[Forsete]

Sold my A-series and got the new X-series 16GB.

First time I'm using noise-cancelling headphones, works very well. OLED <3

I know I technically already posted it, but some whore shots because I can:

Didn't think you still found Nes games in this condition. Shame the Gamestation price sticker left a ring on the front of the box

360 controller was going cheap and I needed another replacement. God, the build quality on those things is terrible.

You're serious? What hell...? I find it hard to believe that you are civil with your controllers than, because they are actually built with very durable plastic, and can take quite a beating. Even my body, who is very messy with food and plays while eating all the time, his controllers are still kicking it strong. I think he's even drop one in one of his big mugs, and it's still kicking (although a bit sticky, I try not to touch 'em).

The only time I've seen one break is with my other friend who's got a bad temper, and he threw it through his apartment wall. Not joking, there was hole. I'll try finding the picture of it.

Every time someone gets a D40, I post this pic I took on the first day I owned one:

LOVE THIS CAMERA!

How many times have we told you to stop sprinkling Parmesan cheese on bees.

I bought a new one because the sticks wore out and got loose on my main pad, but I've never had a 360 controller that there wasn't something not quite right with it, even straight out of the plastic. My first one, the left bumper was way too low compared to the right. Another, the right trigger scraped the side of the case ever so slightly, but incredibly annoyingly. And this new one the A button is way spongier than the others. There's just no consistency in the manufacturing. It isn't even an issue of how well I treat them.

 

[hypostatic]

Pure class. Have a nice little Tod's collection going myself.

Haha thanks... I'm a big fan of drivers and loafers, but this was my first pair of Tod's.

 

[hank_tree]

Sorry for the iphone Pics.

Signed photo of Matt Berry from The IT Crowd (won in a competition).

I am going to Japan in a few weeks and thought I should try and know at least a few phrases before I go over.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days + DSi. (European DSi charger works on Japanese DSi in case anyone is curious).

Persona 3 Special Edition

Gyakuten Kenji Special Edition

Ipod Case

Some Books

 

[Jet Grind Radio!]

*stuff*

I want so much of the stuff you have here. Especially that DSi.

 

[hank_tree]

I was really torn between getting that DSi or the Gyakuten Kenji one as they both came out around the same time and I couldn't justify buying two. I'm really happy with it. My regular DSi is getting no use now but I'm keeping it for DSiWare, just in case.

I prefer black to white, when it comes to electronics. So I would have gone with the KH one. Although I prefer the design on the GK one.

[womfalcs3]

Just one purchase this month.

 

[red shoe paul]

I want your Hudson counter! Where and how did you get that? :O

 

[HUELEN10]

AUUUUUUUUUGH, STILL NO PROJECT DIVA IN THE MAIL!
I did get Metroid Prime and Megaman Anniversary Collection for 5 USD each though! Still, no Project DIVA...

Play-Asia, deliver the goods dammit!

 

[Kagari]

Play-Asia, deliver the goods dammit!

If you chose the cheapest shipping it usually takes 2+ weeks to arrive.

 

[VGChampion]

If you chose the cheapest shipping it usually takes 2+ weeks to arrive.

Yeah, hopefully you didn't. I'll never do that again. Took about 3 weeks for my Hakuna Matata and Aquanauts Holiday to arrive using the cheapest shipping.

[Shiv47]

Freaking great man! welcome to the club! Any other pins? Where did you pick it up from? Love to Elevator playfield part

This is my first pin of my own, which I got from a local amusement specialty place. Would love to add a Spider-Man at some point, but that's a whole other price range.

What is it with that game anyway? Not your problems I mean the game in general

 

[barcafc]

[Ledsen]

From what I understand, it's a rhythm music game featuring a digital celebrity singing with a computer-generated voice. The japanese love this shit, it's all over Tokyo. My friend bought it, haven't seen it yet though.

 

[Proc]

I wonder what those verbatims are going to be used for ... ... . . . ; )


The majority of this pickup page is making me super fucking jealous lol. Some incredible post of awesome loots.

 

[CounterSeal]

Hey people, first time posting in one of these pick-up threads... These are just a few of the things I've picked up within the last two months or so.

