Here's what I got in May 2013!

 

[xJavonta]

Picked up P4G for my Vita. Already clocked 11 hours lol

Not pictured: New threads and a new skateboad deck (ATM 4 life)

 

[Blablurn]

Since I was getting annoyed by Motion in Joy I decided to buy a X360 controller for my gaming laptop.

 

[GodfatherX]

have a pretty awesome pick up to post later, have to take some pics of it first. Been awhile since i posted in one of these threads, glad to see they are still going strong.

edit: here is a pick up I have been working on for about 2.5 years. This our 4 bed, 3 bath house. We spent the last month painting every inch of the interior, and replaced the carpet throughout, and installed a new appliances in the kitchen.

those are the only 2 rooms with the painted stripe, they are right next to each other.

 

[Auron_Kale]

Just bought for my iPad:

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

Sword of Sodan (Genesis), Dr. Franken

 

[xJavonta]

Just bought for my iPad:

Broken link for me

 

[Auron_Kale]

Broken link for me

Fixed it.

 

[Seik]

Got this earlier today from Ebay.

My first and probably my best pickup of the month...

And probably the last because of it's god damn price. My wallet is sad, no regrets though.

Worth every penny

 

[Wubby]

Actually got in May...



Like new (maybe even new) for $10



1/72 Apollo 11 Saturn V rocket. This model kit is MASSIVE. Biggest kit in my collection. Will be ove 5' tall when built.

 

[Netto-kun]

Not shown: Some games from Wii U/3DS eShop (Super Metroid, Kirby's Adventure, Oracle of Ages/Seasons).

Bought a Wii U Premium since it had a price drop at the local electronics retailer. Picked NSMBU since none of the shops had Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate.

PC version from the recent Amazon sale. But I need to work on Demon's Souls before this starting on this one.

Failed with putting the screen protectors on gamepad. So I have to order new ones later.

Found these from a bomba bin in another local electronics retailer.

Finally bought volume 21/23/24 and filled the hole in my Slam Dunk collection.

Ni no Kuni from a sale with free shipping. Friend helped me with buying DQV PS2 and Gyakuten Kenji 2 a couple of months ago.

Bought Sora no Kiseki FC & SC HD several months ago. But friend (another one who's living in Japan) didn't have time to send them over until recently. I didn't plan to get Revengeance just yet, but couldn't resist the 2700 yen bomba price from Amazon Japan.

Yeah, playing this and mostly playing this (and a little bit of Apollo Justice).

Zero no Kiseki 2013 calendar & folder. Calendar and Pikmin tote bag fron Club Nintendo Japan.

 

[Blablurn]

okay, one more thing that just arrived

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYEEEEEEEEEEEEERN

 

[Phat Michael]

Cost me WAY too much. Too scared to open them and form Devastator :/

 

[Ban Puncher]

Unleash them from their cardboard prisons and merge for the kill.

Spoiler

Then buy another set to keep sealed.

 

[Roge_NES]

Good stuff.

LOL! i will man. then ill take a snap

More stuff

Got my KAWS art installed. will take more pics of the place once its tidied up a bit better.

 

[OnkelC]

 

[20cent]

Picked up P4G in May. Dunno exactly why, I usually don't like playing RPG, especially J-RPG.

Since then I couldn't really touch any 3DS games...after 65 hours spent playing P4G.

 

[tHa_vIlLaMaN]

Went a bit nuts with the lens purchasing last month.

Got a fast 50mm equivalent for my NEX

Which I used to take a pic of my other lens which I got from the canon refurbished store, on a lucky break. The Canon 70-200mm f2.8 II

Then there's the Carry Speed FS-Pro camera sling that I carry it all with.

I used it to replace my generic one, since I didn't trust it with all this gear.

Oh yea the chair is new (and comfy as hell) too

 

[Shady859]

Always browse rarely post in here but was moving phone pics to PC this morning so thought i'd share a few things I got this past week / last weekend.

Not pictured: 3600 Xbox Live points for $15 from Microsoft store fiasco

BeeBee

A new challenger arrives....

Glock 19 Gen 4 bunch of target stuff as well not that you can find ammo.

New kicks: Nike Sweet Classics

 

[Shady859]

I don't keep up with fighting games but did you make it into a actual game or is this just a screen or something? Very cool either way!

 

[Stuart444]

First time posting in these threads

This came today:

Bought it on ebay, taking time to get used to it though.

