September went by a lot faster than I hoped it would. I wanted to relax and enjoy, but that's not how things work. We are trying to close out the year with a bang! Don't forget, 3 months left! Make them count!

In September I was all over the world, I had a great time spending about 2 weeks in Tokyo. Check out what I got in September!

10538718_326168564228935_2068878436_n.jpg

I got this at PAX Prime, lol. Self explanatory. It really is against humanity if you think about it...

Smash Bros. towel? Wipe off after Smash'n?

10349514_1540808026142511_1339566926_n.jpg

Persona 4 The Ultimax Ultra Suplex Hold came out in Japan! So did the Mad Catz TE2 FightStick!

10597374_1477547469161798_1930767042_n.jpg

Adding to my PlayStation themed sneaker collection. Got the PlayStation inspired Nike Blazer.

10665899_304013783124999_599327910_n.jpg

Got a care package from my friends at NIKE! Love the variety of good stuff they sent me and got some goodies for my daughter too. <3

10693711_270182236439078_523945277_n.jpg

Finally got this PS1 version of Chrono Trigger in Japan. Looking to complete my Chrono Trigger collection. I still need the promo SFC versions of CT, the contest one and the VJUMP promo one.

10005436_545341782267088_570105706_n.jpg

This is Migi. It was one of the main characters in Parasyte (Kiseijuu), a manga that I read (and loved) many years back. I was surprised to find new merchandise for Parasyte while in Japan. I later found out that 2 new live action movies were being made and a new anime series! Migi is going to be voiced by Aya Hirano, who is most known for her role as Haruhi.

10632158_1696346417256273_39172072_n.jpg

Some Dragon Quest love. <3 got these two on my first tries. I love gachapon.

10693708_906460109383262_1454330161_n.jpg

Picked up this PlayStation bag from TGS' Cospa booth. The logos and PlayStation type are printed with a 3M (reflective) print, so it looks extra cool in natural/artificial lighting.

10693264_352172138282525_247901738_n.jpg

I was stoked to be able to work with VampyBitMe & Christcastic at Tokyo Game Show this year. I've worked with Vampy many times and both these gals made my job a lot more enjoyable...

...bonus picture with happy MarkMan...

Dragon Quest solo guitar collection music CD from the Square Enix music sales booth at TGS! Also came with the most bad ass sampler CD I've ever listened to!

10691827_1493806580878063_1410859059_n.jpg

Finally got my complete collection of Sanwa briarwood ball tops! Thanks Sanwa <3

1168552_568811936557739_1820508495_n.jpg

I got this iPhone 5S case on impulse and will probably only use it for about an hour before I switch to my iPhone 6 that's awaiting me, lol.

1742569_321654498014084_1496030446_n.jpg

927170_830109273696018_114488745_n.jpg

10666042_1475256622754510_1499151848_n.jpg

Mother 2 / Earthbound gachapon! I'm still missing Mr. Saturn. I have all the others!

10665277_641338322651336_406608176_n.jpg

Finally... over the weekend I arranged some of my more recent sneaker pick-ups. Man, if you think this is a problem. You should see my video games and arcade sticks. >.>

That's it for my September! If you want to find out more about my adventures (in photos) and some text, check me out at http://markman23.com ;)

Would you mind telling me where you picked it up, please?

Qwertee. They sell original t-shirt designs that are created by others for $12 + $3 shipping, doing 2 new shirts a day and only for a day. Unfortunately, this t-shirt may be gone, as it was actually a reprint which they usually don't do. But, there are plenty of other fantastic designs so check it out.

-My back-ordered copy of SHIELD finally shipped from Amazon, GBII is on Blu-Ray at last, and I heard good things about Let Me In and found it cheap at Half-Price Books.

JZ09Y82.jpg

-I found some cheap movies I wanted to see at Half-Price Books.

Z1VepxH.jpg

-My first Pokemon D-Arts figure - I want the others too but they've gotten so pricey. :(

HB6rtZZ.jpg

-I found the one RE book I was missing at Half-Price Books and the Tetris handheld & Minifig for 99¢ each.

YIQviKW.jpg

-I got the latest issue of Retro in the mail and the Hyrule Warriors guide is from Amazon.

WAaSXKE.jpg

-I went to Best Buy to pick up Hyrule Warriors & Killer Instinct and got the other games on clearance for ~$8-11 each (with Gamer's Club discount).

e3HjfSC.jpg

-I finally got around to importing a pair of games I've wanted for a while - both games are great! :D

7scsLWc.jpg

-I had a B2G1 coupon for Gamestop that was about to expire so I used it to grab some of the LEGO games I was missing. I found the Hot Wheels game at Goodwill.

XUkah6z.jpg

-I found Tarzan at Goodwill and the PS2 games at Half-Price Books.

gVLr0GI.jpg

-I got a Mutant League Hockey case to pair with the cart I picked up at Comic Con and found the GB/NES games at Half-Price Books.

IJ6h5Gr.jpg

-I found this at Half-Price Books last week. No Expansion Pack but the console and controller are in excellent condition!
 
Okay, I'll try the pumpkin spice Oreos! I heard you the first time!

They are surprisingly good... Most Pumpkin Spice items (M&Ms, Twix, etc.) have been hit or miss but I can't stop eating these... Nearly on the Reese's Peanut Butter Oreo tier for me (which I didn't think would happen).

The Nvidia bridge definitely has some weight to it and is solid. The greens are not this light but my shitty phone camera couldn't capture it correctly.

Mouse is extremely comfortable imo. Small issue though, and the right LED on the mouse by the scroll wheel decides it wants to be an asshole and not work properly.

Corsair is aware and are supposedly working to fix it in case anyone is interested in this mouse.

Now just need the GTX 970 G1 Gigabyte models to magically come back in stock somewhere...

Also, ignore the prices on the boxes in the image. I paid like 60-75% of the sticker price for all of the pictured. The 5820k was only $260!

Coming off a Phenom II X4 970 and DDR2 RAM, this was a massive upgrade for me, and long overdue.

Decided to post these once a month a recap unless I just HAVE to share something lol

This is my September haul:
Finally decided to jump in with the high capacity WiiU GamePad battery to prepare for long-session games coming next year (dat X, dat Zelda!) that I'm not playing with a pro controller.

Also re-bought Wario Land Shake Dimension which I foolishly sold after beating a few years ago. Sadly the copy I bought from amazon marketplace was of shoddy quality with missing manual. Gotta replace that soon. And my quest to buy a bunch of Splinter Cell games started during my stealth game hype month lol. Face Training I bought because it is the only DSi-exclusive retail game Nintendo made themselves. The cart is white! (and it cost 1 cent plus shipping ^^)

ALL of my gaming pickups from the month of September! An interesting mix of old and new, but that's what happens when you happen to come across some great deals and old favorites. Got some of my fave DS games are back in my collection, and some unexpectedly great prices on 360 games at GameStop. Plus, that Groupon deal on the 2DS was just too good to pass up! Probably won't bring this many titles into the collection again for a long time, especially with 2014's big games starting to come out!