Rock Band 2 Fender Strat Guitar with a used copy of RB2:

QoS BD, FF7:AC BD, A Metal Gear Solid Art Book, and a custom drawing of Dante by a spectacular artist I met at Fanime in May. Please excuse the glare

Star Trek cups from BK, Tokyo Marui USP airsoft pistol, and The Art of War by Sun Tzu.

Just picked this up a few days ago at Hot Topic while at the mall.

This is a bit random, but I had to post it because of my newfound love for Jelly Beans. I took some girl on a date and we went through the tour at the Jelly Belly factory in Fairfield, CA and bought a bunch of candy, more than half of which is now gone =(

 

[HUELEN10]

Well, it is special in many respects, and is a sheer must for all of Miku's fans. This is a music game, with dash of Vocaloid fan-service on the side. You can even play along with your own songs!

Oh man, I absolutely LOVE the Jelly Bean Factory. I've been there numerous times, and I hate leaving because it smells so good. Also, you should have tried to find RB2 at a Target near you, I saw a crap ton of copies for $10 the other day.

 

[Gameboy415]

*edit* Sorry, PC went nuts. Please see next post!

Dragon Quest XI DSi Slime Case - Looks AWESOME on my Blue US DSi. I get plenty of jealous stares on the train out here in Osaka!

And last, but certainly not least, here's something I picked up at the tail-end of June that I think everyone will like.......a GIANT MR. SATURN PLUSH!

It's simply ENORMOUS (check out my DSi for comparison) and it came in an awesome 8-bit style Escargot Express box.

 

[A Dog Chasing Cars]

This is it so far this month. Still waiting on The Matrix though. (Sorry for glares and general shittyness.)

 

[Freyjadour]

Very nice pick ups! Even better now that ADWD has a moderately safe release of February 2010. Rothfuss is good stuff as well, but he has a way to go as a writer. His style of writing freely worries me that he'll back himself into corners that big picture writers like GRRM generally handle much better. Despite that, I thoroughly enjoyed his first venture and am looking forward to the next.

 

[memecomplex]

Sorry for the iphone Pics.

Some Books

Hey hank_tree, curious to hear what you think of the Magneto HC. Any good? I've got Spider-man Noir and it was very average.

Also do you mind checking where the Cloak & Dagger Premiere Edition is printed in? China or USA?

Thanks!

 

[Tonza]

First time posting some pick-ups.

BlazBlue cost me alot in the end because of those sticks...

I did have gotten Prototype too this month.

And on the way are Street Fighter IV and a PS2 for some TotA goodness.

You know

Hint "Chipped 360"

 

[Dwight Schrute]

A few things to have a good summer :
(Sorry for the sh*ty pictures, took them with my phone)

(Finished it yesterday... can't wait for the next one !)

and this :

(Now I've no more money)


PS : Don't blame me yet, I'm looking for an avatar.

 

[painey]

You know

Hint "Chipped 360"

oooh, you're a smart one.

 

[3roam]

Wow some of you guys must be rich...

Well still waiting for my DS games to arrive from Play-asia...
But I got my new DSi which I will post pics of when I get the games

 

[tHa_vIlLaMaN]

Stunning, certainly a conversation starter!

I've owned one watch in my (somewhat short) life and I just can't see the functionality of owning one in a time where just about every electronic device has a clock.

With that said, if I were rich and wore fancy suits, I'd buy a watch purely for aesthetics. Still, your watch is ridiculous, how much?

It was $195 at Macy's.

You're right, I was using my phone as my replacement, but my hands just looked and felt a too bare without one.

 

[DirtRiver]

World of Goo - 7 euros from Impulse

Also bought Pure but I am way too lazy right know to take a picture of it.

[Fireflu]

O hell yes!, ordered this a while back, easily my favorite manga, sooooo good

Just pre-ordered Gogo monster too :3

Also may i ask what camera you use to achieve this amazing depth of field, thanks!

 

[RoryDropkick]

I cant use the picture because it's from the ebay auction, I will take one soon, but in the biggest surprise ever, I'm finally getting an AV Famicom with 12 games.

It was an ebay auction from last week, decent price.. I got sniped and outbid badly.. only to find out the one sniping and outbidding was my g/f, it's my early birthday present

 

[HUELEN10]

I really like the cut of your jib Gameboy415, you have superb taste.
