I received Nba2k14 for xbox one as Christmas gift but after hearing here in Gaf that the 2k servers were awful. I decided to return it and get store credit at walmart and since they had the black 3ds on sale for $149.99 I decided to pull the trigger I end up paying $94 for a brand new 3dsxl. I also pick Zelda up even tought i haven't play zelda since I was a kid Im looking forward to.

Dat PCE Duo...dayum. Lords of Thunder, that's taste you got there! :D

Well, I'm done with the cheap sound from my TV. As a first pick-up of the year I wanted to upgrade it a bit.

Switch from what? i am confused.


Nice picture .
Wanted to switch my Pioneer 5020fd for a new Sony 4k was about to pull the trigger last week but the lack of content at the moment and the fact that it would primary be for gaming. But in the store I found the pictures jaw dropping btw
But for 720p upscaled to 1080p content ( because of your pic) I think I made a good decision it still look good on my old Kuro.

It is, well, there is better out there, that's for sure.

I don't need a 300W+ sound system, I live in a condo and my goal ain't to piss my neighbors. I just want better sound quality compared to the shitty stock TV speakers I had. It's installed since a bit and it does a wonderful job and it only cost 150$ since it's on sale.

No regrets. :)

EDIT: Trying Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Xenoblade to put it to the real test. :D

Keep in mind that is an iphone pic and in no way should you go from that off screen pic, I took a quick pic and it looks much much better.

Cropped iphone pic.

Kuro is a great TV.


Thanks

LOL! Best resolution ever
actually not a bad idea either.....off to target i go
 
My PC Engine Duo R from doujindance just arrived from Japan!

Time to play some Bomberman 93, Lords of Thunder, and Blazing Lazers!!! Going to do some videos of the games I have on the youtube page: http://youtube.com/backinmyplay

Let's do this!!!

Ugh. I want a Duo R so hard.

Last time I saw Doujindance selling one it was disgusting and yellow unfortunately. That said I may just buy a good condition one and mod it myself, it's fairly simple.

Would look amaze next to my HST-3210 Saturn too, and maybe an FM Towns Marty in future.

Why? Run that Kuro into the ground. Great tv.

Got a couple of cute small 14" PVMs. I've been trying to decide what to put on them. Finally decided on doing a side-by-side RGB-Fami and RGB-Super Fami for a classic Nintendo setup.

Updated the OP! We now have double headers. Reprising his role from last year is MRORANGE with his rendition of the pick up post header...

Ah whoops!!! didn't know you had another header as well. No hard feelings if you want to get rid of mine.


This is what I picked up that should have come last month ):

So I walk into a Value Village today and am confronted with tons of cheap copies of Nintendo Power. I actually have most of the first 10 years of the magazine, but some of these issues I didn't have and some others were in better condition than my old ones. Most of these packages had at least 2 issues in them, some 3.

Is there a collectible market for these yet? I'm pretty sure I have a good 12-13 years worth of these and was only missing the second issue (I think it was Castlevania?).

Also, it is insane that as soon as I saw those covers I got extremely nostalgic. I used to lose sleep the few days before the new issue would arrive as a kid.

I haven't bought anything worth taking a picture this month, so here are some stuff from 2013. This was a really expensive year...

Perfection

Replaced my almost ten year old phone

Started my MSG: The Origin collection

Actually spent some money on myself. Bought new suits and other apparel.

Bought a new console and lots of games, mostly for the PSVita.

This month I only bought a replacement fan for my fat PS3 60GB. I need my GT6 fix, and that thing is overheating with the game lol

My new year's resolution is I'll start to invest more in my curriculum. You can never learn enough.

So I've been a PS3 owner for the most part of this gen and I bought a PS4 day one, but by now you can already tell that most stores in my country (Spain, which is a country dominated by Sony) want to get rid of Xbox 360 stock as soon as possible, so I've decided to Jump in really, really late to play the exclusives. Picked a 250GB Slim E with Halo 4 and Tomb Raider for 160€, and a few games.

Thankfully I haven't played either RDR or Bayonetta on PS3 waiting for this very moment.
