in the wild? 
It is different here - we know what we're talking about. Lack of knowledge about source material is the real reason I can't stand these "pickups" videos. A bunch of dudes waste their Saturdays running around to thrift shops and swap meets, just so they can come home and video tape themselves with their loose copies of Hot Wheels Racing All Stars and <insert random shitty common U.S. Genesis game>. Games that they'll probably never even fire up. Don't get why they even bother purchasing them, other than to add a "+1" to their collection total.

Slightly chilly > too damn hot. I'm glad I moved from the south to SF and then NYC. It can still get uncomfortably hot, but I wouldn't want to be back in southern weather ever again.

People who can't cross the street like normal fucking human beings.  :evil:

I have to drive through a part of "the hood" on my way to and from work, and for some reason even the simple task of crossing the street can't be done properly in this part of town. I was always under the impression that crossing from one side of the street to the other was a cut and dry exercise; (there's even a joke about a fucking chicken doing it without incident) you wait for traffic to clear, then you go across, 90 degrees straight ahead, from the sidewalk to the other side. Not only does this get you safely to the other side, but it minimizes the time you're on the street.

But lo and behold, the ghetto has this concept fucked up beyond all reason.  #-o Why the hell are people not only crossing the street as cars go by, but taking an ETERNITY to do it??? One guy crossed the street caddy corner for length of half a block. Why? He could've walked down the sidewalk to where he needed to cross and done it there, but he didn't. Now traffic has to avoid him as it passes which means damn near straddling the center line and squeezing oncoming traffic. In the event someone inadvertently hits that asshole, they're on the hook for it.  :evil: Another guy was just walking in the street. Perfectly good sidewalk ready for use, and the stupid fucker decides to walk up the street a foot out from the curb.  ](*,)
My past-life would've surely led to our demise, and I had left it not a moment too soon. Our escape, though dangerous, had gone well. The train ride, sunlight, and passing snow-covered pine trees came together in a flickering show of our bright, new future together. Her head rested on my shoulder as she soundly slept to the gentle rocking of the passenger car. We felt freedom. We felt peace.

We have something like that here where they think they own the fucking road and walk down the middle of the street holding their dicks (no really its how they walk holding their dicks) with a gangster lean. Maybe that's why it takes so long? this pimp limp they got going on is impeding their stride? It pisses me off even more when you stop to let some cross and the take all fucking day to do it. If someone stops for me to cross I make it a point to wave a thank you and hurry to cross as to not further hold up traffic. Get a fucking clue people the road is for cars not douche bags to walk on.

On my way to work I always pass by the unemployment office.  I feel so bad when I say this...  but the reason 85% of the people there are unemployed is because they can't even figure out how to cross the street.  It is literally a shit show every day and I am going to kill someone someday.

The other thing that happens at the same intersection is that cars on a one way street that is 3 lanes wide ALWAYS turn left into a parking ramp...  FROM THE CENTER LANE!  This, added with the mine field of people in the street, makes my drive a horrifying adventure every day.

Perhaps another way around this is having anyone here selling stuff... like not sell to people unless they're active-ish? And are not a-holes? Which probably won't happened....depending on how bad the person selling wants/needs the money they're trying to get for stuffs. Fuck. :(

Why did the chicken cross the road?
Answer: to get to the OTHER SIDE
I really don't think the chicken did it without any incidents... that's my interpretation of the "joke" anyway. I always thought it was a pun because the chicken might get killed if there is any incoming traffic while crossing the street.

I had to return that Neo-Geo:CD console I got a while back (cause it didn't work) and the buyer was fine. He said he'd refund my purchase price and up to $40 shipping, which is great... except that it's gonna cost me $89 at least to send this thing back to Japan!  ](*,)

What really get's me is the shipping costs to Canada, they're a border country. I live 35 minutes from Windsor, Ontario and it's cheaper to ship to California???

I'm not too sure about borders etc in the US/Canada but wouldn't it make more sense to cross the border and send from inside Canada? Or is that too much hassle what with the border and finding a post office etc?

If I was selling something for hundreds, yes. But the cost of gas & the border crossing fees (both ways) for most things I've sold would cost more than the international shipping. Plus the time involved, fucking terrorists ruined a lot of things.

pulstar

That sounds like a lot of pain/expense just to get over the border, and if you're only going to be saving a few bucks then there really isn't any point. Seems like they tightened up security a lot.

I was so upset because I usually have everything in plastic bins but I was storing all of this stuff in cardboard boxes at the bottom of a closet that shared a wall with the bathroom.

I spread out all the magazines and game manuals in front of 6 fans in an effort to dry things out, but you can't reverse water damage.
