Pretty good show, the English dub will be coming soon as well. The one thing that is holding me back from signing up for Loot Crate is that there are far too many shows or games that I have no interest, so I would be in fear of the day I receive a bunch of Dr. Who or Superman crap at my doorstep. :D
Pickups for this month so far
My most anticipated game of the entire year, sadly I haven't had much time to play it yet. Also some Dark Souls shirts of Solaire and Sif.
And MGSV: Ground Zeros, House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return, and Halo Wars
Megatron:
So I am really spoiled and have 3 awesome thrift stores around me, so I basically get stuff every week. This is a lot of weeks worth of stuff that I haven't gotten around to casing and/or shelving yet.
Lot of GB/GG/GBA games, $1 each from Thrift Store
Beauty & the Beast Board Game
Lion King
The Grinch
Spot
Solar Striker
Casino Fun Pack
Sonic Advance
Scooby Doo Mystery Mayhem
NES games from local game store:
Tale Spin - $6
Darkwing Duck - $20
Rockin' Kats - $20
2 GBA SP, Blue DS Lite, Black DSi. All have some scratches, wear, but play fine. All came with chargers - from local thrift
Silver GBA SP - $4
Black GBA SP - $5
Blue DS lite - $5
Black DSi - $7
Complete Gamecube and N64. $15 each, came with all cables and 2 controllers each. N64 came with expansion pack - from local Thrift
Godwill had a 50% off electronics sale
PS1 controller - $3.50
Wii Motion Plus - $1.50
Wii U Pro 3rd Party new in box - $8
Gamecube wheel - $5 from game store
Shoot out 97 - new and sealed - $1 from thrift
Splinter Cell 3 - $3, manual is pretty worn, from thrift
Metro Last light - $8.99 from Gamefly
Lost Planet 3 - $3.99 from Gamefly (had $5 coupon)
Deadly Premonition Director's Cut - $20 from Walmart, and a GREAT game if you 're into so bad it;s good territory. Xbox 360 version is probably a little better, though
From local game store,
Tomb Raider - $25 used
MGS V Ground 0s - $22 used (I coun't justify a full price, new purchase of this. Didn't want Konami to get the money for such a short, short demo)
Finally, the Everdrive N8 - $125 from Retrogate. I love collecting my NES games, but this way I can play some of those hacks and homebrews BEFORE I shell out $30 or $40 each.

Lucky. I have over a dozen within 5 miles but Seattle is tough to get good stuff. They put a lot of games that are non sports on there websites for sale or people bring them to the shit load of independent game stores around here.
Megatron:
Yeah, I live in a suburb of DC, and one of the richest counties in the country is right next door. My guess is that they just donate stuff when their kids go to college, since most of it is pretty old. That said, the store is idiotic with their pricing. They judge all games the same based on system. Which definitely works for me. Madden 04 on PS2? $6 because it's a PS2 game. Mega Man Legends 2 on PS1 or Paper Mario on N64? $1 because they're old and no one will want it. There's at least one other person on here who goes there, as we have seen each others posts and commented.
