Oh. Not nearly as exciting as I thought.

 

[The_Monk]

What's going on, MarkMan doing the thread on time, what!

By the way fellow GAFfer MarkMan those are some very nice tshirts, would love to get one of those but it's seems that is rather impossible since I'm in Europe...

One of my last pick-up was yesterday and already posted but here it is, again:

 

[MicH]

Finally decided to get this beauty. Been wanting it ever since it was released here.

3DS XL White with Mario Kart 7

 

[HildyB]

Just posted yesterday, but really digging into this phone, loving it. Puzzle and Dragons looks great and the audio is fantastic. Just picked up The Room and can't wait to play that one. Best phone I've had since the iPhone 4.

Unlocked (US) 32GB HTC One. Love it.

That DS is so nice. Closest we'll get to one of those is the Animal Crossing version.

 

[WEGGLES]

Bought standalone bike stand Minoura E'SSE DS-2100 to put my bike vertically - the only one I have found (without drilling holes in my wall)

Where and how much? I need a couple bike racks for the house and don't want to put holes in the wall either.

This is the first time I made the thread early in quite some time!

You can actually preorder the new clothing in the UK! - http://store.gameshark.net/merchandise/322

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Well, I guess it's an okay start to the month:

I need some skrilla.

Congrats on the new baby. I wish you a good life with her.

I'm always touched by new babies on this thread since I've posted once (or twice? can't remember) about my kids who are now almost 4yo and 2yo. Time flies by when you present your newborn to GAF and then talk about that same kid that can kick some ass in the Rayman app for Wii U

Thanks for the link fellow GAFfer!

I've bought it online - Halfords (UK) - £68 (was £85 - 20% off bike accessories). RRP is £100.
Now it's -25% :/ (£63 pounds)

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/..._productId_919789_langId_-1_categoryId_242557

In US is ~$100 I guess.

 

[Yes Boss!]

Started my new VC collection on the Wii U. It will be glorious.

 

[dokish]

Tani/Tami have the most awesome handwriting ever.

 

[Sushigod7]

Congrats already best pick up of the thread. Mine is 15 months now your in for so much fun, you'll hear it 100 times but it goes fast don't miss anything!

 

[Business]

Started my new VC collection on the Wii U. It will be glorious.

Wait I understood you coudn't remote play VC games on the pad. Is it possible?

 

[Dave Long]

Any virtual console game released on the Wii U can be played on the Gamepad. If they haven't done a Wii U version of the game you want yet, then no.

Right now...
Excitebike
Punch Out!!
Ice Climber
Donkey Kong Jr.
Super Mario World
F-Zero
Kirby's Adventure

...are all playable on the Gamepad. Pac-Man (NES) and Mega Man are coming this week. If you already own them on the Wii and did a system transfer to a Wii U, then you can pay a dollar to move them to Wii U if they're NES games and $1.50 if they are SNES games.

 

[Yes Boss!]

Any virtual console game released on the Wii U can be played on the Gamepad. If they haven't done a Wii U version of the game you want yet, then no.

Definitely worth the $8 for all the stuff they are adding to the games. Can't wait till Super Metroid comes out...never really played that one.

I left a few hundred VC games on my old Wiis. And now I'm starting again! Probably will release at a slower pace this time but we should be guaranteed lots of classics. N64 stuff will be really cool on the Gamepad, I'm thinking.

 

[Dave Long]

Do a system transfer if you own stuff still. It's fun just watching Pikmin carry everything to the Wii U.

Also, Super Metroid will be 30 cents when it is released. Yes Boss! probably knew that, but others may want to know. It comes in like two weeks.

 

[Schlep]

Finally done with my short Windows Phone experience.

 

[zmet]

Time Bokan (used) and Mahou Daisakusen Original Soundtrack

Soundtracks included in this collection are from the arcade games: Sorcer Striker, Kingdom Grandprix, and Dimahoo. Also, there's two arranged tracks performed by Heavy Metal Raiden

 

[eXistor]

Finally got 'round to getting Code of Princess. I was not into the idea of downloading it digitally (the only way it's available here in Europe) and I just got a cheap-ish US 3DS (€50,-) so I thought why not? Might come in handy.

That's a bit rich considering I need two.

Ah well.

 

[Chromax]

Picked up the new Vertu Ti (Vertu running on Android) when I was in Paris. I think I'll be using this phone for a long time.

Bape HK store 7 year limited edition t-shirt

The game I'm spending all my time on atm...

Kit-kats from Japan!

I said goddamn at the price, haha

 

[Totobeni]

my biggest buy in a while:


Out with the old (660ti) in with the new:

congrats on the Titan.

I'm waiting for the Gtx 780 to upgrade hope the rumors are real and it's really a slimmed down -and cheaper- Titan.

now this is how you design a cool-ass looking smartphone (not the Galaxy/iphone tired design)

Hope you know that if you own a wii VC game and transfer it onto your Wii U, you only need to pay a small upgrade price if that game is released on the Wii U VC.

 

[persongr]

For €18 / $24 I snatched (used of course, but in excellent condition):

Also, bought this for a similar price:
