Back on Friday I bought Need for Speed Underground 2 for PC. Then I'll be able to play through the game a few times without running out of memory, and I'll be able to mod it.

Does a "free" Majora's Mask (Virtual Console) count? I got it for 150 Club Nintendo coins (roughly three retail video game redemptions). It's still going through the 31st too.

If you hadn't mentioned that, I probably would have missed out. Thank you for helping bring back a piece of my childhood.

My most recent purchases would be Mario Kart 7 and technically Kirby's Dream Land from Club Nintendo. My eyes are now playing tricks on me.

My latest addition, a GameBoy Light. It's essentially the same as a GameBoy Pocket, but with a Electroluminescent backlight screen (like many of the cellphones/pagers/etc used during the 90s). These were only available in Japan so not many people know about them. Got it from someone off DigitPress (a video game collector forum I visit) for $30. The casing is a little scratched up, but other then that works great! And with that, I now have at least one of every GameBoy system released. I'll get a group photo of them all up later. EDIT: Pic of all the GameBoy systems is up

Oh yeah, two weeks ago I got a slim PS2 (silver one) with the hookups and two controllers for $20. I also got an N64 Dex Drive (device to back up N64 memory cards to computer) brand new in box for $11 with free shipping. In addition, I just ordered an N64 GameShark Pro V3.3 for another $10 so I can back up saves directly on cartridges as well. I haven't really been buying many games recently because I've been spending money to protect/nicely display my current collection of games.

Cool Got this at work from a friend of mine

Apple iBook G3, 466 MHz, 320 MB RAM.    
Click image for larger version

Name:	apple-ibook-g3.jpg
Views:	514
Size:	26.7 KB
ID:	2423


The guy gave it to me under the clause of "if you can get it to work, you can have it." It doesn't actually count as a purchase, although I did recently order a discounted power supply and a 20 GB hard drive for it. I hope my $40 investment pays off, and we'll see when the power supply comes in.

But the Jak and Daxter series is pretty fun, regardless.

Does getting Alliance of Valiant Arms (A.V.A), a Free to Play game, count as a recent purchase? I got it just for the unique weapon the Spy will get in TF2 for completing the second easiest achievement in A.V.A.

Two weeks ago I got a non-discolored *OMGRARE* Super Nintendo with two (really dirty) controllers, power supply, Super Mario World and Mortal Kombat 3 for $10. This now brings me up to three SNES systems (one fully discolored, one half discolored, one non discolored). I'll probably be selling off the fully discolored one with Super Mario World (since I already have it). I already sold MK3 and made half my money back already

I also got Super Mario RPG for $15. It's missing the label, but still a very good price considering they still go for $30-40. I also got something else that is kinda gaming related, but I'm not going to show it until it comes in the mail this week.

A Sega Dreamcast, controller, VMU (memory unit), composite (analog) video cable, power cord, and these two games:

- Sonic Adventure
- Test Drive 6

All of this, out the door, was $20 at my local pawnshop.

Well it has arrived, and I must say NONE of you are going to top this



That's right, a 1982 Commodore 64. This was THE computer to have during the 80s and was the best selling computer of all time.

For $20 (+ $15 shipping) I got the system with the floppy cable (the drive will be next purchase), power supply, and the original box:


Check out the specs for this beast:


And yes, I need to uphold my tradition of "obsolete and new technology working together"


To learn more about the Commodore 64, consult your local Wikipedia

I will now end this post, with a Commodore 64 commercial with a catchy song that WILL get stuck in your head

I now consider myself owned... nothing in my video game collection could ever top the legendary Commodore 64... no, not even my Sega Dreamcast. Regardless, you go have fun with that C64. Go make some killer chiptunes with it. :3

I got like 4:52 as my best record for the Time Trials. Took forever, but feels good to get that record.

Anyways, I pre-ordered Kid Icarus: Uprising this weekend, walking through a mile and a half of snow to the Gamestop, there and back.

Picked up Need for Speed ProStreet for $12 yesterday. I'm trying to force myself to not think that any NFS games past 2006 will inevitably be horrible.

There was also a PS2 for $30 where I bought it (GameStop inevitably), but for some reason I didn't get it.

A current-generation Apple AirPort Extreme wireless base station. Hopefully, this will resolve some of the connection issues I've had while using my computer on the second floor of my place.

I got Kid Icarus Uprising a few days ago. The game really impresses me with the new fighting mechanics; the only issue I have is controlling the camera angle.
Other than that, I received 5 AR cards with the game. At first I thought they we cool to just look at, but then I realized that you can make them fight each other. In the end I made Pit and Paletuna fight against each other, and Paletuna won

Let's see, I got 6 still in package e-Reader cards (Balloon Fighter, Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong 3, Excitebike, Pinball, and *I forget*) for $6. I also found two Donkey Konga controllers (1st party) at a thrift store for $5 each so I got those and then got Donkey Konga (complete) on eBay for $10 shipped.

My sister and I both got $10 to spend on whatever the heck we wanted this Easter weekend. I'm immature, so I got kiddy stuff. =w=
Btw I took a picture of my junk here, and yeah it's all on the bathroom sink, only place that had lighting at 11:20 pm. xP

Teeny-Tiny Pony figures
Warning: Contains Ponies    

Yaay, Pinkie Pie! x3


2 Pokemon TCG Booster packs
I can't take good pictues of multiple cards    

Disapointed to find no Purrloin, but I still got a Zorua, so that's good I guess... I have awful luck at opening GOOD booster packs actually. xP

Super Street Fighter 4 3D
I don't know why they complain about the backgrounds not moving, it's no big deal to me. I figured it would give me a good introduction to the fighting genre, and TBH, it's pretty fun.

