been a while since i did one of these. last pics i have are from february and it's been a slow year, so let's skip ahead to july:
game, the british retailer that went bankrupt last year, still exist under new owners in sweden and they've just started carrying retro stuff. kinda pricey, but for pal-b releases with japanese illustrations (just look at kung fu and kid icarus) it's nice to be able to get a closer look at them before you order. i guess they didn't go with these sweet kitchy pics on us & uk carts because someone complained that it wasn't representative of the actual gameplay or something like that. also devil summoner 1&2 were reprinted, which was nice of atlus since the first one was reaching rule of rose levels of expensive. breath of fire 3&4 also from game, and i always liked the idea of the rosen queen co. edition of sakura wars with the bonus official undub disc.
august:
everyone loves yoshi's island but i missed out on the snes library back when. gonna play this and mario world sometime. new super luigi u is a weird retail release i had to get and wonderful 101 is up once i'm done with rome ii.
september (wip):
idgaf about paper boxes but dynasty warriors advance was cheap and factory sealed (don't want to keep anything sealed on the shelf tho, that just sets a REALLY bad precedent) and i just tried the rom out and liked it. operation winback is supposed to have been an inspiration source for resident evil 4's mechanics, and someone here mentioned megaman x command mission the other day so i went and picked up the last copy in stock from a net retailer for about $15. NTSC-U/C ver is supposed to have progressive scan tho but i'll live with this.
