Well Switch does come with the Joy-Con middle thingie.
I turns the Joy-Cons in to decent Pro Controller replacement.

I would call it an "alternative" rather than a "replacement" since it's not as comfortable and doesn't have a proper d-pad like the Pro Controller. 
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

That's what I meant :P
Thank you for ridiculing non-native English speaker. :'(

It seems to be that time of the year again when Target starts to clearance out stuff all over the store.  Only found a few games, but there was a ton of other misc gaming related stuff including Switch controllers that were marked down, so check out your local Targets if you have them.






I also got my SNES Anthology to go with my PS1 anthology.  I got this book a few weeks ago, but didn't get a chance to post a picture.  This was another Kickstarter book.

Not a pickup, but it's too funny not to share.  With all of the printing that many of us do, I figured most could relate.

It’s alwaus funny to me how different targets have such different clearance methods.

I grabbed bomberman as well (pithy selection at mine too), but it was marked as “was $19.99, now $9.99”


So did anyone else get a switch lite?  I only bought one because I needed it for creating and taking pics of displays for RCG.  Haven’t had a chance to try it yet. Sort of avoiding it because of the headache involved with moving save files, since they don’t save to the carts themselves >:(



Also grabbed a genesis mini. It’s quite a nice piece of hardware. Actual working cartridge bay doors, a removable expansion port, the volume knobs actually slides. Pretty impressive among all the mini consoles.

I also grabbed a Super Bomberman R on clearance from Target.  Mine was $6 though.

Here are my pickups from the weekend. The Game Gear games were stupid cheap so I figured why not pick them up as you don't see boxed games all that often (and 2 are factory sealed).  TRAG and Blender Bros were both marked way under eBay prices so they were welcome finds. Everything else was from a toy show yesterday.  The one bag is just a bunch of manuals / game inserts and the other bag was marked as various 80's figures.  I picked it up mostly for the 2 Battle Beasts in it.  Also grabbed a "budget He-Man" and a nice vintage Diecast Voltron. Stubbs and Flicky are both missing the manuals but were both good prices so I couldn't pass them up.

This image didn't show up on my phone for some reason, but does on my desktop.

LOL!  Though I've always been able to tell the printer to "print anyway" when I receive this sort of message.

Ugh. My printer won't even scan documents when it's low on ink.  >:(
