[The Take Out Bandit]

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

Heh heh, that's the way it's always been and kind of gives me hope Timber will be in the movie at least briefly.

Figures are nice; but some of the designs limit the range of motion for the characters. Kind of sucks since uber pose-ability was the big draw of G.I.Joes. :\

Stupidly hyped for the movie. :X

 

[NathanMcMahon]

Love the starscream

 

[NathanMcMahon]

Got these for $3 bucks each at a thrift store!!!! Score on the Mega Man 7. Also got SNES Chrono Trigger off of ebay. I'll post once it gets here.

EVO2009 Weekend pickups...

Got a bunch of the leftover TEKKEN 6 posters that Namco Bandai Games was giving out for the EVO2009 tournament.

TEKKEN 6 Tattoo sleeves... neat lil' promo item. They had a Devil Jin and Raven tattoo. They look like this when applied... (lol)

Older EVO2007 and 2008 DVD sets that they gave out to attendees. And...

A few boxes more of them so I can give out at this week's Comic-Con event that I'm running! More info here.

Street Fighter IV pin set from my friend HeartNana which he got at the Osaka Game Show last year.

And the month wouldn't be complete without...

Another new arcade stick. This time a Ver. 2/US version of the Hori Real Arcade PRO EX.

 

[Upsidedown Fuji]

During my weekly used game store search I came across 3 gems that only set me back 1500 yen total. My Saturn collection grows.

 

[toastyToast]

The Madcatz TE is old but I recently had it dual modded with Cthulhu and Imp boards. Flicking the switch to right stick puts it in PS3 mode. Also Blazblue Asian Version.

Nice pickups Markman. Is it true what they're saying about EVO '09 not getting a DVD release true? I need a hard copy of that final set. It was so intense.

 

[fernoca]

As I posted in the GB micro <3 thread..

Woohoo!!
DSi quality pics..

..Avatar is better than I thought..reminds me of Zelda. ..also got Riviera since it was just $5 and looks quite pretty.
Still have a plastic over it, waiting for a softcase I ordered.

..some of the games in the background too, but no pics handy..yet.

 

[Freyjadour]

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.

Hey, at least that's all that's wrong. I just got my "Like New" copy of Suikoden IV from eBay whose case seems to have lost a battle with a dog, disc with a tar monster, and then for some awful reason the disc was used to moonwalk across the tile floor. Sometimes I really wonder if they even know what they're sending.

That is correct. It'll all be on IGN Insider.

 

[Recon]

Eh, that kinda sucks. Im sure their will be "other" places to acquire this.

 

[mr_toa]

pickups for vacation; long drives ahead, gotta keep the missus and kids occupied.
(Killzone is mine though )

 

[MrBeggar]

I found this useful for those times when you have unexpected "female guests". lol

 

[Jet Grind Radio!]

Wow. That's pretty awesome. I'd love something like that for my wires and controllers. Don't really have a damn place to put them.

 

[Abubakr]

Nice purchase MrBeggar. Also, you sure have a lot of games.

 

[odhiex]

i really like this thread, full of inspirations...thanx GAF. a newcomer

 

[DeVeAn]

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!

Is this the new Space channel 5?

Man you have horrible luck with electronics. Hope you get to play soon. Good luck.

Well, enjoy when you get your PSP back!

Where does a person acquire such a treasure chest?

 

[.hacked]

where did you get this?

 

[eXistor]

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.

!

Don't these go for $200+? You don't really have space for it at your home do you? I'm willing to take it off your hands for free!

 

[Bull]

My PC only had on-board video which was fine until I tried Tales of Monkey Island. Picked up an older card for it.

Grabbed Monkey Island: Special Edition on XBLA.

 

[Rimshot]

Camera phone etc, but new screen. Haven't calibrated it or anything yet but probably will have to do that.

 

[ResidentDante]

-Large cushion - Got this on ebay, it's filled with three cheap IKEA cushions :lol
-Xbox 360 Wireless Steering Wheel - Loving it with Forza 2 and PGR4.
-Battlestations: Pacific (360) - Never played the original, and fancied a new type of game, so far it's been great. I think the neighbours are getting annoyed of the 18inch cannons firing through my subwoofer though :lol
-Ross Kemp: The Afghanistan Box Set - Amazing documentery in two seasons following the British troops in combat.
-Kasabian: West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum - Best album of the year, so far, in my ears
-Michael Jackson: The Collection - Had lost lots of his records through the years, so bought this box set.
-KOF Figurine - I'll add it to my collection of gaming figures
-Asrock Netop Ion 330 - Multimedia PC, which sports the all new Nvidia Ion graphics/cpu/sound chip, the box is tiny, about the size of a Wii. Been working great on my HDTV so far. Runs games, 1080p video and supports full surround sound.

I already know your next purchase:

Hahaha! Yeah, I'll consider buying one of those, though it's easier just to flip the pillow over.

 

[red shoe paul]

$12.97 shipped, hollaaa.

 

[feel]

Got these Astro A40s so I could have cranked up 5.1 surround sound without bothering my family and neighbors. Games and Blu-rays sound truly amazing in these.

 

[Anso]

Some new stuff arrived by mail today, woo! I'm a huge Armored Core fan and with this I'm just one game away from a complete Armored Core PAL collection. Mana Khemia is just hot in general.

There is...on the top...a large hole with a zipper on, where i put the smaller cushions into it :lol

[Flek]

Finished my first custom stick .. full sanwa mod and custom art this baby is a 1 piece le now <3 and gosh i love it

 

[ngower]

Wanted to pick up some of the Blu Rays but all they had in stock were "El Norte", "The Man Who Fell To Earth" and "For All Mankind", none of which really grabbed me. I wanted Seven Samurai but it seemed some people had already been through their stock as most of what was worth grabbing was gone. Was tempted to get Fear and Loathing, but as silly as this sounds, I'd rather read the book first. Hopefully this sale does well and they go for one again sometime in the future.

 

[aphoushole]

I hope you know what you're getting yourself into.

W'sup.

Is this sale going on for all Barnes & Nobles?

 

[Arucardo]

Couldn't resist getting it after seeing the cover art in a topic here a few days ago :lol also the fact that I paid 12 euros for it helped. It's not region locked and everything is in english so it's all good.

are you guy who saw the game for 6 months at his local game shop (gamstop?). if yes, i remeber your post at the cover art thread :lol nice purchase indeed!

That's awesome:lol He's skinnier in Japan

 

[Monroeski]

Heh heh, that's the way it's always been and kind of gives me hope Timber will be in the movie at least briefly.

Figures are nice; but some of the designs limit the range of motion for the characters. Kind of sucks since uber pose-ability was the big draw of G.I.Joes. :\

Stupidly hyped for the movie. :X

I would say that having any hype whatsoever for that stinker is pretty stupid.

 

[ngower]

I hope you know what you're getting yourself into.

:lol I'm very much aware (and slightly scared) of what to expect.

Is this sale going on for all Barnes & Nobles?

I'd imagine so. An e-mail was sent to me and the website has the sale as well. I've not heard of any stores not doing it. If you're unsure, call your local store or just buy them online.
