Wow, that's fantastic! You should have taken more photos.
I haven't posted in this thread for a while (haven't been in a picture-taking mood), so here's something I got in the mail just now. :]
The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages. 2001. Game Boy Color. Nintendo. $25
The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons. 2001. Game Boy Color. Nintendo. $25
I've been meaning to get these two games ever since I saw the previews for them in an issue of Nintendo Power over 10 years ago. Thanks in part to the 25th Anniversary Zelda thread here on GAF, I figured now would be a good time to get them. Of course, there is a chance that they'll appear on the 3DS's Virtual Console but it's nice to have the originals. Too bad GBC games won't work on the DS since I stored my Game Boy Color (and Advance for that matter) in some boxes a long time ago. I guess I'll have to dig through them so I can start playing these.
On a related note, I've purchased quite a number of Zelda games in the past few weeks. So I may end up taking pictures of those at a later time. I'm thinking of playing through the Zelda games in chronological order of their release.

Well I honestly don't remember what month these are from but I haven't posted them yet, so I'm counting it as march.
The thing in the front is a WD 2 TB external drive. The digital label there is actually e-ink. I guess that's fun, but not particularly necessary. The other thing is a WD TV Live. Plays pretty much any format of audio or video and is network capable so I can just throw whatever I want onto the external drive from any computer on the network. Nifty!
My first smart phone, the HTC HD7 which is a WP7 phone. I'm running it on Mobilicity as I'm in the Vancouver area. It's working pretty good but the coverage in my city isn't that great. It's difficult to get a signal at work. On the other hand I have a Mobilicity tower about 200 feet from my house so I always have a good signal here.
EDIT: I forgot to mention it has a Speck case on that came with it (ebay auction).

I got a used Xbox and used Advanced HD pack (component cables) along with a new case and modchip and finally got it all put together and working, all so I could play DOA3.1 again.
This is a neat pick-up for fifty cents.
I've gotten a bunch of games too but I've kinda burned out on posting in this thread and haven't bothered to take any pics.

That blue PS3 looks like an extremely effective way to spend 500-600$leng jai said:
Why are you keeping it on the shelf but out of the box?

It's still connected to my Walkman and FiiO to burn-in/break-in, I usually do this for 50-73 hours or more before I use them, I will tell you as fast as I finish the burn in.

Finally managed to get my hands on an affordable Bebop music collection. The case and booklet are pretty sexy covered in lyrics (in japanese) and concept art. 4 cds of Yoko Kanno & The Seatbelts original compositions, although not every track is included sadly.
Also picked up Killzone 3 and Inception.

Yes Boss! said:Double-dip on Uncharted 2 cause I felt like playing it again and gave away my original copy to my brother in 2009.
I also picked up Uncharted 2, ModNation Racers, Heavy Rain and Borderlands GOTY Ed.
They were on sale, 2 for 40 CDN.
I just wanted to get them before 'teh' UGLY RED CASES.
Where did you buy that collection? The ones on ebay are 99% counterfeits because the original piece goes for $200-300 in YJA. Anyways, congrats.Appollowexx said:

Oh deciding between Black and White was still a big decision for me, definitely. The other version goes to my bitter rival.Alucrid said:

If you buy Black at KMart, White is 50% off. I might go halfsies with my bro.
Yay I can finally post my pick ups
After reading about A song of Ice and Fire in OT, I figured I'd give it a try, it's been a while since I read a fantasy book that isn't written by Pratchett. I forgot how huge those kind of book could get tho :/
Also picked up Red Alert 3 steelbook. Don't know if the game's good, it was cheap anyway...
And a few stuff for med school, those books are getting expensive =/
Will buy pokemon tomorrow, haven't played a pokemon game since Yellow, I'm excited to go back

It's actually an Ironpak AFAIK, same thing though.
Yes it's good, if you liked RA2 you'll enjoy it. Plus it has Kari Whurer as Tanya =D
(RA2 is still better though)
Thanks to a poster a few pages back and RFD, I was able to pickup one of the clearance $99 PSP's from Staples here in Canada. Also picked up the three games you see in the photo. (FF7, Capcom Puzzle World, and Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded)
With this and the 3DS later this month (and my ipod touch), I think I'll be set for portable gaming for awhile.

I lucked out and got it for £40 from a private seller on ebay.co.uk - sent from Tokyo - it was still sealed with the japanese stickers on the shrink wrap. Pretty happy with that as I've been searching for a good 6 months at least.

Tactics Ogre kinda tumbled in from February... The Memory Boy's a wicked pedal - tap keeps our U2 stuff locked tight...
Here's my brand new $19 Arcade Fightstick for the Wii, courtesy a pricing error at a local Game Stop... And this is my second PSP Go (third in the household as my son has one too) - $99 at Staples here in Canada, and I wanted a black one to go with the white I've been using since launch... Also snapped up a couple more of the Sony OEM extended life batteries for our PSP1000/2000/3000 - I heard Sony's discontinued production on them. And of course, Y's came out so I grabbed - so many great memories of playing this game on the Turbo-CD - but I've also grabbed Xenogears and Vagrant Story, so it will have to wait a couple weeks until I can get to it... The TurboExpress has been mine for many, many years, but a couple of the audio caps went bad a while back, and at least one of the video caps gave out in February... sent it off to one of the good lads on the pcenginefx.com forum for a full overhaul, and it came back better than ever! It's looks and sounds like new - soo cool!
