Those yellow consoles and controllers will look awesome if retrobrite works on it.

 

[FoxhoundNL]

Hey look, it's the special gold collectors edition!

Never seen such severe yellowing. It kinda works though.

I think it's a SSNES.

Spoiler

a Smoker's Super Nintendo Entertainment System

Yep, it's pretty lovely. Cheap too! It's an Ikea FORSÅ lamp.

Thanks a lot. For that price I'm definitely grab a black one.

 

[Parallacs]

Hit up the local flea market today and get super lucky on a bunch of SNES games. 20 tapes for $30, some real great games in there too. A little dirty but nothing that can't be cleaned off.

Geez. This is insane. That is like $250 worth of games. Great finds.

 

[Viola of the Abyss]

Wifes brother stops by with a big box, says "Hey, thought you might want this, was going to throw it all out.."

--Lots of good stuff--

Going to be busy for the next few months till my Ps4 arrives..

In the name of holy goddess Aidios, that is an amazing catch!
There's a PSX too!

 

[Kade]

Early shipment of SMTIV, Microplay B2G1 used game sale stuff and Steam Summer Sale stuff.

Dang that's a gold mine right there. That's awesome. Great find!

3DSXL, Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem
Had the old 3DS, sold it and regretted it. Now I'm back and it's time to destroy some good games!
Also have Mario Kart 7 and Luigi's Mansion 2 on the way =D

Movies!
Maybe posted one or two of these a few weeks ago, really can't remember.

Comptia A+ Training Kit and Manhattan Murder Mystery
Watched my first Woody Allen film a few months ago, which was Annie Hall and I loved it. Going to watch Manhattan Murder Mystery and Manhattan next.
Planning to sit the Comptia A+ exams sometime in the future, so that's why I grabbed the book.

My wallet weeps...

Spoiler

It's taken a bashing too, in the great war of the steam summer sale. Frugality will be the name of the game for a while, I think.

 

[Windam]

So sad about missing out on the Civ V deal

 

[Zeouterlimits]

Oh man, a PSX. I was hyped for years for that thing.

Until it sunk in that it was never leaving Japan, never mind coming to Europe.

 

[Rubius]

An eclectic assortment for sure, but the seasons of Angel were on sale for 10 bucks each, I've had a song from this Oasis cd stuck in my head for the last 24 hours, and I've been meaning to pick up SMG2 for a long ass time.

Be ready to get really sad at the end of the series, it end on a Cliffhanger and you have to pick up the comic for the next season.

 

[The Elite]

I was able to find this in a local game store yesterday.



I died at the second battle already! Lol

I'm sticking to easy. Very easy if they have it.

 

[LostAnkh]

 

[Omegabalmung9]

The store was having a buy 1 get 1 half off so I couldn't resist myself >.<

 

[John Rabbit]

what kind of person amasses that kind of niche-level videogame paraphernalia and then decides to simply throw it away?

 

[Ninja Scooter]

have no idea why my childhood SNES never yellowed at all, but I'm glad.

 

[pahamrick]

A couple pickups from the last few weeks.

Soul Hackers, and I 'upgraded' to an XL because the hinge on my FE 3DS decided it wanted to break just from opening the system. Called Nintendo, and despite simply opening the system caused it they don't consider that to be a manufacturers defect so it's not covered under the warranty. Plus, since I was informed I would not be getting a FE system back I haven't decided if I want to pay for an OG replacement or just keep the system in it's box on a shelf.

Some pics of the damage.

And a comparison shot. I'll miss using the sexy FE system, but I'm thankful the blue XL doesn't look like a fisher price toy in person like it does in the pictures.

Came back from my work place, so I got a couple of stuff I got since last month.

Some video games

Some comics (Damn that Highschool of the dead book is heavy!)

Some movies and Tv Show

Board games

Fuck anybody who put this kind of sticker on paper

Had to use Goo Gone, look nice, but have nails marking all over it now.

And the big Board game of the month : Carcassone Big Box 4

Also bought a Gamecube cord extender for my Hori GBA Player controller.

Sweet. Fellow Framemeister owners

Spoiler

I'm the one who made it.

Really? Thanks for allowing me to plug ALL of my systems on one TV. Pretty cool, I need that decail now.

Hah! I chuckled. I only made the decal.

Good one.

 

[digita1alchemy]

Mostly cheap finds this month.

 

[Swarley]

Some pickups from the last week. Got FFX, Battlefront and Ken Griffey, Jr from the local vintage gaming store. Picked up Prince of Persia: Forgotten Sands off eBay for a few bucks and then finally picked up Resident Evil: Revelations from GameStop.

 

[Skilletor]

My EVO pickups. Some t-shirts, sf hello kitty, an AWESOME poster with some art I'd never seen before, the new mad catz silent stick, and other random bits.

 

[Amagon]

Audio Engine A2

Wow. They're actually valuable? I still have the original Megazord and Dragonzord out in my shed.

 

[deddonpachi]

[Nisa65]

Latest game purchases over the last few weeks.

Trying to complete Spielberg's filmography on blu-ray but frustratingly there's still a few of his films that remain unavailable.

 

[ThePeoplesBureau]

Clockwise, L to R: EOD Volume 2, EDM B2, Supercell feat. Hatsune Miku

Gimme all those Gears!

[CoachKevin]

Two more NES carts. I have never played either of these before, use to always confuse them in the rental store. From what I played of Shatterhand last night it is really cool:

 

[Fallout-NL]

Met the genius Adriano Zumbo last week and had to have some of his amazing Zumbarons.


Got sick of my iPhone 5 read lots of good reports on the HTC One and so far it’s brilliant.

That's good to hear, just ordered the HTC One (over the S4 and iPhone5).

 

[Neifirst]

I remember Shatterhand getting really favorable reviews in EGM back in the day, which was pretty impressive considering it came out after the Genesis and T-16 were already on the market. Never got a chance to play it myself. Get it on the podcast!

 

[Ark]

Came today, ordered a charger too

 

[Kobiekun]

I'm the one who made it.

*high five*

I'm loving it.

 

[Spades]

Been meaning to pick this up in forever.

Can't argue for £6.

Good find - fabulous game, enjoy :-D

A couple of charity shop finds. Canon's first ever production AF. That motor housing is insane and makes me appreciate contemporary lenses. All together about $15:

What a steal! Great pick up. I got mine when I was like 5 so naturally I played with it and lost the Pterodactyl and Mastodon head.

Haha that lens is sexy. Do you use EdMika converters for FD-EOS?

 

[Loakum]

 

[NathanMcMahon]

Haven't used any yet as this is the first FD I've found that remotely interests me. I got a 1.2 once and that wasn't even sexy enough to consider trying to convert or get an adapter for. This one is so ridiculously oddball that I may take the plunge on a quality converter as it would be fun to shoot. The AF is completely self-contained so you can use it as-is (x2 AA batteries are needed). I may just try to free-lense with it for fun.
