I was reading that Heroes of Ruin is pretty bad...But I'm still very curious what you think teeny. I'd like to pick it up when it releases stateside.

I wouldnt say it was really bad, just very average and generic. The gameplay is a bit repetetive, the combat doesnt have much depth, the graphics are just about good enough, the art design is pretty uninspired and the music is alright.

The game has a lot of features, though - spotpass functionality, online and local coop (though I understand the framerate takes a dive during online play. So far, Ive only played solo), new weekly and daily quests.

Im having fun with it, though regret picking it up at launch. I cannot honestly recommend picking it up unless your tolerance for mediocrity is high and you really need a loot collecting arpg for the 3ds. If your curious, I would wait a while after launch when the price has dropped and you dont have much else to play.

The mother figures were from a crane style prize machine in japan. You had to try and win them in the arcade or buy them from a toy trading store. There are a ton of them on ebay, but they are getting pretty pricy now.

That sucks. =/ I'd really like to have those standing around on the desk. lol

A bunch of retro games, some of them weren't released in Europe:

48 euros in total, being WarioWare the most expensive one (20).
Nice hoard. My Twisted isn't boxed, but my Tengoku is. :)
Trying to find a decently priced copy of Tilt and Tumble as we speak. Did you just ebay it?

No, I've just been lucky with the GB games, I found a guy selling them in a local forum so I didn't have to use eBay, in which I still haven't bought anything. Unfortunately, Kirby Tilt N'Tumble was supposed to come with the manual but it didn't, apparently the seller forgot to include it and is going to send it too.

Paid a total of £12.26 for the three seasons of Avatar. Amazon dropped the price on them all at the same time, luckily I had them all on a price watch and bought them immediately.

Also bought Josh Osho's album as you might be able to make out in the background of the first picture.

I picked this up with Ocarina of Time!. I didn't want to wait for the 3DS XL :(

I wanted to wait for a XL but since nothing was mentioned at E3 i went and picked up the purple 3DS the day after the 3ds conference.

I have to admit when i first bought the purple 3DS i thought it was going to look too purple (if that makes sense) but when i opened it, it looked fucking gorgeous. I regretted buying it for a few days after the XL was announced but realized that XL is not practical to take anywhere unless it's on vacation so that's how i am justifying owning both XL and this one lol.

grats on the 3DS, i friggin love mine.

I was in the same boat as you. The shade is freakin' awesome. I like how the purple fades into a darker shade near the cameras on the top. I thought it would be a candy colored bright purple. I never owned a DS before and one after of having the 3DS I can't put it down. I needed one for a flight to keep me busy; the XL just seems too big in those cramped seats lol that big screen though looks tempting.
 
Not the DSi XL, just the game. Heard a lot about Contact through the years but have never set eyes on a copy before today. And it was cheap as hell too. About $4.50. Had to scoop it up.

crazy,I just got Contact a few days ago because I heard some good things from gaf as well. Only copy I had ever seen in the wild, I ended up paying $12.

Only played it for 5 mins, but I really liked it. The style is very cool. If only I didn't have all this work to do.

It destroys hope of ever having Lufia ever again. It's some god awful action RPG. Well maybe it's a recent action RPG, but it's not Lufia!!

Welp, nvm then. Was gonna pick this up in August with the rest of my DS haul when the 3DS XL comes out but now I won't. Ugh, why do devs do this?

Been a while since I bought some print media & since I'm sick at the moment I thought why not.

Who is the silver figure in the front? These kinds of pictures bring me back <3

Also, did the SIII just come out? Couple people have posted their pickups in this thread!

It's the MK1 Iron Man.

And yeah, just posted mine above, came out start of the month.

Pulstar on VC. One more of the 150 reasons I love VC:

And connected it trough the upscaler with simple component and no tweaks and the image just blows me away:
