Here's my recap of Feb. 2012....

Man... WTF? Is this really ALL I got in Feb? No love.

Well. I also got a Vita, but I already have a Japanese one as well so I didn't take a pic... sigh.

Street Fighter X Tekken soon. <3

 

[Nisa65]

Picked up the One Piece PS3 today. Not really all that interested in the game tbh, I just think the console itself looks great.

Also picked these up on my recent jaunt up to Tokyo the other week.

 

[mocolostrocolos]

Post impessions of 3nd Impact, please

 

[Barrel Cannon]

Wow that golden Ps3 is awesome. I don't even watch one piece and I want it.

 

[stonedwal]

Being really strict with the discretionary spending this year, but this showed up today.

Looks better than I expected (though the lighting in here is crappy, so the picture sucks).

 

[Dilli666]

Wow @ gold Dualshock 3 :O

 

[haigyman]

deleted.

 

[def sim]

that's

huh

 

[CoachKevin]

This is pretty much the final piece to the arcade (aside from an Konami 4 Player cab I am picking up).

This machine was family owned for over 25 years. That is the reason that it is in such great shape (everything but the control panel is original).

Just need to replace the control pane overlay.







Now the arcade line up is: NBA JAM T.E., Street Fighter II Hyper Fighting, Ms. Pacman, Donkey Kong, and a Mario Bros cab with a 60-in-1 board.

 

[checkeredknight]

dunno.

Huh. So these poundland alternatives are actually based off a proper Japanese product? Or... is the Japanese product the alternative to these poundland things? My head hurts.

 

[Buttons]

Picked up the One Piece PS3 today. Not really all that interested in the game tbh, I just think the console itself looks great.

Wow that PS3 is gorgeous. o.o Amazing pick-up.

 

[Blunt]

I've lurked the Pick-Up threads for years, now it is time to join the ranks of the elite consumer whores of NeoGAF and finally become a man.



Games! Most of which I'll probably never find time to play! Found the DJ Hero Renegade Edition in a department store nearby that they've had since it came out in 2009. Brand new for $10.

Gal Gun on PS3. Creeper Cam is go. Ughhhhhhhh.

Also, Syndicate in Australia. Fight the power.

Some books, Kubricks and a signed piece of Asura's Wrath artwork by two of the developers from a Capcom event. I cannot remember who they were because I was full of free Red Bull and vodka's courtesy of Capcom PR.

Started a small vinyl collection, all I need now is a turntable. Thinking about picking up a Rega RP3 later in the year. Got two copies of HSCP2 because I bought one in a store then a week later saw them for $10 on Amazon.

Bowers & Wilkins 683 front standing speakers and the HTM61 centre speaker (not pictured but trust me it's there). Most expensive recent pick-up but so worth it and the price was fantastic. Got 25% off the RRP and a further $1000 off due to a pricing error. I love these things plus I can wow/bore friends and family by telling them they are made of Kevlar! Can your speakers stop bullets? Because mine can. Shit yeah.

 

[CaseyTappy]

[sixteen-bit]

New Month ,

So sick! Nice pickup dude.

 

[Deefuzz]

Finally found this at TRU, been looking for it since the Super Heroes stuff started hitting.

Saw this massive Minifig head at Target, couldn't pass it up.

Finally caved and bought this. Even though my portable backlog is long as hell already.

Giddy up!

 

[hipgnosis]

New Month ,

Ketsui time !

Nice one! A masterpiece.

 

[BOTEC]

New Month ,

Ketsui time !

Excellent.

Still haven't gotten my hands on this one.

 

[Mrcapcom]

Pick this baby up for 150 and 25 for the extended

 

[GitarooMan]

This is seriously drool-worthy. Congrats on picking up one in such nice condition, such a great machine to have, game never gets old.

 

[neojubei]

 

[Wrekt]

I needed a new mouse in preparation for Guild Wars 2. I'm a fan of the buttons, not so much a fan of the glow. At least it goes with my g15 when I turn on the back-light:

You have good taste there junior.