 

[Deadly Monk]

Since it was the last day posted there and it's my first time posting in a pick up thread, I'll re-post this. It took me a while to get these each for as cheap as possible. White 360 is the only one missing now.

That's a good looking stick I have the WWE wrasslin' sticks for ps3, 360 because i'm a cheapskate. They definitely raise your game in shmups and fighters once you get used to it.

That one was going to be my second choice of stick due to cheapness XD.

Having trouble doing quarter circle for special moves on the stick so yeah, gonna need some practice (stuff like in SSFIV, Ryus special/ultimate moves and stuff)

 

[deddonpachi]

that 3ds wheel is so comfortable <3

 

[Soulhouf]

 

[Chairhome]

I'm not quite caught up, but I think he's a character in divekick, along with Seth Killian

 

[ExitPlanetDust]

Haha, probably your best pickup for the year.

Did you post your impressions in the Saturn or SHMUP threads yet?

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Yo, lemme stop you:

That is your best pickup of the month.

 

[mr_toa]

Good one!

 

[Litflynt912]

So we just got back from our quick trip to honnolulu.
I have a ton of gaming stuff coming in I bought for the saturn and SFC but I thought I'd share a snippet of the trip. All in all, it was really good. Got to swim with dolphins and eat some amazing food as well as ball out of

^ stayed across the street just because of marukame udon. Not better than in Tokyo, but for a state, best udon outside of Cali

^ tax free so I figured why not. Been wanting one for a while and the staff was very helpful

I'll post gaming pics later this weekend.

 

[jbueno]

Probably the only gaming pickup I get before Shin Megami Tensei IV, Akai Katana Shin Limited Edition.

 

[mr_toa]

Picked up a Nexus 7 and a Microsoft Wedge keyboard.

Pretty sweet combo I if may say so myself

 

[NathanMcMahon]

Which I used to take a pic of my other lens which I got from the canon refurbished store, on a lucky break. The Canon 70-200mm f2.8 II

Shit, son. Nice.

 

[Kurod]

I was holding out for a bundle but folded today with the Toys 'R Us $40 off deal.

 

[javac]

Got this over the last few months but didn't have time to post them but better late then never right?

Evangelion 3.33 Blu-ray with soundtrack and Rei Ayanami mouse pad.

Arrietty Blu-ray

Nausicaä Blu-ray

Whisper of the heart Blu-ray

White Frost Samasung Galaxy S4.

 

[Yes Boss!]

Starting the month off with a bang, yep.

I got that from canon refurb as well, worst part was the sales tax on it
i love it though.

Those straps with quick release buckles make me uneasy, I worry about them breaking and also about dbags who might see it and just release it for kicks

 

[Vexxan]

Joining the 3DS ranks! Got Animal Crossing ordered but until then I might pick up Fire Emblem, everyone says it's great and I enjoyed the demo so will probably get that soon.

 

[tHa_vIlLaMaN]

Shit, son. Nice.

Haha, thanks.

Yea, that sales tax hit me unexpectedly. I saw it and was like 'wtf?!', but I swallowed it anyways since it was still better than retail.

I've never even thought of anyone releasing my straps like that. The day someone does that is the day someone goes to the hospital...

That being said, the Carry Speed has a really good 3-point latch system.

 

[Hecatonchires Custom]

YARD SALE HAUL

Nes games 1$ each
Lunar 2 guide (is it valuable or something?) 10$
Gamecube games 5$ each
Bluerays (not a scratch on them, surprisingly) 2.50$ each

 

[BOTEC]

This was not how I wanted to start off the month of June, but National Console Support has failed me.

I've had these games for years, but they were the Japanese Dreamcast versions, which don't have the English dialog option like most other SNK releases. So I decided to complete my English language KOF set. 2000 is still pretty cool, 2001 is a colossal piece of shit though.

 

[Acidote]

I already had the game for cheap on steam, but the artbook and box are nice.

 

[TheGamer]

I picked up a few of these items in May, but never had a chance to post them.

I finally got the console I always wanted when I was a kid. It's a good start to my Gamecube collection.


I also got some reading material and guides:


Also, some of my favorite movies on Blu-ray:

 

[Sagitario]

I really like this picture (colors, DOF, etc).

 

[Caffeine]

some of my pick ups

 

[Artorias]

Just a few things to watch and a skylander I've been wanting. My old copy of Mononoke started skipping during one of the final scenes. It's so weird to have one that actually says Disney now instead of Miramax.

 

[GundamBanshee]
