Recently I received a few original hand drawn sketches by Irrational Games' former lead concept artist Robb Waters. These sketches were directly used to create the plasmid training film in the original Bioshock.
The final product:

The game autographed by lead animator Grant Chang, music & sound director Keith Arem, and senior concept artist Robb Waters.

Early December pickups:
A PlayStation TV and some food for it.
A couple of loose Master System carts
Ys IV for the PC Engine
Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millenium Girl. Seems to be only going up in price nowadays so I picked it up before it runs OOP.
Also Persona Q + Tarot cards which completes the set of cards.
And finally Alien Hominid

Black Friday/Cyber Monday Pickups:
-I got all of these from Half-Price Books on Black Friday.
-I got Bad Santa & the Blade Trilogy from Wal-Mart, Glee S4 & Paranorman from Amazon, and the others from Half-Price Books. Rare Exports is amazing!!
-I'm still planning to get DSII on PS4 next Spring, but I couldn't pass up this giant CE for $30! My Fire Stick from the $19 pre-order promo actually showed up on Black Friday.
-I finally got around to replacing the 360 I traded in earlier this year and grabbed the games super-cheap.
-With the exception of AC: Rogue ($25), Black Ops II ($15), Xillia 2 ($16), and TMNT ($15), I got all of these games for $5-10 each from Target.
-I got all of these games super-cheap from Best Buy, Target, & Amazon.
-I stocked up on eShop cards at Best Buy and got all of the games for $10-15 each.
Pickups from other random sales in December:
-I found the top 4 books for 59 cents each at Goodwill and the guides in the bottom row were on clearance for $2 each at Half-Price Books.
-I got these nifty boxer sets from Target.
-I grabbed the Pikmin plush on sale at Target, found the R2D2 Simon game & Master Chief figure dirt cheap at Goodwill, and found the Wave 2 Amiibos at Gamestop.
-I got all of the Disney/Ghibli Blu-Rays & Avengers Confidential from Target, GotG from Amazon, Thor 3D from eBay, and the others on clearance at Half-Price Books.
-I got these PC games for 99 cents each at Goodwill.

-I found all of these accessories super-cheap at Goodwill and Half-Price Books.
I grabbed the Official Nintendo/Sony Component cables from Gamestop as backups because they're both becoming pretty hard to find.
-I got both recently released Kingdom Hearts Limited Editions - can't wait for KHIII!
-I got the pre-owned games during Gamestop's 30% off sale and the new games from Amazon's recent sales.
I originally ordered P4A Ultimax when Amazon had it for $29.99 and it didn't come with the bonus items so I re-ordered it when it dropped to $24.99 (already sent back the $30 copy) and was pleasantly surprised when it showed up with the bonus stuff!
-I got all of the PS4 games between Best Buy's B2G1 and Amazon's recent sales. I got the pre-owned Vita games for 30% off at Gamestop.
-I got Captain Toad and both NES Remix games from Best Buy and the other games for 30% off at Gamestop.
-I got the Radical Dreamers repro on eBay, got the NES games at Half-Price Books (I've been looking for MM6 & Battetoads for years!), and all of the Game Boy stuff at Goodwill.
The Pink GBASP is an AGS-101 model.

Spare charger for my 3DS, love that it uses USB so it's one less plug have to bring with me when I travel:
New sweater for Christmas (was 30% off):
A book that has had a harrowing journey to me (it's taken over a month to sort it out with Amazon UK, but that's another story):
Although I do have a few pairs of Audio-Technicas and and old pair of Sennheisers, my inner hypebeast won... Plus, it was on sale when I got it at the Apple Store today:
Have some more stuff coming this week...

CoD was pretty much for the novelty value of seeing a bloody Vita game being sold in ALDI of all retailers. $14? Sure, why not.

Really happy to have this arrive just before Christmas :3
I expected a lot more things to arrive this month but they didn't. I may get a few more games this month but it won't be near as many as I wanted. Anyway, I got already those 3 games and 2 DS NFR carts:
I got the Medieval game because I needed a new case for my RE HD Remaster and this game was pretty cheap. Tony Hawk 3 N64 was a game that I wanted for a long time and I found a CIB one last month on ebay and it arrived this week. Earth Defense Force is one of my favorites series and I really wanted this one, it has just arrived, I will definitely play it on the weekend.
Zelda Phantom Hourglass and Tetris were two demos that I wanted to add to my collection and those two made me start thinking about getting into NFR collecting. Since I bought them, I have already bought more than 20 carts. Now those carts need to arrive but this won't happen until mid-January.

My purchases from these last months. Bought a lot of games digitally, so I don't have much to show, but still !
First, PS4 bought in Japan, in Osaka, used one for 30 000 yen, quite cheap !
Glad I bought it, I enjoy it, but can't wait for Bloodborne. ALready finished Killzone, Infamous, etc...
WiiU Love :
I keep on improving !
But as I said, I bought many games on PS Network, Nintendo Eshop, or Steam.
This includes : Danganronpa 2, Killzone Mercenary, Disgaea 4 (All on Vita).
Rayman Legends on WiiU, Assassin's Creed Unity (PC), Dark SOuls 2 (PC), etc...

I got a pair of Solo 2s (Red) last month also. I'm really impressed with how much of an improvement they are over the Solo HDs. They're way more comfortable, the bass has been toned down a bit for a better range of sound, and they have a much higher build quality.
I really dig that Whtie/Blue edition though. Great color scheme!

On the shelf, on the right, I can see a PlayStation game, a fat case. It says Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops and something. What is it?

Silent Hill: Origins, it's a Konami Double Pack.

Wow, sharp-eyed.
That´s nothing special though: just a cardboard sleeve with 2 Konami games in it. One of them double packs: MGS Portable Ops + Silent Hill Origins.
hMMM that stand... was it that massive Toshiba 34"? Looks a lot like the one I had. It was a great TV, NGC looked pretty cool on it back then.
I had to get one at £50. I also bought a 32GB memory card to go with it.
£50? From where?
Videogamesplus.ca were doing a sale during Black Friday.

Not the first time this happened with that host. Anyone else who can't see the pics?
Why not just use imgur or abload?

I have to admit, I hated the look of the original Solos as they looked really cheap and am not too crazy about the price they command in general. Once the Solo 2s came out, I found myself liking the design more and were far more comfortable. Something about how the earcups sit on my ears is just right, though I prefer over-ear cups actually.
Due to these being a collaboration with Fragment, as well as wrestling with kinda wanting a pair to mess around with, I went with these. The headphones themselves are actually shiny silver (and attract fingerprints like crazy lol) but are then trimmed in white and have Fragment's iconic blue used for the text.
Here's a quick pic of them out of the box:

Hey, hey, I know that Book Series
Hello fellow "Japanese for Busy People" reader Been studying the first book for a good year now in the Japanese Class I attend. We start studying Book II next year. Do you read anything else on the side? The Genki text books perhaps?
