Picked up a couple random games. I wanted to try Dawn of Mana for myself.

NICE! Have you played 4 Swords Adventures before?

 

[isny]

We don't have them in Canada either. So delicious. So jealous.

Lies, there is one in downtown Toronto which is amazing!

NICE! Have you played 4 Swords Adventures before?

I haven't, I don't think I ever played the version that came with my A Link to the Past on GBA either. While I don't have enough Gameboy advances for the serious multiplayer, I think I will be happy enough with the single player.

Valentine's day SWAG from the wife

1st Passport. Wife and I are leaving to go to Europe for a cruise today. We are going to Spain, Portugal, Casablanca, Morocco, and I think the Canary Islands. 9 days of no work, no BS and no SFIV. One of those things I am really going to miss :lol

 

[Lourio]

^ very nice! What cruiseline are you taking if you don't mind me asking?

 

[RagolSlayer]

Time to close the curtains, dim the lights, and spend the next ten hours sitting in front of my TV.

Shitty pic is the result of DSi camera + shaky hands.

 

[isny]

Some of my last Feb pickups arrived today!

Bioshock from the $9.99 sale at BB here in Canada, and Cowboy Bebop complete anime legends set as I've been putting it off for awhile and it was on sale!

(Man I spent too much this month, lol)

 

[beje]

sup GAF, look what came in the mail

BTW, if anyone wants the code for the Nintendo Club:

R4ZJ BYTK BCBN56MG

 

[lordoftherink]

Not too much for me this month. March is going to kill my wallet though.

 

[Schlep]

I wish I could become that immersed in a game. :lol

 

[Solune]

sup GAF, look what came in the mail

Very nice, where did you get it from and do they ship internationally?

 

[Salsa]

sup GAF, look what came in the mail

Wow, awesome. Impressions ?

Awesome, thanks!

Edit: It says it's not valid .

Looks like somebody was quicker, then

Edit: I'm less than an hour in and I already shat a whole building a couple times :lol I'm sooo not playing this with the lights off.

Controls are a little clumsy, but actually intuitive once you get the hang on them.

And if you want a copy, yesasia had them a month ago (when I made the order) though a little pricey (around $65) but with free international shipping. Remember you can get an english patch that will work as region-free as well with your original disk. No need to mod the console or patch isos at all!

BTW, mine came with a Wii Fit Plus ad brochure, so there has been a re-issue not long ago and the game shouldn't be that hard to find.

 

[MidnightScott]

Wow I post that I got it back in December and no one gave a shit (Fatal Frame 4)

Translation patch for the win, but it can't save the game from the abysmal controls.

 

[Datwheezy]

*EDIT* NVM, answered in post above

 

[Dai101]

Wait... there's a BS2 box with the shrink wrap still on... did you get 2 copies?

Oh no. It's the shrink wrap of the box, i cut it just from the sides so it doesnt falls and keep it that way. It was a bit hard to find here, and all other SE were already sold.

 

[rockmang15]

They been pushing for weeks now, "SOON!" then I Miss the release, sheesh. Everything else Square is on sale this week on iphone too!

What do you recommended off the menu for someone who has never ate at Chipotle?

Barbicoa Burrito loaded with rice and beans. Chips and Quac side FTW!!

That sucks - you would think someone would post to the thread that they were taking it. Grrrr.

How hard is it to apply the patch? Do I need to jump through hoops to do it? If it's easy then I'm totally in, love the series.

You just need half a brain cell to follow some easy steps:
Check your Wii menu version to get the correct loader
Get the patch itsef
Copy files into SD card
Access SD Menu/Data Management to trigger the loader installer/uninstaller
Once installed, repeat the previous step to start the loader
Insert original disk
???
Profit.

HAH! That's assuming I have half a brain cell .

YesAsia claims it's Japan-only. Is there more than one version? Sorry for all the questions...

Edit: Am I correct in assuming the loader allows the game to be region-free? That would explain it.

