Support NeoGAF

[sixteen-bit]

Finally got a Neo Geo CD along with Metal Slug 2, Real Bout Special and Samurai Shodown. Been mulling over getting an AES or CD and fact is the games I want cost 1K or more for the cartridges so CD it was. Metal Slug 1 is still in the mail from Australia and will hopefully get here soon. It's just too bad MS3 and MSX were'nt also released on the system, then I would truly feel complete. MS4 - 6 were ok but as they were developed by a different team you can definitely tell the difference in level design and the overall flow of the game. Not to mention the move to pre-rendered background sprites.

NGCD top loader is such a nice looking system.

I am a much less patient person than you, so my favorites are titles like Mutation Nation, Last Resort, or Windjammers, which each have minimal loading, lol.

Well here is my second batch of game related goodies for this month:

:O
I just bought those together a couple of days ago!
I kept hearing so many good things about the both of them. They'd been on my shopping list for a long while but I finally got around to it.

Great work on duplicating the placement and angle almost perfectly.

That's hilarious, and pretty eerie too! Great matching picture!

Finally got hold of a intelligent systems nitro capture unit for big screen DS & GBA gaming fun. Looking forward to playing my collection on my 51" tv,

Kind of a mixed haul so far this month:

Easy enjoyable plats here

Only Season 1 has a plat, Season 2 doesn't.

Hm. What does it take to become a VIP? I am not a huge LEGO nut but a huge F40 fan. I must acquire, somehow.

Edit: I just saw the sign up link. Signing up. Hopefully I can get it soon!

It looks like a cross between a N64 and a Saturn. Cool machine.

 

[Andrew J.]

Prime Day haul!

Arkham Knights PS4 bundle.

Witcher III came with the bundle. The rest is an assortment of PS4 games that were cheap on Amazon.

Unrelated: Rosalina amiibo was available online from Target for a while last week.

How's that Godzilla game? Seeing a lot of gaffers posting that one.

It really is nice to look at, I didn't expect it to be so big though. Next to an original Xbox it has a little more depth, is about as tall and is only shorter width wise minimally. I love it though, has a nice weight to it and gives it a good presence. You reminded me I was going to check out Last Resort as well, played it on an MVS a few eeks ago at an arcade and want to experience it in better quality as the CRT on that cabinet was very aged.

I see you took part in Jerky Day 2015.

That's it for this month.

I'm not into Lego or cars but this looks pretty cool. My cars always looked something like this:

 

[Celcius]

That's it for this month.

That looks awesome! At first I wanted one but then I saw 1158 pieces and $100...then I was like "nope".
Looks really cool though

 

[TheCochese]

When you look at the ten cents per piece average, it's a bit better value than the Mini.

It is also apparently now sold out until general release.

 

[Toy Soldier]

I love that alarm clock! Does a specific song play or anything like that?

Thanks! Sadly, no special song or tone - just a standard ol' alarm beep.

I did kinda assume the alarm would be something Ranma-related when I realized the "bells" up top are simply there for looks, but I wasn't too bummed. It still looks great.

 

[electristan]

Birthday yesterday

My fiance got something amazing from one of my favorite films.

The Map from, can you guess?

Spoiler

Time Bandits

printed on good canvas so I can run around with it

Also came with a Apple Pie for breakfast, and a really nice Art/movie note book about Del Toro's movies.


What a glorious day!

The Amazon Prime Sale was actually decent to me, got the 48inch Sony Bravia television with £200 off. Also picked up two more Studio Ghibli blu-rays.

Oh and I also got this beauty of a replica

How's that Godzilla game? Seeing a lot of gaffers posting that one.

If you are a fan of the Japanese Toho movies, the game is a treat. It doesn't have AAA production values, but the monsters are perfectly modeled, the audio is spot on and stomping through environments, smashing buildings and fighting other kaiju is a blast.

I've never been a Godzilla fan, just thought the game looked great (and it has certainly piqued my interest in the films), but I agree that it's just plain ol' fun. It's tough, there's a ton of content, and the gameplay keeps your heart pumping. The "tank" controls have been complained about thoroughly, but you're Godzilla - those controls just make you feel like a big lumbering beast; that's a flaw if you're playing as a human, but you're Godzilla, so it makes it feel right.

I already own the Sentai DVDs of the first series (as I wanted dual audio).

When my friends and I tried watching the P4Anime in Japanese the first time, we switched immediately into English due to Japanese voices sounding "weird" to us (since the game was dubbed in English).

Once P4GAnime started streaming on CrunchyRoll last year in Japanese, we got used to hearing the Japanese voices.

If I'm honest with myself, I do prefer the English dub really.

Last Resort on the ngxd runs smoothly too save for some late level lag which is pretty severe but either than that great, terrifyingly hard game

:O

I kept hearing so many good things about the both of them. They'd been on my shopping list for a long while but I finally got around to it.

Alright, I'm convinced. I've just ordered them together as well. Let's see how much we can skew the Amazon recommendation system...

 

[Westraid]

Sorry for crappy tablet pic:

Love all the Radiant Historia & Ghost Trick combo purchases. Over four years ago, I did the same thing.
You won't regret it, both those games are gems. Only issue you'll have: which game featuring the time travelling hero in red will you play first?

 

[AlfaTrion]

Here is my pickup news! (lol)
Again, sorry for my crapstagram pics.

My cousin donated her N64 and some games along with some NES carts! How awesome is she?

Also my co-worker found some stuff he didn't need anymore including a GBA SP Headphone jack!

A friend gave me his sister's old games since she's gone digital only. The stacks behind are just empty cases.

Not technically a pickup but it made me happy:

Palete Gear Expert Kit! Haven't had a chance to fiddle with this yet but I might set it up but I might no use it until the dev kit is available.

Got the HD version because I can send most of my stuff through an XRGB-mini...

... thanks to these cables I picked up!

Game pick ups from June:

Pickups from my trip back in May that I finally had time to try:

Not pickups but some more stuff I brought over from my dad's house to my new place:

Found my Sol Feace CD when trying to fix my original Sega CD

Now that I have RGB cables for my Saturn, I'll probably play this entire game the best way possible! Note: This game was a gift from one of my best friends way back when this came out. Now how awesome is HE?

 

[Greye]

Astell & Kern AK Junior.

That is a thing of beauty! I looked it up and I can only find the silver version online, whats yours called?

 

[pariah164]

My pick ups so far this month:

And one from June I forgot to post:

This is it for me until Lost Dimension, and then August will be barren; nothing till September for pickups.

 

[ArchAngel]

It's knackening!

 

[FireCloud]

Passed on my old Black PS4 and picked up the Batman LTD edition PS4.

Sexy. Are you going to get a vertical stand for it? It pretty much begs to be displayed standing up like that.

I'm thinking about it. Im waiting to get a new tv unit and will see if it will fit vertically. Does look great in the vertical position.

You should probably just stream it online. Its kinda terrible. I say that as a persona fan and someone who finds Marie tolerable.

I did stream it on CrunchyRoll when it first came out with my friends. For us, since we had beaten the original and Golden, it was nice seeing "New Game+" animated. Was it not really needed? Sure, but we oddly got a kick out of seeing the content from Golden animated.

Since I own the original Sentai release, it was a given that I would also own the Aniplex USA release for Golden as I particularly wanted the soundtracks (versus paying for the Japanese release).
