Is that the MGS4 art book that was just released?
Valkyr Junkie said:
Yeah. It's pretty good. It has some nice concept art for Raiden and his evolution to what he was in MGS4. Sunny has some cool concept art as well and they have a few unused characters like "Snake-Man".
The phone strap is really old but I got it for free when I bought another Ga-Ko alarm clock. They usually go for about $15-$20 on ebay/Yahoo Japan.

The clock can be found on ebay and/or Yahoo Japan. It's usually around $60US. I'm picking up another 3 for gifting purposes from a friend in Japan
I like these Magnet UMD cases better then the old ones. It was hard to get games in and out of the old ones(especially the ones with 4 clippy things, the three's wern't so bad).
Be Carefull stacking them though as they stick together. I went to pick up one and the other one stuck to it then fell and the 8 UMD's inside went flying:lol
I'm also on a Klonoa binge since I beat and loved Moonlight Museam.

Honestly I haven't seen it on BRD, but the movie looks crappy. That's how it's supposed to look.HUELEN10 said:
That's how it looked in theaters, that's it looks on DVD and that's how it looks on HD On Demand.
It's an awesome fucking movie and I have a hard time believing anyone is going to be disappointed because the transfer isn't as good as Ratatouille.
Also, that quote a few posts up says it's "a meager improvement over the DVD. And extremely similar to the upscaled DVD."
Just wanted to point this out for further ridicule.Truespeed said:
Haven't posted in a long while so some of these are from December.
I spent a lot less on Steam sales this Christmas than the previous one. It helped that I already owned most of the games they had the best sales on.
I started buying games from GoG.com, some I already own but I wanted them DRM-free.
My first plastic instrument game. An incredible experience. Played through the career twice so far, will do so again.
Two new USB mics for Beatles RB. Oh, the games? They'll hopefully generate a few bucks sealed on eBay.
Today's purchase. I only paid $AU30 with Op Flashpoint 2 traded in. Really didn't think I'd ever buy this game but reviews and the demo sold me.

How is it?? Any problems with the screen or compatibility issues??
I thought about buying one over the holidays, but I'm sure there will be more 3rd-party SNES portables in the future so I can wait. Also, I'm waiting to see if Messiah releases something like a Generation NEX for SNES games.
Since I got back in Japan, I've been killing spare time between lessons by going to used book stores...not the best idea when you're trying to save money. :lol
Everything was super-cheap though.
I'm going to do my best not to buy ANYTHING else until April when I (HOPEFULLY) start my new job(s) and start raking in big bucks again. I have one (2nd) interview this Saturday and another next Tuesday (at a different school). Assuming I get both jobs, I'll be making DOUBLE what I make now!
Anyway, here are my January pick-ups:
GAMES:
オーバキューン (Oh! Bakyuun) for JP PS1 - Guncon game I'd never seen before. 250円
Bomberman Land for JP PS1 - Japan-only, and looks fun. 300円
SEGA ゲームのかんづめＶＯＬ．１ (SEGA Games Can Vol. 1) for JP SCD - I stupidly mistook this for a Saturn game. Oops. Only 100円 though.
Floating Runner for JP PS1 - Looks fun, 100円.
グーグートロプス (GuuGuuTrops?) for JP PS1 - Caveman game from Enix I'd never seen/heard of before. Only 100円.
アナザーマインド (Another Mind) for JP PS1 - Made by Squaresoft. 100円 too.
ポコニャン! (Poko Nyan!) for JP GB - Loved the Super Famicom game and found this one for 189円.
GUIDES:
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Guide - 300円 @ my local Book-Off
Fossil Fighters Guide - 300円, but I was pissed to see some of the pages near the back had been ripped out and TAPED back in. It was sealed in a plastic bag so I didn't notice until I opened it at home.
Parappa The Rapper Guide - 210円. Lots of awesome artwork and a catalog of Parappa merchandise!
Advance Wars 1 & 2 Guide - 105円
Kirby 64 Guide - 105円
Banjo-Kazooie Guide - 105円. I recently started playing it again on 360 so this will be a big help!

Continued from post 689:
The Prodigy - Invaders Must Die (Special Edition):
2 CDs a DVD and a booklet. My favourite band, EVER.
2.5/3.5 sata docking station
Asus G51Vx and Razor mouse. It also came with these wii-like nunchuck controllers (not shown):
New Shelf (Ikea):
Gift from San Diego ComicCon - When my friend came up to visit, he brought it up for me:
The same friend gave me his DVD collection. These pics are only half of them:
W00t Shirts:
Windows 7 Upgrade for my Dad's new HP. I also got one for my new Asus (not shown):
From Japan
Kanji books for kindegarden and grade 1
Birthday gift - Micky Mouse Transformer!:
My new passport and my JR Rail/Shinkansen pass:
My new Seiko Limited edition watch. Only 300 made.
My 30th year was one of the best years of my life. Even though I broke up with a wonderful girlfriend, there were so many amazing things that happened that made it THAT good. I thought I would commemorate my 30 years with something special. Besides my laptop/hdtv/car/tuition, this is the most expensive thing I've ever bought.

I donated the cash(for one month) I would use for games/DVDs-buying to the Haiti earthquake victims.
That is one insanely good-looking watch. Too bad I won't ever be able to afford something of that kind.AlfaTrion said:
Nice DVD collection too, at first glance I thought that someone had nicked my movies somehow, but it seems that those are not PAL version. Pumping Iron's cover is a dead giveaway.

L+R buttons are shitty. Its a little thick but otherwise seems fine. I havn't had much time to fool play around with it yet. I only messed around with Stunt Race FX for like 10 minutes.
I dont know what games have compatability issues with the clone systems so I dont know what the compatability is like. Give me a list of games you want tested and I'll try it if I own them.
