August 2012 pickups

[AO007]

Yeah, I know it is. I was just curious if you liked the feel of it or whatever, which obviously you didn't see.

People say it "feels" better, but the screen has a yellow tint for white colors.

[wiggy]

I went to a few places today hoping to see it and feel it. No dice. Also, was trying to score a DSi for less than 130 now that the 3DS XL is out. Also no dice :/

Did get this though. 4 bucks at sears. Finally don't have to lean forward to play

[sheep2001]

I was going to ask you to pick me up 4 of them until I realised they were battery operated.

[Dan-Fu]

They last a really long time, unless you don't turn it off. 

[sheep2001]

I own and run 3 holiday houses on my land, and each has a wii.  Can't rely on people to turn things off.

[wiggy]

They have an auto shut off feature

Welp, I picked up New Super Mario Bros. 2 today. Loads of fun, as usual. 

I just beat it 5 minutes ago.  Kind of disappointed actually.  The "gold flower" only appears like 3 times in the whole game....  I was hoping for something a little newer, but it is just the DS game and Wii game all over again.  Not a terrible game, but just not as good as I had hoped

I really didn't expect much with something that seemed so dumb. I mean a Mario game where the main objective is to collect as many coins as possible. What is Miyamoto smoking now!

Don;t worry, that is NOT even the objective!  I feel it was advertised a little wrong.  I wasted so much time trying to get as many coins as possibe... you don;t even need them to get to the last boss or anything.

picked these up today from craigslist. this package was supposed to come with tomba, but the seller became overwhelmed with buyers that just wanted to buy tomba and nothing else. she became curious and looked it up online and found how much they were going for on ebay. she didn't even bother telling me that she put it up on ebay until i handed her the $20. the worst part is that i drove 65 miles expecting to get my hands on tomba for cheap. if she were a man i would've put her in a suplex. so angry..... but on the up side, i got the recalled version of tiger woods 99 (south park edition)



got these from various places.


oh yeah....i also bought shelving last week.

[wiggy]

Shoulda given her the ol' falcon punch  


Kinda sucks too, since that stuff really isn't even worth the money.  Figure about $4 a gallon for gas @ about 30MPG and you've got 16 bucks on top of the 20 right there.  $36 for that sutff?  Nah, I'd demand Tombaa or gas moneyz.

[AO007]

Tomba will depreciate in value anyway, thanks to the PSN release. Won't be MUCH cheaper, but it won't be the goldmine it has been for years.

[Superchop]

Picked this up last Friday!  Still sealed though and dunno if I'll open it anytime soon.  I bought the game to support the whole Operation Rainfall thing but since my wii is hacked to play games from a usb hdd I rented the game from gamefly to play.

Other games I picked up were

Shin Megami's Nocturne for ps2 and Naruto Clash of the Ninja for GCN.