Don't tell me that's a 4GB model. That was pretty much the biggest mistake I've ever made in gaming, because now I have to blow $130 on a hard drive that I would have had (as well as a headset and a shiny case) for only $100 more.

- Yamaha FX325 acoustic-electric guitar, to replace the Yamaha guitar I bought 9 years ago. I still plan to keep my 9-year-old guitar, but I'm probably going to let my mother use it, as she would like to learn how to play it. Maybe someday, my nieces will end up learning guitar with it as well. :3

- Hitachi Travelstar 500GB SATA II hard drive (rotational), to replace the dying 320GB that's currently in my MacBook with SATA 1. I've learned that SATA 2 drives will work with SATA 1 systems, although the drives will transfer at half of their fullest speed potential. (SATA 1 runs at 1.5 gigabits per second [Gbps], SATA 2 runs at 3 Gbps)

I'm a Craigslist shopper, so I got a used Xbox 360 "Pro" (the first revision) with a 20 GB hard drive for $70. Given it works with external drives too, I could just partition my external hard drive if I need to, and there are plenty of 120 GB drives on Craigslist cheap. As for red rings, the previous owners took good care of it and only wanted to get rid of it because they recently bought a slim model. While it's about 3˝ years old, it hasn't had any issues yet.

Fanatec CSR racing wheel
Xbox 360 hard drive
Need for Speed: Most Wanted (Xbox 360)
Need for Speed: Shift 2 Unleashed (Xbox 360)

In total, about $450.

More VMU's for my Dreamcast. The pawnshop owner said I could have a single VMU for $3, or two for $5, and I obviously doubled up on them. :3

Stuff I've gotten recently:

*Nintendo 64 + official Expansion Pak + RF adapter - $10 - I already have an Expansion Pak and can easily resell it for $20
*Spyro the Dragon: Year of the Dragon (PS1) - original release with original case/instructions. This will be replacing my current disk only game which I can sell for the $5 I spent on this
*PS2/PS3 component cables (official Sony brand) - also $5

If it counts, I spent $15 to get my old "suitcase" computer a new clock battery. Surprisingly, the same battery type is used in certain cameras. I also spent about $10 in CR2032 batteries to get my "new" Dreamcast VMU's to do more than store save data. It's times like this that Walmart and RadioShack can be my best friends. :3

On a related note...

For $27: a translucent "Jungle Green" N64, a controller, and two games:
- Donkey Kong 64
- Kirby 64

Can't forget about all the necessary cables, either.

Nice, those translucent N64 systems alone go for like $40-60.

Whoa... I never expected the translucent N64's to be worth so much. That being said, I'm hanging on to mine.

Although this hardly counts as a "purchase," I downloaded Super Monday Night Combat[explanation point].
It's fun, but it takes a little too long just to find a match.

More old technology time!

Got a Commodore 1571 5.25" floppy drive to go with my Commodore 64.


*Mario Kart included for size comparison of this bad boy. Weighs about 6.5 lbs.

Someone on DigitPress had it for free (just pay shipping (for me was $12)) since they were unable to test it. It powers up just fine, now to find some Commodore-formatted disks to test/use with it.

Bought lots of stuff this past weekend. Some for keeps, some I'm re-selling

Thrift store:
  • GameBoy Pocket (silver) - $5
  • SNES system (non-discolored) - $8 - should sell for $15
  • Ice Climbers (NES) - $3 - Bought it for myself thinking I didn't have it. Turns out I already did and already sold it for $4.50
  • Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker (N64) - $1.50 - should sell for $6-8

Garage sales:
  • Bushido Blade (PS1) and Final Fantasy VII (PS1) - $5 for both - should sell for $35-50
  • Backstage Assault (N64) and Fighting Force 64 (N64) - $1 each - should sell for $3 each
  • Wheel of Fortune (Genesis) + Genesis controller - $1 - should sell for $4
  • Silver GameCube with power brick, AV cables, 2 controllers and a PS2 controller - $10. Keeping the PS2 controller, possibly selling all the GCN stuff to a friend
  • Sega Genesis (model 1) + RF adapter, power brick, two controllers, 4 sport games, Mortal Kombat II, Lethal Enforcer + 2 lightguns, and three old gaming magazines from the end of 1994. - $12 - Gave away the sport games to Cat since I don't have interest in them and they are worthless. Keeping the system+controllers, selling MK, LE+guns. One of the two guns is kinda rare so I should be able to get about $50-60 for the set.

    Spent most of yesterday cleaning up all that stuff

- Sega Genesis Model 1 with High Definition (high resolution) Graphics - $10 without the cables. I already have all the necessary cables and stuff, so this was a steal of a deal for me.
- Jet Force Gemini (Nintendo 64) - $3
- Final Fantasy (NES) - $1
- Game Genie (NES) - $3

I've recently dismantled an old MIDI cable that I got for free, and it might be perfect for the Genny's AV out. I'll investigate wiring diagrams later. :3

Picked up Starhwak(PS3) $40
and also managed to pick up ANNO 2070(PC) and all it's DLC for $30. Normally all that would be $75. so I've got a fair deal on it.

I picked up Halo 3: ODST a few days ago, but I haven't touched it yet.

BLEEP BLOOP!
Xbox 360 (Arcade 512 MB) with 20GB harddrive and wireless controller. $80 by the time I was done with parts and whatnot.

Then at a garage sale last Saturday I got a box with the following mis-match of stuff for $20
2 gray N64 controllers with good analog sticks
PlayStation AV cables and a PS1 cheat device.
And the reason I bought the box: A Virtual Boy with controller, battery box, Telroboxer, Mario Tennis, and Red Alarm. Yes I currently have two Virtual Boy systems

I'm well aware of that. The Model 1 definitely beats the pants off of my Model 2, in every aspect.
