Samsung HDMI Ports quit working, I have it warrantied and it will be fixed Monday, but it's the third Samsung TV I've had something go wrong with. Tired of their products breaking on me, so I decided to go with LG this time. The TV has an amazing picture, the only thing I am not used to is the Edge lit lighting, but I will adjust in time.
Came with 12 pairs of 3D Glasses, plus I love that it's Cinema 3D so I can keep those I get at the theater, although I doubt I'd use the 12 I have anyways, I'm new to Orlando so I don't know that many people yet!
Paid a visit to IKEA for some new Living room stuff, love what we got so far, and it's simple to put together (I did it, so it has to be simple)
and finally, my BluRay pickups for the last couple of weeks, been sort of inactive in the hunt with the move happening!

Neon green, extremely blinding. Picture does not do it justice.
Got two more TDKR posters coming in, will post those, as well.
I'm missing some iPad games, but whatever.
I see BIT.TRIP COMPLETE
MY MAN! *high five*
Only that one version of Dodonpachi with the Ketsuipatchi mode is what I feel I'm really missing right now. Otherwise it's just catching up on the smaller titles, which surprisingly go for more money than the Cave games at times!
And, yeah. I,know it must look very weird for the majority of people on the board that dont visit the shooter threads, but I'm thinking of getting all the LE's of Cave games to accompany the regular releases.
I do make a point of trying to get all of them brand new and sealed, so I know I'm supporting the company.
Once they arrive though, they don't stay sealed for long.

Not weird at all! I've considered similarly but eventually just went for all the LEs of everything, buying as they came out...even things like Strike Witches. True, Cave prices are much, much cheaper now. Prices have dropped dramatically. I have considered getting all the platinums, though. And next week I'm definitely getting the Wonder Price rerelease of Eschatos...simply because it has the cute little obscure Wonderwitch logo on it. You should go for the LE of Instant Brain, just for shits and giggles.
Have never done the math, but a full J-360 system with all shooters, including XBLA can be had for about 2K, I estimate. One of the better things to be had this generation.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
New mouse, finally retired my MX518.
I went to a 518 to a G500, and it was such a massive improvement. That thing really grows on you.
Einhänder. Very nice!

Nice poster. Mind sharing where you purchased it?
Edit: Never mind. Found out that it was a comic con special =/ Oh well. Nice pickup in any case.

Very nice. I've been hunting for an affordable US Einhander for awhile now.

Welcome to Orlando! If you need any info on local stuff, let me know. I'm on the east side of town near UCF. Nice pickups.
Thanks neighbor! I am right behind Millenia mall. Loving the area so far minus the traffic. But thanks for the generosity!

Very cool!
That's pretty awesome.
I figure I'll put this here, in case more people want to know. This is my reply from just answering someone's PM inquiring about the GBA:
Well, it's not easy to buy. I bought them from chinese website (think: chinese version of ebay) called taobao.
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=14045909056 <-- cable
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=16536976988 <--screen
What I did was, I ordered through a secondary website called zarmark.com. They're based in China as well, but they have english speaking agents that help you order (you just supply them with item numbers and pay them).
The mod itself? Not too difficult. Requires a little modification to the inside of the faceplate... you have to shave some plastic off with a dremel or hobby knife, and solder one point (for powering the screen), but not too difficult.

Being new to GAF, here is my recent collection & pick ups over the past bit -> current.
The DS games are recent pickups (past week, Okamiden and The World Ends With You, we're exceptionally tricky to find. Also picked up Zelda: Spirit Tracks today, not pictured)...Adding soon Kingdom Hearts 3D and 3DSXL (blue), end July/Aug. So excited!

I drew Casca from an anime called Berserk and got it signed by the voice actor Yuko Miyamura (more famous for Asuka in Neon Genesis Evangelion)
That is HELLA cool!

Whede did you get that Vita cart holder? It looks very nice :O
I just got back from an excellent week in San Francisco. I bought all kinds of stuff (mainly from Japan Town), but the best loot I got was this tattoo that I have been wanting very much for awhile now!
It's on my inner arm a bit below my wrist. It's a tribute both to my love for Japan and my favorite musical artist, Darren Hayes. My favorite album by him has an origami crane on the cover, and it's also featured in this music video.

Hey guys. This was one of my most watched threads when I was unapproved, so I thought it'd be fitting if my first post was in this thread. Anywho, got this a few days ago because I wanted to try out the Layton games:
I know that's not technically the first game, but I figure it's just as good as starting with the first one.

Wow!!!My best pickup of the month, a new internet connection. Fibre finally available. Good riddance to BT!
Before and after, with the option to upgrade to 1000Mb.
Yeah, I remember you posting in here a few months ago with the brochure to that area. Nice!

LOL I'll happily take your "before" :'(
Mines about 300kb/s in reality... even though the speedtest says 2.4mb/s
Handheld porn. Good stuff. Thinking of upgrading to bigger game cases myself since the official Vita and 3ds cases are kind of small.

Only pickup that really mattered this month:
As a NeoGeo fan, I was very pleased when I realized that her initials were AES. I'll have to work on an MVS naming scheme for the next one.
