What do you get for the gamer who has everything?

It's Christmas time. I'm trying to find something special for my friend, but this guy has it all. What do you recommend for the gamer that has everything? Non-gaming gifts are okay, too....

He will this weekend. He's pre-ordered at two different shops, and is planning to wait in line for it Saturday night.


I hate him. Get him nothing.


Actually, get him a big ass memory stick or two for his PSP.

If only you could buy intelligence and good taste. ZING!

I think I've made it quite clear that he has those things.

Did you just try to 'zing' me? Didn't you learn the lesson from the 'I tried to zing a marine' thread?

The entire post was sarcastic.

And did I have points to lose? Or am I in the negative?

And I never learn my lesson. :D
 
Does he have one of these:D

Just 17 posts in and this topic has kinda been derailed... :lol

Funny though as it is, I think too that memory-sticks for his PSP seem a viable option. Unless you want to give him something funny and/or cool, then you should try and find a statue/poseable action figure of his most favorite hero (provided he doesn't already have one of course, then go for his second most favorite :p)
 
Shit, you know what's even better than memory sticks? Batteries for the PSP. I shit you not.

You could always buy him a Playdia or a Pippin or some crazy shit off eBay, too.
 
Used reconditioned Astrocities usually go on sale each xmas at Tessin.co.jp (if this friend is in Japan, which i suspect he is)

worked out at 10,000 yen a unit (but with 10,000 shipping from Osaka).

Alternatively, you can pick up second hand Superguns for 20,000 or so.

There is a Pippin on sale in superpotato and game hollywood in aki too.

There are those AWESOME NES controller cushins in Super potato, along with a control meishi holder that kick ass as novelty gifts.

Do you have a price range?

Well, he's my best friend, but I don't want to go overboard and buy him something pricey if he isn't planning on getting me anything. That might be awkward.

I guess I could just make him a paper mache' Mario.

Seriously though, these are quirky, neat, inexpensive and I'd love them as a gamer. So ah, buy me some if nothing else. They're little stages from the first Super Mario Bros. game with magnet blocks, figures, etc that can be moved around. Whee!

Okay- frankly, the pillow screams 'no girls will sleep with me!', and I don't want to give my friend the impression that that's the case. Moreover, if he had one of those pillows, would he ever get laid in his apartment?

When the little stage magnets came out, we were in Ueno shopping for our Halloween costumes. My friend bought the entire set, and then another set to sell on Ebay. I've got the extra World 1-1 he gave me sitting on my desk as I type.
 
My parents are asking me what I want for Christmas and I'm like "uh ... nothing?"

I live a life of overluxury. I guess I'll get $200 in Half-Price Books certificates.

Fixed. :/

if it's for JF,

then you should get him a Solid Snake Mullet wig,
some Caloriemate
a air pistol (silenced)
some ciggies
then have him kicked out of his house by some Russian woman who turns out to be a robot dinosaur from mars, but not really, because the aliens from Saturn recoded her for "pleasure services", but she was lying about that so she could get information on a secret war project that the Saturnians were talking to the Uranians about , and actually she's actually working for the Spanish to test out a new anti-personel lazer that she has hidden in her ass , but even that was a lie, because all she set out to do was to show that we really are all just bound together by love.

We can also keep talking about old movies we like.

You can't get a better prezzie than that.
