Posted it in the other thread but since it was the last day here:

Loving it so far. Just finished Chapter 3. Things are getting interesting. Sucks I had to pay $40+ to import, but I guess it was worth it since it is in English.

Expecting Yakuza 4 soon...however the person I bought it from took too long to send it out and it still wasn't here by the 30th. A bit ridiculous. I mail shit out all the time via US mail and it gets there within 3 days.
What is the best site to buy European games if you're in the US?
 
Here are some of the things I picked up this month thanks to Amazon except the Vanilla Coke :D

Been looking for this game for a long time, finally I was able to find it and it's in mint condition.

One of the best puzzle games ever made!

Where do you live if you don't mind me asking? I've been wanting an Astro City cabinet (two actually) for ages now and they're impossible to find locally. I'm willing to have them shipped out and everything, but it's hard finding anything online.

Staten Island, NY. Bought the cab about 5 years ago, had it shipped from the west coast via NAVL. It was around $200 to ship, with the cab itself being around $450.

My ceramic white DS3 now has an odd D-PAD after some decent use with MK. The D-PAD sort of turns left/right in the slot because of extensive use.

Don't tend to play many games that make heavy use of D-pad so not too much not too much of a problem. Better than having a controller that doesn't do what you want it to, and has a tendency to stick a lot.

Past two weeks pickups, some games to feed my PS3, Mushihime-sama Futari 1.5 platinum even tough i already have the limited edition but it was cheap and Cave needs more money, and Trouble Witches Neo!











 
Few pickups, some from today, some from last month.

- Picked up both SSFIV and PES 2011 for £25 each. The 3DS console was £180, which wasn't too bad.

- My first Nintendogs. I wanted another 3DS game to show off the system (I didn't want to support Ubi and Namco's lazy portage scheme) so this was my choice. My Shiba is so cute, plus being able to take him for a walk and earning accessories is pretty cool.

- Naturally, I needed a case so I bought the HORI Hard Pouch. I'm thinking of getting something a little bigger because I'm amassing more DS games each week (Ghost Trick is on the way) and I want somewhere to put my charger, headphones, etc.

- Had to get Okamiden before it disappeared forever.

- My first Pokemon since Red on the GB. My girlfriend's little brother has White so naturally I had to get Black. Picked up the Pokedex Guide so that I can catch 'em all, of course!

- New pair of Onitsuka Tigers (with the old ones in the background). I didn't want to get just 'another pair', so I opted for these. I wanted some in black but didn't like the fabric of the '81s or the plain black and white of the other '66s. Comfy as any other pair.

Finally...

A new watch! This was a 21st birthday present (my birthday was in January, but I've only received it from Japan recently) from my parents. It's a Seiko automatic; it's my first watch so I'm getting used to the whole 'keeping it in time' thing. It's pretty classy I think..

Wow, what an absolute treat this is. The production values are insane, and the game won me over instantly...unfortunately I'm going to have to put it off for a month until after exams :( But I'm so glad I grabbed a copy.

Does anyone know if they are going to print more? I am interested after seeing a lot of them in the pick up threads.

Had to order MK from TRU's website and they would credit me the $10 off once it arrived. Ended up using the credit from MK to offset the price of Thor DS.
 
Got a new laptop because my other one broke. :(

It's a Gateway NV53A. So far it's really good :)

Impulse buy. Read on the back of the box about how it's an Action RPG.. and I love Action RPGs.
 
Last of the parts for my PC arrived the other day. Was going to go with a new video card but decided to stick with my old 4770.

Where did you get this?
Local surf/skate shop. They still do have the shirt, as well as others, on The Hundreds webstore. Just look for the Garfield collection.

I'll probably by one of their hoodies as well as the mug eventually.

Awesome game - welcome to the club! :)

If you can figure out Stages 37 & 38 on Rescue 10, please help me! lol

Also, for anyone with a DSi, there is a simplified pseudo-sequel/remake available on DSiWare called "ぐるぐるロジック" (Guruguru Logic) on the JP store and "SnapDots" on the US store for 500 points!
 
My new rig:

I want to take pics of it with the side of the case open, but I would have to take it out from behind my desk and do that. It's a shame too, because it looks gorgeous on the inside. Everything is wrapped up so nice and tidy.

  • AMD Phenom II X4 3.2ghz
  • 8GB DDR3 RAM
  • ATI Radeon 6950 2GB

Some new PC games:

Not pictured: a bunch of games I picked up at the end of April that don't count for this thread. Also, a copy of Metro 2033 that is on its way.

My new iPad 2:

This was a birthday present from my parents (my birthday was on Wednesday). The app in question is Flipboard, an rss reader that formats updates and news like a magazine. Also, I can read plenty of comics.

Some of us are rather spoiled fml

Hahah, I bought the parts for the rig and the games with my own hard earned money (I am a working stiff, after all). Just the ipad was a gift.
