Sorry for the iphone Pics.

That is awesome. I love Matt Berry!

 

[hank_tree]

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!

No problem. Just checked and Cloak & Dagger is printed in China.

Magneto Testament is very good. One of the best Marvel comics I've read in a long time. Has very little to do with Magneto really (He doesn't use his powers to beat Hitler or anything). More of a Schindler's List type thing. Highly recommended. The art is a little weird at first but I got used to it (It's nothing like the cover).

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

Got it on Play-Asia. It was only like $10 or something. It's cool but a bit too big. It comes with an alternate skin as well.

 

[Rimshot]

So this month has been quite a lot for me. Poor wallet ;_;

[xenix]

Been quite busy the last few months. But these are my purchases for today.

When I saw this, I gotta have it (no matter the price!)

 

[Nicky75X]

First time I've ever played a Siren or Trauma Center game, so far so good, and they were very cheap so couldn't pass them up. Also picked up EA Sports Active as my girlfriend is into the fitness thing at the moment, but I'll also give it a try as it looks pretty good.

Sorry for the big giant picture, first attempt at this thing.

As for uncharted... I'm still adapting to analog aiming

[SlaughterX]

Nintendo DS Card Frame Collection Case - I ordered 8 of these and have 6 full already. They hold 24 games each but they don't snap shut, unfortunately.
(the picture on the right is just to show a full case, none of those games are new)
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!

Rejoice for Super Famicom - A "2-player Hip-Hop Action-RPG". Haven't gotten a chance to try it yet but it looks fun.
Shin Bokura no Taiyo for GBA - AKA: Boktai 3. Never released outside of Japan.
Zenki: Battle Raiden for Super Famicom - 2D action/platformer based on an old manga series
Mario Artist Communication Kit for N64DD
F-Zero X Expansion Kit for N64DD - I don't have a N64DD yet but I'm nabbing every disc I find in the meantime.

1976 Nintendo Duck Hunt Electronic Game - Uses a batter powered "rifle" and a projector. Very cool.

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.

Where did you get the DS game holder from? I've been looking for something that holds a good amount of games...

 

[joeyjoejoeshabadoo]

That shirt is awsome where did you get it from if i may ask?

It's from Threadless.
http://www.threadless.com/product/911/Dead_Sucker

I got mine a few weeks ago after waiting two years for it to be reprinted. So for a free piece of advice if they have your size in stock now and you are interested pick it up now because who knows when it will be reprinted again.

 

[Chorazin]

Saw VNV Nation, Ayria, and War Tapes last night in Philly at the Theater of Living Arts. Picked up a work shirt from VNV Nation!

Have some pics from the show here and some videos here.

Excellent choices. I was considering buying The Last Emperor and The Hidden Fortress yesterday, but if I start collecting Criterion DVDs I'll want them all (well, a lot of them, anyway) and I can't afford that.

 

[Gameboy415]

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

Thanks! I'll be sure to post all my future pick-ups too!

I heard about them on a gaming blog ages ago and got them from a Japanese Webstore (here: http://www.bellemaison.jp/ep/srvlt/...SHNCRTTKKRO_KBN=03&KAT_BTGO=809237_250_2009_A )

It's 2790円 for 2 holders, but they're apparently only available until July 24th....?

 

[HUELEN10]

Today was a cloudy and rainy day. It was kinda sucking too. The burner on my stove blew out, my wallet got lost, and I forgot my umbrella. Then the mailman came...

and I rushed inside.

Now all I have to do is get my PSP and...

Wait a second, I sent in my PSP to Sony for replacement due to its failing optical drive, and I only did it last Friday!

First pick-up post.

Toyota MR2 2.0 16v GTi Twin Cam with targa roof. Buildyear is 1990.

Also bought a new mountainbike since my old one was pretty beat up.

Love it already.

I don't have pics of these yet, but I also recently bought Tales of Vesperia and Street Fighter IV. Got SFIV in a clearance sale for only 25 euros.

My girlfriend would approve - she has a (95 or 96? I forget) MR2 and loves it to bits. I drive a Smart car. Go figure.

When I saw that pic, I thought the conclusion to your story was that the PSP case came with no game, the last in a list of bad things that happened. Glad it didn't P

That girlfriend of yours is a keeper.

Me and my dad were looking for a nice coupe. He had been eyeing a few MR2's from before and after 2000. I managed to persuade him to go for a 90's MR2. It's the better looking one (imo) and it being sportier than its younger brother helped my case too.

 

[Amory]

So I bought Elebits DS from eBay "Brand New" and...

So I went to look back at the auction and no mention of a hole in the UPC, but there's a pic of the back... crap. I honestly didn't see the hole, otherwise I wouldn't have bid on it. I asked for a partial refund of 5USD but the seller doesn't want to, says he will refund me completely if I send it back. Problem is that it was an international transaction, so who knows how much it'll cost me to ship it back to the US. If the seller paid me for the shipping I would gladly do it >_>

Am I screwed for being blind? (why would it have a hole in the bar code anyway?)

It's a promo copy he got for free from the publisher. Most publishers destroy the bar codes on games, CDs, DVDs, etc. when they send them out or sell them internally to employees on the cheap. They punch thru with drills, use a hole-punch on the bar code, or just scratch it out. It's an effort to stomp out people from reselling and making a profit.

It's totally new, just swap out the case if it bothers you so much.

Yeah I don't see the problem. It's the game you should care about.

 

[VGChampion]

If anything, buy some empty DS cases. You can find them out on the Web.

[Allan Holdsworth]

Not really, but I could have got it used for cheaper (about $10, I paid $16). Of course it's mostly my fault for not seeing it, but the seller could have mentioned it in the text, at least.

Ah, ok, didn't know that, thanks for the explanation.

I see they are on sale on the Nintendo Store, but they only ship to USA/Canada. I can use a redirector or whatever they're called, but at that point they wouldn't be so cheap. If you know a place that ships directly worldwide and are the same cases (or same quality) than the ones Nintendo uses, please send me a link.

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

Fucking terrible. I bought eight G.I.Joes today. Toys R Us is running a sale where the movie figures are two for $10 instead of $6.99-7.99 a pop. I'm too retarded to live.

Also bought a game for a console I'm waiting on price drop for. :lol :lol :lol

Storm Shadow looks miffed at Snake Eyes. Is it because he didn't get a pet? I really like the figures btw.

Perry Bible Fellowship Almanack - PBF Comics

I like PBF, but I can't support artists that do this shit. "Hey I just released a book a while ago, and now I'm gonna release a new one! But instead of making it only include strips that weren't in the first book I'll make it have the whole first book and more! Making the money you spent on the first volume a total waste!"