Picked up a PSP from the Community Bull/Sell/Trade thread and going through my PSP backlog starting with Kenka Bancho.

 

[The Elite]

Post impessions of 3nd Impact, please

You mean 3nd isn't a typo?

 

[Thoraxes]

Well, here's my late 3DS pickup pics (of which I totally missed the thread). When I get my camera back will do Vita.

 

[zmet]

Gundam 00: The Complete First and Second Seasons

Battle Garegga

It's missing the spine card but the disc and manual are in mint condition.

Data East Retro Game Music Collection 3

Game soundtracks in this collection: Heavy Barrel, Psycho-nics Oscar, Crude Buster, Edward Randy, Dark Seal

 

[Giant Robot]

awesome. I've had mine for the past few years and love them. Just don't let any little ones get to them

 

[dc89]

:O

Holy cow! They are defiled.

 

[Dead]

ouch

I'll be picking up a pair of B&W 685 speakers and the HTM62 center sometime in the near future. Can't wait!

 

[Tomodachi]

You mean 3nd isn't a typo?

Unfortunately. It's an awful pun.

 

[Anth0ny]

Picked up the One Piece PS3 today. Not really all that interested in the game tbh, I just think the console itself looks great.

I hate you. I hate you so much. I didn't even pick up the game cause it was fucking $100 ; _ ;

My pickups from February:

I hold my Hyrule Historia close to my heart every night when I sleep.

 

[Jayayess1190]

Sold my DSi last year to finance a Lenovo X220 purchase, nice to have back a Nintendo handheld:

 

[twisteddeeds]

awesome. I've had mine for the past few years and love them. Just don't let any little ones get to them

had the same thing happen to me, have you tried blu-tac or scotch tape?

 

[survivor]

Devil Survivor 2. Can't wait to play it. Loved the first one

 

[ASilva]

Just got these, fantastic sound.

Yamaha EPH-100

 

[Giant Robot]

had the same thing happen to me, have you tried blu-tac or scotch tape?

yea I'm aware of the tape/vacuum method. These tweeters are aluminum and dented, so it's not as easy. Just gonna have to replace the tweeters from B&W.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Battle Garegga

It's missing the spine card but the disc and manual are in mint condition.

So jealous.

 

[Blunt]

awesome. I've had mine for the past few years and love them. Just don't let any little ones get to them

Nightmare fuel! I'm pretty paranoid about the tweeters being pushed in by some jerk so I leave the covers on and suffer slightly by not being able to look at awesome cones 24/7. Hope the repair goes well, duder.

I'll be picking up a pair of B&W 685 speakers and the HTM62 center sometime in the near future. Can't wait!

B&W GAF - Assemble! I'll be picking up some 685's for my surround channels in a few months time. I dislike how the stands cost half as much as the speakers themselves. But damn, do they look shit hot.

 

[luka]

This was a good week. Oh how long i have waited...

There is nothing i can say about this set but MAGNIFICENT. Bring on june and diebuster! Still so far away ;_;

The under defeat LE boxart is....really bad. Looks like a lady with a midget in her lap (*&#65377;_&#65377

 

[Gunmonkey36]

You can turn off the glowing/the whole lighting in general if you download the utilities.

 

[Three60]

New racing cocpit *Rinoseat GTR* + Logi G27 wheel

 

[Ignis]

 

[bob page]

Not gaming related, but just got this bad boy. Best briefcase ever.

 

[Bragarb07]

How much the B&W 683 are worth?

 

[SnowHawk]

Nice pick up. I could only get the treasure box.

 

[Giant Robot]

How much the B&W 683 are worth?

When they first came out a few years ago, i think they were $1800 for the pair. It's something like $1500 for the pair now.

I dig your taste in vinyl. I've been wanting to get into vinyl myself, and all of those would definitely be on my list of stuff to get!

 

[Ledsen]

That looks great. Where and how much?
