I've seen those things on clearance at Target for like 8 bucks :/


• The wonderswans came with a large lot for the business, but I don't do anything with B&W Swans, so they're going in the collection.

• Red Target GBA has been on my want list for a while and I just picked up a few for the business, so I thought I'd just keep one for myself.

• Midnight GBA actually belonged to a long time customer, but he saw something on the site (GBA-wise) recently that he wanted more, so I got this back as a trade.  It's a Japan-only TrU exclusive color.

Ya, I got my Link's Crossbow Training zapper for $4 at a garage sale, it was in the box but didn't have the game. It did however have a white nunchuck in it.
I then found a decent copy of Link's Crossbow Training at a pawnshop for $2. $6 for a now CIB LCT and a nunchuck was a great deal lol.

@Wiggy
That's a nice pickup man! Really Diggin the 2 GBAs.

Zelda The Wind Waker HD


Mario Kart Wii for my new wii wheel


Madden 13


regarding the Wii Zapper, I am happy for everyone that has low-cost purchases but I do not like buying certain things that are used. I do not want to play with a dirty zapper. former owner could've scratched his bum, picked his nose, then played with the zapper. yik. LOL I like to buy things new and unopened. I will buy books/magazines like strategy guides because i do not need to touch them very often. anyway, all new at discounted prices. I agree that zapper should be cheaper but $20 is not much.

i now have 11 games for my Wii U  :)

Just picked up my pre-order of the Ltd. edition of Windwaker HD

Glad I pre-ordered because ebay auctions for this one are pretty expensive right now.

Also you've got A-holes like this guy in my city who buy up all the copies and attempt to gouge.

I also got the LE of Wind Waker at Gamestop, funny thing is I had to wait for a while at the store as another customer was basically trying to bribe the employee for the only LE copy of WW, which was my copy. I loved ruining her hopes of getting the statue once she saw the employee ringing it up for me.  ;D

I also picked up Pilotwings Resort, Killzone 3, Enslaved: OttW, and L.A. Noire for $4.50 each with Gamestop's Buy 2 for $10 deal. Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper was got for $15new at Bestbuy.

Also preordered Dark Souls 2 CE (Only game I am looking forward to in the future other than MGS V.)

I've come to proclaim my jealousy!

Wiggy - I'll be forever envious of your awesome dedication to collecting Nintendo handhelds! I'm currently on the hunt for a reasonable priced, near new boxed Graphite AGS-101.

taigr81m - I'm happy to see another person who owns more than three Wii U games! My library is also up to 11 now, and includes ACIII, Batman: AC, COD:BlOps II, Darksiders II, Lego City, Need for Speed: MW, Mario Bros. U, Luigi U, Nintendoland, Pikmin 3, Wonderful 101.

MaSHoe and mojoeskateco - I've gotta say, I do like the look of that WW LE, specifically the box itself. Quite cool. Didn't bother to preorder one myself though, as it would have required actually going into a GameStop. And to hell with those hoarders/gougers. They can suck it!

Picked up my collectors edition today as well. Lucked out too. When I pre ordered my copy shortly after it was available, they said there was nothing in their systems of a collectors edition. Then when I found out they actually had a collectors edition available, the pre orders were filled! Fuck. Anyway, they ended up having some extra copies for whatever reason so I was able to get one for myself, and grabbed one for my girlfriend as a Christmas gift. Told her I the one I got for myself was the last one... ;)

@Retro Deckades
Nice collection  :) I like the Wii U system, especially the GamePad. I hope that they make more games this year. I do not have Mario Bros U yet, although I do have Luigi U. I am disappointed that the Luigi U has a time limit. damnit! I hate time limit games. I am still happy o have it in my collection.

by the way, I have not purchased a new system since N64 and PS2. The Wii U is now my newest console. I have not played ANY of the Pikmin games. I am wondering what they could be compared with? Pikmin looks interesting.


@Arseen
I have the bottom of the cover cleaned. I just finished removing the text today. I still have to restore the top-left of the cover to finish removing the Nipponese text/logo.
