July Pick ups. What cool stuff have you been buying?

Games.

The slip cover on Bloodstain is just awful.  SO flimsy and cheap, it fell like a foot on carpet and ripped.  it doesnt even firt the case properly as its just slightly to large.






Not games. 

New .22 from H&K

I thought the Bloodstained slip case was pretty crappy too.  Fortunately, the game has been pretty fun, which is most important.

especially for 60 dollars if retail is 39.99... #butraped

The price isn't the problem.  People keep complaining about the price, but that's not how Kickstarters work.  There is no guarantee that the final product will be the same price, or that the final product will even happen.  All Kickstarters are a risk.  Besides, you can't compare the price to retail since backers received additional content.

This!  You are funding the creation of the game, not just buying a retail copy.  Backers also got Curse of the Moon for free not to mention the upcoming DLC for free while it will be paid DLC for non-backers.  I bought in at the $100 level and have no regrets on that price since it's a quality game that I helped get made (and my names in the credits).

We do a lot of work with MegaCat Studios. He sent over a huge stack of games to help get me inspired for upcoming projects.



I know PCEworks isn’t loved by all, but I really dig his stuff. We’ve had an ongoing trade for a long time now, and these are the latest arrivals. Plus R-Type from Strictly Limited and Torn from amazon.

Some pick ups from the weekend.  Game Tengoku also came in from LRG.

I ordered a stack of console box protectors.  I have used these for special games/deluxe editions in the past (amiibo, Windwaker HD Ganon box, Majora's Mask Skull Kid figure, etc) and they have always impressed me.  I decided to finally order them for consoles.  I recently won a near mint in box original NES with a beautiful box and didn't want it to get all banged up.






The site I used offers better value with the more you buy (since it saves on the shiiping).  Sadly, not all console box sizes are available, so I wasn't able to case up everything.  I ended up ordering a set of 10 box protectors (the best value) and opted for the NES, SNES, N64, Funtastic N64, PS1, Gamecube, Sega Genesis, Wii, Wii U, ...and the Switch    because it was the only other box I had which has a case available. They add a small bit of size, but overall I am really happy with the protection.  These aren't bulletproof by any means, but they are surprisingly thick and heavy.

Some Half Price Books gets.

Hatsune Miku suprised trhe hell out of me to find there.


More Silent Hill stuff to add to my addiction and goal.  Already own the strategy guide for the first game but this one is in such better condition.

That sucks :/  I can't believe how much the price shot up in the last couple years.  This one has some light scratches but should be fine.  It was CIB and pretty cheap.
