I was buying up all the RPGs I could. Its what most of my collection is. But I looked at my wall of games and saw 100s of games I had NO intention of playing, and looked into games to find out I had bought several that I KNOW I would not enjoy.

 I played .Hack.....it was ok....but I hate the fake online server thing....so I sold all 7.

I dont like first person step by step dungeon crawling....so all 4 Etrian Odyssey games went too.

 Pokemon went bye bye as well. I like equipping my heroes with equipment and weaponry.

I admire that. I did pretty much the same with a bunch of games I never played. From games like xenosaga 1-3 to all the final fantasy games I owned minus 7. Basically anything I don't intend to pick up and play through again was sold.

I don't have a PS4, but for 20$ this wasn't a bad deal.

Assassin's Creed 4

My order of the Koopa figure from Walmart just got some weird:
"Replacement Notice for Your Recent Walmart.com Order"
I'm guessing they lost my order?

Yeah be careful with those bootlegs Larry. I was lucky enough to find the Japanese versions of those Mario figures two years ago, they have better paint jobs, but the American Global Holdings version are alright. If you need help finding figures online I can give you a list of websites I frequent if you are getting into video game memorabilia  collecting.

That would be nice, I need Goomba, and DK. Maybe Fire Mario/ Luigi. I can get Peach from Toys R Us. I have Mario, Luigi, Yoshi and Toad from the 2009 Popco line.

Back from vacation!  ;D

I've been hunting PS2 games like crazy with Gamestop dumping their inventory. Over the last week I've picked up these.





I averaged about one dollar per game.

Plus some other stuff.



Patapon was just over $2 complete, and about $5 for Ygddra Union disc only.



Rayman 3D was $5 at Big Lots.



And I finally caved and picked up Mike Tyson's Punch Out from eBay. $16 after shipping.

More pick ups:



So quite a lot of "filler" stuff, but all brand new and all for $5 each.

Most surprising thing for me was that Order Up!! came with a Club Nintendo card, for 250 points. To put that in perspective, Super Mario 3D World, Wind Waker HD, Super Mario 3D Land etc, only gave me 200 points.

And disappointingly, Four Swords isn't on the Australia eShop.

A guy at work who was bragging about buying it and beating it - the day of buying it, if you believe him. He said he was going to take it back to Gamestop, but me and my shiny pile of 5$ bills was more compelling, I guess :P

Just raided the last Gamestop in my area that still had PS2 games. Another 41 games for only $21.

Also found a used Sony Dualshock 4 charger for $23.  ;D