The patch will make it work on PAL and NTSC/UC consoles as well.

Fuck I forgot that it's February and posted in the Jan thread.

Anyways my first pick-ups of the month:

Picked up the poster, scarf and frames today.

FUCK YEAH TEGAN AND SARA

 

[desu]

Got my new graphics card today, not high end but quite a step up from a Ati 1950pro. Also these cards are freaking long!

 

[Machine]

I haven't posted anything in ages. Recent pickups include some games, an MST3K set, a very random selection of CDs, and some video-game themed bananas!

Fuck yeah Dolly Parton, the song Jolene is really good.

 

[Travado]

For those very few people that might be interested: Deadly Premonition is NOT regionfree contrary to some reports I've found. Too bad I can;t play it I was hoping this would be a pretty cool Z-grade game.

Beautiful Heavy Rain Boxart.

The Euro version of Heavy Rain always comes with this particular paper cover simulating rain involving the game, or it is a limited edition?

I hated the generic American cover, thinking to import the Euro one.

 

[naib]

Been waiting for a used copy of Bowser's Inside Story, but they always get snatched up. This is actually my 4th 360(thank you tax return!). Haven't had a working 360 for almost a year so I had to grab Fable 2(loving it so far). Heavy Rain, derp.

*obligatory iPhone pic appolgy
edit: actually, I just got the iPhone. But it's my work mobile and didn't cost a cent to upgrade. 16g 3GS. Refurb'd, but you couldn't tell looking at it.

Just bought this a cpl hours ago. Thanks PC screenshot thread!

That's the Heavy Rain CE, so I guess you could say it's limited. Very nice box.

am i a bad enough dude to rescue Ronnie?

 

[SonOfABeep]

Adding to the collection-

And my other sticks under the TV stand. The other TE stick is a PS3 one, and the other custom stick is the 360 one.

Been wanting a TE for 360 and the $100 price at gamestop was right.

Would be nice to collect all of these TE versions but I'm not that rich.

 

[Big Papa Husker]

Haven't posted for a week or so, but here is what I have picked up....

 

[JEKKI]

I donno what this is!! but Markmang got one so I wanted to get one too!!

But yeah enjoy your trip, especially the Moroccan food (the best in the world IMO)

 

[dc`]

I do believe this is my first pick-up post. It's not much. Also, sorry for the awful pictures. I lost my digital camera a while back and all I have is my phone.

Heavy Rain

Pink eye. Just what I need after 3 days of being sick. Yuck. I'm going to just go ahead and link this and let you gross yourself out if you must.

Where did you get the Cowboy Bebop?

 

[isny]

Where did you get the Cowboy Bebop?

It's been out for a couple of months now. I got it from BestBuy.ca here in Canada for $32ish, but I think RightStuf has it for less ($29) if you're in the U.S.

MUST OWN. But yea, great pick up bro.

 

[RocketDarkness]

Only 150 were put on sale, and I bought one!

 

[mooooose]

I'm pretty sure I have a DS case like that by Nyko from when the DS launched. It looks nearly exactly the same but doesn't have the Edgeworth logo on it.

 

[NintendoRev]

Whee, my first pick-up post! XD
My new HDTV for my room, as family members have hijacked my larger 32-inch model, which is currently downstairs.

Edit: Woahly overly large picture

 

[outsidah]

Loving this game... so refreshing to play something like this

G1 Stunticon represent!

My girl got me a great new coffee maker!

Triumvir love...

I will make a post of all the pick-ups in February later, too much stuff to sort through right now from my Hong Kong trip.

Today's arrivals:



Last copies of both from Ami-Ami:

 

[MYE]

I haven't, I don't think I ever played the version that came with my A Link to the Past on GBA either. While I don't have enough Gameboy advances for the serious multiplayer, I think I will be happy enough with the single player.

IT HAS SINGLE PLAYER?????
