I didn't know that about the controller needing to be plugged in.  Not that I imagine it wouldn't be, but it's definitely good to know. 
I actually went on eBay and ordered OEM rf cable and ac adapter.  I did the same thing for the JVC X'Eye.  I'm pretty paranoid when it comes to power adapters. 
And I will definitely be getting that Jag Everdrive.  The one game I want a physical copy of (Alien vs Predator) I just found on pricecharting store for the game, manual and overlays for $35.  I'm actually really looking forward to playing this thing. 

I actually have AvP complete (game, box, manual, all 3 inlays).  It's ok......  It hasn't aged well. 

Doom is great, despite missing music
Flip Out is an excellent puzzle game and a hidden gem
Power Drive Rally is also sort of a hidden gem (I never hear anyone talk about it)
Tempest 2000 is also a lot of fun (everyone talks about it, but it lives up to the hype)
Lots of other good games despite its small library.  Youtube is a good source for other good games.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

Haven't posted any pickups in a while. Figured I'd share a couple of my most recents:

Picked up the PS4 physical copy of Hyper Light Drifter from I am 8Bit and hard copy of I am Setsuna for the Switch.



And picked up a Zero Suit Samus Figma. She'll stand nicely next to my Suited Samus Figma I bought a few years back!

You're more than welcome, bro!  Enjoy :)

Bloodborne was a gift from a friend, Yooka and the BotW guide were part of an amazon purchase, the rest are target clearance.  I stop at this Targer every weekday after dropping my son off at school.  They don't even have a spot for the NES classic and never have.  I'm not convinced that they EVER had any.  I thought I might get lucky on my birthday, but at least they had a decent selection of clearance stuff today  :-\

Happy birthday mate!

That payday cover is screaming for a photoshop with the middle finger extended.

Damn wiggy you have some good stores near you. The stores near me still think Tri-Force Heroes is a $40 game.

The funny thing is that they could never sell the game with that cover here in the US because it would be too offensive.  The violence and murders in the game is no problem, but someone flipping the bird on the cover would be too much.

Yep, pretty much.

Blow someone's head off, no problem.  Show some nudity and everyone looses their minds.

This beast of a book finally came in!
It is seriously the size on an old encyclopedia.



Melee isn't new, I just used the nearest case for size comparison.  Size aside, it really is a beautiful book.  Given I paid more for this guide than I did my copy of the game, I suppose it better be.
