Got my PS4 in today, must say it's a gorgeous system, must have spent 20 mins just admiring it before turning it on. Now if someone could go put out the fire at Sony's PSN servers that would be great

Not picking up a PS4 or Xbox One so I was focusing on other pick ups.  Very proud of this one.  Waited a long time and when it arrived it looked better than the picture on ebay, it is almost flawless!  Got it in a lot with the other 3 TMNT games for $99.  So either break it down $25 a piece or about $50 for 1-3 and $50 for this one.  Either way, I thought it was a good deal  ;D

Not gonna lie...  A bit jealous of the PS4s ya'll are posting.  Then I remember that I have a stack of PS3 games to play yet, so it's all good.  :D

Picked this up for $10 in a craigslist deal today. Proud of how the xbox collection has grown in a year.



Got this bundle from amazon today. Flipped it at gamestop for $660. I spent $539 so it wasn't really worth the time and effort, but I was stressing out about not being able to recoup my money on this after getting no hits on craigslist posted at $600. I'm just relieved to be rid of the thing. It was all I could do to keep from breaking the seal and playing.

Guy at gamestop 'accidentally' gave me $560. As I started to count money the other guy volunteers to count the money because he's "really good at it". Everyone got real quiet when I kept counting. Whole thing was weird. I'm probably not going to try flipping anymore launch consoles after this experience.



Found this kiosk outside Gamestop. This thing was a beast to load in and out of my car, but I did it. I might trade it to someone tomorrow for, what else... more videogames :D



I would keep it but I don't have a ps3 or any space for this whatsoever

I'm about to start a second job, so maybe I can afford to do that at some point soon  :P
I'll just be glad when I'm not working the graveyard shift anymore.

I was at a thrift shop near me, which usually has nothing worth mentioning.  But on my way out the door I noticed this behind the register:





A complete, in box model 2 genesis.  Everything is there, including the paperwork which was never opened.  This system is definitely not brand new, but it looks rarely used, as there isn't a mark on the system itself, and the controller feels right out of the package.  The only reason I know it's been used are the wires have been taken out and the controller has some finger print residue.   
The box is nice to have , but kinda beat up on the sides.  As seen in one side, there is a lot of tape and ripped cardboard.  Front and back are pretty damn nice, though.
It also has a sealed, 3rd party super pad inside. 

All in all not bad for a whopping $10.

They also had Monster Hunter 3 for Wii for $2.  Case, but no manual.

Awesome find Megatron

Got these in the mail and added the Super Nintendo power adapter to my boxed SNES to make it complete. Yay



Traded a PS3 Kiosk for some games today. I'm probably happiest about the fact that a perfectly good kiosk didn't get destroyed and tossed into a landfill. I'm glad it will be played with by a gamer.

The deal was a modded xbox with a ton of retro game emulators, Castevania Bloodlines, and MegaManX in exchange for the kiosk. It was a good trade for us both. Already have MMX so I'll use it for sale or future trade.



Have a modded wii already, but I'm really digging having the xbox as another option to play the games I can't afford.



Got this at walmart.I feel a compulsion to leave it wrapped in plastic, even though a part of me feels like holding onto sealed games is sort of dumb.

The Xbox is a far better Emu machine anyway.  Good to have one in the stable ;)

If you are really wanting to know where I got the Mother 3 in English, just send me a PM because I can't say on the boards.
