3 gaming pick-ups this month
Hyrule Historia Regular and Limited editions:
What's that over the two books? A bookmark?

I ordered a bunch of Disney movies off of Amazon.
I accidentally bought PAL box sets of Toy Story and the Lion King Movies. Luckily they are region free.
I'm still trying to decide if I want to keep Black Ops 2 for Wii U or take it back.

Cinderella Collectors Edition. It looks neat but I do not recommend buying this. It's very cheaply made, especially the "book" that contains the movies but it does have nice art in it.
I picked up some video games. Mirror's Edge, Call of Duty Black Ops 2, Rayman Origins, Tomb Raider, Lego City Undercover (really been looking forward to this one), and Epic Mickey 2. I also grabbed a year of xbox live since it was 39.99 at Target and another Wiimote+Nunchuck.

Sorry for the terrible pictures, was too lazy to even get up and turn on the lights. PAX tuckered me out hahah.
Not really a SNES collector but I have always wanted to own boxed copies of each of the Donkey Kong Countries and couldn't help myself when I saw these two at PAX

Also they were giving these out at PAX to anyone who had an android phones. It is actually quite nice and comes with a nice little carrying pouch. Using it with A Galaxy S3
I've been looking at Ni No Kuni for a while, but have been hesitant to buy it. Well, my coworker asked me the other day if I knew anyone looking to buy it and I told him I'd be interested. Got the book and game used, but in great condition for...$30!
Also, I decided to pick up OoT for my new 3DS. Owned it on N64 and never beat it. I always hear about how great it is so I decided to give it another shot.

Got a neat jacket and some new kicks this weekend. Feels good man.
I've decied to make more of an effort to embrace my Vita lately.
I got caught up in GAF's current Monster Hunter fever, the problem is I don't have a 3DS or a Wii U so I was glad to find Freedom Unite on PSN for $10. I've never played a MH game before, but I figured for $10 I could give the series a shot
I also haven't played a Megaman game since I was maybe nine years old, and hey guys, Mega Man games are hard ><
Were it not for the occasionally shitty framerate, this game would be a damn-near perfect mobile version of Trials.
I was browsing the PS1 classics and came across Destrega. The name sounded oddly familiar, so I looked up some gameplay on YouTube and sure enough, I played the shit out of the demo for this game 13 years ago that came with an issue of OPM. Completely forgot about it. Talk about a random find, it's still a shockingly fun (and difficult) game.

Yep. It's a promotional bookmark for Hyrule Historia.
That's awesome. Gotta find me one of those.

Those were Euro exclusive. They only came out in the older style.

Time to let it go.
PC + 3DS next generation seems to be the best formula.
You don't need to take a picture of your monitor

It really is the best formula.
I think it was a uk exclusive for FIFA or something.

Bioshock press kit
cool pick up
but why would the press, who is supposed to give an objective review of this game, receive a package like that?
oh gaming "journalism"
Add a hinge in the middle.

Very nice jacket, I've been looking for something similar, could you tell us where you bought it?
That is fantastic. Really awesome for a piece of swag at a con.

Sweet! Classy pics, man. I like the MGS shelf and the RE setup is nice too.
Also never got to thank you for the little doodle you threw in that package you sent me a long time ago. I was reusing the envelope today and I noticed it. I appreciate it!
And this stuff too:
Supposed to be "Japan Style" which i don't believe but it was cheap, so whatever.
Nice Jackets, where from?

Well, I really hope you're thin enough to be able to fit in those jackets and like them a lot. We've discussed them in the Manshion thread and most of them are cheap, ill-fitting clothes that only look 'good' because of them being pinned to the mannequin but some have had a bit of success with them.
Best of luck but hopefully it didn't set you back too much.
