Found a Gunpla place in San Jose today(Tatsu Hobby, they have an online store with a pretty decent selection too) and ended up walking out with this:


MG Turn A and a couple Gundam markers for panel lining. Wing Gundam Fenice, Crossbone X1, and F91 are all on their way too.

RIP me.

-edit.. Changed upload sites



I was in my local BookOff bookstore with my wife and came across what looked to be someone's Sega Saturn RPG collection in the bargain bin. Everything was in perfect, complete packaging. I ended up only buying the things I thought I'd end up playing. I'm not looking to collect the whole Saturn library.

At 108 yen a pop I made a killing.



I always avoided picking this one up either because the slipcover was always faded and damaged or it was missing the slip cover all together. Today I lucked out and grabbed one in mint condition with the memory card labels.



I already had a copy of ElHazard but my original got mangled by my son. Just like Rayearth it was in mint condition. Totally stoked. Now all I want is a copy of Nadesico and Slayers and I think I'll be good with my anime Saturn game collection...

Just came back from Japan, so I have a few goodies this month :) Hightlights are my Youkai Watch 3DS and games (Youkai Watch, Pokemon X, Gundam Tryage SP and both Taiko no Tatsujin games) and a boxed copy of Tetris Battle Gaiden.

Also picked up Sengoku Basara 4 because I need more Masamune English in my life.

New headset and fangamer shirt.
Previous was a Corsair Vengeance 1500, was great, lasted more than two years, but wanted something new when it broke earlier this week.
 
My first post to show us your gaming goods!

I've recently finished building my new gaming PC. I currently have it sitting on crap vanity type desk (it came with my rented apartment) but I'm super pleased with everything else. Also, new comfy chair for those long gaming sessions!

My Sim from T-mobile isn't in yet, so I haven't been able to test voice calling. One weird quick in a couple hours of play is that it dropped from my 5GHz wireless network, claiming to be avoiding a weak connection. 2.4GHz has been fine.

Nice phone. I signed up on the site to get an invite.... But my estimations put me being selected sometime in 2016.

Picked up a few things for my PC recently.

HumanScale Freedom Chair. Most comfortable office chair I've ever owned. I'm pretty much in front of my PC all day because of work and games so I figured it was worth the investment.


Oculus DK2. Super cool tech. Even my non gaming family and friends have had their minds blown with this thing.


Corsair Vengeance K70 with Cherry MX Blue switches. My first mechanical keyboard. SO MUCH better than the rubber dome shit I've been using my whole life!

Oh wow, seeing those prices makes me very happy with my ISP. €40 for 120/12mbps with everything included such as phone/HD channels. Still jealous of Csokis's 1Gbps connection .....
You'll survive the generation :p

I pay 19€ for the exact same things you describe ;)

But yeah even if it's quite good, 1Gbps sounds like a dream.
 
Rest in peace, money.
I bought Princess Mononoke for a friend last Christmas and let's just say that I'd be broke if I were a Studio Ghibli fan...
Yeah, you have no idea. In between taking that photo and posting it here, I ordered 9 more. I'll have everything at least. I ordered three last month too. At least there aren't any more to spend money on, haha.

How are the leds on your k70? I've been thinking about buying one but have heard lots of stories of dead leds either on arrival or 1-2 weeks after use.

Oh, I'm aware. The weeaboo avatar does not lie.

Well, with one collection out of the way, how about saving up for another?

:D

Sadly not stable, yet. Here is the another test:

3689241582.png


Btw 6700HUF/month (~22EUR/29USD) this 1000/100Mbit NET here, in Hungary! :)

Damn that's some sick stuff!
Just wondering though, what's the price weight compared to the average salary there? 22€ a month is a damn steal but I guess it sounds so amazing only because it's a straight up value conversion, not proportional to the actual cost of living.
If it's still effing cheap, well, time to move to Hungary lol

I picked it up 5 days ago, and they all seem to be functioning at this point. Can't speak for how long they will last.

On another note, picked up a whole bunch of stuff for my home theater/console setup in the basement.

Reclining leather movie theater style couches.


Klipsh Reference RF-62 speakers paired with an SVS PB-2000 sub woofer running through a Denon AVR-X1100W 7.2 receiver.


Work great with the Panasonic VT-60 and really bring games & movies to life.

• Piano sheet music from Canadian musician Chilly Gonzales
• Guitar picks from legendary soul record label Stax Records
• Nintendo 2DS (almost 60% off MSRP)
• Mario Golf: World Tour (3DS)
• The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D (3DS)
• Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia (PS2)
• Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica (PS2)
 
I got a little box from Amazon todayyyyyyyyyyyy. Nier artbook and 2 soundtracks. I fucking love Nier. How and why did Square Enix let this game go under the radar?


I'm getting the Piano Collections too, but it's coming from Japan and will take awhile.
 
I was in my local BookOff bookstore with my wife and came across what looked to be someone's Sega Saturn RPG collection in the bargain bin.

Oh sweet jesus how I miss Book-Off. Like, an infinite amount of retro treasure for 100 yen a pop. It was so good to me.

Seems legit:

What is this unholy thing?? Someone please tell me because google images is not giving me a result. EDIT: oh, it's a bootleg? I didn't even know they had SNES bootlegs and I sell a lot of retro games.

Well on my way to finishing the Twin Peaks Blu Ray set, diving straight into this when I'm finished.
 
The Twin peaks bluray set is out already?? I've been asleep at the wheel. That thing has been rumored for years, right?

I have the Gold Box already.... do I need to upgrade?
